GENERAL ASSEMBLY NEEDS HELP--William Phillis, Executive Dir. of the Ohio Coalition for Equity & Adequacy of School Funding, holds a chart during a news conference, at the Ohio Statehouse, in Columbus, Ohio, on Friday, Dec. 19, 1997. The Coalition feels that the General Assembly has not taken the proper steps to satisfy the Supreme Court's March 24, 1998 deadline to provide all Ohio children with the means for an adequate and equitable education.
