Visi-; tation: after 10 a.m. Monday. 1 A I liver transplant two years ago, Kosair Charities contributed $10,000 toward the bill. Kosair's money comes from fund-raising events, including the Foster Brooks golf tour-. nament, and solicitations.

A healthy-looking Ashley attended yesterday's party with her 3-year-old sister, Michelle, who also has a liver disease and is on a waiting list for a transplant. Their father, Edward Schmitt, said he doesn't know what he would have done without the help' he got from Kosair and many "regular folks" who contributed to a trust fund. "I almost felt bad about taking these presents. I've got Christmas, for my kids, and so many others don't, he said. when I believe our public education system is at least a big part of the problem," he wrote.

Elsmere attorney Robert C. Hoff- man, who represents the families, said Howerton's opinion was a vie-; tory for his clients despite the ruling. "I guess the decision wasn't par-1 ticularly unexpected, but Howerton's concurring opinion was cer- tainly a welcome surprise," he said. Howerton wrote that public edu- -cation "really hit the skids" about 30 years ago "when schools began the systematic removal or censor- ship of anything based on Judeo- -Christian principles." He called the idea that public schools don't promote religion a "myth." He wrote that "'secular atheism, and now to! some extent 'new are the reli-' gions in American public schools." (j The suit was filed by Raymond and Ann Miller of Independence and their children; Michael and Jo Martin of Erlanger and their chil- -dren; and Roy and Peggy Thompson of Erlanger and their children. Kosair Shrlner Ron Craig helped Teeny Cathey, 7, left, and her cousin Eric Cathey, 9, tie some balloons Into figures.

Clowns gave balloons to children at yesterday's party. By rick Mcdonough Staff Writer Wearing a big smile and a Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer sweatshirt, 2-year-old Telesa McDaniel waited in line with her mother, Paula McDaniel, to see Santa Claus at Kosair Charities' annual Christmas party. Finally, when it was Telesa's turn, she and her 29-year-old mom plopped down into Santa's big lap. "I wanted to tell Santa what I wanted," said Paula McDaniel, who asked for diamond earrings, a diamond ring and a tuneup for her 10-year-old car. Although her mom got nothing, Telesa received two heavy-duty plastic toys a "fashion-doll" sports car and a doll-sized high-chair.

More than 400 children and their parents attended yesterday's party at the Masonic Home on Frankfort Avenue. Each child received at least two presents from Santa, as well as lunch and entertainment. Kosair Charities has been host to similar parties for 25 years, but yesterday's was the largest ever, said Christie Neagle, the organization's public-relations director. Most of the children invited have serious physical problems that have left their families medically indigent, Neagle said. And many of their families have received help paying medical bills from Kosair Charities, the charitable arm of the local Shriners' organization.

But some children who attended, including Telesa McDaniel, had no physical limitations. She and her mother were invited by Bobbie Hin-kle, a friend of Paula McDaniel's who works at the Masonic Home. "We came just for the fun of it," Paula McDaniel said. Mark Mason, a 12-year-old wearing a large brace on his left leg, said he was having fun, too, and feeling lucky. He won one of several 20-inch bikes raffled off at the party.

A couple of years ago, he won a 10-speed bike from a grocery store and gave it to an older brother. Asked what he planned to do with the new bike, Mark, who lives in Louisville's Shelby Park neighborhood, first said, "If I can't ride it, I'm going to sell it." But then his 10-year-old sister, Elizabeth, spoke up: "He's going to let his sister ride it. My bike's got two flat tires." Mark acknowledged that he might let his sister ride it. Mark's mom, Delberta Mason, said her son has a problem with the blood veins in his legs, making it difficult for him to walk. He recently had surgery on his left leg and, because of complications, was hospi- tion: after 10 a.m.

Mark now gets physical therapy at a clinic in the old Kosair Crippled Children Hospital on Eastern Parkway. The hospital closed in 1981 and now is home to several family and children's agencies, which work with Kosair Charities. Larry Ham-feldt, executive director of Kosair Charities, said the organization primarily helps children whose families don't have medical insurance or have insurance but don't have enough money to cover the difference between the insurance payment and the hospital bill.

Salyers, 68, died Saturday in Robinson Creek from injuries from an auto but win sympathy in suit on taxes, private schools LOUISVILLE AREA FUNERALS Associated Press LEXINGTON, Ky.

The state Court of Appeals rejected the arguments of three families that sought tax money to send their children to private schools, but one of the judges expressed sympathy for the families. Chief Judge Charles B. Lester and Judges J. William Howerton and Joseph R. Huddleston unanimously affirmed a Franklin Circuit Court ruling in the case.

But in a separate, concurring opinion, Howerton said Friday that the Northern Kentucky families who filed suit "received less than their 'full day in and they deserve to know that their cause is understood." Howerton wrote that people were concerned about the values their children were learning in public schools as well as the lack of discipline and a good learning environment.
