In ‘Kangaroo court ’ Loveys ousting considered By KEN MAYS Of the Emerald Larry Taylor, Mike Bonner, Hank Itkin and Mike Ignatius, all former members of the ASUO Governing Committee, met Monday to decide on im peachment proceedings for ASUO Vice President Fred Loveys and the ASUO Elections Board. The purpose of the meeting was questionable, since under Amendment “A”, — which passed 700. to 243 during last week’s general election, the governing committee is defunct. Although the senate is still contesting the validity of the election, ASUO President Bill Wyatt declared the election valid Monday and proceeded to close the doors to any further senate actions. In a memorandum issued Monday, ASUO controller Tom Johnson stated that “as of February 26, 1973, the budget for the ASUO Senate is frozen completely. They are not per mitted to schedule rooms, use the print shop, retain anyone on payroll, use the Watts line or Tele-Pak or use State cars. Those organizations who have allocations under the Senate’s budget will still have access to their funds.” The memorandum went on to remove committee chairers Gordon King, Peggy O’Farrell, Bob Reno and Fred Wasson and Senate President Cliff Zukin from the payroll. Senate secretary Anne Tileston will remain on payroll to tend office matters. Although the former chairman of the governing committee, Gordon King, was absent, the four ex-senators met undaunted. “We have to go mi the assumption that the election was invalid and the senate still exists,” said Itkin. The meeting was held in the senate conference room because the usual meeting place of the governing com mittee, 315 EMU, was locked in compliance with Wyatt’s orders to curtail room scheduling by the senate. Taylor, Itkin, Bonner and Ignatius voted to impeach the Elections Board and Loveys. Ignatius referred to the meeting as a “kangaroo court,” and said that he didn’t think they knew whether any of the board members were guilty of elections violations. “I don’t think we’re reviewing any evidence,” he said. But Itkin claimed that the board was responsible for the violations. “I’d say we re within our rights to impeach every one of them,” he said. The resolution to impeach the elections board passed two to one. The four ex-senators then voted three to zero to impeach Loveys. Itkin presented several elections complaints in support of the impeachment. Most referred to Loveys’ use of German ballot slogans. Itkin felt they were “discriminating against the students who are unable to un derstand German.” After the meeting, Bonner said that “the only people that see the senate as being duly abolished are the executives.” EMU Director Dick Reynolds, contacted after the meeting, commented on the lock-out procedures. “If the election was valid, that was the proper thing for Wyatt to do,” he said. He declined to comment on whether he felt the election was valid or not. But in reference to the Senate deciding on the validity of an election concerning its own abolishment, he said “it does seem ridiculous that an outgoing government would have to give its consent.” “No governing body is better than the people who are willing to accept it,” he added. Election complaints filed by ex-senators Two complaints regarding alleged election violations oc curring in last week’s general elections have been filed by former senators John Stewart and Hank Itkin. The complaints charge that ASUO President Bill Wyatt and Vice President Fred Loveys violated Section I, clauses A and B of the ASUO Election Rules. Clause A protects the best in terests of the Student Body in ASUO Elections. Clause B states that the “fairness and equality of the electoral process is to be Drug analysis report issued The Drug Information Center has issued its 12th drug analysis report and with it a warning that an animal tranquilizer is being passed off as THC. “The Drug Information Center has now found seven samples of PCP in the Eugene-Springfield area. PCP (Phencyclidine-Semyl or Semylan) is a potent animal tranquilizer. In humans it is a powerful hallucinogen with a number of adverse side effects. To date, all samples of alleged THC have been analyzed to be PCP,” the report said. Listed below are the results of the 13 samples tested in this report. EO-l-31-Ol.

Loveys said that he could do nothing with the complaints, since there is nobody to consider them. Amendment “A”, which passed 700 to 243 in the elections, abolished the senate and the Elections Court. Loveys also commented that the two ex-senators which had filed the complaints had already filed to run for positions on the five-person incidental fee committee which was created by the abolishment amendment. 10:10 pm •der 'KrtttU - 7 SeleeUr** far Sri* 0ttO*X-7»t 91.1 f 1 A GIFT BRINS ISIS M TS ART CHRISTIAN SCIENCE CHURCH SERVICE IN EHSERE and a copy of the Christian Science textbook, SCIENCE AND HEALTH WITH KEY TO THE SCRIPTURES by Mary Baker Eddy, will be our gift teyou.
