The opinion

JONES, Circuit Judge

(dissenting).

It must be admitted that the appellant’s complaint is inartfully drawn. It does, however, assert that the appellant was denied readmission to a public school because of his race. I think the complaint was sufficient to withstand a motion to dismiss and so respectfully dissent.
