Church Schools Suffer Supreme Court Setback THE BATTALION E DA1 Page 6 College Station, Texas Wednesday, OctowE uA I WASHINGTON (A>)_An Ohio law defraying some expenses for sending children to church-run schools was struck down Tues day by the Supreme Court as the justices ruled in about 1,000 cases. The 8 to 1 decision may indi cate that any system of aiding parents of parochial children could find disfavor in the high court. However, the justices did not issue a full-blown opinion de tailing their views, and the Ohio reimbursement approach is only one of several being taken by various states to assist in the education of private school chil dren. In other actions the court set the stage for rulings on the ap portionment of the Connecticut and Texas legislatures, on claims of sex discrimination in the mili tary and on municipal bans on jet aircraft takeoffs and landings at night. Also, the Democrats were turned down in a plea for free air time to match three television appearances by President Nixon. Justice William H. Rehnquist, in a probably unprecedented ac tion, explained why he did not disqualify himself from a case involving military surveilance of civilians. law to be in violation of the First Amendment’s prohibition on gov ernment aid to religion. Cited by the panel was an eight-one deci sion by the Supreme Court last year that Pennsylvania and Rhode Island may not reimburse church- related schools for instruction in nonreligious subjects. Ohio appealed, claiming its law was markedly different. For one thing, the state said, the funds are paid to the parents and not the schools. Campus Brk ion De But the Supreme Court simply affirmed the lower court’s rul ing, without even pausing for a hearing. Justice Byron R. White dissented. The 1971 Ohio law provided $90 a year to some 300,000 fami lies to reimburse them for books, laboratory fees, bus fares and other expenses of sending their children to private schools, about 95 per cent of the mRoman Cath olic.

Bob Webster in the Memorial Student Center Today and Tomorrow From 9 a. m. to 5 p. m. This is the first of two columns on three groups which I’ll refer to as Spirit I, Spirit II and Jo Jo Gunne. Spirit I (1967-1971) had four albums and the singles, “Me chanical World,” “I Gotta Line on You,” “1984” and “All the Same,” among others. In 1971 they split into two groups, one keeping the name “Spirit,” and the other calling itself Jo Jo Gunne, after the ape hero of an old Chuck Berry tune. Both groups have released albums, “Feedback” and “Jo Jo Gunne,” respectively. Spirit I was a unique combi nation of varied personalities. Be fore it was formed, Ed Cassidy, the bald drummer and a veteran of 15 years on the night club circuit, played gigs with every one from Benny Goodman to a 22-piece black band. John Locke, Spirit I’s pianist, had extensive classical and jazz training and Mark Andes, bassist, came by way of Canned Heat, the biggest blues band of the late sixties. Their combination as Spirit I was un derstandably jazz oriented, hardly the usual thing for a rock band. Success was instant as their first single, “Mechanical World,” hit number one in both England and the United States. However, their production of material was spo- ratic and inconsistent, though often brilliant in its originality and progressiveness. possible by their precision. “Feed backs” lyrics are brash and ob vious, nothing about it is reserv ed. A1 Staeley’s lead vocals are ground out painfully, backed up by a black chorus. The drumming of Cassidy is still identifiable, es pecially on “Witch,” but it’s not the supporting pacesetter it served as in the old Spirit. “Feedback” is not music by the Spirit we know. Although it is more contemporary with its rock and roll leanings, Spirit II is not the progressive product of Spirit I. Unless you’re in the mood for disappointments, leave “Feed back” on the shelf and pick up “The Family that Plays To gether.” It is Spirit’s best and a landmark in modern rock music. Next week — Jo Jo Gunne. Ohio has since passed another law providing tax credits for par ents of private school children. That law is being tested cur rently in a federal district court. The high court, meanwhile, agreed to review later this term a Mississippi law which provided state-owned textbooks at private, segregated schools.
