the Supreme Court by Dr. Leon A.
Ransom, member of the NAACP le
gal Committee and Dean of ^be
Howard University School of Law.
He argued that the courses which
the plaintiffs sought to study wera
not available at any state suppor
ed schools other than the Univers
ity and that to bar them from the
University of Tennessfee constituted
race discrimination and was a vio
lation of constitutional rights based
solely on race and color.
The court held that “equivalent
facilities have been authorized by
the state legislature by an act of
1941 and that a "further decision of
the issues becomes unnecessary and
improper.” The court said further:
“that the legislature of 1941 took
no rights away from the appellants
On the contrary the right to equal
ity in education with white stud
ents was specifically recognized,
and methods by Which these rights
would be recognized was set forth,
in the legislation. What more
could be demanded? We find no
merit in any of the assignments of
error. The result is that the degree
of the chancellor must be affirmed.”
The case was filed in Knox coun
ty Chancery Court in 1939 by local
counsel Carl A. cowan and Z. Alex
ander Looby.
