Judge refuses to reinstate students EVANSVILLE, Ind. (AP) Judge Gene E. Brooks of U S. District Court has refused to order the reinstatement of five Brazil High School students expelled Oct. 1 for distributing leaflets on school grounds. In a ruling late Monday, Brooks refused to accept arguments that the students’ constitutional right of freedom of expression had been violated by the expulsion. The court ruled that school officials acted properly because the students had violated valid school rules. The ruling follows a lengthy hearing Nov. 24 during which Brooks heard testimony from 14 witnesses including the five students and school officials. The five students were expelled for distributing literature apparently advocating a school boycott the day after a walkout by some 54 students. The students contended they were not advocating a walkout but were trying to attract the attention of other students to a meeting planned to discuss what they considered the harsh disciplinary policies of first-year principal Larry Rambis. In his ruling, Brooks said the case was “fact sensitive’ ’ and his ruling is strictly limited to the circumstances involved in this case. He said a different conclusion could easily have been reached by a variation of the facts. Brooks said he considered the walkout on Sept. 30 a crucial factor in his decision.

said. “It helps the landlord, and it will help the Housing Authority have a little more impact on the community.” Councilmen Joe Miles and Karen Ambler were quick to see merit in the program. “IT’S GOOD FOR THE neighborhood, too,” Miles commented, “because they have to keep the house up to certain standards (to stay eligible). It’s good for the landlord and good for the tenant. ” “There is a definite need for something like this,” Mrs. Ambler added, detailing her experiences in working with the township trustee in paying rent subsidies. City attorney Jerald Calbert applauded the Housing Authority for making application for the program. “I’ve been working with the Housing Authority for over a year now,” Calbert commented, “and this will help them expand and bring in additional federal assistance. They’ve been busy the past year with Castlebury and now they’re ready to branch into other areas. This would be a good start.” HAMMER, MEANWHILE, said the application is due in mid-January and he was only seeking the Council’s attitude toward such an endeavor. “What I wanted to do tonight was get the feeling of the Council...answer questions and explain the project,” he said. The Council, acting on a motion from Lloyd Ellis, unanimously approved the program’s concept and backed the Housing Authority in its application for

funding. A formal resolution is expected to be adopted at the Council’s January meeting. Meanwhile, the Council also unanimously passed an inducement resolution for the issuance of a S4OO taxfree revenue bond for Black Lumber Co., 501 N. Indiana St. The lumber business plans a renovation project to begin this spring. DETAILING THE PROJECT for the Council, as he did the Greencastle Economic Development Commission a day earlier, Tom Black of the Bloomington-based lumber business predicted an increase of 6-8 employees. “We proposed to increase employment, increase the city’s tax base and upgrade the neighborhood by removing a fire hazard,” Black said. “The bond doesn’t cost anybody anything. We get a lower interest rate and the buyer (of the bonds) gets a tax break.” As in other ED projects, the city would not be obligated, except in name only, in the issuance of the tax-free municipal bonds. On a motion by Councilman Ellis, the inducement resolution from the Greencastle Economic Development Commission was passed unanimously. The matter will still go before the EDC and City Council one more time before such funding is formally approved. IN OTHER MATTERS OF Council concern Tuesday:

♦City engineer Cliff Norton reported that the new wastewater treatment plant is at the 52 per cent completion stage. Before it gets to the 80 per cent stage (in late June or July), the city must have completed sewer rehabilitation, Norton said, asking the Council to authorize bidding on the remainder of the sewer work necessary to meet grant provisions. It was approved unanimously. ♦Street and Sanitation Commissioner Jim Wright announced that the decision to permit burning of leaves saved the city $6,671.59 in leaf collection this year. Wright said the city spent $13,951.91 (including $1,554.48 on gasoline) in 1980, while this year’s totals were $7,280.32 ($990.60 on gasoline). ♦MRS. AMBLER ASKED fellow Council members to consider a plan to charge DePauw University for use of city services, since it pays no taxes. She said DePauw is getting ready to make out its expenditures budget and now would be a good time to plan for such action. “We need revenue,” she said, “and this is one area that’s been overlooked too long. I don’t have a vendetta against them or anything like that, I just see it as a means of added revenue.” Mayor Harlan, however, said the only city service that could qualify under such a plan would be fire protection. The next regularly scheduled meeting of the Greencastle City Council will be held at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, Jan. 12 at City Hall.
