SAN FRANCISCO, April s.
Prof. Harold o. Riggs contro-

unfit for continued use in San
Francisco's public junior high
schools.
The San Francisco board Of ed
ucation unanimously accept the
report of six-man committee
which recommended that the
books-11,88S of which are now in
use as texts in junior high schools
be relegated to the reference
shelves in school libraries.
This committee recommended
ton was based upon a finding that
the Rugg books do not provide "a
fair and balanced presentation of
the facts of our past and present
in such a way as 10 be desirable as

The recommendation was silent
on the charge by numerous patri-
Otto organizations that the books
are subversive in their treatment
of American history.
