WEDNESDAY, MARCH 22, 1967 The Daily Nebraskan Page 3 ASUN Adviser , , . Students Won't B e Given Everything In Rights Bill By Dan Looker Junior Staff Writer The proposed Student Bill of Rights is "ft statement of what the students want and of what they expect to get," ASUN faculty adviser, Dr. Steven Ross said Tues day. "The Student Bill of Rights in a sense embodies the maximum program of the students and I think the administration probably will make some concessions but they will not be willing to grant the students all of what they want," Ross con tinued. Economics Blocks Article 5 "The critical point in the bill is Article V, which deals with free choice of h o u s i n g," he explained. The administration cannot accept it because they have an economic commitment to fill the new dorms they have built." "They have to fill the dorms in order to pay off the bonds which financed them, and the only way to guarantee filling them is force the students to live in University approved housing." Article 5, Petition Amendment Conflict A court case would prob ably result if students pass both the second alternative to Article 5 in the proposed Bill of Rights and a peti tion amendment on hous ing, according to ASUN President Terry Schaaf. He explained., that stu dents who favor the peti tion amendment stating, "Each student shall have the right to choose his liv ing environment" should logically vote for the orig inal version of Article 5 at the April 12 election. Original Wording The original wording of Help Week Helps Syford Home Job Maintenance of yellow Sy ford home at 17th and S Streets, which was recent ly purchased by the His torical Society to be re st o r e d as a museum is being done partially this week by the Beta Theta Pi pledge class as a part of Help Week, according to pledge trainer, Phil Bowen. The house was built in the early 1880's on what was then known as Grant Street (17th Street), according to Marvin Kivett, Historical Society director. "The house is an outstand ing example of late Victori an architecture," Kivett said.

"The administration can say they've already given the students that (the amended article 5, 'maximum- participation') or they can set up some phony committee that has no pow er and push the students back into the dorms." Equation of Negotiation Ross explained that, in gaining official acceptance of the Student Bill of Rights, "what the students can actually get in reality is a function of the negoti ating power of the students and of the administration." "In any negotiating func tion both sides have strength is the ability to strike and demonstrate and the major administration strength is their ability to suspend students for mis conduct." "The only counter that the students would have to suspensions by the admini stration would be to have so many demonstrators that the administration couldn't Article 5, "students have the right to choose their own living environment" is so similar to the petition amendment that there would be no conflict, Sch aaf said. If both the original ver sion and the petition amend ment pass, one would sim ply be dropped because there would be no need for two articles saying the same thing, he added. Illogical It would, however, be il logical, he said, for students to vote for both the petition and the alternate version of Article 5 which states, "Students have the right to an equitable role in form ulation of housing policy which allows maximum in dividual choice." He explained that stu dents who favor the origi nal version of Article 5 should either vote for the petition amendment or sim ply not vote and those who favor the alternate version of Article 5 should vote against the petition amendment. auentins 1229 R St. SPRING SUITS IN BRIGHT COLORED WOOLENS BUY FOR EASTER NOW!

Budget Lever Ross emphasized that "before the University budg et is passed by the Legis lature, the administration will be in a conciliatory mood. They don't want any trouble and they will be more anxious to keep the students pacified before the budget is passed and not so anxious after it is passed." Power Strokes Ross outlined four me thods of gaining acceptance of the goals embodied in the proposed Student Bill of Rights: First, direct neogiatlons with the administration; Second, threatening a stu dent strike; Third, holding an actual student strike; and Fourth, mass resignations of all student senators with public explanations al though he admitted that the administration might be more than happy to see the ASUN out of the way. "Any of these steps could be taken any time but the threat of doing these things would be more effective prior to the pass age of the University budg et," he added. Eight Predictions When queried on admin istration aceptance of spe cific articles in the Student Bill of Rights Ross replied, The students will get ad ministrative approval of Ar ticles 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 10, 12, 15 and 16 without any trou ble." "They'll get Article 4 as defined by the administra tion. They'll probably get Article 8, they might get Article 9 and they've al ready got Article II in prac tice," he continued. 'I don't think they'll get acceptance of Article 13, or at least there'll be a fight over it, and I imagine they'll have a lot of trou ble getting Article 14 ac cepted." Bffl Of Rights Ross said that "basically I regard the propsed Stu dent Bill of Rights as the best of a bad situation since I'm completely opposed to the idea of in loco paren tis in the first place." When asked to compare the United States Bill of Rights to the Student Bill of Rights Ross answered, "Just remember that the American Bill of R i g h t s came AFTER a successful revolution, not before." 432-3645 16.00 $3 00 1 ht , Up (Me. feroiceY CENTURY UNUULN, nuiiwoiui 8601 l-J r- L I 1 (Oilait.kr.

After deliberating for about 3 hours the jury of the First District Court of the State of Nebraska found Steen guilty on all six of the counts he had been charged with. Since the maximum pen alty is $1000 and one year in the county jail for each count, Steen faces a maxi mum penalty of $6000 and 6 years in the county jail. Defer Sentence Steen said that the judge would defer sentence "at least until we ask for a new trial." He said that he would appeal his case to the Ne Student Senate To Hear Case On Loyalty Oath The Student Senate Wednesday will hear about a University student's re fusal to sign the loyalty oath required for National Defense Education Act (NSEA) loans. Senator Liz Aitken, chair man of the Public Issues Committee, will introduce Dan Dickmeyer and his lawyer, Pat Healy, to dis cuss the problem of loyalty oaths. Healy is the Lincoln representative of the Amer ican Civil Liberties Union (ACLU). Get NU Out Dickmeyer said he is con fident ASUN "will support my view and take the first step toward getting the Uni versity out of the loyalty oath business." ASUN can not take any action on the case except to pass a resolution backing Dickmeyer's stand, Roger Doerr, senate vice-president said. Teachers Advisory Board Other senate business Wednesday will include a vote on the constitution for LIFELIKE 435-6288 1 RINGS J braska Supreme Court if the request for a retrial was not granted. "We feel that it will be necessary to take it to the federal courts to win," Steen continued. "We will take the case to the United States Supreme Court if necessary even though the District Fed eral Court should decide in our favor. The Nebraska law is absolutely unconsti tutional." Deliberation Short Steen said that the deliber ation period was unusually short since the jury had to consder two novels and five magazines, besides a calen dar. "My lawyer had empha sized that the jury should read the articles in the mag azines as well as look at the pictures," Steen added. "The jury deliberated for such a short period of time that the judge though it was Teachers College advisory board. Senator Mel Schlachter will ask for a provisional acceptance of the constitu tion, Doerr said, because the document does not pro vide for faculty advisers. Doerr explained the Bill of Rights calls for elimi nation of advisers. So the senate will wait until this article is implemented be fore taking further action on the constitution. FM Radio Station ASUN will also vote on the student FM radio station constitution which will be gin broadcasting next fall. Bob Samuelson, second vice-president will report on the polling places for the senate elections April 12. An ad hoc committee re port will be presented by senator Tom Briggs recom mending that the executive members of senate be sal aried next year, Doerr said. OPEN DAILY 1 P.M. Pool Tablw . . .

Steen's lawyers, John and James McArthur, had sought to introduce published liter ary criticism of Candy, one of the novels considered ob scene, as evidence of the book's literary value. English Professors The prosecution, under Deputy County Atty. William Blue, objected to the use of University English professors as evidence and District Judge William Hastings up held his objection. Steen said Sunday that "as far as I know Candy is sold most places east of L i n coln. I have seen books like Candy, Fanny Hill, and Trop ic of Cancer on sale in towns like Irvington and Fremont. This was about a year and a half ago but as far as I know they're still selling them." He said that he had spent $650 on his defense so far. "Of course five-hundred of that is a bond which I'll even tually get back ' when the case is settled." Publishing Companies "I am paying part of the costs, part are being paid by donations, and the rest will ultimately be payed by pub lishing companies," Steen continued. He said that three-fourths of the items he is being tried for selling are published by one company and that the company will pay three fourths of the costs of his trials. "Another company may pay one-eighth of the costs," he added.
