University Weekend VERMILLION, S.D.-An Human Rights Group Proposes Guidelines To Eliminate Sexism, Racism In Schools overhaul of current in institutions must include characterizations and Sioux Falls Argus-Leader April 1, 1975 State May Lose Representative WASHINGTON (AP) -South Dakota could lose one congressman after the 1980 census if present population trends continue, Rep. James Abdnor, said. After the 1970 census, 40 states drew new boundaries for the 93rd Congress, Abdnor said, and J4 of them gained or lost seats in the U.S. House. He said in prepared remarks that South Dakota is the smallest state in terms of population with two representatives.

He said the 1st District has an estimated education courses. Ms. Myers said schools may find it costs less to integrate athletic activities. She said it is hoped that common sense will dictate most teams are integrated in a couple of years with the possible exception of "sacred cows" such as football, basketball and "There's not anything in physical education so physically strenuous that it Northwestern Sheet Iron, 5.37, 8.55, 11.76,71.27 Huron Culvert and Tank, 1.54, I0.SI II Qt.l 14.19, 24.01 Item io Metal Culverts Corrugations pr lin.

APPROVED: BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS MINNEHAHA COUNTY, SOUTH DAKOTA Nils I. Aspaas, Chairman ATTEST: Gwen Andersen, County Auditor April 1, 1975 By PHYLLIS MENSING Associated Press Writer PIERRE (AP) Boys want to be scientists or doctors when they grow up.

Girls hope to be housewives and mothers. Or do they? Human rights officials say such sexist sterotypes and many racial attitudes are being perpetuated, often unconsciously, in textbooks and programs offered in South Dakota schools. State Human Rights Commission Director Mary Lynn Myers says textbooks and readers used in some schools have reinforced unfair and outdated pictures of men, women and minority groups. The Human Rights Commission has also investigated complaints of discrimination in school athletic programs after charges that some schools have spent more money for boys than for girls. A set of proposed guidelines for use by public and private educational institutions in eliminating sexist or racist programs wifi be discussed at a hearing in Pierre Wednesday.

The proposed rules cover athletic course content, admissions, financial aid and other programs involving educational institutions. After hearing the public testimony, the seven-member Human Rights Commission will decide whether to adopt the proposals without change. Some education officials have' already expressed some objections, saying the Eroposals are too restrictive some areas or too vague in other areas, or that the commission may be exceeding its authority. One provision states that school books and other educational materials used abatements and refunds: Gary Hansen tor Mobile Home tor the year 1975, in the amount ot SI40.43; Mildred Lambert! tor Real Estate tor the year 1974 in the amount Of S221.65; ChlcaooSi NW Transp. tor Real Estate tor the year 1974, in the amount ot Harry Rost for Personal for the year 1974, in the amount ol Si.

Myers said. "But, if we're going to adopt rules we have to be specific. We can't just tell schools they cannot discriminate." The proposed rules would require that schools integrate extra-curricular and athletic programs or offer comparable programs for both sexes. Ms. Myers said if a school could show that integration not allow equal op- portunity for girls to play football, for example, it could offer a comparable program, that the girls would be willing to participate in.

The rules would define equal opportunity according to the proportion of boys and girls participating in competitive programs compared to the proportion in the entire study body. A school could be In violation of the rules if the number of participants of one sex is substantially greater than participants of the other sex, unless it could show that members of one sex have shown greater interest and that it has not discouraged members of the other sex from participating. A provision states: "Participation in athletic and extra-curricular activities shall be actively encouraged by each institution for both boys and girls and for racial and ethnic minorities." The executive secretary of the Associated School Boards of South Dakota, Gordon Nelson, was critical of that provision. Nelson said there is no law now that requires school districts to actively encourage extracurricular activities. "What do the words actively encourage mean?" he added.

Nelson also said other provisions that state an institution shall treat disabilities connected with pregnancy or childbirth the same as any other temporary disability or physical condition do not recognize U.S. Supreme Court rulings that teachers may be asked to leave their duties in the latter months of pregnancy for valid health reasons. The proposed rules also require that every class offered by an educational institution be open and available to students without discrimination and that no class or course be offered separately on the basis of sex except specific classes in sex education and reproduction offered as a part of health or physical 99 MsHoMUUMsHoMsH population of 338,000 and the 2nd District 344,000, compared with an average population of 484,000 per district in the 94th Congress. In another prepared statement, Abdnor said he has cosponsored a bill to help small businesses to obtain capital facilities at lower after tax costs. He said the Small Business Tax Relief Act would increase the vestment tax credit from 10 per cent, as proposed in new legislation, to 13 per cent.

He said the bill would also alter the first-year depreciation provisions to allow for the rise in equipment prices since the present law was enacted in 1958. The South Dakota Republican added that the measure would double the period in which 'small businesses can carry forward operating losses from five to 10 years.

Ms. Myers says that doesn't mean textbooks must be thrown out if they are not objective. But, she said, it does mean that school districts should make an effort to balance them with other points of view. "If a history passage treats the Indian as a noble savage, teachers should try to balance that with another viewpoint," she said. "The rules don't say that each book has to be an equal opportunity book.

But we would expect the school districts would institute programs designed to uncover what is wrong. and make suggestions for replacements." Federal Health, Education and Welfare guidelines do not cover course content because of questions about violations of first amendments rights or censorship, Ms. Myers said. "But we don't agree," she added. "I think we have an obligation to provide the other side of the story.

I hardly think that's censorship. "Most schools have taken out the really blatant things. But we've now got that middle point where we don't tolerate deliberate bias but leave a blank and don't do anything to overcome the effects of the past," Ms. Myers added. Perhaps the most controversial section of the proposed rules concerns athletic programs.

"I think the athletics area is going to get the most opposition because it's to require an I Kestorea service In many areas where strong winds could have caused serious service problems. Northwestern Bell said 95 per cent of its long distance facilities and more than half of its local exchange facilities in the state are stormproof ed. it said is communities in South Dakota were isolated for a time after the blizzard. but it said service was restored in most instances within 24 hours. Most of the telephone service problems were encountered in rural areas, where high winds, drifting snow and freezing rain caused lines to freeze together or break and telephone poles to fall.

energy including industries schools and hospitals. The effort has helped 3M achieve energy savings of $4.4 million dollars during 1974 in its domestic operations alone. Additional savings of $5.3 million are expected for the years 1975-76. The company's engineers adopted a general rule that money can be spent for fuel conservation steps if each dollar saves the equivalent of three-fourths of one gallon of fuel oil per year. Since a report on the company's program was carried in a business publication in December 1974, 3M has shared its engineers' report with about 1,300 companies schools and hospitals and other large energy users requesting copies.

"This is a world problem; If we continue as we are now we will run out of oil by the year 2000 or 2025 and coal by around 2075" says the chairman of the 3M Energy Conservation Task Force, Richard L. Aspenson. The 3M company was able to cut its energy consumption in domestic operations by 14 per cent in 1974 the equivalent of 16.6 million gallons of fuel oil. Aspenson says the company set up the task force in 1971 before people in general accepted the fact that there was an energy problem. By the end of 1975 Aspenson estimates that buildings which use about 75 per cent of all energy consumed by the company will have been improved.

"coisnaiMTj" By The Associated Press Northwestern Bell Telephone Co. says it hopes to complete restoration of telephone service in South Dakota that had been disrupted by the blizzard a week ago. It said 71rural customers In Mellette, Arlington and Oldham were still without service Monday but said the service should be restored by Monday evening, The company said 200 Northwestern Bell employes helped to restore service during the past week and estimated the cost at about $200,000.

"There may be exceptions in areas of sex education because of a need for privacy especially during the junior high school years. "But, we couldn't see any reason why gym should be segregated. We could still have male and female teachers teaching courses jointly." TI19 proposed rules also state that material used by educational institutions to recruit students must show students of both sexes and minority groups. They forbid guidance manuals directing students toward certain occupations on the basis of sex, and discrimination in admissions or financial aid programs. They also provide that educational institutions may offer separate housing and other facilities, but those facilities offered to women must be comparable to those off ered to men.

Darwin Tessier, Pierre, vice chairman of the Human Rights Commission, said the commission was asked to propose guidelines so schools would have something by which to measure themselves. "We' were urged by school administrators in particular to get rules adopted, because they didn't know what yardstick they were being measured he said. Mike Eckman, director of equal education opportunities for the Division of Elementary and Secondary Education, says many schools are not aware of racial or sex bias in their programs. "Brookings is the only school I know of in the state that is beginning to take a close look at what constitutes sexism or racism and set down objectives," he said. Brookings was recently the subject of a sex discrimination complaint filed by three families who charged that more dollars were being spent for boys than for girls in grade school athletic programs.
