Sopt. 3, 180 A ff Men's pigEais eiiieiPffes School board leader quits in Schuylerville i "Hayward, who is divorced, says he is Dot anti-woman or anti-feminist. But he feels feminists 'made a mistake in not incorporating the male lot ol time for the children of the district." Jacobson said.

The board has three options: it could hold an immediate election, leave the position vacant until June or appoint-someone to fill out the term which expires in June, 1981. Reiger said the board is aware of the options and will study them. No special meeting has been called. The next regular meeting will be Sept. 11.

hear we are losing a dedicated and conscientious president. For nine years he attemped to provide a sound education for the children of Schuylerville and his presence will be sorely missed by everyone." Richard Jacobson; superintendent of Schuylerville Central School, said he was sorry Hanehan had resigned. "He has been a board member who put in a SCHUYLERVILLE -William Hanehan. president of the Schuylerville Board of Education, resigned Tuesday. Hanehan cited "health i reasons compounded by a lack of success in leading the board and community on a successful venture toward good education" as reason for his resignation.

John Rieger, vice president of the board, said he was "extremely sorry to ficials "didn't think it was a problem" when a dress code was established for boys but not girls where he taught. And people actively support campaigns "against violence against women," but they pay little attention to the fact that four out of five victims of homicbde and aggravated assault are male, he says. "Violence is a man's issue as much as a woman's," Tie says. "Women say they can't walk the streets, but it's the same for men but they're afraid to say they're afraid." As women begin to get a share of political and economic power formerly reserved for men, men have not gotten an equal share of the social and cultural powers once reserved for mothers, wives and lovers. CAMBRIDGE, Mass.

MP) According to the old saying, it's a man's world. But what's so great about that if a man's life expectancy is seven years less than a woman's? Or if men. pay more for car insurance because the industry assumes they're "reckless?" Or if few divorced fathers get custody of their children? Is a "man's world" so great if men, and not women, are subject to a military draft? Or if men always are expected to make the first move, accept a dare, be a success, and never seem "unmanly?" Those are the sort of questions Fredric Hayward raises as he fights what he sees as sexism against men. His job. as the founder of Men's Rights is to fight laws that discriminate against men and stereotypes that belittle them.

Since the advent of the women's movement, people have learned to recognize ways that women are discriminated against, but they fail to see discrimination against men, Hayward says. Hayward. 33, a New York native, founded his non-profit corporation in 1977. Once a teacher and a State Department employee in Thailand, he now subsists by working two nights a week at a hotel. Hayward has testified at hearings that helped make it unlawful in Massachusetts for young men to pay higher.
