Wisconsin U. Calls Off Ban on Lerner;
Oust Instigator from Committee

MADISON, Wis., (AJP)—Crit-

Jewish columnist Max Lerner at
a University of Wisconsin stu-

grounds of unproven pro-Com-
munist leanings were severely

sponsor Lerner's appearance on
their own.

dent body and the public that it
is concerned today no less than
in the past in upholding freedom
of discussion as the mark of a
true university and the tradi-
tional pride of the University of
Wisconsin."
