Zabel Leo Zenata Stanley Xablotowict Court Won't Rule On Ritual to Be Used at Church L. Jan. 18 Because the St. Michael's Brotherhood of Hempstead was incorporated as a membership and not as a religious corporation.

Supreme Court Justice Frank F. Adel has refused to rule on the corporation's application that he decide what form of ritual is to be practiced at the church. The decision is in an action brought by the organization, through its president, Andrew Duzenchuk, against Martin Baran and others who constitute the majority of the congregation. Duzenchuk and his backers sought through the medium of the courts to require that the church, located at East Hempstead, be operated as a branch of the Ruthenian Greek Catholic Church of the Greek Rite, affiliated with the Pope. The plaintiff asked the court to enjoin and restrain the defendants from exercising control of the church property held In the name of the corporation in trust for its members, and from conducting and participating in religious services except under auspices of the corporation in accordance with the trust for which it was organized.

In his decision. Justice Adel points out that the difficulty which has arisen has been caused by a difference of opinion as to the form of ritual, some wanting the original ritual as practiced by the first two pastors, and the remainms party, rho r.pnarcntly are in control, de-irini the ritual to be continued as practiced by the present pastor.

This term will be the first time In 15 years that no Spring play will be presented at the school.

Rehearsals for the play "The Royal Family" were well under way when Mr. Dann intervened at the request of several teachers who complained that the students were giving up entirely too much time to dramatics and failing in their work. Investigation revealed that only three members of the east of 15 were passing all their subjects. They are Thomas Towers, Edith DeBold and Sophia Hanson. Following his action.

Mr. Dann said that he was sorry to have canceled the play and it was very surprising that so many students should fall this term, inasmuch as he had laid special stress this term on scholarship.

"Then, too, the financial stability of the bidder must be considered. If a bid is too high and you accept it and after a month or so the bidder can't make the grade, falls 'behind in his rent and finally closes up, you're worse off than If you take a lower bidder who makes his payments regularly and keeps hU concession operating. These things must be considered along with the bare figures." To aid the commissioner in his decision, the bidders are required to fill out sworn statements concerning their standing, which Includes such questions as whether or not this is a new project with the bidder, how long and where has the bidder been in business, bank references, business references and a financial statement.
