Berkeley students support grape
Berkeley (CPS)
University of California
students, already angry about
the regents' refusal to grant
credit for a course being
taught in part by Black
Panther leader Eldridge
Cleaver, have been made
even angrier by the
university's decision not to
join a nationwide boycott of
California table grapes.
Eleven students, eight
Mexican-Americans and three
white coeds, were arrested
Mondav after briefly taking
over the office of University
president Charles Hitch.
Hitch had met with them for
a few minutes, but refused to
change his ruling that the
university will continue to
purchase grapes.
THE STRIKING United
Farm Workers, which is
made up primarily of
California grape pickers and
mostly Mexican-Americans,
have called for a boycott on
buving and eating grapes un
til the growers recognize their
union. Their strike and
bovcott have won wide sup
port among California liberals
(including a recent endorse
ment of their demands by the
San Francisco City Council),
but they are opposed by such
conservatives as Governor
Ronald Reagan and
Senatorial candidate Max
Rafferty, both Republicans.
Scott Wilson, purchasing
aent for the university, had
announced last week that he
would no longer buy grapes
for the school's cafeteria and
residence halls. President
Hitch then issued an order
that campuses should not
"discontinue the furnishing of
anv food product as a policy
decision, but only if there H
not sufficient demand to
make continued service
economical."
The Berkeley purchasing
o'fice announced that it would
not buy grapes anyway.
Richard llafner, a university
spokesman, said the decision
was made, noi in support 01

federation (MASC), had ob
jected to the purchase of
grapes. "We feel our in
terpretation follows the in
tention of the President's
memo," he said. "It is a local
response to a local request."
The decision seems unlikely
to mollify the Mexican
American students, although
it may cost them some sup
port among white students.
Other UC campuses still
serve grapes, and the
university has not agreed to
support the boycott or to
grant other demands the
students have made. They
plan a rally Thursday to an
nounce their next step.
Monday's arrests came
after about 20 students, most
of them Mexican-American,
went to Hitch's office to try
and see him. After waiting all
day, a delegation of five was
admitted to his office. When
he refused to change his
position a number of other
students entered his office
and said they would stay until
Hitch changed his mind.
At about 6 p.m. university
police arrived and arrested
the 11 who were still in the
office. A crowd of about 100

students had gathered by the
time that they were finally
brought from the building.
The students did not resist
arrest. Among. those arrested
was Manuel Degado, presi
dent of MASC.
STUDENTS HELD a rally
Tuesday noon on Sproul Hall
Plaza, at which they listened
to the group's demands.
Besides calling for Hitch to
change his position and "put
the university solidly in sup
port of the boycott," MASC
demanded:
special scholarships for
children of agricultural
workers; increasing the
special admission of minority
group members from four to
10 per cent of the student body
(there are about 100 Mexican
American students among the
19,000 in the UC system;
California has 2 million Mexican-American
residents) ;
establishment of a Center
for Mexic an-American
Studies at the university;
total amnesty for the 11
arrested students.
The approximately 1000
students at the rally then
marched to University Hall,
which houses Hitch's office
and the rest of the university
wide administration. While
they remained outside the
building chanting, "We want
Hitch." a delegation met with

f
and other university officials.
Rafael Arreola, one of the
students, said Bolton refused
to call Hitch, who was "out of
town" (ten minutes away in
San Francisco). He said
Bolton, who signed the com
plaint against the arrested
students, also said he did not
know who could have the
charges dropped. Another
student, Tony Sedille, said
they were being given "the
runaround."
The students left campus
and marched to the Berkeley
courthouse, where the 11
students were supposed to be
arraigned. But the hearing
was postponed and eight of
the students were in solitary
confinement in Santa Rita
prison. The three coeds were
released on their own
recognizance.

would go on a hunger strike

"We will not be forced,
because we attend the
university, to support the
growers." they said. They
also called for a student
strike if Hitch refuses to give
in.
So far the Mexican
might hurt the farm workers'
movement. They kept
despite the urgings of some
white radicals that they take
over University Hall.
The Mexican-Americans
have strong support among

A resolution passed by the
Nebraska State Conference,
AAUP, Saturday, October
19th, stated:
Opposition to repeal of the
proposed income tax and en
dorsement of all efforts to
educate the public as to the
effects of a repeal of this tax.
Endorsement of
amendments Nos. 2, 7, and
13; those concerned with
higher educational and recom
mendation of a state constitu
tional convention to update the
Nebraska constitution.
On University Teachers and
Federal Investigators, the Ne
braska State Conference of
the American Association of
University Professors takes
cognizance of the fact that
teachers are frequently ap
proached by agents of the Uni
ted States government for in
formation about students.
Questions put by the agents
to the teachers often include
queries pertaining to the loy
alty and political beliefs of the
student.
THE CONFERENCE
wishes to call attention to a
relevant paragraph (II.C.) h
the Joint Statement on the
Rights and Freedoms of
Students, approved by the
Annual Meeting of the AAUP
in Washington, April 26-27,
1968:
Information about student
views, beliefs, and political
associations which professes
acquire in the course of their
work as instructors, advisers,
and counselors should b
considered confidential. Pro
tection against improper
disclosure is a serious pro
fessional obi igation.
