THE NEW YORK TIMES, June 26, 1962
* School prayer deemed unconstitutional
* Engel v. Vitale Supreme Court decision
* Separation of church and state
The front page has a three column headline: "SUPREME COURT OUTLAWS OFFICIAL SCHOOL PRAYERS IN REGENTS CASE DECISION" with subheads that include: "Ruling Is 6 To 1" "Wide Impact IS Foreseen; Churchmen Voice Shock" and more. Much more on pages 16 & 17 with loads of text and a few related photos. Historic 1st report coverage on the landmark United States Supreme Court decision which made it unconstitutional for state officials to compose school prayer in public schools. Great to have in this famous NYC title.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day throughout. Complete in 68 pages, a little foxing at central fold and right margin, otherwise in good condition.
