14 THE Editions COURIER SATURDAY, JUNE 7, 1975 I Full-scale desegregation for fall isn't anticipated By LINDA STAHL Courier-Journal Staff Writer Attorneys in the Louisville-Jefferson County school desegregation case said yesterday that U.S. District Judge James F. Gordon apparently isn't planning to order implementation of a full desegregation plan for this fall. However, they reported after a pretrial conference with Gordon that there was extensive discussion by Gordon about the possibility of ordering partial desegregation for the coming school year with full-scale implementation in the 1976-77 school year. The attorneys also said that Gordon intends to give the civil lawyers in the case the opportunity to ask a higher court to force Gordon to act more quickly than he plans.

The conference, which lasted more than two hours, took place behind closed doors in the judge's chambers in Louisville. As attorneys emerged from the meeting, several said they felt limited in what they could discuss publicly because of instructions from Gordon. However, some lawyers said Gordon will issue an order, hearings begin Aug. 4 on what kind of probably early, next week, calling for desegregation plan to implement in local schools. Some lawyers said the hearing date, if ordered by Gordon, would come too late in the summer to start full-scale desegregation when school opens Sept.

4. Attorneys said it was understood that Robert A. Sedler, chief attorney for the civil-rights groups in the case, will ask the U.S. 6th Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati to order Gordon to begin the hearings July 14 in an attempt to achieve full desegregation by fall. Sedler has held the position that full desegregation should start this fall.

Other key attorneys in the case who participated in the pre-trial conference were Henry A. Triplett, attorney to the former Louisville school board, and John A. Fulton, attorney to the former Jefferson County school board. The thorny legal question of whether a desegregation plan could be implemented while appeals were pending was touched on at the conference, according to one source. Wisconsin tavern now can use word saloon in billings Associated Press MADISON, Wis.

Taverns in Wiscan call themselves saloons under a court ruling being hailed as a victory for both free speech and unpretentious drinkers. Circuit Judge Richard Bardwell Thursday struck down a state law prohibiting drinking establishments from billing themselves as "saloons." His ruling also declared unconstitutional a Madison ordinance against the use of the word. "It is we realized that this is 1975, not 1919," Bardwell said. "There is no longer anything opprobrious about the word saloon." The suit challenging the legal ban against saloons was filed by Jack McManus, an attorney who rents part of a building he owns to a tavern. McManus hailed the decision, saying it "struck a blow for the working man who wants to do his drinking in a place other than a The city attorney's office in Madison fought to keep the ban, arguing that the word saloon had been barred from tavern names in the wake of repeal of prohibition in 1933.

City officials said the law was enacted to protect the image of taverns. They said that to many persons a saloon was a wide-open, swinging-door establishment. "At the time, the word saloon apparently had a connotation which was unappealing to many people," Bardwell said. "While the word may have had a negative connotation 40 years or so ago, I take notice of the fact there no longer exists any negative connotation." Kentucky FFA elects officers The 46th annual convention of the Kentucky Association of the Future Farmers of America (FFA), held at Louisville's Galt House, closed yesterday with the election of new state officers. Steve McCuiston, of Calloway County, is state president.

Other officers are: Tom Stratton, president, Anderson County; Eddie Leach, secretary, Ohio County; Steve Shirley, treasurer, Barren County; Danny Gentry, reporter, Bullitt County; and Dathel Peek, sentinel, Lyon County. However, the source said Gordon didn't make clear whether he thinks a partial desegregation plan could be implemented this fall with appeals still pending. In an order in January, Gordon wrote: "One does not have to be clairvoyant to anticipate that whatever our ruling in this regard may be, there will be appeals by either plaintiffs or defendant boards." He noted then that a new federal law and an order by the U.S. 6th Circuit Court say appeals must be exhausted before a desegregation plan can be put into effect. Anticipated appeals will "of necessity preclude the implementation of our plan for the 1975-76 school year, at least," Gordon wrote.

However, since that time, plaintiffs in the case have argued that pending appeals of a final desegregation plan should date. They said the 6th Circuit have no bearing on its implementation referring to appeals of an "inter-district" desegregation plan, and pointed out that because city and county schools merged April 1 no district line exists to be crossed by busing. Although the city and county school systems merged April 1, both the former city and county boards have permission from Gordon to maintain separate legal identities for the purposes of filing the desegregation plans they support and appealing any desegregation plan they oppose. According to Triplett and Fulton, they will be involved with Sedler in drafting the order that's expected to result from yesterday's proceedings. It is expected to be finished by Tuesday and telephoned to Gordon at his court in Owensboro.

If Gordon approves, he presumably will issue the order immediately, said Triplett. The order is expected to say that five days of hearings will begin Aug. 4 to determine: The merits of a desegregation plan called the Jefferson Educational Trip (JET) plan. Filed by the former county school board, it calls for busing 17,000 students from "home" schools to "away" schools to spend part of the school day in integrated classes if the court it necessary. It proposes teaching deems, dren while they are riding the buses.

Low-key ceremonies commemorate D-Day ARROMANCHES, France (AP)-Low- key ceremonies yesterday commemorated the 31st anniversary of the D-Day landings in France. The ceremonies started in the little village of Hermanville-Sur-Mer yesterday morning, led by Gen. Marcel Bigeard, deputy defense minister, and British Ambassador Sir Edward Tomkins. The United States was represented by an officer from the U.S. Embassy in Paris.

Vandals had daubed red paint on the village war memorial during the night, scrawling "War Equals Profit" on it. In related ceremonies this year, 13 U.S. Army skydivers from various units in Europe will join the French national men's and women's skydiving teams in two days of friendly competition at St. Mere Eglise, to commemorate the airborne landings there.

Funeral Home, 1230 Bardstown Some GOP senators resist letter backing Ford Associated Press WASHINGTON A resolution supporting President Ford presidential election is being circulated among Republican senators by their leaders, but is meeting with some resistance, the leaders reported yesterday.

Sixteen of the 38 GOP senators have agreed to sign the resolution, and some have yet to be asked, one Senate source said today. But some were reported reluctant to sign. "Some are for the President, but they prefer not to give any indication that might become public for reasons in their own states," said Minority Whip Robert P. Griffin, R-Mich. "Some people say that they would like to think about it for a while," said Sen.

Ted Stevens, of Alaska, chairman of the Republican Senatorial Committee, which assists GOP candidates' in political campaigns. Stevens, who said the resolution was his idea, said some senators declined to sign because their state's laws require delegates to the national convention to support the winner of the state's primary. Sen. Bill Brock, declining to sign, called the move premature. "I'm not capable of predicting what will happen in the next 10 to 12 months.

I don't know what's to be gained now by this sort of thing," he said. Brock said he supports Mr. Ford "as of this time," but suggested the resolution might backfire. "I think this sort of thing may be seized on by some to point to those who didn't sign and say that they are refusing to support the President," he said. Griffin acknowledged this possibility but said the sponsors of the resolution felt it was time "to get the ball rolling for the President." "We've got a long way to go and we thought this was as good a time as any to start," he said.

Griffin said the resolution was not intended as an answer to a statement issued last Monday by 20 conservative Republicans. That statement called for "an open convention" for both the presidential 1 and vice-presidential nominations in 1976. Senate Minority Leader Hugh Scott, R- Griffin and Stevens circulated the letter. Madison County group's water plans approved FRANKFORT, Ky.
