Lion Sex Supplement
Confiscation Brings Suit
The public participation por­tion
of Monday night's school
board meeting lasted the better
part of two hours, but sur­prisingly
enough, there were
more protestors to the cutback of
the $ 340,000 in the budget than
there was to the confiscation of
the sex supplement printed in the
high school newspaper, The
Paper Lion.
The majority of the complaints
registered with the board in­volved
cutting back on supplies
for students to save money on the
budget. The Board of Education
cut the $ 340,000 from the budget
and placed it in a separate ac­count
in an attempt to hold as
much of it as possible as a surplus
to offset some of next year's
anticipated increases in the
budget.
The biggest protet came in
behalf of the ski club, which the
Board of Education denied skiing
field trips. It was the contention
of the board that the Far­mingdale
Youth Council should
take over this type of activity.
Possible accidents charged
against the district's liability
insurance, was cited as the
reason.
On the Paper Lion's sup­plement,
Board President Robert
Weiss refused to poll the board
for their individual views when
asked if the board still had a
policy of not allowing human
sexuality to be taught in the
schools. " There's been no change
in policy," he said. He declined to
poll the board because the
district is being sued in U. S.
District Court by two students
demanding that distribution of
the paper be allowed.
Weiss stated that the board was
attempting to retain its policy,
but would abide by the court's
decision.
The two students, Mark Bayer,
feature editor " of the Lion, and
Susan Moonitz, a student on the
staff have cited as defendants
Principal John McLennan,
Superintendent William A.
Kinzler and the Board of
Education. They cite their
constitutional rights to distribute
the paper and to read the paper
under the rights of freedom of the
prejfc According to the lawyer
