No 'Let Up' on Hemlines Seen as Board Stands Firm MRS. LILLIAN GARDNER MRS. Trustee Zisch Fears Civil Disobedience, Not Hemlines Tustin Union High School, District trustee John Zisch Monday night declared the district's "real issue doesn't have anything to do with the height of the hemlines" but was a question of whether the district should "encourage and foment civil disobedience." Zisch's comments came during a review of the district's dress and conduct code prior to a public hearing requested by David R.

Cadwell, an attorney for two of the district's parents. Zisch began by quoting from the State Education Code: "The governing board of any school district may make and enforce all rules and regulations needful for the government and discipline of the schools under its charter. Any governing board shall enforce the provisions of this section by suspending or if necessary, by expelling a student in any elementary or secondary school who refuses or neglects to obey any of its rules or regulations." "It was within framework," the trustee said, "that Full Military Honors for El Toro Marine Killed in Viet Full military honors were given Marine PFC Frederick Hirschmann III, who died in action in Vietnam Sept. 16.

Utt (4-35th) reports he is "resting and feeling good" after his mild coronary attack last weekend. In a good humored telephone call to his District Office, Utt said he has "good charts and good progress reports." The 68-year-old Congressman for Orange and San Diego Counties said he has "no pain and no worry." He expects to rest for about two weeks but will be up and around in the hospital by the end of this week. Utt was hospitalized Sept. 18 after Capitol Physician Dr. Rufus Judson Pearson diagnosed a mild coronary occlusion.

The eight-term Representative had reported "a flu attack" over the weekend. He had been in his office and on the House Floor Sept. 18 for business as usual before seeing the doctor. Utt is at the Naval Hospital at Bethesda (Maryland). OPTIMISTS PLEDGE $1000 TO BOYS' CLUB Tustin Optimist Club, at its most recent board of directors meeting, pledged $1000 to Tustin Boys' Club, to be paid over the next three years, according to Dr.

Paul DeLoe, president. The Optimists are one of several local service clubs to pledge toward the new $54,000 facility planned for the grounds of Tustin Youth Center, Sixth and Pacific Streets. The site was leased from the city some months ago at the nominal rate of $1 per year. DAVID R. CADWELL HAROLD HEINLY ARGUMENT HEAVES TO AND FRO ON DRESS the board, after due ation, adopted the present code of dress and grooming on July 24, 1967." Zisch stated other districts had also adopted dress codes, some "even more stringent than ours" but that the difference has proven to be "that this year it is being enforced." BETWEEN OURSELVES Zisch indicated the problem could have been solved "between ourselves" if it had not been "for the onrush of the mass media sensationalizing this new environment." "More than 95 per cent of the student body are now complying with this regulation," Zisch revealed in defense of the code which he "granted" was bit Enforcement has not been arbitrary or capricious.

Much thought was given to the enforcement of the code since the board made it very clear as to its insistence in enforcement." According to Zisch's outline the method of enforcement was drafted by Supt. Robert Dahlberg, and agreed to by the board. He stated numerous meetings were held between administrators, board members and teachers to "clarify what their responsibilities were." Although parents had protested at the board meeting held Sept. 11, Zisch declared, for the first time, that kneeling to determine skirt length for girls is "purely an optional situation. If there were any question in the child's mind or the parents, and they wanted to check it otherwise, an upright kneeling position 3 inches above the knee was to be determined excessive." Said Zisch, "Again, this purely an optional procedure for the (Continued on Page 2) Amid cheers and tears, Tus-, (the dress code) due to fash- tin Union High School District board of trustees Monday night reaffirmed their stand on the district's al and well publicized dress and conduct code.

Statements from "I'm behind you 100 per cent" to "We have the authority to petition and create or abolish any elected body" rang out in a meeting which started at 7:30 p.m. but got nowhere on the adopted agenda until after p.m. "All men are created equal and with certain inalienable rights which can not be taken away by King George III, the Congress of the United States, or by the board of the Tustin Union High School District." David R. Cadwell declared. Cadwell, all attorney representing Dr.

and Mrs. V. Benson and Mr. and Mrs. John White, district parents, had requested a public hearing at which time he had hoped to present witnesses to prove the district's dress and conduct code did deny the rights of both parents and students.

He noted the board did have the right to determine what would be detrimental to the educational environment but not to take away the right of individuals to dress in manners acceptable and fashionable with their peers. "We submit," he said, "that you are without power to enact a regulation which conflicts with the standards acceptable in this community for dress." He explained his witnesses, if he would have been allowed by board president Hal Balmer to call them, would have testified that it is almost impossible for the average girl to conform with it ions and availability. The girls would have testified, he continued, that one day they would wear clothes which would be acceptable, the next day the same clothes wouldn't be, that some days the code is enforced, some days it is not. Cadwell, contradicting trustee John Zisch who had stated 95 per cent of the students conformed with the code, said, "ninety-five per cent of the students do not conform rather you and your adminis- trators, have relaxed the enforcement of the rule so that now it may seem it is being enforced." "You have exceeded your authority," he declared, "when you enact a rule which requires students to conform to a mode of conduct because 10 18 what you think is proper yet is not what the community thinks is proper, as established by the regular mode of dress." "You can ignore these arguments but we ask you to please meet these arguments, ask yourself if with these rules of dress you have gone beyond what you were elected to do, and abridged the rights of students and their parents. We ask you to reconsider and redraw your dress code SO that it is not stated as at present." Cadwell also requested that as the board ruling is "improper to begin with" those students he represented be allowed to reenter classes and make up work they have missed.

"I think the board should be commended for the position they have taken," Harold Heinly, 12161 S. W.
