UNL students marched in front of
the Nebraska Union Thursday night to
protest Paul Cameron, a Lincoln psy
chologist on campus who spoke about

"We know the rules," Iba told the
Daily Nebraskan. "What do you want to
go and do this for?"
Iba originally defended his appear
ance at the court.
"I just walked in," he said in the
original article. "When they play their
games and things, I'm not supposed to
be there."
Daily Nebraskan reporters and pho
tographers tape-recorded sounds of
basketballs bouncing, whistles blow

team.

Cameron, chairman of the Institute
for the Scientific Investigation of Sex

ure because of his views against homo
sexuality. In his speech, Cameron said male
homosexuality threatens the world's
public health.
"The airplane has changed homo
sexuality in a fantastic way, a way that
very few people have considered,"
Cameron said. "Because of the wings of

After hearing about the tape record
ing, Devaney told the Lincoln Star that
he believed the tape was "very in
conclusive." "I'd go kind of slow in accusing him
(Iba) on the basis of the sounds of a
basketball bouncing and some voices,
one of which may or may not have been
his," Devaney said. "You would be
blasting a man's reputation on the
basis of something that may not be
legally admissible. . . Moe says he was
not coaching. That's the only thing I
have to go on at this time."

"And given male homosexuality, and
given the fact that male homosexuals

said.

O "Shirts on the defense. Skins are

O "You're gonna lose the ball. Hold

Friday Devaney ordered Iba to apol
ogize publicly to the university com
munity for violating NCAA rules.
"I made a mistake. It was poor
judgment on my part. I apologize to the
University of Nebraska community and
to our supporters," Iba said in a state

Massengale, Devaney and Iba could
not be reached for comment Sunday.

that casual contact with AIDS patients
does not put others at risk of contract
ing the disease. There is too much
unknown about AIDS to make such a
statement, he said.
Cameron said the CDC policy that
recommends that children with AIDS
be allowed to go to school is an
"incredibly stupid stance." The policy
opposes what the CDC recommends for
children without DPT shots, he said.
