Mark Lane
To Address
Students
Kennedy Author
To Appear
New York lawyer Mark
Lane will address University
students Nov. 16 at 3:30 D.m.
in the Nebraska Union Ball
room in conjunction with the
Speaker-Artist Series.
Lane, author of Rush to
Judgement, a best-seller con
cerning the Kennedy assassi
nation, will speak about his
investigation of the Presi
dent's death.
Lane practiced law in New
York for fifteen years before
entering politics. In 1960, with
the support of the last Pres
ident John F. Kennedy and
Senator Hubert Humphrey,
he was elected to the New
York Legislature where he
worked for the abolishment
of capital punishment.
Lane was instrumental in
forming the Citizens Commit
tee of Inquiry after the death
of President Kennedy. He has
researched the facts surround
ing the assassination and the
subsequent murder of Lee
Oswald,

voted.
Only 30 ballots were inval
idated for failure to follow
voting procedure, he indi
cated. "It seems a good majority
of the students are willing to
spend a few cents per semes
ter for a FM station," Bob
Wilson, acting chairman of
the University Broadcasting
Foundation, Inc., said after
receiving the figures.
But he warned that the
students interest in the sta
tion does not guarantee i t s
creation. Ultimately the Uni
versity's Board of Regents
must approve any increase in
student fees.
Authorities Probe
Use Of Marijuana
State Patrol Works
To Find
By ED ICENOGLE
Senior Staff Writer
County attorney Paul Doug
las confirmed Thursday that
an investigation is being con
ducted into the use and pos
session of marijuana at the
University.
According to Douglas, Wil
liam Blue, assistant county
attorney, is working with the
State Highway Patrol on the
investigation.
"The State Patrol is talking
to some students in connec
tion with the case that has al
ready made headlines," Blue
said.
STUDENT
He was referring to the Uni
versity student who withdrew
from the University last
week after reportedly admit
ting the use of marijuana in a
University residence hall.
G. Robert Ross, University
dean of student affairs, said
Wednesday that authorities
were investigating other stu
dents in connection with mar
ijuana violations.
Blue said that students in
volved in the specific case
leading to the student's with
drawal last week are being
questioned by the police.
Blue would not comment on
the nature of involvement of
n r ' IIP
Station
SUGGESTED INCREASE
The suggested increase for
the operation of the station
would be 15 cents a semester.
"Our next big step is form
ing a board of trustees," Wil
son said. "Then we must
secure an initial investment
of $6,000, which would cover
establishing the station and
the first semester of opera
tion." Wilson listed three possible
financial resources: asking
foundations for "initial hand
outs," borrowing the funds
or organizing a financial drive
among the students.
Violators
those students in the case.
INVESTIGATION
Although not commenting
on the investigation being
conducted at the University,'
Sargeant Wayne Rowe, head
of the Drug Control Division
of the State Patrol, outlined
the nature of the division's
drug investigations in gen
eral. "First we try to determine
if there has been a violation
of the law," Rowe said. "If
we do determine this, only the
arrest and gathering evidence
remains."
Forms of evidence include
eyewitness accounts, state
ments and actual proofs of a
crime, he said.
EVIDENCE
"Evidence is really any
thing that proves or dis
proves, charges," he added.
"We rely primarily on con
scientious citizens to report vi
olations," he said. "This is a
part of their civic responsi
bility." Rowe added that "under
cover" agents of the police are
another form of investigation.
Ross had said Wednesday
that, to his knowledge, no
such "student spies" have
been on the University cas
put.
