Judge Doubts Code I • • • (Continued from f<a<ir 1) tie* for sex become more easily available?” In an interview with The Emer ald Virgil Langtry, circuit court judge from Portland, commented on the Conduct Code and the re cent sex scandal at the Univer sity Judge Langtry said "this is not the first time a thing like this has happened at this or any other university,” but that it is the first time a case of its type had been handled in this manner, "Beyond Hope” He said that he “has doubts" , about the student code being able to handle a case of this nature. He added, a civil case involving as many persons would require considerable legal work to bring it before the courts. "The idea of the student court handling this is almost beyond hope," he said. Langtry told The Emerald that although he favors the general ideas in the code "it is impos sible to expect the University or the president, being arms of the state, not to have some authority over the student courts. UO in Bad Position "One difficulty of this code is that it is set up along pseudo legal lines,” he said, "and it im mediately runs into administra tive problems.” When questioned about the ac tion of the grand jury, Langtry said he felt its decision was based on authority since “a grand jury’s authority is very broadly inter preted.” He questioned, however, whether the decision was “appro priate” in the case. "The University has been plac ed in a bad position,’’ he said Standards Confused At the dialogue Langtry was asked whether he thought the University could act against in dividuals with only heresay evi dence. He responded by saying sworn testimony before a grand jury “is legal evidence and can be used to convict.” Dr Tyler pointed out moral standards often become confused in today's world because of the "complex of social values of the different societies which enter the picture.” She gave examples of some societies which place women and girls in two categories concerning sexual permisivene.ss, regardless of their ages. Dr. Tyler said in her practice as a clinical psychologist she had found “most difficulties are not with the sex urge itself, but with the lack of fulfillment of other basic needs in the individual." When asked whether she thought the students involved in the sex case should be expelled from the University she answer ed that they should not. “A punitive morality is not particularly what we want here,” she said. "Something must be done to teach these persons something of constructive value,” she said. “Perhaps these boys need to stay in college worse than .some others.” Want to really get results?— Use Emerald Classified Ads— Phone 342-1411, Ext. 1818. -DANCE EVERY FRIDAY & SATURDAY NITE THE CASCADE 32nd & Jasper — Springfield University Plans Park Meeting Charles DeTurk, California’s director of the Department of Parks and Recreation, and Theo dore Osmundson, landscape archi tect from San Francisco, will be the principal speakers at the University’s Second Annua] Con ference on Parks and Outdoor Recreation set for Friday and Saturday.

No Rats, No Sheep, No Sleep By JANET GOETZE No rats have entered rat alley for several weeks. No squirrels have chattered from roof-top perches. No sheep graze on the front lawn, and the rhododendron has begun to bloom. Several mothers and one father came through this weekend, but they probably don’t qualify as part of the menagerie. The Mustang has been by several times, but it never stays. We don’t keep oats. The typewriter has cackled into the night, and the neighbors have been heard tossing in their beds next door. Cement blocks don’t keep out noise. Train whistles come through the open windows after everyone else has gone to bed. Sometimes the early morning light does, too, and the birds begin to chirp. The static on the radio increases to drown out the Salt Lake and San Francisco radio stations. The light in the room burns on and on. Sometimes a passing neighbor sees it on the way to an all night restaurant and calls up from the sidewalk. A roommate asks the next morning why we were talking to our self aloud in the middle of the night, then clucks her tongue and mutters, “Thesis fever. It takes the best of them.” We feel flattered to be considered the best of them, and massage the small of our back which has become very tired and sore from rubbing a ladder-back chair. The time is drawing near. The thesis will be submitted. The last chapter has taken shape, and the argument sounds good after a brisk walk around the block. We carry the look of a j-major. We have black circles under our eyes and our hands shake. Our thirst becomes unbearable. Fuzz is growing in our mouths. Calouses have begun under our broken finger nails, and our type writer needs oiling. We will meet one more graduation requirement J-majors must write. They must research. They must submit that thesis. Our intake of Dairy Queens has gone down this week. We can’t spoon and type at the same time. But we have found banana splits to be beneficial in lowering the temperature of fevered brains dur ing breaks. Sodas can be sipped through straws clenched in the teeth with out raising the hands from the typewriter keys. When dinner is too long in coming we munch lustily a long hot dog and think of Tom Jones. He ate chicken. When the task is completed we will gorge at 13th and Hilyard. We will spoon delicious curl-top goodies into our mouths and re flect on the job done and how much we missed our full quota of ice cream. ...A LETTER FROM THE WHITE HOUSE B.
