By The Associated Press
CONWAY ? It appears the Horry County
School District has discriminated against blacks,
and the practice could lead to legal problems,
the state Human Affairs Commissioner has said.
1(j tQ A lengthy investigation by the state agency
von't found that for the past decade, white job applicsai(i
ants have had a distinct advantage over blacks
when applying to work in the school district,
xted Commissioner Jim Clyburn said Wednesday.
)n by In one case, a black band leader was denied a t(
promotion even though he was better qualified t(
n than the white candidate who landed the job,
Clyburn said. i(
ljie As a result of the findings, the commission
sent decided last month that the band leader, Leslie
Mclver of Conway High School, is justified in b
nd is suing the district for racial discrimination. The f;
suit will be filed sometime during the next two b
weeks, Clyburn said. n
The investigation was launched in February k
1988, shortly after Mclver learned he'd been a
passed over for the job of district fine arts

determined that Mclver was more qualified fi

In addition, the commission found that tl

He said planning for the suit was stepped up
