"She always delivers the goods whether she's covering the waterfront, decking a docker, bracing the brass or helping steer the nation,¹ writes reporter, and adds: "every yardstick for rating women in gov't puts her at the top." BUSING The 4th Circuit Court of Appeals overturned 5-1 a court-ordered merger of Richmond's predominantly black schools with white suburban counties.
