Mrs. Joe Ab Hall Schools Musi Now Admit Blacks WASHINGTON (AP) Private schools may not refuse to admit black children because of their race, the Supreme Court ruled 7 to 2 today.

In an opinion by Justice Potter Stewart, the court said such racial exclusionary policies are "a classic violation" of federal civil rights law. The court also rejected the argument that the application of this law to school admissions was an unconstitutional invasion of the privacy of families. Justice Byron R. White and William H. Rehnquist dissented, saying that the decision was a "political task" which the court should not undertake.

The case involved Fairfax- Brewster School in Bailey's Crossroads. Va. and Bobbe's Private School in Arlington, both in the Washington suburbs. Fairfax-Brewster was established in 1954. the year the Supreme Court outlawed official segregation of public schools.

Bobbe's was established four years later. Mrs. Wallace (Nettie Hightower) Hollowav. 45. of 611 Barnwell Ave.

Livingston said Friday. Livingston, who has represented the confessed slayer of Dr. Martin Luther King for more than six years, said he learned of the court's decision Friday moring. Ray asked the court earlier this month to relieve Livingston a Washington attorney James H. Lesar of further duties in the case.

Ray, noting that the appellate court had refused to order a trial in the 1968 slaying of the civil rights leader, said further appeals would be fruitless. Ray is serving a 99-year sentence at the Tennessee State Penitentiary at Nashville. The sentence was imposed in ls)69 after Ray confessed to the King assassination. He has been attempting to withdraw his confession since shortly after his sentencing. The appellate court gave no reason for refusing Ray's request.

County Fire Ant Situation Said To Be Under Control By VIVIAN DAVIS Staff Reporter Aiken County's fire ant situation is holding its own.

according to Bill Beasley. Beasley. speaking at this morning's fire ant breakfast at the Heart of Aiken Restaurant, said that fire ants in Florida and southern Georgia are so bad that the citizens of Aiken County can be proud of the way the situation is being held under control here. Jim Evans. Aiken County farm agent, described the ants as very small, dark reddish brown and viscious.

Care must be taken in working with these ants because stings from them will fester, he said. Fire ants build mounds, often 12 to 15 inches high, from their secretions he said. The mounds are usually built in and around vegetation on which the ants feed. Aiken County's method of Ruling May Stop 'Sex Strips' WASHINGTON (AP) A new Supreme Court decision allowing cities to use zoning laws to restrict topless bars, adult bookstores, movie theaters and dance halls could help stop the growth of "sex strips," a prosecutor predicts. The prosecutor, Maureen Reilly of Detroit, said "clusters of this sort of business draw prostitutes and dope like mag- nets." She was the successful lawyer in the Supreme Court's 5 to 4 ruling Thursday that cities may use their zoning power to place greater restrictions on establishments that feature sexually explicit fare than on those which don't.

One justice referred to the ordinance as an example of "innovative land use regulation." PROBATION OFFICER RETIRES John H. Cantwell, probation officer in Aiken County for the S.C. Probation.

No business on the list is allowed to locate within 1,000 feet of any other business of one of the types listed or within 500 feet of a residential neighborhood. The ordinance was challenged by two operators of so-called "adult" theaters. ABIDE IN CHRIST I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.

Evans said. He said only about two tablespoons per mound, spread around the base, are necessary.

The ants carry the mixture into their mounds and feed it to their young, thus ending their reproductive cycles in about two weeks. Evans advised rebaiting the mounds in the event of rain. Evans offered a bag of Mirex to each person attending the breakfast, and said. "We want to encourage you to look for these mounds out in the country." The heaviest treatment period is in the fall when the vegetation is dead and the mounds are more visible. Evans said.

Last year, he said, the program was very successful and less acreage had to be treated, indicating that the number of fire ants in the county is gradually being reduced. So far. the county has been paying for the Mirex. Nearly one ton was given away last year. The hand method of control is for small areas.
