...many of his friends." The reactions stem from the quality of his tough decisions: alone or in tandem with fellow Fifth Circuit judges, Wisdom has outlawed a Louisiana law that forbade Negroes to participate in sports events with whites, and ruled unconstitutional another Louisiana law requiring the N.A.A.C.P. to reveal its membership lists. Last year, serving on a special three-judge federal court, Wisdom defended the legality of the Civil Rights Commission's investigative procedures, although the other two judges voted against him.
