J' court.
Partnership action of law school
•’ seniors are Donald F. Bach, Mal
com J. Montague (1952-53 mem
- ber of the student traffic court)
I- and J. Kelly Farris grew out of
* the denial of Farris’ motion to
dismiss a citation at the traffic
- court Wednesday night.
- During the two hour legal ar
- gument, Farris charged that the
* court had no authority and was
y acting in violation of the Oregon
* and United States constitutions.
y He then demanded a jury trial for
Which the court had no machinery.
* The court, choosing to test the
. case, voted unanimously to fine
Farris $2. When he refused to
pay, the case was sent to the stu
'dent affairs committee.
Speaking for the three law stu
dents, Farris stated: “We are
available at the law school and
will defend any student who re
quests our services before this
so-called court. We are firmly
convinced that this group of stu
dents is acting unlawfully when
it passes on the guilt or liability
of a student for alleged traffic
violations."
Farris has indicated that he will
appeal the Wednesday night ac
tion of the court. Furthermore, he
stated, “If my deposit money is
meddled with in any way, I will
seek an injunction in the circuit
court for Lane county and ask for
exemplary damage from all re
sponsible persons."
“No comment" was the state
ment of Carl Weber, chairman of
the court, when he was informed
of these new developments.

the marchers as they paraded in
front of Carson hall. In retaliation,
Hazelett's supporters chased the
"Alphaholics” back to the dorm.
At the door of the hall, the
marchers were met by more water
as they milled about in front of the
building. The torchiighters then
ran toward the hall, breaking
through the bolted door.
Two or three torches were car.
ried into the hall, as the paradergt
entered. A door panel was broken
on a second floor room in the me
lee and smoke filled the
the building. In the front of
hall, torches were piled in front
of the door, close to the building.
No blows were exchanged.
Outside, amid tnore water and
shouts froji both sides, the march
ers left, going toward the Student
Union parking lot. Men from Al
pha, Gamma and Hale Kane,
watched the marchers leave. A Eu
gene police car patroled the streets,
around Straub for the next few
minutes.
