Rican children entered JuniorE
High School 211 in Brooklyn's

However, white parents con-

Airs tandai
WASHINGTON OP) - The U.S.
Court of Appeals here yesterday
affirmed a lower court decision
forbidding any significant air pol-
lution in regions where the air
is still pure.
The action left the U.S. En-
vironmental Protection Agency
(EPA) under orders to attach
this. non-degradation requirement
to all state plans for meeting na-
tional air quality standards.
There was no immediate word
whether EPA would appeal to
the Supreme Court.
The brief ruling by the Ap-
peals Court, issued without fur-
ther explanation, upheld the ma-
jor victory won earlier by t h e

The community wide boycott by
white parents has kept more than
9,000 pupils out of classes and
had forced the closing of six area
schools on Monday.
Until yesterday teachers at
Junior High School 211 had been
bused to the school from a nearby
police station.,
A previous attempt to enroll the'
32 students resulted in a three day
take-over of the school by white
parents.
A possible solution to the present
boycott, according to Board of
I GHT!
Education officials, is to assurej
the Canarsie parents that the racial
balance of the school would not
tip. In return they would be ex-
pected to end their organized op-
position of the enrollment of the
32 Browsville pupils.

Reefer Madness
King Kong Duplex
Showing Tonight
& Tomorrow
In a unique innovation in campus
film showing, Friends of Newsreel will
show a bizarre 1936 anti-marijuana
film, "Reefer Madness," with a short
film by the Fireside Theater, side-by-
side with a separate showing of the
horror-humor classic "King Kong" to-
night and tomorrow in Auditoriums
3 & 4 of the Modern Languages Build-
ing. Proceedings will be further en-
livened by a live stage skit with
"Kong," billed as "a personal appear-
ance by King Kong and his Gorrillas."
According to Glen Alivord, a spokes-
man for the student community or-
ganization, the unique duplex film
showing was occasioned by the non-
delivery of the film "Dracula," which
was to have been double-billed with
"King Kong" at $1.50 last Tuesday
