The Virginia Military Institute does not have a prayer of getting its case to the U-S Supreme Court.
Today the Court said it will NOT consider reinstating mealtime prayers at the school.
(------------)
[VO-NAT]
[SUPER=03-Lexington/File Tape; :00]
It rejected the appeal for state officials who said the tradition did not violate a separation of church and state.
The federal appeals court in Richmond found that V-M-I's mealtime prayers violated the Constitution, and the high court's action means that ruling will stand.
The case arose when two cadets sued when the school refused to change the prayer ceremony.

Kurt Busch got squeezed by Tony Stewart, ending up in the middle of a sandwich that involved 11 cars-- including those of Rusty and Kenny Wallace.
Gordon had the lead with under 5 laps to go, when his teammate Brian Vickers brought out another caution, freezing the field as Dale Earnhardt, Jr. moved to the point.
