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.
