Now Soledad 7
Seven charged with murder
By GIL JOHNSON
College Press Service
SALINAS, Calif. (CPS)-Seven
black inmates of Soledad prison
were charged last week with
murder, conspiracy to murder,
and assault on an officer. Under
California laws applying to
prisoners, the seven will be
automatically executed if con
victed on any of these charges.'
The charges stemmed from the
Philatelists
form club
A stamp club is being formed
on campus.
Formally called a philatelic
society, the club is being initiated
by University student Paul
Chung.
Chung said he is forming the
club because “there are quite a
few collectors around,” and also,
“there is a stamp club downtown,
but it doesn’t function quite well
enough.”
According to Chung, the club
will meet regularly to trade
stamps and also correspond with
other students overseas in order
to trade stamps by mail.
All kinds of collectors are
welcome, Chung said, from those
who collect all types of stamps to
those who are only “topical”
collectors.
Information on the club can be
obtained by writing to Chung at
P.O. Box 3342, campus.
Chairman to
receive award
M. Frances Dougherty,
chairman of the department of
dance at the University, is to
receive one of three awards
presented annually to out
standing alumni of Northern
Colorado University in Greeley,
Colorado.
The award, Outstanding
Woman Educator of the Year,
will be presented to Miss
Dougherty, during Homecoming
activities on the Colorado
campus this weekend.

Thursday only
murder of prison guard William
Shull, who was stabbed to death
July 22 while distributing athletic
equipment from a small building
adjoining a prison exercise yard.
Shull’s death is the second
murder this year in Soledad, one

George Jackson, John Cluchette,
and Fleeta Drumgo—were
charged, and will face trial soon
in San Diego. In August,
Jackson's brother, John, was
killed by police following the
kidnapping of a Marin county
judge. The judge was to have
been held in exchange for the
release of the three, known
nationally as the Soledad
Brothers.
Now add to the list O.C. Allen,
26, serving five to life for rob
bery; Jimmy James, 23, one to
life for robbery; Jesse Philips, 20,
life for murder; Walter Watson,
24, one to life for robbery; Alfred
Dunn, 20, five to life for robbery;
James Warner, 21, one to life for

robbery; and Roosevelt
Williams, 27, five to life for
robbery.
Like the first three Soledad
Brothers, these seven were also
known in the prison of political
organizing among black inmates.
The seven defendants,
represented by radical Bay Area
lawyer Patrick Hallinan, ap
peared for arraignment Sept. 29.
Chained, shackled and hand
cuffed, they all enter pleas of not
guilty.
During the arraignment, the
municipal judge denied everyone
of Hallinan’s motions, including
one to have their hands cuffed in
front of them so that they could
lean against the backs of their
chairs.
The seven are currently being
held in the prison’s “adjustment
center”—which is solitary
confinement. They each get one
hour of exercise a day, repeated
interrogation, and have been kept
from seeing their attorney save
for one brief occasion.
