A Democrat, he is best known for his 1957 stand against the desegregation of the Little Rock School District during the Little Rock Crisis, in which he defied a unanimous decision of the United States Supreme Court by ordering the Arkansas National Guard to stop black students from attending Little Rock Central High School. ==Early life== Faubus was born to Sam Faubus (1887–1966) and the former Addie Joslen in the Combs community near Huntsville, the county seat of Madison County in northwestern Arkansas.〔 He was born prematurely and weighed only at birth. According to his father, "Little Orval was different from most boys. Kids liked to get into mischief, but all he ever did was read books. He never done anything if he couldn't do it perfectly. You'd never find a weed in his row of corn." 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Orval Faubus」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
