Bailey /pProsecutes U.S. Jury System HRC Posts Hulcher Recominends Community Leaders For Council Approval By JILL CRABTREE Ann Arbor Mayor Wendell E. Hulcher yesterday recommended to the City Council the names of three citizens to fill recently vac- ated positions on the city's Human Relations Commission (HRC). Those named by Hulcher are Harold W. Katz, Mrs. Stanley Thayer and Mrs. Wallace Officer. Katz is a program director for KMS Industries and a member of the Ann Arbor Chamber of Com- merce. Mrs. Thayer is a member of the League of Women Voters, the local NAACP and the Civil Rights Coordinating Council. Mrs., Officer is treasurer of the Ann Ar- bor Women's Federation and a member of the Citizens for Better School Organization. Hulcher said tihat in making his recommendations he took special Uonsiderations of the need for "broad representation of various segments of our community" on the HRC, and said he sought a "balance in terms of such factors as socio-economic conditions, race, sex, religion, age and way of life." He added that he sought "maxi- mum possible community confi- dence by all of our citizens to en-, sure maximum effectiveness." Hulcher said that "an effective commission that represents the many, varied viewpoints is of ut- most importance. Maintenance of aggressive programs for equal op- portunity for all citizens in all areas of life is mandatory." Mrs. Thayer replaces Mrs. Nor- ma Kraker, University Supervisor of Off Campus Housing and Stu- dent-Community Relations, who submitted her resignation from the' HRC two weeks ago in a memo to Council expressing her dissatisfac- tion with HRC make-up and prac- tices. Mrs. Officer replaces Mrs. Dor- win Cartwright, who resigned last week because she is moving out of To At Research By HENRY GRIX F. Lee Bailey, the slick, cele- brated defense attorney, prose- cuted the jury system and de- fended the Supreme Court and human rights in Hill Auditorium Sunday. "The jury system is not that accurate," Bailey charged, be- cause there is "no means in the world to correct an error by a jury." While an executive decision can rescind a jury decision, it seldom does because the public frowns on the reversal of con- victions. Bailey would like to have a "guarantee of acquittal" for an innocent person. But the jury usually infers t h a t a man "wouldn't be here if he hadn't done something," Bailey feels. "It would be a good system if its theorectical principles were Join followed, but they are not," the lawyer continued. The result is an "even-steven" justice: one in- nocent man is convicted for every guilty man. Bailey, who gained fame de- fending Drs. Carl Coppolino and Sam Sheppard, proposed "a re- view board with the power to re-j view facts" and acquit individ- uals. The attorney lauded recent Supreme Court decisions which were designed to inform ordinary citizens of their rights, rather{ than to handicap police and abet criminals. High Costs While the criminal often knows his rights, the innocent, accused individual is usually unaware of them and is staggered by legal costs. Furthermore, insufficiently Sit- I SACUA Ht Tomorrow's 'Disruption' By KEN KELLEY A group of twenty-six faculty members will join the sit-in at the administration building tomorrow to protest the University's par- ticipation in classified war re- search. Twenty-three literary school and three engineering school faculty declared jointly in a one sentence statement that "the University should not conduct classified war research" and will "therefore par- ticipate in the sit-in at the ad- ministration building tomorrow. Although individual f a c u 1 t y members have joined past sit-ins this marks the firsttime that an organized group has ever joined a sit-in. Twenty-three members of the group have professorial rank, the other three hold academic ap- pointments as an instructor, lec- turer, and research "study direc- tor" respectively. Liberals Several are prominent liberals, including Frithjof Bergmann of the philosophy deparement, Nich- olas Kazarinoff of the mathema- tics department and Anatol Rapo- port of the Mental Health Re- search Institute. Meanwhile the Faculty Senate Advisory Committee on University Ofairs issued a statement follow- ing its meeting yesterday opposing the sit-iii planned for 1 p.m. to- morrow. "Demonstrations are not the way in which an academic com- munity can most effectively reach a sound judgment" stated SACUA. "Continuing discussion of this is- sue, participated in by all members of the community, can lead us to a correct position on what is to be done, which will then be imple- mented as official University pol- icy."

Evaldson about the sit-in planned to pro- test Univesrity involvement in a $1 million counterinsurgency pro- ject in Thailand. Other University administrators were equally reticent about to- morrow's scheduled demonstra- tion. Vice President for University Relations Michael Radock said he did not expect any comment would be forthcoming from Pres- ident Harlan Hatcher. "Why should be make any com- ment," Radock said. "I don't think he'll want to make one." No Comment Asked directly, Hatcher replied: "I have no comment at all to! make." President-designate Robben W. Fleming, who will succeed Hat- cher Jan. 1, also declined com- ment on the sit-in. "I don't want to take a public position," he said. The sit-in is planned for 1 p.m. in the Administration Bldg. of- fice of Vice President for Re- search A. Geoffrey Norman fol- lowing a noon rally on the Diag.

General; Prof. Yale Kamisar of the law school; and Otis Smith, University regent and former State Supreme Court Justice, es- sentially agreed with Bailey. Kelley noted that in the ma- jority of Michigan's 83 counties, state trial lawyers earn "less than the janitor in the building and must spend a disproportionate amount of time in private prac- tice." Kamisar attacked the hand- ling of organized crime by the state and by the taxpayers. He charged that "while everyone is calling bloody murder, we have two of the softest guys to comej down the pike." He slammed the! American public for being willing to do "anything to combat crime, except pay for it."

Anyone has a right to voice his opinion and even demonstrate on its behalf so long as his'actions do not infringe in the rights of others." Opposition Explained Faculty members participating in the sit-in are opposed to classi- field war research primarily be- cause of its contribution to defense effort and because of the lack of dissemination of findings, which some felt was not in keeping with a University's function. Bergmann said he plans to sit-in "because the classified research is being used for such things as counter-insurgency, where the University has no place." "People very close to me," he continued, "are doing something to which I'm opposed, and I want' them to be more responsible." "I am not opposed to all clas- sified research, but the research being done is unconscionable be- cause of the warfare resulting from it," added Bergmann. Another sit-in opponent, Profes- sor Robert Sklar of the history de- partment said, "the Thailand pro- ject is contemptible and indefensi- ble."
