PENNEY'S ing counsel then present their arguments, normally followed by counsel for the government. Thus counsel for the Little Rock school board will follow Marshall, and they in will be followed by U. S. Solicitor General J. Lee Rankin.

If any of the attorneys ask a few minutes for rebuttal, the court usually grants the request. After hearing arguments in a case, the court usually takes it under consideration at a later meeting in a closed conference room. There, a vote is taken and one of the justices is assigned the job of writing the majority opinion. Dissenters can write as they please, without assignment. Decisions generally are announced on Mondays when the court is in its regular term.

However, there is nothing bar announcement of a decision at any time, in regular or special terms. lola News Items IOLA The Rev. Benjamin A.

FOOD REG. 65c 45 ROLLS Thumbnail Of Lawyers Before Court WASHINGTON (P) Here are thumbnail sketches of the opposing lawyers arguing before the Supreme Court today in the Little Rock, school segregation case: Thurgood Marshall, 50 Baltimore-born Negro, year special counsel to the National Assn. for the Advancement of Colored People. High-spirited, poker-playing. Widely respected among fellow lawyers for skill in presenting civil rights arguments he's won 12 out of 14 cases before the Supreme Court.

Sen. Richard B. Russell (D-Ga) said Marshall seems to wield an "almost occult power" over most members of the court. It was Marshall who presented NAACP's original case against school segregation. The high court agreed with Marshall.

Richard C. Butler, 48-Arkansas born and bred, tall, Little school board. He was spoken attorney for the a World War II Army officer. Assisting him is 27-year-old John H. Haley, a native of Hot Springs, who once edited the Arkansas Law Review.

J. Lee Rankin, 57 low-pressure Nebraska lawyer rancher with interest ranging from riding to rose culture. As U.S. solicitor general (since Aug. 15, 1956) he presents the government's point of view as what call "a friend of the court." mannered, spectacled Rankin, as an assistant attorney general, similarly argued for the federal government in proceedings which led to the May 17, 1954, Supreme Court decision declaring school segregation unconstitutional.

Hearing Set On Evidence In Kierdorf Case PONTIAC, Mich. (P) A hearing was scheduled today on whether to summon a grand jury to investigate the human torch death of Teamster Union busi-! ness agent Frank Kierdorf. Michigan Atty. Gen. Paul L.

Adams and Oakland County Prosecutor Frederick Ziem filed a petition for a grand jury inquiry yesterday, basing their case on the story of Mrs. Irish Harrelson, a 40-year-old divorcee. She told police her ex-husband, Leaun Harrelson, president of Teamsters Local 614, knew of Kierdorf's burning before he stag. gered into a Pontiac hospital with burns over 85 per cent of his body. Harrelson was held for investigation of arson along with a friend, Mrs.

Mary Ann Thon, 28- year-old waitress. Rearrested because of Mrs. Harrelson's story was Herman Kierdorf. The 68-year-old uncle of Frank and a former Teamsters business agent had been earlier freed on bond after being charged with possessing a pistol silencer. Habeas corpus hearings were scheduled this afternoon for Harrelson and Herman Kierdorf.

They could be ordered released unless formal charges are filed against them. Attorneys said they also would seek to obtain a hearing for Mrs. Thon. Adams said Mrs. Harrelson told him her ex-husband learned of Frank's burning from Herman about midnight Aug.

3 about an hour before Frank appeared at the hospital. Frank told police he had been burned by two strangers who took him out at gunpoint and set him afire. But police have expressed the belief he was seared when an arson plot backfired. Frank died Aug. 7.
