On Monday, November 5, the
U. S. Supreme Court is scheduled
to begin hearing oral argumen
on seven crucial race relations
cases which grew out of the south
ern Sit-in movement.
The cases involve demonstrations
by Negro youths from six south
Aern states = Alabama, North Caro-
lima, South Carolina, Georgia, Lou
isiana and Maryland. They will be
heard successfully for ten hours,
with argument expected to con-
clude on Wednesday.
Jack Greenberg, Director-Coun-
sci of the NAACP Legal Defense
and Educational Fund, said the
arguments involve the most i'm
portant civil rights issues since
of 1854
These cases involve govern
mental enforcement of racial dis
elimination, and may well influ-
ence the future course of protest
demonstrations against such dis
elimination, Greenberg added.
Approximately 5000 Negro and
white students are still under con-
viction in the south for demon
Strations of the type which the
Court will hear this week. The
NAACP Legal Defense Fund is
appealing all the cases now pend
ing at various stages in southern
state courts.
The Solicitor General of the
United States Justice Department
will have an hour of argument in
support of the petitioners (NAA-
CP) position in the cases as a
Friend of the Court
In December. the Supreme Court
will hear an appeal in Edwards
V. South Carolina, similar pro-
test case involving convictions of
1877 Negro youths for marching on
the statehouse grounds in Column
bia, S. c.
In December, 1861, the Supreme
Court revised the convictions
of sixteen Negro students convict
ed of breach of the peace" for
sitting in in Baton Rouge, La.
In that case, the only previous
sit-in the Supreme Court has heard.
the court ruled unanimously that
the convictions "are so totally
devoid of evidenciary support as
to render them unconstitutional
under the due process clause of
the 14th Amendment"
CASES TO BE HEARD THIS
WEEK.

lunch counter demonstrations at
a Kress Variety Store in Durham,
NC. on May 6, 1860 by five Negro

''YOu have to be careful what tricks you show
kids on TV," says Mark, whose new weekly
show will appear on ABC this fall. Recently we
shipped the announcer's necktie into shreds,
and magically put it together again. We had to
send letters of apology to swarms of angry
mothers who were trying to glue the old mans
favOrite tie back together again."

'Ievitation is like golf or playing musical
instrument Mark Wilson told me- you've got
to practice, or you'll fall on your face. Both
Mani and Mike help me in the act - SO they

Mike, by the way, was SO disturbed at the
age Of four, when he happened to walk into the
room at the moment his dad was saving his
mother in two, that Mr.. Wilson never again
