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."

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.

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

to be considered constitu
tional. 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.
