Hard on the heels of Mayor dcLcsscps Morrison's nation ally televised blast at upstate "demagogues," a move was undertaken to fill chartered buses with black-clad children and go to the Capitol in Ba ton Rouge. The black attire was sug gested "as a symbol of mourn ing for the two schools and state sovereignty." The legis lature Wednesday reconvenes its special session to fight In tegration. Cily Gets Breather A public school vacation this week is giving the city a breather while it awaits a rul ing from three federal judges on a motion by the local school board that Integration be discontinued In the best In terest of all concerned. ' One of the Judges on the panel handed -down the order under which four six-year-old Negro girls were placed In two schools where formerly only whites attended, touch ing off waves of disorder. Few Incidents ' Meanwhile police reported the city relatively calm through the night except for a few apparently racial inci dents. In one, a group of Ne groes shot at some white teen agers with a pistol and shot gun but missed. A 17-year-old Negro, felled by police after he slashed a 7-yenr-old white boy and raved against whites, died Monday of a wound in the head. The white child was re ported In good condition shortly after the knifing Sul urtlay. , Morrison, Interviewed on a news panel show, said city nollce needed no outside help in keeping the lid on any vi olence. He claimed racial rowdyism was Inspired by . "outside agitators. The mayor said he would not welcome statements from Well ILLCKEST Bill Driscoll, North Phoenix Rod either President Elsenhower or President-elect Kennedy. Statements from them asking residents to proceed with in tegration might have an ad verse effect, he said. Kennedy turned down a re quest by the state legislature that he make his views on the school crisis public, An aide Stocks Advance in Routine Trading; Most Gains Minor New York WPil Stocks stretched their advance In routine trading today, but the majority of gains were minor.

Bll CAMP FIRE LEADER DIES New York-IUPD-Mrs. R. E Wallace, nationally known for her work during 26 years on the national staff of the Camp Fire Girls before her retirement in 1949 died Mon day. 6162 or SP 2-71 11 Representatives In Legislature Claimed Lacking Washington tUPD State gov ernments across , the nation were deeply concerned today with a Supreme Court tight by some Tennesseeans who sued to get a better break lor city voters in the state legis lature. The complainants Included Mayor Ben West of Nashville. They said voters in heavily populated city districts don't have enough representatives In the legislature while resi dents of rural areas have too many. They want a realign ment to give city voters more of a voice in state affairs. The Supreme Court agreed Monday to look into the situ ation. The high court turned its back on a policy enunci ated in 1948 that apottion ment cases are "political" and thus outside its province. The far-reaching dispute came to the court In a term already replete with signifi cant cases. Arguments will not be heard until spring, probably In April. The National Institute of Municipal Law Offices, which urged the Supreme Court to hear the case, said "the mu nicipality of I960 is forced to function in a horse and buggy environment where there is little political recognition of the heavy demands of an ur ban population." Gerrymandering Discussed Unfair alignment of voting districts, known as gerryman dering, also was the subject of discussion a week ago when the high court ordered trial of a Tuskegee, Ala., case. There the state legislature had redrawn the city's boun daries and kept out all but a handful of Negro voters. No racial issue was In volved in the Tennessee case.

McKinney Author Of Magazine Article Ashland Dr. William Mark McKinney, professor of social science at Southern Oregon college, has been notified that his article, "Geography and the Social Sciences A New Approach", will appear in (he "Journal of Geog raphy," the official journal of the National Council of Geo graphic Education. The theme of Dr. McKin ey's article deals with the re lation of geography to social science. Previous attempts to relate geography to social sciences have overlooked cer tain points. According to Dr. McKinney, social sciences have been in fluenced by two fields, that of geography and physiology. Prior to World War I geog raphy was heavily stressed, but subsequently a physiol ogical influence all but drowned out geographical content in social science re search. There are recent Indications that this cycle is nearing its end and that a more balanced period may be starting fn the social sciences.
