adding
spokespersons said, adding
that this appears to be
backdoor effort to legalize
school prayer.
In a recent statement in
Philadelphia, Jerry Falwell
of the Moral Majority said,
"We knew we couldn't win
on school prayer but equal
access gets us what we
wanted all along."
The bill is designed to
interfere with the authority
of local school boards to set
standards for the use of
school facilities, the report-
ers were told. The coalition
noted that under the "Equal
Access" regulation, schools
would be forced to accom-
modate religious meetings,
even when the school board
chooses to deny access to
other groups.
The coalition members
warned that the Bonker bill
raises Constitutional ques-
tions because it provides
special privilege for "reli-
gious content."
The bill's opponents also
pointed out that the act may
discriminate against stu-
dents belonging to minority
religions if schools establish
minimum numbers for stu-
dents desiring to form clubs.
The opponents said the
legislation would open the
schools to outside religious
organizations, since the bill
permits clergy to partici-
pate regularly as leaders of
religious instruction or con-
duct worship services be-
fore, during or after school.

Hotel.
