UCLA Literary Magazine Suspended LOS ANGELES (CPS) — The weekly literary supplement of UCLA’s Daily Bruin, the student newspaper, was suspended from publication following pressure from local officials. They protest ed the reproduction of a picture of a nude woman and an accom panying article which ran in the January 18 issue of the paper. The picture, appearing in the supplement INTRO, drew criti cism from several Los Angeles County supervisors, local news papers and two UCLA students, who say they will sue for discon tinuance of the Daily Bruin. The picture, drawn by the Ger man artist George Grosz, drew | violent reaction from the German government in 1923 when it was first exhibited. The government imposed a fine on Grosz and or dered that the exhibitions be dis mantled. The decision to suspend INTRO was passed unanimously in an emergency meeting of the Stu dent Communications Board, which called for a policy study committee to set up guidelines to insure the independence of stu dent publications. The board an nounced that it found nothing wrong with the article but sus pended publication partly be cause of recent political pressure by conservatives to investigate the Pose Results In Action Against College Coed GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP)—A curvy 18-year-old University of Florida coed posed in the buff for an off-campus humor maga zine and was charged with indis cretion. Now students have rallied to her side, amid a campus furor over her treatment. Today she faced a hearing be fore the faculty disciplinary committee. Pamela Brewer, 38-25-38. got her parents’ permission to pose on a white Persian rug and the picture came out in a full-length gatefold in the magazine Charla tan. The coed, from Springfield, Vir ginia, is the center of a rising controversy over student rights and university control. “The whole idea of students' relationship to the unversity has become increasingly sharp in the past few years — the whole idea of individual rights and a rule of law,” said Stan Laughlin, an associate professor of law. An editorial in the magazine said it would challenge any charges made against the sopho more. Laughlin said it was not a suggestive picture and that the girl “was covered in all the ap propriate spots.” "Our position is that the uni versity has no authority to gov ern her activities so long as they are lawful, particularly when they occur off campus,” said her attorney, Selig Goldin.

The policy study—chaired by Digby Diehl, editor of INTRO, will hold open hearings to con sider what material can be considered acceptable for INTRO with respect to the readership of the Daily Bruin. Diehl said that his committee, rather than imposing censorship, will set up specific recommenda tions to “establish a liberal prece dent” for student publications. Editor Neil Reichline of the Daily Bruin said that the board's action was taken be cause "the Communications Board was pressured by the situation of the university today. Keeping this in mind,” he added, “1 sup pose their decision was a wise one.” “The board, I'm sure," Reich line said, “continues to think INTRO is a literary magazine of superior quality.” The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors became involved in the INTRO controversy when it I decided to refer the INTRO arti-; cle to the County Anti Obscenity Commission and to send copies of i that edition to the president of the Board of Regents and to the governor’s office. One member of the Board of Supervisors, Warren Dorn, ex-1 pressed his disapproval of the article and compared it to an ex-1 hibit at the Los Angeles County, Art Museum last year. Dorn had ' vehemently denounced the exhib it, n presentation of modern art sculpture by Edward Klcnholz which included sculptures of old cars and of couples petting. As a result of Dorn's objections, the exhibit was a great success and attracted thousands of viewers, according to the Daily Bruin. Following his dismissal, Clark Kerr issued a statement saying that one of the major achieve ments was the assurance of stu dent freedom of expression, es pecially for student publications. Governor Reagan, after seeing a copy of Intro, was reported on a television news program as being "inarticulate with rage." Reagan said that "anybody who would print anything like this (Grosz's picture) is sick.” INTRO editor Diehl said that he plans to light for the rights of students to speak and act free ly. "Our voices have not been si lenced by cowardice,” he said. The (wo students, Alan Bock and Jeraldinc Anderson, said that objeetionuble material in the Daily Bruin “has a tendency to generate in the minds of the gen eral public a belief that students at UCLA are lewd and dissolute." Meanwhile, the Los Angeles County Attorney’s office, which has reviewed the ease, has re ported that there is probably no legal action that can be taken against the student newspaper, In light of recent freedom of the press decisions.
