Limited, one-way busing is used in many cities to bring small groups of black children from ghettos to mostly white schools, sometimes in suburbs. More extensive two-way transportation is increasing also, under court orders, to produce proportional mixtures of whites and blacks within all the schools of a system. Still largely unexplored are proposals to expand two-way busing to entire metropolitan areas, bringing children from relatively remote suburbs into city schools as well as sending city...
