To McheSS's Charges Closed Hearing Scheduled On Controversial Case Four members of the University administration have responded to charges made by Dr. C. Clyde Mitchell, former professor of, agri cultural economics and chairman of the Department of Agricultural Economics. Those responding to Dr. Mitch ell's allegations were Chancellor Hardin, Dean of Faculties A. C. Breckenridge, Dean W. V. Lambert of the College of Agriculture, and J. E. Selleck, University business manager. A closed hearing of the Univers ity Faculty Committee on Priv ilege and Tenure will be held at 2:30 p.m., Feb. 21, in room 107, Law Building. The hearing will not be open to the press, David Dow, chairman of the faculty commit tee stated. The pending case of Mitchell before the Committee on Academ ic Privilege and Tenure, involves the charges of Dr. Mitchell that his academic freedom has been violated. Mitchell called for an investiga tion into the specific causes of his removal from the chairmanship of the agricultural economics depart ment. The first hint of the possible de motion of Dr. C. Clyde Mitchell from his position as chairman of the department of agricultural ec onomics came on April 12, 1956. Rumors reached the Nebraskan that the decision, called "irrevo cable and final" had been an nounced at a staff meeting of the department of agricultural econ omics held shortly before spring vacation. Persons in attendance said the demotion was due to "out side pressures" which were not clearly defined at the meeting. On April 17 the rumor was con firmed when W. V. Lambert, Dean of the College of Agriculture, an nounced after consultation with the Chancellor that a successor to Mitchell was being sought. The reason given by Lambert was "to strengthen beyond pres ent levels the research and ex tension programs in agricultural economics." The Dean denied that his decision involved Dr. Mitchell's tenure. The Nebraskan wrote to many outside sources concerning the is sue. Returns indicated a high de gree of confidence in Mitchell's ability. Certain professors pre viously connected with the Uni versity indicated that the stand of are being asked to recruit workers. The goal for Work Day is $1,000, Miss Craig said. All profits will go into the Hungarian Student Proj ect fund which now stands at ap proximately $1,600. Persons wishing to employ stu dents may call 2-4328 at any hour of 2-2079 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Calls for jobs will be taken Mon day, Tuesday and Wednesday. Miss Craig said jobs will be as signed to students in advance with two students being sent on each job if possible. IFC Meeting There will be a special meeting of the IFC Wednesday at 7 p.m. in the Union for the purpose of hear ing Rabbi CiPipckem and the Rev.

For a girl who has only studied our language for three weeks at Bard College in New York, Sara is quick to pick up English words. She can understand her instruc tors and is able to converse slowly in English with others. Sara carries an English-Hungarian dictionary with her at all times to look up words she doesn't understand. She thinks our lan guage "is very difficult to learn". Attending school in Dunas centgyorgy, Hungary, she studied chemical engineering with other Hungarian and Russian students. Before escaping over the bor der to Austria, Sara participated in the demonstrations. She later escaped with her 'cousin and his family during ' the night without her parent's knowledge. Her par ents are still in Hungary. Sara came to t'ie United States by plane from Austria and stayed first H the Nebraskan that the removal was a moral violation of academic freedom was in part true and that similar situations existed in other colleges of the University. On May 15, the Chancellor issued a statement in which he denied that the University had in any case violated the spirit of the prin ciples of academic freedom. On May 23, Mitchell issued a special statement to the Nebras kan saying his academic freedom had been violated.

He said he was ad vised "to resign my position and move elsewhere, assured that I would never get a salary increase, and that I was on the Regents blacklist." He maintained that "In Feb. 1955, because of con tinued controversy over my views, I was told that I was going to be relieved of my chairmanship." It was reported on Dec. 14 that Dr. Mitchell was not planning to return to Lincoln to appear before the Senate Committee on Academ ic Tenure and Privilege, but that he would inform David Dow when he made his final decision.
