Group boycotts Grateful Dead ban

About 100 students and community members
boycotted the Homecoming football game and ral
lied outside Autzen Stadium Saturday as part of
an ongoing effort to persuade the University ad
ministration to reverse their decision to ban the
Grateful Dead from performing next summer.
The band was banned because the University
administration was concerned about the public
perception of drug use at the concerts. Several
protesters said they believe the decision is hypo
critical.
"Are they going to ban U of O football games
because they have drugs, booze and obnoxious
behavior?" asked John Vance of the Environmen
tal Party.
"It's unfair that they can ban one band and say
others can come.” said University senior |odi
Kami.ill "So some people can enjoy their enter
tainment but we can't enjoy ours.
Kich Gold of Eugene Peaceworks said he was
concerned about the way the decision was
reached.
"It was just an arbitrary decision.” he said.
"We need a sound policy for making decisions.
Who's next? Who are they going to ban next tor
what reason?
‘‘This decision is like the tip of the iceberg,"
he said. "Right now, it's only the Grateful Dead,
but what happens in the future if someone in the
administration thinks someone shouldn’t come
here
University graduate students 1’hil Nebergatl
and Ho Adan said they think the protests will per
suade the administration to reverse its decision
"We think it will make a difference because we
know we're right," Nebergatl said. "It was out of
line with the established policy of decision mak
ing."
Hoth plan to attend a talk by Dan Williams,
vice president for administration, who will dis
cuss the issue Monday at noon in Room 100.
Hendricks Hall.
Adan and Nebergatl said they will continue to
protest and gather signatures on a petition in
hopes of resolving the matter in a mutually ac
ceptable way But they said if the decision is not
reversed soon, they will consider legal action.
"We want to solve it as amicably as possible,"
Adan said. "There is talk of legal action, but we
want to exhaust all other possibilities first lajgal
action would la* a last resort."
For Mar
“I have viewed the University of Ore
gon from many perspectives; as a student,
a faculty member, a coach and as an Ore
gon taxpayer.
To maintain a proper balance, every facet
of a university must receive adequate atten
tion; students, faculty and specialized de
partments. Marie Bell understands the
need for balanced support within the uni
versity community rather than focusing on
“pet projects.” She knows tuition, class
size, faculty salaries and accreditation must
receive their fair share of the attention and
funding.
I encourage you to vote for MARIE
BELL, State Representative. District 41.”
