The board at a meeting last
night issued a new statement
which said that DR.. Norris adj

achieved" standards it set for
a school superintendent.
Meanwhile. there were these
developments in the case:
David Scull. chairman of the
County Committee for Fair Play
in Public Service. described DR..
Norris as "the first casualty in
a fast-shaping theological
battle"
He added: "A large part of
the difficulty in this situation is
expressed in the word 'incom-
patibility' and blame can just
as easily fall on all the parties
concerned.
1T is quite possible that some
board members are such highly
motivated human beings that
they have subsconciously wanted
to be and may have on occasion

fair deal" for DR.. Norris has
steadily in the past few
days. He urged supporters to
send letters to the school board.
Paul Howard, president Of the
County Council Of PTAs, clari-
fed a statement he made yes
terday on possible discussion of
the controversy by local PTA
units, many Of which are sched-
uled to meet tonight.
He said he had no authority
to ban discussion of the issue by
local units nor did the County
Council Of PTAs. Only the State
Congress Of PTAs can act against
local PTAs. he said, adding that
he doubted they would.
The school board statement
revealed that the board notified
DR.. Norris on March 9 that he
would not be reappointed when
his term expires on July 81.
Action Due in May
Board members reported that
no formal vote was taken on the
action. explaining that formal
action normally would not take
