By JERRY BUCK Associated Press Writer After five years of attracting little attention, sex education courses in public schools have come under attack in at least 27 states within the past year. The intensity of the campaign against sex education has increased in recent months, primarily because some conservative organizations have joined whol 'leartedly in the controversy.

The struggle between the opposing factions is turning into a bitter, emotional wrangle that has leapfrogged from the local school board to state legisla tures to Congress. Some opponents see sex education in a conspiratorial light: pornographic, Communist-serv-' ing and breaking down the morals of American youth.

Legislators in Arizona, California, Idaho, Iowa, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, Oklahoma, Tennessee and Washington have considered measures to prohibit, control or investigate sex education.

Wood, coordinator for ad hoc committees of the society. In state after state for the past five years, educators, with the backing of the National Education Association, National Congress of Parents and Teachers, American Medical Association and others, had been introducing courses in sex and family life.
