none of the three Detroit-only
integration plans submitted to

schools, U.S. District Judge
. Stephen Roth yesterday re-
jected all of the proposals.
The ruling came as testimony

Both the Detroit School Board
and the State Legislature have
submitted metropolitan busing
plans for busing across commun-
ity lines to achieve school deseg-
regation.
Testimony on the three Detroit-
only plans was completed just last

mitted by the Detroit school
board. The other was prepared by
the Detroit chapter of the Na-
tional Association for the Ad-
Press vancement of Colored People
(NAACP), which filed the original
desegration case.
stry While saying that the NAACP
de- plan would accomplish more to-
wards desegration than the two
school board proposals, the judge
declared the plan too expensive
and long-range to be practical for

black majorities in virtually all
Detroit schools "thereby increas-
ing the flight of whites from the
Y city and the system."

cu- al consent.
