Pumpkin smasher free on $500 bail Former University student Francis Harris has been released on bail and her district court arraignment set for this Friday in connection with a pumpkin smashing at the University’s ROTC headquarters. Mrs. Harris, who was charged with defacing a building for allegedly smashing a pumpkin in the hallway of the ROTC building during an anti-war demon stration last Wednesday, was released on $500 bail. Her attorney was granted a five-day postponement on her arraignment in district court Friday to allow him time to familiarize himself with the case and to enter a plea. The charges were filed by Col. Elbert Curtis, head of the University’s military science department. Curtis said he was left with no choice other than to file a district court warrant in the matter, since Mrs. Harris, a non-student, was not liable under the student conduct code. Curtis has estimated that total damages during the demonstration to the ROTC building, including the pumpkin smashed on the rug, were in the neighborhood of $100.

Grattan Kerans Russ Mustola Editor Business Manager Damages besides the smashed pumpkin included a spilled cup of coffee, which also stained the hallway rug, bums in the rug caused by cigarettes and chalked slogans of “OFF ROTC”, which were written on the inside walls of the building. It is unlikely that charges will be brought against students through the conduct code in connection with the incident according to Don McCarty, co ordinator of the student conduct program. McCarty said Friday that he was unable to determine whether damages were caused by students or non-students, so no charges would be brought forth. He added, however, that if there were any knowledge that a student caused some of the damages, “we would move against them.” Ill EUGENE k DOWNTOWN PARK Entire Stock of COATS & JACKETS PRICE THIS INCLUDES OUR: LEATHERS ★ WOOLS ★ COTTON SUEDES ★ CORDOROYS * BILL BAKER’S MENS WEAR ON CAMPUS MONDAY, FEBRUARY 1,1971 9:30 am—ESCAPE staff meeting 12:00 noon—Spanish language table 12:30 pm—Man and His environment meeting 7:30 pm—Folk dancing—Gerlinger Old Gym First aid course outdoor program 8:00 pm—English dept, film: "Barren Lives"—180 PLC Chamber music series—Dimov Quartet—Recital Hall TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 2,1971 9:00 am- Department of Special Education faculty meeting ESCAPE funding meeting 11:30 am—Richs' action group Campus Crusade for Christ 12 00 noon—Bureau Governmental Research services staff meeting Italian language table 3:30 pm—Christian Science executive board meeting Computing Center user tutorials—313 Allen 6:30 pm—Alpha Kappa Psi—101 Comm. 7:30 pm—Huston Smith lecture Department of Religious Studies WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 3. 1971 10 00 am—OSEA bargaining council meeting 1130 am—Intercollegiate Athletics committee meeting—Faculty club Japanese language table 12 00 noon—Political Science staff meeting Interior Architecture meeting—Faculty club 12 30 pm—Portuguese language table 3:00 pm—Pending A2 basketball tournament meeting 3:30 pm—Faculty meeting—150 Science 6:30 pm—Chess club meeting Bridge instruction—Faculty club Baptist Student Union meeting 7:00 pm—Duplicate Bridge meeting—Faculty club 7.30 pm—Huston Smith lecture Department of Religious Studies 7 45 pm—Pi Mu Epsilon meeting—208 Deady 8:00 pm—"The Gifts" biology department film—123 Science Faculty Recital—Victor Steinhardt— Recital Hall 8 45 pm- Rampant Inner Peace Campus Crusade for Christ— Gerlinger Sid Floor THURSDAY.
