THURSDAY, OCTOBER 31, 1968 The Daily Nebraskan Page 3 Students betvare Accidents do happen . . . often on Saturday If you're a student, it's more likely that you'll hurt yourself on a Saturday than any other day. according to E. w! Simpson, Jr., Chief of the Division of Environmental Health and Safety of the Stu dent Health Services. This statement is made on the basis of information gathered throughout the year on both Lincoln campuses and from the School of Medicine by the Division. Simpson explained that all student and employee ac cidents that are treated by the Student Health Services are reported to his office. By tabulating these reports it is possible to chart the incidence of occurence of all kinds of accidents. FROM INFORMATION gathered in this way, the Division is able to reduce the Student vote possible on Washington Regent Board There is a possibility that one Washington State student will be given a voting membership on the Board of Regents at Washington State College in Pullman, Wash. The Board of Control voted to support a resolution by the Council of Washington State Student Body Presidents to include at least one student on the boards of trustees of the state's five colleges and universities according to the Washington State Evergreen. DURING A joint news con ference Saturday with the student body presidents, Gov. Unamerican activities group investigating . . . Coup d'etat in Kentucky? Pikeville, Ky. (CPS) - Bib overalls, out-of-state license plates, and singing of "We Shall Overcome" were in troduced as evidence of un American activities during an investigation of Appalachian Volunteers here last week.

For instance, the athletic safety glass program has greatly reduced the number of in juries resulting from eyeglass injuries in athletics. A program of safety glasses for University employees has saved perhaps as many as five eyes in the past year, Simpson said. Along the same line, a program of ear plugs for employees in noisy situa tions has been introduced to reduce loss of hearing. The Division also conducts continuing programs of fire and machinery safety, he said. It is also on the lookout for dangerous situations in University buildings and liv ing units. He continued that all living units are inspected regularly and that dangerous situations in class buildings Dan Evans stated that he favors the proposal. Evans said the resolution was "a useful and necessary thing." He added that there is a need for greater com munication among students, faculty and trustees. ACCORDING to Ray Crabbs, ASWSU president, "Student welfare is totally involved in many decisions made by the Boards in both open and executive sessions. Also, the regents and trustees have few opportunities to solicit student opinion on issues directly affecting the university community." The Kentucky Un-American Activities Committee (KUAC) held hearings on allaged seditious activities in Eastern Kentucky, a culmination of a conflict that erupted last year when five anti-poverty workers were indicted on charges of plotting to overthrow the country government. THE STATE law on which the charge were based was later ruled unconstitutional by a federal court. The dispute i n c u d e s Pikeville College, a small liberal arts school headed by Dr. Thomas Johns. He fired local residents by hiring pro fessors opposed to the Viet nam war and by holding open forums on strip mining. DR. JOHNS' critics protest that the college is becoming too liberal, but the president has continued his new policies. "What I'm going to do is run the best educational institution I can, Which means I'm going to demand that the issues facing our society be discussed, investigated and NFYAS will speak to Nebraska towns This weekend members of the Nebraskans for Young Adult Suffrage (NFYAS) will distribute literature and talk with residents in 27 Nebraska communities according to Dave Piester, NFYAS chairman. The campaign is part of "Young Adult Suffrage Weekend," he said. It is being planned in anticipation of the election, Nov. 5, when Nebraska voters will decide on Amendment No. 1, a pro posal that would reduce the volng age In Nebraska to 19. THE ENERGY with which young people are going into the weekend is "just a further demonstration of the interest and concern young Nebraskans have in political matters," Piester continued. He urged that "this energy and enthusiasm should be channeled into the democratic process where it can benefit Nebraska the most." PIES TE R CONTINUED that the group seeks to "further inform Nebraska voters of the facts about the amendment, and its wide are noted and corrected. "IT WOULDbea great deal of help to us, however, if the students would report these things to us," he said. He continued that since students are in constant con tact with the buildings, they notice things that are wrong more readily. He urged students who see dangerous situations; loose banisters, missing stairs, etc., to report them to his office in the basement of the Student Health Center. There are a few other in teresting facts that have come from the Division's research. Most employees are injured on Wednesdays and the most common time is around the coffee break. Ac cidents for students reaches its peak in the month of April. Simpson explained, "Spring fever." Crabbs stated that the pro posal will be written up and mailed to Evans. "From here on," he said, "it will be up to the governor." "IN MY opinion," declared Crabbs, "Gov. Evans has enough influence to get so meone to introduce this legislation and get it passed without much trouble." At the meeting, the Board of Control also considered submitting a proposal to the adm inistration for the establishment of a student faculty committee for the dismissal of faculty members. analyzed." he said. One of the anti-poverty workers indicted for sedition, Alan McSurely (He wore bib overalls), charged recently in a radio broadcast that Pike County was run by a "courthouse gang" working for a few coal-mine operators. He also said it was not illegal or wrong to work for peaceful change in government. THE STATEMENT prompted the local prosecutor to say, "I want to warn McSurely that if he calls on Russian tanks to help him conquer Pike County, I intend to appeal to Mayor (Richard) Daley of Chicago and (Former Ala.) Gov. George Walance for help in defending Pike County." The KUAC committee left without naming any Com munists or taking any action other than recommending less political involvement by AV's And latest reports indicate that no tanks have been spoted yet in Eastern Ken tucky. spread state and national support." A car-caravan of forty University of Nebraska students will make tours throughout the state Friday and Saturday, he said. They will stop in 27 towns and cities, where they will talk to residents and contact news media representatives. A house-to-house canvass Sunday in Lincoln, Omaha, and several other com munities will conclude the weekend activities. Much of this work will be done by high school students. PIESTER SAID that Amendment No. 1 has been endorsed by all three Presidential candidates, the state Republican and Democratic parties, the American Legion Veterans of Foreign Wars, the AFL-CIO, the Natioanl Education Association, and almost all state office holders and political candidates. The Amendment is also being supported by many of the state's newspapers. pun. ja-' jiataawwoJe forth.

"My public image is grossly exaggerated," he claims. "Nobody lives like Perry Mason, except maybe Ray mond Burr." THE 35-YEAR-OLD criminal lawyer has gained both fame and notoriety for his defenses of Sam Shep pard, Carl Coppolino, Albert DeSalvo, the self-proclaimed "Boston Strangler," and Charles Schmidt, the "Pied Piper of Tucson." In his speech to the Arizona Bombing halt supported by collegiate poll Minneapolis, Minn. (ACP) A majority of the nation's col lege newspaper editors favor stopping all bombing in Viet nam in order to further peace negotiations. The poll was conducted by Associated Collegiate Press during the second week of Oc tober before rumors became persistent that the United States had made such a pro posal and was based on a computerized sample and a mail ballot to 10 percent of all college editors. EDITORS WERE asked: Regarding the conflict in Viet nam and peace negotiations, I favor (a) stopping all bombing, (b) increased mili tary effort to deal from strength and (c) a middle course of military action. Results indicated 52 per cent favored stopping all bombing, 24 per cent in creased military action, 22 per cent a middle course and 2 per cent called for stopping all bombing and immediate withdrawal. Breakdown of the respon dents by sex showed 35 per cent were women and 65 per cent men. JLLmmJt.

Bailey said an average murder case requires over 500 hours of advance preparation. In an extraordinary case such as the trial of Sheppard, thousands of hours are need ed. "THE SEARCH for truth is secondary today," he ex plained. "The criminal lawyer searches instead for evidence which will raise a reasonable doubt that the defendant committed the crime." He said almost anything is admissible as evidence if presented in the right way and almost anything is ob jectionable if presented in the wrong way. "There are two good reasons for video tape," he pointed out. "First, it makes a good record. Second, it is possible to go back over the tape and see the reaction of your client to certain ques tions. This is important in evaluating the credibility of his story and cannot be determined by Just hearing his voice." BAILEY SAID the basis of a good defense depends largely on the defense counsel's confidence that his client is telling the truth. Speed is the utmost im portance to the defense counsel, said Bailey. He commented, "a lawyer should be able to question faster than a lying witness can make up answers." Bailey has had plenty of experience in using these techniques while achieving varying degrees of success since his graduation from the Boston University Law School in 1960.
