Immediately without waiting

to the. National Capital area

chapter.
The ACLU yesterday de-

to religious holiday programs,

william B. Bryant, execu-
tive board member of the civil

of Education that the Supreme
Court decision barring a pray
er prescribed by the New York
State Regents applies directly
TO the District rule specifying
reading of the Bible without
comment and the Lords Pray
,er for opening exercises.
I'VE are convinced that En-
gel VS.. vitale prohibits abso-
lutely any requirement Of any
religious observance in the
public schools of the Nation.
While the decision dealt spe-
officially with a prayer written
by an official body, we cannot
believe anyone will argue seri-
ously that although the re-
gents could not write a prayer
designed to be non-sectarian,
they might instead use a prayer
taken from the Christian BIZ
b1e."

Teen Curfew
Law Would Hold
Purents Liuble

Fairfax City councilmen. act
ing after reports of teen-age
rampaees. have ordered prepa-
ration Of a curfew ordinance
designed to hold parents re-
fsponsible for the actions OF err
rant offspring.
A first draft OF the ordinance,
prepared BY City Attorney John
H. Rust. received preliminary
discussion at last nights coun-
ell session. A revised version
was tentatively slated for fur
ther consideration.
Follows Oregon Law
The proposed law has been
drawn up along lines similar
to q statute which has survived
Supreme Court challenges in
the State of Oregon. Mr.. Rust
said he was unable to find any
decision on whether a curfew
law would be constitutional in
virginia. Other States, not
ably California, have adopted
restrictive legislation which
subsequently was declared
invalid on the ground of i'm
proper restraint on personal
liberty.
The Oregon law. Mr.. Rust
explained, appears to avoid the
extreme controls incorporated
in the overturned ordinances.
1t operates between the hours
of am. and 5 am, applies
only to youths engaged in
Illegal activity and divides re-
sponSibility between parents
and the children.
Teen-agers are handled under
Juvenile Court proceedings.
while their parents are charged
with criminal misdemeanors
for allowing the children to
roam at large.
Mayor Shocked"
The proposed curfew was
proposed at the request of
Mayor John C. Wood. He said
he had been shocked" in the
past several weeks to learn of
teen-age gangs which vir-
tually terrorized a subdivision
ana took nighttime possession
of a local park to the extent
of threatening physical harm
to citizens If police were called.
Mr.. Rust suggested city
councilmen could review the
ordinance at their first meet
ing in October and hold public
hearings on the draft later in
the month. He said the or
dinance could possibly be put
into effect by December /.
