Numbered pages 9 through 12 of the plan should be de- leted. 5. The order of this Court entered on November 7, 1969, shall remain otherwise unchanged, except as provided for herein- above. 6. This motion is based upon the following considerations: The original desegregation plan ordered by this Court on November 7, 1969, contained such serious discrepancies as to be practically impossible to put into effect, in that some of the geographic zones contained a substantial shortage of students and others a substantial excess of students as compared to the capacity of the school buildings located within the zones. In addition, some of the zone lines were difficult or impossible to locate, and a large populated area of the county, containing some 350 students, was not included in any elementary or junior high school zone. After the November 7, 1969, order of this Court, these discrepancies were pointed out and discussed at length and in detail at several conferences between representatives of the school district, the U. S. Department of Justice and the U. S. Department of Health, Education and Welfare. Recognizing the difficulties, the Justice Department requested the Department of %ealth, Pducation and Welfare to send a representative to Natchez to prepare amendments and alterations to the plan in order to correct the discrepancies. The amendments and alterations to the plan, hereinabove recommended, are those of the representative of the Department of Health, Education and Welfare, based upon the additional work performed by him in Natchez at the request of the Justice Department. The proposed amendments and alterations have been submitted to, discussed with, and approved by the representatives of the Justice Department. WHEREFORE, the Natchez Special Municipal Separate School District respectfully moves the Court to amend and alter, in the respects hereinabove set forth, the desegregation plan heretofore ordered by this Court.
