Supreme Court, back in business next month, faces a plea that it bind the states to another key provision of the Bill of Rights: the right to a jury trial in criminal cases. The appeal comes from Louisiana, where Gary Duncan, a Boothville Negro, was-tried by a judge on a charge of simple battery, convicted and sentenced to 60 days in prison and a $150 fine. The 21-year-old tugboat skipper's demand for a jury trial was turned down.

He could have been sent to prison for two years and fined $300. The Sixth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, ratified by the states in December 1791 along with the rest of Bill of Rights, guarantees trial by an impartial jury "in all criminal prosecutions." However, unlike most key provisions of the Bill of Rights--including all other ele- of the sixth amendment--it is binding only on the federal level. Inch by inch, using the post- Civil War 14th Amendment as the device, the Supreme Court has applied Bill of Rights guarantees to the states, including free speech, the ban on unreasonable search and seizure and protection against self- incrimination. Last March it added the Sixth Amendment right to a speedy trial.

Now, Duncan's attorney, Richard B. Sobol of New Or- eans, is asking the Court to include the right to a jury trial.

On Oct. 18, 1966, as Duncan was driving home near- the school, the appeal saw his cousins by a group of white boys, ind told the cousins to gef'hto his car. At trial, the white boys'lnd a white onlooker testified'Duncan slapped one of the white boys on the elbow. Duncan and ns testified he had touched the boy on the arm, as a manner of expression, while it would be bestif he went-home. Under Louisiana lawr 'a" defendant charged with a misdemeanor is to be trfe'd by a judge without a jury."
