Buchanan Case Recessed... (Continued frotxx pane 1) withhold sources of information, even in spite of a court order. Most of them said it would vio late tradition to reveal the sources, although some of them said they could not cite specific canons of ethics or other writ ten documents to back up the tradition. Judge Leavy ruled several of Johnson’s questions out of order, although the attorney was still allowed to ask them as an “offer of proof.” Frye maintained that the only question before the court was whether Miss Buchanan violated the court order. Johnson argued several times that larger questions of freedom of the press entered into the case. “You can’t have a free press if you don’t have freedom of infor mation,” Johnson said. He argued that a ruling against Miss Buchanan “will tell the working press that if they are to use anonymous sources that they will either have to break that promise or be punished for con Tempi. He said curbing her right to get information from anonymous sources would ‘'curb the right of all reporters to obtain infor mation in this way and the right of the public to learn about that information.” He also argued that Frye had presented no evidence that the information was ‘‘essential to the maintenance of justice” or that it could not be gained through other sources. Johnson put Miss Buchanan on the stand for a brief period only. She reiterated the five points on which she had refused to reveal the names of the students she in terviewed: that it would breach the canons of ethics of her pro fession, that it would violate con stitutional guarantees of freedom of the press and speech, that it would violate her privileges as an employe of the state of Ore gon, that the inquiry was beyond the proper scope of the Grand TV RENTALS ALL SIZES DEKA ELECTRONICS 390 W. 12th Ph. 342-2488 I Jury, and that she was not al lowed to have an attorney pre sent with her in the hearings. Johnson also attempted to in-, troduce evidence regarding a press release Frye issued on June 1, the day Miss Buchanan and three other editors of the Finer-1 aid were subpoenaed, but Leavy < ruled it out of order. Johnson attempted to intro duce into evidence editions of the Emerald containing the paper's endorsement of Frye’s opponent for the Democratic'nomination for Fourth District Congressman, two columns which attacked Frye dur ing the campaign, and Frye’s re sponse to those columns. Again Leavy ruled them out of order. In rebuttal Frye put Miss Bu chanan back on the stand. He asked her whether she volun teered the offer of anonymity or whether the students asked for it, whether she got the informa tion because of the anonymity, and whether any of the students told her how to testify. Leavy ruled all those questions out of order. She said she arranged to get the students together and agreed to protect her sources "to the best of my ability.” Discussion Set On Press Issue Freedom of the press, in appli cation to the Annette Buchanan case now before the court in Eu gene, will be discussed at 8 p in.
