Teacher Wins Hearing Over Communist Party Disclosure
Samuel Weltbaum, a Garden Grove high school teacher fired for not stating former Communist Party membership, is granted another hearing to restore teaching credentials. Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Mack Fleming ruled the State Board of Education based its action on general knowledge and failed proper evidence rules. Weltbaum admitted party membership 1946 to 1953 but says he did not know the party advocated overthrow by force. He faced dismissal in 1952 by Long Beach Unified after a three year probation and later taught at Garden Grove’s Rancho Alamitos High School, gaining tenure before further controversy. He previously served at Jordan High and was connected with USC as a speech department assistant.
