3 Law School DeansOppose Recall Of Bird By MARGARET GARRARD WARNER Stoff Writer, The sonD1!9• Union San Diego's three Jaw school deans contending election-year at· tacks 'on Judges for unpopular court decisions will demoralize a nd politi- cize the judiciary, joined forces yes- terday to denounce what th~Y called ''misdirected'' anti-confirmation campaigns against state S~preme Court Chief Justice Rose Blfd a nd three of her colleagues. The deans of the University of San Diego, California Western and west• em State University law schoolS, harkening to the 1934 referendum that exempted supreme and a~pel· late court justices from partisan elections, said they fear voters may misunderstand the purpose of th e current confirmation procedure. . The confirmation process, p,U d Cal western Law School dean Rob· ert castetter, was established to remove judges who neglect .their duties or are mentally or phys~cally incompetent - not to get nd of judges who render unpopular deci- sions. Bird and three other justices ap- pear on the Nov. 7 ballot for a "yes" or "no" vote by the electorate. They are the targets of an ouster cam- paign by slate Sen. H.L. Richard• son's Law and Order Campaign Commit e which has produced televisio 'commercials attacking Bird for her rulings in two recent cases Involving a rape and mandato- ry busing in Los Angeles. USD Law School dean Donald Weckstein, Western State La"! School dean Ross Lipsker and Cas- tetter spoke at a press conference sponsored by two pro-Bird groups, Californians for an Independent Jud- iciary and San Diegans for the Chief Justice. Statewide, meanwhile, Richard- son is having trouble buying air time for his controversial commercials, although one Sacramento station is showing them. The pro-Bird forces, sending mailgrams Monday to sta- tions urging them to reject the ads, argue they are not "political" com• merclals under federal communica- tions law - an interpretation that would put increased responsiblity for their conlent on any station that aired them. the Sacramento producer of the commercials, has said the stations have been "intlIIl1- dated" by Bird supporters, and pre- dicted Richardson may not be able to spend the $50,000 a week he had planned for television between now and Nov. 7. WiUiam Moylan, sales vice presi- dent for San Diego's CBS affiliate, KFMB-TV 8, said he rejected the commercials because they violate a station requirement tqat political commercials must feat\Jre the can- didate or his or her voice. Although Ledwith said San Diego's ABC affiliate, KGTV-10, will show the commercials, station sales manager Jay Grill said KGTV has not been contacted by Richardson's group. "That's one headache I haven't had to deal with," he said. Two Los Angeles stations, KABC and KNBC, also have rejected the commercials, as has an Oakland station, KTVU. San Diego's NBC affiliate, KCST-TV 39, is holding off a decision until network executives view the commercials, a station spokesman said - a position adopt- ed by several other stations in the state. ~ID .., S ..-1 <{ Paul Ledwith,

The Council action marks another step in the trend by mainstream church groups to oppose Prop. 6. Earlier last week the 136-church Southern California Conference of the United Church of Christ and the 265-church United Presby- terian Council also came out against Prop. 6. Such actions pose a sharp contrast to the staunch support for Prop. 6 from Evangelical and Fundamentalist churches, who have condemned homo· sexuality as contrary to the teachings of Christ in the Bible. These churches have been the backbone of Briggs' support and have given the pro-Prop. 6 forces the aura of religious sanctification . San Diego's Ecumenicals took pain to warn Christians not to be duped by such appeals, declaring that the pro· ponents of Prop. 6 who quote the Scriptures on their side are using such quotes out of context. taken by the American Civil Liberties Union, and the Teachers Fed- eration, which have condemned Prop. 6 as a threat to the Con stitutional rights of free speech of all people. • The Ecumenical action coin- cides with the stands
