ERNEST MOLL To retire this year ACLU Director Alabama Attorney To Speak Friday Charles Morgan, director of the Southern Regional Ofllce of the American Civil Liberties Union, will meet with University law students, faculty, and the general student body, to describe his work in the South and the legal prob lems posed by a segregated soci ety, at 1:30 p m. Friday in the Student lounge in Fenton Hall. He will also speak at a no-host luncheon at 11:45 a m. Friday at the Anchorage Restaurant.

Morgan was the Birmingham attorney who stood up before the Young Men's Business Club the day after the Birmingham church bombings in 1003 and indicted the community for the guilt which they all shared. He asked, "Who did it, who threw that bomb?" and answered, "we all did it.” Morgan lashed out at "every Governor who ever shouted for lawlessness and became a law violator . . . j courts that move ever so slowly GSAC Opposes Tuition Raise The University graduate stu dent council voted unanimously Tuesday to oppose the proposed tuition raise for graduate stu dents in the Oregon State System of Higher Education. The proposal to raise graduate tuition was raised at last Friday’s j meeting of the Oregon State j Hoard of Higher Education at Sa- j lem. According to council spokes men, members "look to the GSAC j to lead the fight against this pro I posal. We recommend that the | GSAC take immediate, formal steps to secure unified graduate student opposition to this propos ed increase.” The council also voiced its ap proval of the proposed dropping ; of the second language require- ! ment for Ph D candidates. The University faculty approved the proposal, 07 to 83, during their meeting Wednesday night. The council also heard a re port from its committee on curri culum and exams to the effect that the department of political science had agreed to make sev eral proposed changes in curric ulum.

Birmingham Described He described Birmingham as "a city where four little Negro girls can be born into a second class school system, live a segre gated life, ghettoed into their own little neighborhoods, re stricted to Negro churches, des tined to ride in Negro ambulances to Negro wards of hospitals, and from there to a Negro cemetery." The harrassment and threats to his safety that followed this ges ture of defiance and conscience, forced him to give up his law practice and prominent place in the Alabama political community. From Birmingham, Morgan went to Washington, D C., where he was employed as assistant counsel to the American Asso ciation of University Professors. He is the author of a book, "A Time to Speak.” describing his experiences in Birmingham. Pres ently, he serves as Director of the Southern Hcgional Office of the ACLU in Atlanta, Georgia. “Man of the Year” Morgan was named the first Honorary Fellow of the Law School of the University of Penn sylvania, and was selected "Man of the Year" by the Utility Club of New York. Earlier, he served as principal attorney in the one man-one vote Alabama apportion ment case. He represented the Negro plaintiffs who gained ad mission into the University of Alabama's Huntsville Center de spite Gov. Wallace’s "stand in the school house door" in Tuscaloosa. Both meetings, which arc under the auspices of the American Civil Liberties Union of Oregon, are open to the public.

At the Sierra Club Congressional Candidate States Conservation Stand" By KATHY SHAW Emerald Staff Writer William Frye, candidate for Oregon's fourth congressional district, spoke to the Sierra Club Wednesday about his proposed stands on conservation issues. Oregon is just beginning to realize that its natural resources are a great potential in terms of recreation and "sales ability,” he said, and regulation is needed now to prevent these resources from being defaced or depleted in the future. He felt this legislation may have to come from the fed eral level, as the present federal agencies are too often concerned only with their own area of activ ity. The Forest Service, Frye said, is principally concerned with in dustry, although they spend an annual one million dollars in Ore gon for recreation facilities. The Bureau of Parks and Land Man agement spends an annual seven million in Oregon. Federal projects In addition, 75 per cent of the O & C (Oregon and California) land revenue goes to the federal government for conservation proj ects. O & C refers to lands that were originally granted to rail roads for building rights in Ore gon and California. The railroads were never built and the lands were reassigned to the counties. Technically, the revenues from these lands can be used by the counties. Now, under federal con trol, these revenues can be used in any of the O & C counties and is not subject to any proportional regulation. The federal govern ment earns 35 million annually from Oregon land revenues. Frye said he would like to work at combining recreation ex penditures and regulation under one agency, or clarify the areas p{ agency, managemept. He feels there is too much conflict be tween agencies, that hampers reg ulation. Concerning the Water Quality Act of 1965, he said that it allows for a period in which the states must set up standards, or the fed eral government will establish Campus Briefs General Panhellenic will meet at 6:45 p.m. today at the Delta Gamma house.

Plea sure boating has now surpassed fishing as Oregon’s greatest source of recreational revenue. Strict Regulation Kern Creek Reservoir, while state regulated now, could be federally regulated. Strict regu lation is needed already, he said, because during good weather, it is often too crowded for good running room for water skiing and pleasure boating. It will soon be polluted unless some action is taken. After the speech, a question and discussion period centered around the Dunes Bill, Waldo Bake Regulation, and pleasure roads into the Cascades. On the Dunes Bill, r rye re stated his position that he would not reintroduce it if it failed to pass in the congressional session. The bill, if reintroduced, will have to be done so by others in the Oregon delegation who have work ed longer with the bill. He felt there were other things the southern Oregon counties need more. When asked about the possi bility of pleasure roads into view points in the Cascades, he replied that under the act covering mul tiple purpose roads, these have been provided for. Although tim ber operators share the costs and receive the privilege of using the roads as access to timber, the bill protects the maner in which the timber is to be selected and cut.
