RENAISSANCE COMMITTEE Pages THE HERALD Wednesday July 1174 Blanket Approval Of Books Is Condemned Unresponsiveness of the public educational system has been shown further by a reversal of the Halton Board of Education a position con a 107page booklist Condemnation of the board blanket approval of the list was expressed Ken Campbell of the Halton Renaissance Committee Approval of the list ap parently was based on two considerations he said 1 The emphatic Judgment expressed by superintendent of program John that after monitoring opinion expressed in the media discussion at the school level and other sources of input I have become convinced that this community wants no part of censorship The assurances by Mr that any book on the list is negotiable If the student or his parents find it morally objectionable What student studying Playboy in a Grade communications class is going to find his studies morally objectionable What student enjoying such exotic pleasures as are provided for them in the permissive at of the schools is going to jeopardize the availability of such goodies by even mentioning to the narrow minded old toggles at home the sort of reading material which makes the communications course such a winner SUFFICIENT These considerations were sufficient to convince all who had protested the list at the board meeting two weeks earlier except for trustee Dick Tom Watson was unavoidably absent that the entire list should be approved said Mr Campbell This proval following the initial refusal by the trustees to prove the list has left the public pretty nonplussed and disillusioned 1 challenge the trustees to explain why Mr private Informal opinion survey Is to be taken more seriously than the responsible and representative every householder Renaissance survey The recently published preliminary survey findings In this regard demonstrate conclusively that the public rejects opinions and overwhelmingly Is In favor of a discriminatory book selection policy which rejects the presence In the schools of recent novels which debase human sexuality and degrade human dignity In fact the report of this survey Indicates that by a two to onemargin 315 to 162 the

removing such novels from the curriculum and libraries In view of this In formation which was in the hands of eat of the trustees several days before they ap proved the list the public might have expected the board to have directed Mr Boich to see that such books presently In the schools be removed and that no further books of that description be ordered Mr Campbell said QUOTATION In our concern for the ad vance of civilization by means of quality education based on the quest for the highest and noblest in recommended literature for our children Mr Campbell said he concurs with the opinion of regional AV 1 don dispute that the normal healthy adult may be able to make choices that will keep him mentally and spiritually healthy However as the twig Is bent so grows the tree and here we must look to ensure that the child develops into that minded adult able to make reasonably good choices In his reading material For those who say the students should have a free choice of all available books I draw a parallel Do you not agree that It is the parents right nay duly to attend to the physical health of the child during his growing years To see that he is fed a balanced diet to nurture bone and muscle to withstand a lifetime of wear and tear rather than to allow him a free choice to go he coke and chips route If you agree does It not follow that during these same formative years it is the parents duty to see that the child is also nurtured with a healthy diet of literature for his mental and spiritual welfare rather than allow him to drift in free choice perhaps to take the trashy trail to Intellectual depravity or bankruptcy A comment by Robert Sin in this connection also is relevant said Mr Campbell He said The use of professionals for criteria and values may be helpful but needs to be tempered with common sense the altar of the expert is both sacrilege and foolhardy The insights which they may bring must be diluted with the recognition of their vested interests and power dominating philosophy Secondly In the matter of such questionable reading material being optional Sin again makes the point for responsibility There is appropriate reding matter for the appropriate age The in the present set up is that the child in school could be printed material for study which Is both contrary to their value system and repugnant to them Peer pressure and desire for could create agonizing pressures for the student If as trustee Jim noted trustees make their decisions based on what the students want that place our faith in he students why not let the students elect the trustees and leave to the truiteM to figure out how to pay for the system Because here one parent who refuses to pay another cent of property taxes educational system run by the children and dominated by the childish experimentation of the smart aleck self righteous self important self serving bureaucrats who exploit he Immaturity of our children at our expense to build their

purchasing of some new and some expenditure In connection with the moving and relocation of the office telephone services and radio antenna as well as other minor expenditures All member municipalities within the watershed will bear the authority s share of the cost smug and snug little empires said Mr Campbell Trustee Tony Goodyear observed that it seems there is not much hut and cry from the community as some people suppose What does he want marches book burnings window The public that our elected trustees will quietly and cf fulfil their duties In representing the intcrc of the parents and taxpayers without having to be prodded by power pressure tactics from the public But if the trustees arc going to cave in to the pressures of our paid civil servants and serve them instead of us they II hearing enough hut and cry to sutlsfy them for a long long time Since the launching of the renaissance committee in late March we have at great exptndlture of lime and resources sought to fa ourselves with the and weaknesses of our educational system and to prepare constructive reform proposals for the consideration or the board had hoped that by sweet reasonableness such a brief could be presented and negotiated with the trustees But if the trustees only respond to hue and cry tactics from the public we have to consider and prepare plans which take this trustee attitude Into account said Mr Campbell Years Of Heavy Smoking Take Toll In Emphysema Autopsies of people who die from emphysema show the effects of cigarette smoking on their lungs Now new studies of apparently healthy smokers also show emphysema at work It usually lakes years for emphysema to develop Years of heavy smoking By the time shortness of breath becomes a constant complaint the disease is well developed But new research shows the disease Is in progress when there arc no symptoms at all and at young ages In a recent report researchers studied lung sections from autopsies of adults who were victims of homicide or sudden accidental death They recorded the victims age previous illness long term place of residence occupation complete autopsy findings cause and instance of death From the next of kin they documented the persons smoking habits Then they determined the degree of emphysema in the lungs Lighter smokers showed intermediate grades of em physcma Heavy smokers had much higher
