The unanimous opinion clears the way for surgery for three young Davenport "children who doctors claim need immediate removal of their tonsils and adenoids. The children are Brian Karwath, 10, Colleen Karwath, 8, and Neil Karwath, 6, all of whom are wards of the Scott County Department of Social Services.

Although their Raymond Karwath, gave up legal custody of the children in June, 1970, he stepped forward last year to block the surgery. Today's opihion upholds a decision by a juvenile court in Davenport that ordered removal of the children's adenoids and tonsils. The court noted that Karwath did not oppose the surgery or medical treatment outright but asked for a six months delay to be sure the surgery was "absolutely necessary beyond a shadow of doubt." His objections were based on "religious faith not further explained," the court said. However, Justice Mark McCormick of Fort Dodge said the evidence offered "clearly shows" that the removal of the tonsils and adenoids was necessary "to restore and preserve the health of these wards of the state."
