Continued from Page 1
"He said, If you put this up, I
will kill you. I'll punch you
right into that fil«* cabinet and
they will have to come drag you
out of this office.'" Lee said.
Masat and Lee then got into a
political debate about each
other's backgrounds and
upbringing. Lee said.
"Masat told me that 1 was
more whiter than him and he
was more progressive than mu."
he said. "Ho said he was from a
poor background and had to
struggle."
I>*e said he told Masat that his
father came to the United States
after escaping from the Korean
War with $50 in his pocket Leu
said uftor hearing the story about
his father. Masat began nfaking
fun of Koreans.
"He called me a Korean f—
und said my dad was a Korean
ass and probably works for the
intelligence agency," Lee said.
Lee said Masat then called
luckie Gibson. ASUO mediation
director, and asked her to come
down the the IFC office. Gibson
came to the office for about 10
minutes but was unsuccessful in
resolving the conflict. Lee said.
Gibson was unavailable for
comment.
Lea left the office about 5:30
p.m. and went to OPS and filed
racial and physical intimidation
charges against Masai
Masat said that Lee's version
of what happened in the IFC
office is a lie and Lee was being
irrational and was responsible
for starting the confrontation
"He came into the office jeer
ing at me about how funny it
was that he was going to screw
me over." he said
Masat said he did not say any
of the the things that Lee claims
he did. He said he never threat
ened Lee and never made any
racist comments during the con
frontation over the meeting
memo. Masat also said he did
not push Lee into the wall
"I never touched him." he
said. “I didn't come within five
feel of Bobby in the office that
day."
Masat said he did take down
the meeting notice because he
believed the notice was for an
illegal meeting. Masat said the
May 20 IFC meeting, in which
the IFC attempted to remove
Masat as the committee chair,
was not legal because he had not
approved it.

which the band will be allowed to perform. These conditions include
establishing ways to manage the drug and alcohol problems that have
accompanied the I Mind's appearance in previous years
However. Ken Sherman, head of publicity at Double Tee. said a
decision has been made and the Gruteful Dead show is booked for
August.
"I'm sure it's been completely booked," Sherman said "As fnr as
I know the requirements have been satisfied."
Sherman said he is not sure what negotiations have actually taken
place between Double Tee and the University. Kick Oh Ison, owner
of the promotions agency, said he would not comment ubout the
event until a later date.
Williams denied that any decision had been made and said the
University is still discussing the possibility of a summer concert with
the promoters. The University, he said, is not at issue with the band
but is concerned with the problems caused by individuals attending
the concert and does not want to associate itself with abusive alco
hol and drug use.
The Grateful Dead last performed at Autzen Stadium in |une 1990.
attracting a crowd of 60,000, In October 1990. after a decade of sum
mer shows, the group was banned from the stadium.
Even though the 1990 performance brought 5200,000 in revenue
to the athletic department, the group was banned because Williams
had received numerous letters complaining that allowing The Grate
ful Dead to appear at Autzen Stadium was condoning drug use at the
University.
However, at the time the decision wus made, several University
officials said there was a good possibility they would let I he Grate
ful Dead return in the future Several petitions were passed around
campus by students to persuade the administration to reconsider
their decision.
“It was all pretty struight forward.” Williams said. "At the time
The Grateful Dead's performance had a strong association with abu
sive drug and alcohol use.
Williams said he is not certain when the concert would bo even if
an agreement were signed. Sandy Walton, associate athletic director,
said she will not comment about the event until a decision is made.
