Cruz Sentinel Teachers In SC Face Dismissal Protest hearings were concluded Tuesday afternoon in the cases of seven Santa Cruz City schoolteachers given dismissal notices for next school year. The hearings were held before State Hearing Officer Stewart A. Judson, who determines if the dismissals are legally correct. Schools cannot dismiss teachers simply because of money shortages, though this is the basic reason behind the dismissals, but can only dismiss classroom teachers if there is a drop in enrollment or for other specific reasons. More than 30 dismissal notices were sent out by the Santa Cruz City School Board March 15, but all but seven were rescinded by action of local school committees.

The seven teachers face final dismissal action May 15 by the school board, if the hearing officer upholds the legality, according to City Schools personnel officer Robert Fortier. The seven are Phyllis Agnelli, Barbara Foxworth, Hermann Schmalzried, Robert Simmons, Brad Elliott, Victor Miguel, and Stanley Miller. They include two high school teachers, three elementary teachers and three music teachers. Cottle Considers Request Dist. Atty.

Chris Cottle said today he is thinking about asking the state appellate court to overrule to local judge's decision barring the public from pre trial hearings in the Dr. Emanuel Stolman case. Stolman was indicted early: this year on 23 felony counts of illegally collecting funds from the state Medi Cal program. His attorneys have challenged that indictment, and asked for private hearings in front of Judge Donald May to determine whether the indictment was justified. May granted the request that the hearings remain private, despite protests by Asst.

Dist. Atty. Art Danner. In making his decision, May said that a defendant has a right to a private court hearing when the case is in a pre- trial phase such as the Stolman matter is now. Cottle said he is filing a petition to the state appeals court in an attempt to have May's ruling set aside.

Permit SC Good Shepherd Talk On Friday Golden West Savings and Loan Association will try again tonight to get a site supervision okay from the city planning commission for a proposed branch office building at the head of the Pacific Avenue Garden Mall. The project was rejected once by the commissioners and returned to the city design review committee for more study and work. But the commissioners did not like the results obtained and tried to return the project to the committee.

This time, however, the committee hung tough in support of the design it had recommended and Golden West then took the case to the Santa Cruz City Council on appeal. The council has ordered the planning commission to either approve or reject the project outright so that there would be a basis for an appeal if one were again made. The commission meeting is at 7:30 p.m. in the city hall council chamber. The city council has ordered this and all commission meetings to be taperecorded so that full records of proceedings will be available for study should any commission rulings be appealed.

The council order came Tuesday after City Planner Phil Jones admitted that full minutes of proceedings have not in the past been given to the council for study when appeals are made to it for reversals of commission rulings. Because the planning department has not been following appeals procedures required by the council, the council had to delay for a week a scheduled hearing of an appeal by Harbour View Enterprises for a variance and a use permit the commissioners have refused to grant. thold said, the robber fled in a green Volkswagen bus.
