A Supreme Court decision to
take its first hard look at po-
litical gerrymandering in ID
years gave heart today to cities
which have long protested rural
domination of State Legisla-
lures.
Gerrymandering is the set
ting of political boundaries,
normally by State Legislatures,
to the advantage of one group
or. party. The effect is achieved
in many States by the refusal
of the Legislature to reappor-
ton its membership according
to the population. enabling
farm districts to control taxes
and spending in a way that
often works to the disadvan-
tage of cities.
The Supreme Court will hear
the complaint of a group OF
city jewellers in Tennessee
which hasn't reapportioned its
Legislature since 1901 despite
a provision in the State Con-
stitution that it must do SO
every 10 years.
Abuses Cited
The National Institute OF
Municipal Law Officers, which
Joined in urging Supreme Court
review of the case, maintains
a dossier of what it regards as
some of the more fragrant
abuses against cities by rural
controlled Legislatures.
Philadelphia contributes more
than $40 million annually to
State road taxes and gets back
only So million. Denver is al
lotted only $2.3 million in State
school aid for its 10000 school
children. while semi-rural JEFF

Stonehom May Settle
Rigney's Stotus Today

SAN FRANCISCO. June Ia
(AP).-An answer on Bill Rig
ney'S Shaky status as manager
Of the San Francisco Giants
was expected today from Owner
Horace Stoneham.
Amid reports the slim skipper
would be fired, Stoneham few
here last night from Phoenix
where he told newsmen:
I'D rather not deny or con-
firm right now whether a
change will be made in the
Giants managership."
Stoneham's statement, re-
fusing to declare confidence in
the 41-year-old pilot, followed
a sudden eruption of printed
reports that Rigney would be
fired.
The wide speculation on his
custer followed four straight
defeats-three by league-lead-
ing Pittsburgh-which dropped
the highly rated Giants well
back in second place. The
Giants now trail Pittsburgh by
four games.
A statement seemed neces-
sary quickly to clear uncer-
tainties for Rigney and the
players.
Conference Called
Such a statement was ex-
pected to follow a conference
today between Stoneham and
Vice President Club Feeney.
Rigny said the news reports
were the first word he has had
that his job is in jeopardy in
his fifth season as Giant man.

First I've heard of it," Bill
declared. II haven't talked to
Horace or anyone.
I'll just have to wait and
see. But it's all part of our
business, like winning or los

The Giant players, declaring
themselves surprised with the
sudden word of Rigney's pos
sible departure, broke out of
their discouraging slump last
night with a 7-3 victory over
Philadelphia.
