1Opinion of the Court
FAY, Circuit Judge:
The questions before us today deal with the attempts of the South Park Independent School District (SPISD) to desegregate their school system. The government contends that a 1970 desegregation plan ordered by the district court and implemented by the SPISD is not having its intended results, and, consequently, further remedial steps should be taken. The district court rejected this argument, andTFTJie~ process ruled That the SPISDls a “unitary71 school system! We reverse the ruling of the district court" and remand for further findings of facts.
