Seven Judges Hear Integration Appeal Little Rock School Hearing On Today ST. LOUIS (UPD — All seven judges of the U.S. Court of Appeals today gathered to hear an appeal to continue integration at Little Rock's strife-torn Central High School. The dramatic hearing followed by less than a week the landslide primary election victory- of Arkansas Gov. Orval Faubus, interpreted by pro-segregationists as a mandate to halt integration of the school. Chief Judge Archibald K. Gardner called for the “en banc” hearing of the appeal from a District Court order delaying Integration at Central High. It was only the second time in 30 years that the entire sevenjudge panel gathered to hear a case. The hearing was expected to be completed today and a ruling of th Appellate Court is expected before the opening of the school in September. Both sides are alowed one hour to present their arguments, but the time may be extended upon request for counsel for either side. Last fall, President Eisenhower ordered federal troops to Little Rock to enforce a District Court t integration order which permitted j nine Negro students to enter Cen-■ tral High School. On April 26 of this year, the ’ Appelate Court upheld a ruling i of U.S. District Judge Ronald N. D.avies preventing Faubus and; Arkansas National Guard officers | from barring the school to Negro ! students. This summer, however. U.S. * District Judge Harry J. Lemley-of ■ Arkansas granted a request by the | Little Rock Board of Education 1 to delay integration until 1961 to allow ‘‘a peaceful interlude.”

Divorcee Says Teel Shooting Accidental Indianapolis Woman Admits To Shooting INDIANAPOLIS (UPD—A criminal lawyer who may defend the alleged killer of a wealthy drug firm executive said today that the divorcee accused of the slaying may have a "pretty good case” on a self-defense plea. Frank Symnes, an Indianapolis attorney, made the statement after visiting Mrs. Connie Nicholas, 42, for about an hour Sunday afternoon as she recovered in a hospital from an apparent suicide attempt. Symmes based his self-defense statement on Mrs. Nicholas’ story that Forrest Teql, 54, executive vice president of Eli Lilly & Co., struck and beat her before she shot him in his white Cadillac. Mrs. Nicholes’ face was puffed and her eye bruised and an eye specialist was called to determine the extent of the injury, which she said she received in a fight with Teel -over her gtfn. Symmes was Mrs. Nicholas’ only visitor Sunday and later he said he was uncertain if he would be able to take the case because of a ful schedule. With his father, Frank A. Sy mines, the attorney has taken the defense in a number of major criminal cases in the state. One of the latest was the defense of former Indiana highway Chairman Virgil (Red) Smith who is free on bond after conviction in Indiana’s 1 highway scandals. "I told Mrs. Nicholas that if Dad and I found it impossible to defend her in court, we would certainly recommend a good criminal man to represent her,” Symmes said. Mrs. Nicholas was in a coma for 60 hours before regaining consciousness Saturday afternoon to relate a lurid story of her longtime affair with Teel. She told police and newsmen the shooting was accidental and occurred while they argued over Teel’s affections for a younger woman. Mrs. Nicholas said she had been; meeting secretly with the handsome executive for at least 10 years unknown to Teel’s wife. She said she w’aited for Teel outside the younger woman’s apartment early Thursday and pleaded with him to return to her. During the. violent quarrel, she said. Teel struck her. “It was the first time he had ever struck me.” she said. Mrs. Nicholas said she puled a gun from her handbag “to scare him" ind the shooting occurred during k tussle for the gun. Mrs. Nicholas was removed from the critical list today at General Hospital but a spokesman gave no indication whether she will be able to appear for a preliminary hearing Thursday in municipal court. Police Homicide Capt. Michael Smiley said he would confer with Prosecutor John Tinder after the Thursday hearing. For serious charges such as murder, municipal court actions usually result in binding the defendant over to a grand jury. Earlier, Smiley indicated arraignment of Mrs. Nicholas would come in about a week if she is sufficiently recovered. The divorcee’s physician said that he has called in specialists to aid him in treatment of eye and arm injuries which Mrs. Nicholas told reporters were received in a struggle with Teel

over the gun. An qye specialist already has examined the patient and an effort to determine the extent of the arm injury was to be made today.
