SCHOOL MASCOT Fight over 'Redskins' moves past principal American Indians ask Wichita's civil rights board to investigate By The Associated Press WICHITA American Indians plan to fight a decision by North High School to keep its Redskins mascot, saying the symbol is racist.

Principal Ralph Teran announced last week the school would keep the nickname after consulting with a site council, made up of parents, teachers and community members who examine issues of concern to the school. The site council recommended retaining the mascot after a special committee found that although American Indian feeling in the community was mixed, more than 90 percent of parents, students and staff responding to a survey wanted to keep the name. The decision prompted a group of American Indians to ask Wichita's Civil Rights and Services Board to investigate the issue, said Gayl Edmunds, one of five American Indians who plan to speak at the board's meeting Dec. 16. "I think a thorough investigation will really bring to light that maybe it's more offensive than we realize," said Edmunds, a Lakota Sioux.

The Civil Rights and Services Board is an advisory board to the Wichita City Council. The board can choose to investigate complaints of discrimination, said Annie Montgomery, Civil Rights and Services director. The board also can choose other options, such as setting a public hearing and referring people to other sources. "The board will determine what they think is the best way to pursue it," Montgomery said. The school's decision to keep the mascot won't have an influence on any action the board might take, Montgomery said.

"If we don't get relief here, we will find relief," Edmunds said. "We're going to see this to the end." DOLL COLLECTORS Just arrived!
