Ut is claimed on behalf Of the Dlain- T

The contention Of the plaintiff IS that
the repetition Of the Lords Prayer and

a taxpa yer in the city. was thereby COM
PEELED to support this form Of worship.

that during such entire school day he

IF It can 1e said that the oral repe-

Of religious worship, then the contention
Of plaintiff would be WeH founded, but
the court is Of the opinion that the mere
