.Vashti's Anger

Esther, in which Queen Vashti is
portrayed as an angry and yenge-
full woman. when | read OF Mrs.
Vashu McCollums suit to stop
all the children OF Champaign, ILL.,,
from having religious education on
released time because she objects
to her son hearing the Word OF
God since she is a nationalist, a
free-thinker IAN atheist. The Board
OF Education did not force her son,
Terry, TO attend any classes; he
went into the music room to study
while the other children attended
religious classes, His classmates
testified that they paid no atten-
ton 10 him, but Mrs. Vashti Nc
Collum insists that because she
made an exception OF him. he was
subjected to social pressures-
which. of course, is true in adult
life Of all who choose to mark
themselves off from the normal
type OF any community.
Had this suit been limited to a
question Of the rights OF parents
under the Constitution, II would
have been socially significant, but
counse, raised the question OF the
place OF religion in American life.
Said Landon l.. Chapman, counsel
for MIS-. McCollum:
when we begin to let the
churches use school funds We are
letting them feed out OF the pub
lie trough. And when we do that
II means the beginning OF the end
for most churches.
Like pigs at trough the little
churches will be crowded out by
the biz ones and eventually we Will
have only one church left. -"

lecture on the nature OF the New
Deal but not on the nature and
virtue OF Christianity. or, for that
matter, Judaism. II is apparently
excellent to have debates on the
Leninist-Stalinist program for the
destruction OF our civilization but
not on the ethical doctrines OF
Maimonides, Ibn Gabirol and Tho
mas Aquinas.
owen Rail, one OF the counsel for
the Champaign School Board, put II
succinctly when he said;
Freedom OF religion as guaran'

freedom OF religious worship. The
Constitution is not designed to pro-
tect atheists from the consequences

had gone to her room to get a snap

at her kneehole desk looking over
some papers. The older woman
looked up and smiled as Terry an

Lindy's restaurant always has

few stories emanating from there

account OF the recent feud between

the whole cordial. Not so though.
Harvard worked itself into a con-
siderable stew, and all because the
Count elaborated with George
Frazier on tune called Harvard
Blues.
The college objected to the song
mainly because the lead sheet car
ried reproduction OF the seal OF
Harvard University, and this struck
the gentlemen on the banks OF the
Charles River as lese majestic, non.
sequitur, and perhaps even dolce
far niente. Therefore, they wrote
number OF indignant letters to
the publishers requesting that all
existing copies Of the song be call
ed in and no new ones released
until the insignia had been re-
moved.
