1 Thursday, October 27, 1966 The Daily Nebraskan Page 5 Journalists Suspended After Magazine Banned Washington, D.C. (CPS) The suspension and sub sequent arrest of two stu dent journalists has em broiled Monmouth College in a bitter free press con troversy that is viewed on many sides as a challenge to the entire structure of that institution. Charles P. Kaska and Thomas Breslin, both up pcrclassmen at the New Jersey college, were sus pended for insubordination when they refused repeated orders to cease distributing (heir independent monthly magazine. They have pub lished The Hawker in viola tion of the school's activi ties registration require ments since last February. Following their suspen sion, Kaska and Breslin were ordered to leave the campus; they refused and. were arrested by local po lice for trespassing. Their Initial arraignment the next day was followed by a week of student demonstrations, sit-ins and rallies. There is an air of finality about the lines of battle as they have developed thus far. The administration has accused Kaska and Breslin of deliberately forcing the Issues. The charge is not being denied; the students are playing their hand for all it is worth. "We are fighting a whole machine here," Breslin commented. Both students have vowed to go to jail if necessary and supporters are grimly organizing a class boycott if the two are not reinstated. Kaska and Breslin have received firm support from inside the college and out. The New Jersey state con vention of the American As sociation of University Pro fessors, meeting Oct. 22, en dorsed the actions of t h e Monmouth faculty and the local AAUP chapter in re questing college officials to reinstate the two, to drop civil charges, and to set up a committee to revise col lege policy and insure a free press for students in the future. The administration, how ever, does not appear ready to compromise much eith er. Monmouth President William G. Van .Note said Oct. 24 that the school had no intention of dropping the trespassing charges against the students, due for trial Oct. 25. "This is a prob lem involving the adminis tration and the authorized procedure," he said, "not a popularity contest." Van Note contended that faculty and AAUP state ments as well as student protests should have little to say about an "internal" ad ministrative matter such as this. He rejected efforts to mediate the dispute, saying that there is really nothiifg to mediate. WE NEVER CLOSE ...... ' . !l r r" s "J . ft U l Lowest Prices in Town DIVIDEND BONDED GAS 16th & P Sts. Downtown Lincoln Why was the magazine attacked at this time, after having survived six issues without official comment? According to the two edi tors, The Hawker was banned as a result of an edi torial in the Octobel issue which called for the re moval of a prominent mem ber of the Board of Trus tees. The editorial accused trustee Marcus Daly of a wide variety of unsavory po litical moves in his latest bid to be elected to local office and suggested that the college "exorcise Mr. Daly and replace him with a man whose commitment is to education and to hu manity, and not to himself." .m ' V if;: "i 1& 3 wrj "-'I .. : a m , ' V I if J 1 -3 Li CASHING CHECKS . . . recently has caused problems for the Nebraska Union. Union Hopes For More Coins To Cash Checks Inconsistencies in check cashing procedures at the Nebraska Union have pro voked inquiries from stu dents. Students have com plained that at times they can cash checks for $25 and then two hours later they can't even cash a check for $1. Allen Bennett, Nebraska Union director, explained that the Union is given an amount of cash each day from Administration. The amount appropriated to the Union is just not ade quate, Bennett said, and frequently the money runs out before the end of t h e day and no more checks can be cashed.

COUPON Crusade For Christ Takes Interdenominational Vieiv Crusade for Christ has come to campus to make a dynamic impact on Uni versity students with t h e Christian message, accord ing to Ed Murray. Murray, a junior transfer student from Northwestern University, is the student representative of Crusade for Christ, an interdenomi national evangelistic arm of the Christian Church, which is starting at the Univer sity this semester. Crusade for Christ was started in 1951 at the UCLA campus and has spread to 100 major U.S. colleges and over 20 foreign countries. "We stress a personal re lationship with Christ and the commitment of the whole individual to Him," stated Murray. He continued saying that "students don't seem to have a purpose in life, they ate falling for everything and standing for nothing." Ag Constitution Permits Addition Of New Groups The Ag Executive Board recently enacted a new constitution which will en able any recognized agri culture or home economic organization to have rep resentation on the Board. According to Dave Syn der, ASUN senator, the new constitution allows for the addition of new groups and the disbandment of old ones. Synder said that basical ly there were no changes from the original constitu tion, but only a moderniza tion of its wording. The Ag Executive Bord is,composed of one repre sentative from each of the organizations on the Ag Campus and the four ASUN senators from the Ag College. Presently there are about 23 mem bers on the Board, Snyder said. The main purpose of the Board is to co-ordinate the activities of the agricul tural and home economic organizations on the East Campos, according to Sny der. He also noted that the Board acts as a focal According to M u r r a y, commitment to Christ is the answer to all problem. The group is involved in weekly discussion groups that meet Tuesday nights in the Nebraska Union. These meetings are open to all University students. Special discussion groups will also be held in individual living units. "We have already had two meetings in a sorority and fraternity house," said Murray. According to Murray, the four main points in the Campus Crusade's message are: God lives you and has a wonderful plan for your life; man is sinful and se parated from God; Jesus Christ is God's only provi sion for man's sin; and man must receive Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord by per sonal invitation. Murray describes h i s group as "conservative" point for the dissemena tion of information con cerning the individual groups and University cur riculum. Snyder said that the main social function of the Board is the Ag Barbecue which is held in the fall of each year. The purpose of the bar becue is to acquaint fresh men with the Ag College and to raise funds to fi nance the activities of the Ag Executive Board. The Board sponsors sev eral activities for agricul ture and home economics students such as scholar ships. The Board also works to improve the East Campus through joint actions of the Board's Campus Improve ment Committee and the University. A Convocations commit tee is presently trying to get speakers who will talk before agriculture and home economics students. On Dec. 8, the Board will sponsor a Job Opportun ity Day to be held at t h e East Campus for all Ag College students.
