The Supreme Court today

in the minority.

cases. but Is significant for

He said the recognition Of

the plans in today's cases sis
no less unconstitutional" than
the use Of race for original

Justice Clark said the high
court is mot unmindful of the
deep-rooted problems involved
in school desegregation.
! Concepts Altered
He said that now, eight years
! after the school desegregation
order, the context Gin which
we must apply (the ruling)
to plans for desegregation has
been significantly altered.
THE transfer provisions here
cannot be deemed to be rea-
sonably designed to meet legiti-

Court indicated that it would

VATICAN CITY, June a.
The death Of any Pope is q
vast event which grips the
world. But the slow passing
of Pope John XIII is like
none other in the spontaneous
and personal lamentation it
has inspired.
Pope John, In his last agony,
Is getting back in full measure
all the compassion he lavished
on the world during his brief
pontificate. In less than five
years in the chair Of st. Peter
he became the worlds favorite
human being.
If he is spending his little
strength in comforting those
around him and sending end
less benedictions, ne is in q
sense making it harder. For
every report of some small or
large concern he expresses only
reminds the sorrowing onlook-
ers that there never was such
a human Pope and may never
be again.
