JEFFERSON CITY, Mo.—The
Missouri supreme court Tuesday
upheld the decision of a lower
court which denied Lucile B*u-
ford managing editor of the Kan-
sas City Call, the right to enter
the University of Missouri school
of journalism. The court's deci-
sion was based on tha contention
that Miss Bluford was not enti-
tled to enter the white university
because of the lack of a previous
demand on Lincoln University.
However the court held that
toe University of Missouri must
accept Miss Bluford 'if upon pro-
per demand and after a reasona-
ble lima toe desired course is not
avaAable at Lincoln University.'
The decision pointed out that the
state is making an attempt to es-
tablish a school of journalism at
the Negro university.
In a unanimous opinion the
court Mid it was the 'duty of
this court to maintain Missouri's
policy of segregation so long ss
long as it does not come in con-
flict with the federal constitu-
tion.'
