As for Wallace himself, Kennedy said. “I cannot believe that the governor wants us to send federal troops there, I cannot believe he wants us to send Federal marshals there, and I cannot believe he would not prefer to have the people of Alabama govern this matter, accept the order of the court and maintain law and order.”

He said. “I feel th estudents will cooperate with police ” “It’s bound to come sooner or later,”, said Dick Boone of Montgomery, a journalism senior. “The students must work together to make sure it comes off without violence.” Senior Thomas Maxwell, sched--

set, unswerving, unabashed honesty was what DeFrantz demanded from himself and from everyone with whom he came in contact. His worry was never how poor a man was economically; his undeviating concern was how fundamentally honest he was. All who knew him recognize how you have to look him directly in his eyes; hold up your head and straight-forwardly answer “yes” or “no” to his questions (and thev can be numerous and punctuating.) He wanted to live in and make a community in which relationships were just as clearly honest, above-hoard and

sincere.

No action was taken by the court on the applications of the other three Negroes. They include Sandy English, 21, Birmingham, and Jimmy A. Hood, 20, East Gadsden, both of whom seek to attend the university at Tuscaloosa. Marvin P. Carroll, a 27-year-old electronics engineer for the Army Missile Command at Huntsville, the fifth student involved, seeks to enroll in a night class at

the Huntsville branch.

Hood is now enrolled at Clark College, a predominantly Negro in-

The university is also holding up approval of Carroll’s application

Christenberry.

The fifth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruling came in suits filed by two integration leaders seeking administration to the Royal Orleans and Sheraton-Charles hotels

here.

The ruling does not order the hotels to admit the Negroes but removes the Louisiana ban against the mixing. Wisdom’s and Christenberry’s majority opinion termed the statue a violation of the equal protection clause of the U.S. Constitution, in that it discriminates against Negroes. They noted in their opinion that the applicability of the equal protection clause to hotels and similar facilities “is certain to suggest new and now only dimly discernible questions having far-reaching legal and social consequences.” West, on the other hand, held in his concurring opinion that the statute is unconstitutional because it constitutes unreasonable interference by the state in the affairs of a private business. The suits were filed by Mrs. Daisy Bates of Little Rock, Ark.,
