In the continuation of a trial halted on Monday by a de-

John B. Collins, attorney for the defense who walked out
of Municipal Court charging that the trial was."a mockery of
justice," was denied a motion that Municipal Judge Samuel

Collins said after the trial that he "had asked twice for

In the wake of several days of

One night a week, 20 University stu- '
dents and several urban black leaders
have been meeting until well into the
night for an out-spoken, no-nonsense
discussion of the gap between "white
academia" and the urban ghetto.
But this is no extra-curricular gather-
ing. It is 'a meeting of a new architecture
graduate seminar, on 'urban development
and it is only one of the many curriculum
changes that 'department is making td
