AJCommittee Ire

NEW YORK — The
American Jewish Com-
mittee announced last
week that it would file an
amicus brief in a Levit-
town, N.Y.,--court case in
support of public school
students who are suing
the board of education for
removing a number of
controversial books from
the district's school lib-
raries.
The AJCommittee re-
ported that the school
board of the Island Trees
district, which had taken
the action, had said that
the books involved con-
tained "material which is
offensive to Christians,
Jews, blacks, and Ameri-
cans in general."
Among the volumes
which were ordered re-
moved were Bernard
Malamud's "The Fixer,"
Kurt Vonnegut's
"Slaughterhouse Five,"
and "Best Short Stories
by Negro Writers," edited
by Langston Hughes. -
