...tt,
MADISON, Wis., (JTA) —
The Wisconsin Supreme Court
struck down this week a contro-
versial state parochial school
bus law which was to have be-
come effective next July 1.
By a four to two decision the
high court ruled that the law,
which would have provided
state aid for transportatiOn of
private and parochial school
pupils, have violated a consti-
tutional ban on expenditure of
public funds for the benefit of
religious societies or religious
or theological seminaries."
The legislature had sought
to avoid the constitutional issue
by providing that the pupils
were to he taken to the nearest
public school instead of to their
own. The Supreme Court de-
clared this did not change the
fact that "practically all of the
non-publi• schools whose pupils
are to be transported under the
attacked act are operated by
religious organizations."
The heart of the controversy
is whether such legislation
benefits the children or the
non-public schools. California,
Maryland and Kentucky Su-
preme Courts have held that
such laws are constitutional on
grounds they benefit the chil-
dren. High courts in New York.
Delaware, Oklahoma and Wash-
ington have taken the other
view and banned such aid.

Protests Lodged
Against Georgia U's
'Merchant of Venice'
ATLANTA, (JTA) — Protests
against a University of Georgia
production of Shakespeare's "Mer-
chant of Venice," put on by the
campus. theater last February,
were continued by Rabbi Na-
thaniel Zimskind, Hillel director
at the university.
According to Rabbi Zimskind,
a Jewish child in Athens, whom
he did not identify, has been
taunted since last winter, being
called "Shylock" by Christian
fellow students.
The Southern Israelite printed
an editorial by Adolph Rosen-
berg, editor supporting Rabbi
Zimskind's protest. The protest
had been sent at first to Dr.
Leighton Ballew, chairman of the
university's speech department,
who had scheduled the Shake-
sperian play.
When Ballew refused the Hillel
director's request for cancellation
of the "Merchant of Venice" pro-
duction, Rabbi Zimskind carried
his protest to Dean John 0.
Edson, of the university's Col-
lege of Arts and Sciences. How-
ever, the Shakespeare play went
on as scheduled.
The part of "Shylock" was
played in the production by Prof.
Richard Weinman, a member of
the university's faculty, who, ac-
cording to Ballew, "voiced no
disapproval but did point out
that it was the most interesting
and- best role' he had ever
played."
