Sentence Upheld by Court; Four Raiders Sanctioned By JAQI THOMPSON Staff Writer The University steam tunnels are potential death traps, warned Physical Plant Superintendent Leland Lorange, in a Student Court session Friday. Facts about these steam tun nels that are seemingly unknown to many students were brought out during an appeal by two freshmen who had been sanc tioned in minor court for being in the steam tunnels. The power lines running through these tunnels carry 4,200 volts. Lorange pointed out how easily a student could electro cute himself in attempting to jump across the wires. Death would be instantaneous. Violation of Code Not only are these underground tunnels dangerous, but it is a vio lation of Section I.B. 2.e. of the Student Conduct Code, and of Eugene trespassing laws for un authorized persons to be in the tunnels. As a trespasser, any student caught in the tunnels will be re ferred to the Eugene Police De partment. Damage done in these tunnels by students costs the physical plant about $100 a month, Lor ange said. Damage is most com monly broken light bulbs, stolen locks, broken doors, and cut chains. There are also beer cans which have to be picked up. Disciplinary Probation L o r a n g e added that high school, as well as University, stu dents have been In the tunnels. The students who were appeal ing their sanction of disciplinary probation from Feb. 10 to May 1, felt the duration of probation was too long in view of their viola tions. The two maintained their vio lation was less serious than other violations which had brought lighter sanctions. After hearing Lorange’s testi mony, the Court decided the sanc tion imposed by minor court was not too severe and should be up held. In the other hearing of the session the Court found four freshman men guilty of violating Section LB. 3.c. of the Code. The four pleaded guilty to the charge that they entered the sleeping quarters of Caswell Hall, a women's dorm. They were given disciplinary probation for the re mainder of winter term and all of spring term Another charge had been tiled against the four—that they were in possession of 10 pairs of pan ties and one pair of pajamas, which had been reported as stolen. This was a violation of Section I.B. 2.e. pertaining to the misuse of private property on campus. This charge was dismiss ed from lack of sufficient evi dence that the property had been misused.
