WEDNESDAY, APRIL 19, 1967 The Daily Nebraskan Page 3 Loyalty Oath Is Declared Void By Julie Morrli Senior Writer Nebraska's loyalty oath was declared unconstitution al and void Monday as a result of a case brought against the University Board of Regents by a for mer University employee. Davis Is Featured At Pershing University students will have an opportunity to see the singer-actor-dancer Sam my Davis Jr. this Thursday night, according to Phil Bow on, chairman of the Nebras ka Union Special Events Com mittee. Bowen said Davis will bring his 30 piece orchestra and a comedian act with him t o the show, which will be presented at 8 p.m. in Persh ing Auditorium. "Sammy Davis will also introduce Ter ry Schmidt, Miss University of Nebraska, during the show," he added. UCLA Show "Sammy Davis has just completed a successful show at U.C.L.A. to a sell-out audi ence of 17,000 people," Bow on continued. "This will be one of the few opportunities Nebraska students will ever have to see him in person be cause this is the first college tour he's ever made." Davis, who is considered by many as one of America's most versatile performers, was born into a family of vaudeville performers in New York in 1926 and started per forming at the age of four. He began his career with the Will Mastin Trio and shortly thereafter learned tapdancing from the late Bill ' Bojangles" Robinson. Earl Wilson of the New York Post once wrote that Davis's danc ing reminded him of "liquid rhythmn." Night Club Circuit After serving in the army in World War II Davis played the night club circuit. In 1954 he signed with Decca records as a vocalist and his single releases and albums have of ten appeared on the best-seller lists. In 1956 Davis opened on Broadway in the musical comedy, "Mr. Wonderful." Since then he has appeared in several TV dramatic offer ings and in many well known movies such as "Porgy and Bess," "Ocean Eleven," and "Robin and the Seven Hoods."

WiJUlL First Magaiine tar Sports District Judge Herbert Re nin ruled "in the light of re cent U.S. Supreme Court decisions, it (the oath) is unconstitutional and void." The case was brought by Mrs. Killeen Spangler, a former secretary-typist in the East Campus Depart ment of Information who contended that the oath, re quired of virtually all state employees, was a violation of her personal freedom. Violate Freedoms Ronin said in his deci sion the statutes requiring the signing of the oath by state employees was inval id because they are "uncon stitutionally vague and in definite . . . and for the further reason that they vi olate freedoms of speech, expression and association" guaranteed by the first amendment to the U. S. Constitution. The decision also ordered the Regents to pay Mrs. Spangler $65.11, the balance of her unpaid salary, and court costs. Ronin said he based his ruling on the recent U. S. Supreme Court judgments on state loyalty oaths, and on the March 1967 New Hampshire Supreme Court ruling that that state's loy alty oath is unconstitutional.

Also in this month's Sport, an Most of the recent Su preme Court decisions on state loyalty oaths have been 5-4 decisions, Ronin said. He said his decision was based on the majority reports. He noted that the most re cent Supreme Court rulings on loyalty oaths have been reversals of decisions made in the 1950's when the court was holding loyalty oaths were valid. Most of the pre sent state loyalty oaths were based on these deci sions, he said. The Nebraska oath was written in 1951, probably on the strength of these deci sions, Ronin said. Oaths Are Vague Ronin said most of the loyalty oath decisions have been based on the conten tion that the oaths are too vague in defining what a subversive organization is or what activities should be declared detrimental to the government. He said that recent deci sions call for a loyalty oath that must include the pro vision that the individual "willfully and knowingly" belongs to an organization seeking to overthrow the government and that the individual be "active in the organization" if the oath is Fiancees Hall sophomore in Teach ers from Valentine to Mar ty Kleinschmlt, Alpha Gamma Sigma junior in Animal Science from Hart ington.

Ronin said the Spangler case most closely resem bles the Elfbrandt vs. Rus sell case of 1966 in which the U.S. Supreme Court ruled the Arizona state loy alty oath unconstitutional. Regents Statement The University Regents have not made an official statement of the outcome of the case. Regents President J. G. Elliott said the Regents will decide at their Thursday meeting whether to appeal Ronin's decision. Nebraska state law re quires all state employees with the exception of mem bers of the state legislature and judiciary to sign the loyalty oath. Exempts Everyone Ronin said his decision exempts all such persons from taking the oath and makes it illegal for individ uals to be compelled to sign it. University director of Personnel Roy Loudon was not available Tuesday for a comment on the decision. Mrs. Spangler was fired from her University job over a year ago when she refused to sign the oath. She said she was not asked to sip it until two weeks after she had started work. Named Teachers from Lincoln Steve Eichner, junior to in Teachers from Papuhon.
