GIVE FEMALE, MALE EQUAL CHOICE

IN REGARD to the sex-discrimination case at Virginia Military Institute: It would seem the only answer to cases involving male and female constitutional rights is to treat both sides on a 50-50 basis.

The female would have the opportunity to choose an all-female school or one that is coed. The male would have a choice of an all-male school or coed.

In this manner neither sex would be discriminated against. It seems the way things are going now, the male doesn't have any rights to make a choice. MARVIN D. MOORE MARTINSVILLE
