LAKE FOREST LOSES _ |CIRCUIT THEATRE IN H. SCHOOL SUIT _ PLANS FOR SEASON Judge Shurtleff took the position that the act of the legislature which authorizes communities of 3,000 peoâ€" ple to establish their own high schools is unconstitutional because it apparâ€" ently would permit a community of less than 3,000 in an isolated district from having a school. Decrfield‘s Attorney Comments Attorney Locke in commenting on the case stated Wednesday that the law in‘ the premises does not give equal opportunity to people similarly situated elsewhere, and as it is a state statute, it should apply with equal effect anywhere in the state. As Lake Forest is practically the only community where the law applies, the attorney holds, it is in effect special legislation and an imposition on other attorney holds, it is in effect special legislation and an .imposition on other communities; also the fact that the population figures on which creation of a high school district may be efâ€" fected vary, according to Mr. Locke, leaves another loop hole in the law.
