WASHINGTON UP) - The Su-
preme Court ruled unanimously
yesterday that defendants have
the right to ask jurors whether
they are racially prejudiced.
However, the court refused to
extend that right to questions
about other forms of prejudice.
The ruling reversed the drug
conviction of a South Carolina civil
rights leader, Gene Ham, who was
convicted of possessing marijuana
and sentenced to 18 months in
jail.
Ham contended his rights were
violated because the trial judge re-
fused to ask the jurors if they were
prejudiced against Negroes and
whether they were prejudiced
against people who wore beards.
The Supreme Court, in an opin-
ion written by Justice William
Rehnquist, said the Constitution
gave the defendant the right to ask

judice. But the high court said the
Constitution did not give defend-
ants the right to ask if the jurors
were prejudiced against beards.
Justices Thurgood Marshall and
William Douglas dissented from
the second ruling. Douglas said it
was an abuse of discretion for the
trial judge to refuse questions "by
which prospective jurors preju-
diced to hair growth could have
been explored."
"Nothing is more indicative of
the importance currently being at-
tached to hair growth by the gen-
eral populace than the barrage of
cases reaching the courts evidenc-
ing the attempt by one segment
of society officially to control the
plumage of another," Douglas
said.
