In the flrst case, a closed hear ing ,the defendant pleaded guilty to violation of Section I.B. 2 a. of the Student Conduct Code, in that he copied part of a question on an exam in Chemistry 106.

Pertinent to the case, he felt, were the pressures from the low (below 2.) G.P.A. of the defend ant, and the conduciveness of the situation to cheating. Due to a lack of space, students had to take the exam in adjoining seats. The person on the defendant’s left was right-handed, and so the exam paper was tipped to the right. This was "practically like shoving it (the paper) right in her (the defendant's) face," con cluded counsel.

Mercer pointed out that HUAC is now 21 years old, having been born in a period of political cri sis similar, if not identical, to those confronting the country at the present time. Since then, j HUAC, along with such organi-1 zations as the FBI, has been in strumental in repressing free dis cussion. Citing many examples of peo ple losing jobs due to HUAC investigation, as well as his own experiences, Mercer demonstrat ed HUAC methods of intimida tion.

He gave special attention to recent HUAC citations for con tempt lodged against civil lib erties and peace groups and the plans in Congress to debate the rules under which HUAC oper ates. The opposition to HUAC, Mercer said, has recently been j joined by Representatives Green and Duncan, Oregon Democrats. Especially adamant about the civil rights and peace movements, Mercer said that because the* have come in conflict with the status quo, they have been intim idated to HUAC and the FBI. "Part of our job,” he said, "is to educate people about HUAC and its tie-in with hate groups.

House The Sigma Alpha Epsilon Fraternity has just received word from anonymous sources, that the Hell’s Angels motorcycle club is planning to take over their house as headquarters for any Eugene activities they might pursue this coming weekend. It seems as though several students in the house are personal friends with some of the cyclists. S.A.E.’s are hoping the visit will be a friendly one. In any case, they have requested that police not harass the motorcyclists, and let them stay the night and move on peaceably. “Any police action might provoke an unnecessary incident” said one of the S.A.E.’s. Over 100 of the gang will be arriving early Saturday evening, and warnings have been sent out to women’s living organizations to keep their doors locked, and residents off the streets after dark. It seems the Hells Angels have a list of co-eds whom they are especially interested in finding for one reason or another. For the safety of these girls, we urge that they stay away from the S.A.E. house Saturday night, or else they might end up at a wild Hell's Angels party. The girls who should be especially careful Saturday night are: Molly Schoel Susan Hill Peggy Watrous Suzanne Tullis Judie Morris Sandy Kiser Michele LaBounty Carole Anderson Candee Clark Heather Kesten Jeanie Kelly Peggy Probasco Bev Niles Linda Whipple Mila Malden Sandy Walther Phyllis Gary Sally Harris Nancy McKinnon Andi Gill Sharon Kristenson Amy Kendrick Connie Rathbun Rosita Greennote Katny i-iowara Sue Reese Dody Dornsife Mary Ann Meek Diane Fingland Molly O’Malley Ann McMullen Kai Lopez Sherry Benson Maria Talamentez Penny Rix Kathy Cramer Judy Rohrbough Verity Petre Katie Cornelius Gayle Over Connie Peterson Cindy Bryan Cathy Clow Karen Elgner Charlene Cue Di Bowring Patti Fitzpatrick Lolly Tweed lueunaa nano Carol White Nina Cesla JiU Cesla Jill Eckersley Karen Fritzell Judy Armstrong Gina Spielman Karen Jobbett Sue Kleiwer Heidi Hoffman Vicki Porter Joyce Tegan Karen Nielson Camille Labodo Peggy Barr Linda Baxter Diane Hall Dana Horton Bonnie Marnie Evelyn Hamilin Pam Bladine Juanita You Mary Martin
