## Opinion text

HAYNSWORTH, Chief Judge:
The defendants, charged in the state court with assault and battery upon two white men 1 sought to remove their cases under Title 28 U.S.C.A. § 1443 (1). The sole ground is a claim of jury discrimination with which we dealt in Commonwealth of Virginia v. Wallace, 4 Cir., 357 F.2d 105 , decided this day.
For the reasons there stated, remand of these cases to the state court was proper.
Affirmed.
. The incident had no other racial connotation.
