Twenty-one youngsters whose parents don’t want them going to school with AIDS patient Ryan White began attending sixth- and seventh-grade classes at an alternative school in a former American Legion hall in Russiaville, Ind. The transfers came after a judge dissolved an April 10 injunction and allowed Ryan to return to his seventh-grade class. Ryan, a hemophiliac who contracted acquired immune deficiency syndrome through a blood transfusion, is assigned to Western Middle School in rural Russiaville, three miles from Kokomo.
