For Home After
College Strike
HENDERSON. Tenn., april 3
i.V Classes resume tomorrow at
little Kreed-Hardeman junior col
lege here hut there may not be
many students around.
A big majority of the little
Church of Christ school s 383 stu
dents was angrily heading home
ward. The walkout climaxed a ser
ies of tiffs with college President
N. B. Hardeman.
Ths tudenls voted to quit school
at a mass meeting Friday, and the
next day half of the faculty of 13
resigned, effective June 1.
The students say they're walking
out because Hardeman fired as
sistant Dietician Mrs. Ixittie M.
Petty for supporting their class
room strike last February.
Mrs. Petty agrees she was
fired: Hardeman says she re
signed. A student leader, Bob Atkinson
of Canton, O., said Mrs. Petty's
"dismissal" violated an agreement
that there would be no discrimina
tion against any student or faculty
member who supported the Feb
ruary strike.
The earlier uprising came when
7fi-year-old Hardeman accused two
ministerial students of "spreading
scandalous gossip."
It ended with nis public apology
and the announcement he would
resign by May, ISM. Hardeman
later denied he would resign. Hi

Alice Richard
Under Further
State Scrutiny
FRESNO, Calif.. April 3 -UP)
Fourteen year old Alice Richard
Saturday was committed to a state
mental institution for further ob
servation in the March 19 "hate
slaying" of her twin sister, Sally.
Juvenile Court Judge Arthur
Shepard declined to name the in
stitution or to identify the form
of mental illness attributed to
the girl.
Judge Shepard stressed, how
ever, the case was nut a criminal
one.
"It's merely a case of prescrib
ing treatment for a sick child,"
he said.
Commitment of the surviving
twin followed just 12 days after
Sally met her death by shooting.
The jurist indicated Alice would
be observed for 90 days, then re
turned for court action.
He added that several such per
iods of observation and confine
ment could possible follow.
The jurist said he had received
hundreds of letters from anxious
parents, interested psychiatrists
and "crackpots."
To quiet the fears of worried
parents, the judge said:
"We are satisfied that the fact
of her being a twin sister was
1 neither a primary nor a contribu
! tnry cause of the killing. Parents
I should drop this phase of the mat-
ter from their minds.
"What happened here was that
a mentally tick girl killed another
girl with whom she was closely
associated. The sisterhood was
1 purely incidental."

Higher Court
Fight Possible
Over Teaching
OKLAHOMA CITY. Aprd 3 -UP)
Disgruntled Bethany citizens
were clamoring for a atate supreme
court fight Saturday to oust achool
officiate who they claim force Naz
arene doctrine on students.
District Judge Baker H. Melone
dismissed the suit Friday as
half of Bethany jammed the court
room. He ruled the teaenmg ot ao
stinence from alcohol and tobacco
doea not constitute religious in
struction.
The suit, brought by a citizens
committee headed by William E.
Bleakley, charged violation of re
ligious freedom guaranteed in the
first and fourteenth amendments to
the U. S. Constitution. It asked dis
missal of the superintendent, prin
cipal and three teachers for per
mitting the alleged teachings.
Bleakley said he may appeal to
the state supreme court.
A forbidden "coronation kiss"
touched off the battle. For a kiss
is not just a kiss in blue-lawed
Bethany, a town of 2.300, 10 miles
west of here. It's the object of
statutes which forbid the act in
public.
Wearing of shorts in public and
sale of beer and tobacco are also
taboo. Most of Bethany's citizens
are members of the Nazarene
church.
The religious dispute snowballed
after Riddell Riggs planted a kiss
on Queen Charlotte MrLain at a
high school basketball queen cor
onation Feb. 17.
The next day 30 students walked
nut, claiming they feared reprisals
because of anti-kissing rules in the
church and school. Six ringleaders
were suspended for a short lime.
Then irate parents took up the
fight, seeking relief from alleged
influence by the Nazarene church.
