Assembly Campbell was joined by Assemblyman Ryan in the introduction of Assembly Constitutional Amendment No. 36 and Assembly Bill No. 1201. Assemblyman Ryan also introduced assembly Con- stitutional Amendment No. '%1 which requires the Superin- tendent of Public Instruction to issue a voucher in each fiscal year to the parent or guardian of each minor in this state subject to compulsory school attendance law, to be redeemable for no less than $120 by administrative authority maintaining any school in which the minor enrolls. It requires Legislature to appropriate funds therefor. the method of school financing, as well as the inequities in educating our youth. Wealtl)Y school districts are able to provide better education for their children, while the less wealthy districts can only provide the bare minimum. "There are also inequities in the taxing structure which provides the revenue for schools. The bulk of school financing comes from the property tax, which forms the greater part of the county property tax rate. This places a great burden on the individual property owner and is making it almost prohibitive to own property. "These then are the reasons for my introduction of legislation which I am certain will provide a more equitable Assemblyman William He said also that because of the current financial crisis Campbell Heights) I gislahon m Legi ·Jature statewid CR-Hacienda ha introduced facing private and parochial schools, the public schools to establish a would have to absorb nearly a to half million private school the California property tax • of San Diego College for Men, Alcala Park. Speakers for the last three sessions have been Sister Evelyn Joseph, CSJ, secondary school supervisor for the Diocese of San Diego, Sister Margaret Ann, OLVM, diocesan supervisor of the CCD Parish High School of Religion program, and Dr James Sandell, obstetrician and gynecologist, who spoke on aspects of the physiology of sexual behavior, including a discussion of contraception. Intention Told The intention of the course is to stress a positive Christian attitude toward human sexuality. Since young people are deluged on all sides by the negative aspect of sex in movies, magazines, books, and television, Sister Evelyn Joseph said, we ar~ not given i.l option of giving them sex ~c tion. They arc receiving an in- complete picture, and we must balance this with the ,.· tian outlook. Ignorance is not a substitute or a foundation for morality, Sister Evelyn Joseph stated. ln all of the sessiorlll o far, great emphasis has been placed on the necessity fw: par- ticipation of the parents of the students taking this course. Sister Margaret Ann stressed that their interest and at tendance at a class describing the contents and purpose of the course is essential. Parents would be told what text books are to be used and the records and film strips which will supplement the classes. Parents also will be asked to help wherever possible, and through this cooperation will perhaps be better able to communicate with their own children regarding education in family living, Sister Margaret Ann said. Program Outlined A parish Famiy Life program, stressmg why sucl;i a program is n eded. •ho would attend, how the cour would be implemented, and what books and visual aids would be used, was outlined by Sister Margaret Ann. Since the attitudes of our teenagers is not what we would hope, and since statistics have shown that only seven per cent of the young people receive any sex education at e before they receive it from other sources, we must try to convey to them a Christian :norality, 8hesaid. The course is designed for junior and senior high school students to supplement what instruction .they have received in public sc!hool and from other sources. The course would be an elective, and attendance would depend on parental approval. Parents Attend It is hoped that as many parents as possible would make a special effort to attend an orientation meeting and discuss 'the course with the religion teacher and the priest of the parish, Sister Margaret Ann said. The program would use a variety of teaching aids, such as guest speakers, audi-visual material, and group discussion. The course could last anywhere from four to nine weeks. with lower grades having the shorter length of time. Sizes of the classes would be small, with no more than and preferably less than 15 students.

To Ride In Police Cars EL CAJON - Sixteen Univer- sity of San Diego law students will spend an April night on a police patrol beat here. Each student will observe a policeman doing his job for six hours, starting at 8 o'clock on a Friday or Saturday night. "We picked the most critical times, th!! time when activity is liveliest," said Sgt. Terry Hali, El Cajon P o I i c e Department community relations of f i c e r, a n d coordinator of the new project. Whenever there is no danger, the student will be invited by the officer to get out of the pa- trol car and listen to field inter- rogations, see arrests, watch ac- e i d e n t investigations and ob• serve other police activltie at close quarters, Hart said. The first four studepts out this weekend. He said no group of law stu- dents in San Diego County has had such an o p p o r t u n i t y before. The opportunity was a wel- come one, according to Dwan V. Kerig of La Mesa, a professor of law at the university. "They jumped at the chance." Kerig said. He said nearly 50 students have asked to partici- pate in the experimental, extra- curricular project. The project was suggested by Harley Mayfield, a retired Navy officer who is in his second year of law studies at the university. He, like the other students who will participate, is a member of one of Kerig's c rim in a I law classes, "the administration of c rim i n a l justice" and ''evidence." Kerig said he, as well as the students, has been enthusiastic about the possibilities of such a project since Mayfield suggest- ed it. "You've got to have some sort of a feeling in criminal law work for the policeman and the problems be has," Kerig said. The professor said field observ- ation naturally is a good way to attain such a feeling. The proiect may also benefit the P o I i c e Department, Sgt. Hart said. He said it could be a good move toward rapport be- tween police and lawyer, and a means of evaluating police procedures.

Bishop Furey observed that the general's humility "was responsible for all his other qualities. Humility is the prime virtue of all. Gen. Eisenhower was a humble .man, and therefore a truthful and dedicated man." The bishop recalled the several occasions when he had met Gen. Eisenhower, par- ticularly in Palm Springs, which is in the San Diego Diocese. Bishop Furey also said that Gen. Eisenhower had faith in the youth of America and the youths demonstrated their love for their general in following him during World War II from the Normandy invasion to victory. a military man and as U.S. President, Bishop Furey said.
