[LM_NET] GEN: Parthington firing news story

[Josephine Dervan <dervan@OPTONLINE.NET>]

Hi All-
 
The American Libraries online newsletter has reference to an article in a local 
newspaper in California which gives some further information about the firing of 
Richie Parthington. According to the article, administrators claim the firing was 
due to reasons other than the reading of the book to 6th grade students.
