SIXTEEN MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Wednesday. April 25. 1956 Ruling Strikes at Teacher Authority At Public Events Umatilla flj.PJ A Jus tice Court ruling striking at the traditional exercise of teacher authority over students at school events after school hours hays resulted in cancellation of all evening activities at Uma tilla schools. School Superintendent "Jack Carmichael ordered teachers to stay away from Umatilla schools after 3:15 p.m. pending the out come of an appeal from a Jus tice Court decision which said that "a teacher has no more au thority over students than over adults at afternoon events open to the public." School Board Chairman Gene Hiatt said the ruling of Judge M. N. Jenkins made it "almost mandatory" that no events Ge held at the school after hours. The ruling was in connection with a charge brought by high school student John Schultz against high school mathemat ics teacher George Edmonds. The teacher was fined $14.95 plus S1. court costs on convic tion of a charge that he tore the sleeve of the 16-year-old's jack et. Edmonds testified that he told Schultz he could not enter the school while smoking a cigar ette. He said that Schultz threw away his cigarette but continued to be abusive. Edmonds said further that when he put his hand on the student s arm to get him clear of the door at a school carnival, the youth wrenched free and" the sleeve was torn. Judge Jenkins said that Ed monds should have called a law officer to discipline the offend ing student. Edmonds said tea chers were required to attend the carnival. He said he would appeal his conviction and Hiatt said the board would seek the advice of its attorney and of the state attorney general.
