W)-A Uni- versity of California faculty group, guaranteeing $85,000, bailed out of jail yesterday all but one of 814 student and non-student dem- onstrators arrested for a campus sit-in over political action rules. The bail holds until 9 a.m. California time Monday when Municipal Judge Ruppert Critten- den plans to convene court for arraignment of all of them in the community theatre at Berke- ley High School.' On the campus more than 27,- 000 student pickets disrupted classes yesterday and forced some to be cancelled. Pressure the 'U' Both the demonstration-brok- en up Thursday by police carry- ing scores out of the administra- tion building-and the picketing aimed to pressure the university into permitting recruiting and fund-raising anywhere on campus for such off-campus political ac- tion. Now political action is al- lowed in only one place on cam- pus and is carefully regulated. Five of the university's 2000 fac- ulty members yesterday asked for the removal of Edward W. Strong, university chancellor. "The administration has com- pletely lost the confidence of the students and the faculty" Prof. Henry F. May, chairman of the history department, said. Urge Removal Thursday the Bergley chapter of the American Association of University Professors executive committee passed a resolution urg- ing Strong's removal. The resolu- tion later drew cheers when read to 1000 faculty members but they took no action. Strong declined comment. Other resolutions passed by the AAUP included recommendations that there be "amnesty for the rest of the semester on disciplin- ary measures." The professors added that they "wanted the Re- gents to reverse their stand on advocacy.., that they allow com- plete freedom of speech . . . and that there be no regulations on the content of speech on the cam- pus." The massive sit-in began Tues-: day, when leaders of the Free* Speech Movement, a loose coali tion of right and left wing stu- dent groups, jammed the adminis- tration building. Political Rights The key FSM demand was that the university drop disciplinary action against four FSM leaders in a campaign for full political rights on campus. The Berkeley Board of Regents Nov. 20 directed that new proceed- ings be instituted immediately against Mario Savio, Arthur Gold- berg and his sister, Jackie, and Brian Turner for their part in sit-in at Sproul Hall, the admin- istration building, Oct. 1-2. The four are to be summoned before the faculty committee on student conduct because of their involvement in the early October demonstration. An all-night vigil prevented a campus police car from taking off to jail a non- "Rightly or wrongly, but I think understandably, the s t u d e n ts thought they had been tricked," May added. Teaching Assistants A campus-wide strike, starting yesterday morning and extending until Tuesday noon, was called by Stephan Weissman, chairman of a committee representing teaching assistants and graduate students. FSM leaders said the strike al- ready closed down mathematics, history and poiltical science de- partments but university officials flatly denied it. A University spokesman pointed out that there normally is less class activity on Friday. In a telephone interview with The Daily, Mark Rossman of the Graduate Student Steering Com- mittee, said that 75 per cent of the teaching assistants on the Berkeley campus are nvolved in the strike.' 85 Per Cent Success Rossman said that the univer- sity's information service report- ed that the strike was 85 per cent successful.. The strike also has the support of a broad range of the faculty, Rossman said. The strike is a joint teaching assistant-student strike. It will last until at least next Tuesday, and possibly longer, depending on the results of an Academic Sen- ate meeting, Rossman said., The mass arrest of the sit-in demonstrators at Sproul Hall was ordered by California Gov. Ed- mund G. Brown who said later "we're not going to have anarchy in the state of California while I'm governor." Break-Down Last night the university an- nounced that a check of arrest! cards against university records showed 814 arrests made with this breakdown: students, 590 or 72.5 per cent; non-students, 135 or 16.6 per cent; teaching and research aides, university employes and un- identified persons, 89 or 10.9 per cent. One released demonstrator had stitches under his chin. Another displayed bruised fingers. Dem- onstration leaders charged that when they went limp at the cam-. pus sit-in, arresting officers drag- ged them down stairs and roughed them up. The charge was denied by police and sheriff captains. His Experience. Michael Smith, a law student at Berkeley, was arrested in massive police action Thursday. He gave the following account of his ex- perience to The Daily by telephone last night. "I was carried into an elevator, I saw a cop kicking a student who was limp on the floor. I stood up and didn't attempt to go limp. "The police grabbed my hair and bent my head. Then they bent my arms behind my back and one started working on my knuckles. I was not resisting. One grabbed mythroat, not so as to choke me, but to cause further pain. Dragged Them "I later saw several girls hit and slugged. Some students were kicked as the police dragged them along. Some others, including one girl, were thrown down a flight of stairs. "One policeman said to me, 'You came to the university to learn, and I'll teach you something you'll never forget.' I was carried out to the bus, where I got on myself. "There was a cop there, who pidked some limp students up and threw them into the bus. Several students hit poles in the bus. At the prison farm, we were given a sandwich, but that night were were told that it was too bad, but we overtaxed the facili- ties and wouldn't get anything tol eat. No Badges "During the demonstration we were told to look for the police badges. Three of the men in the elevator had no badges or other identification." The Board of Regents last Nov. 20 fully backed new regulations drafted by Strong and Dr. Clark Kerr, university system president. Named as Speaker LANSING ()-Rep. Joseph Ko- walski (D-Detroit) has been nam- ed speaker of the state House of Representatives-the first Demo- crat to hold the post in 25 years. Kowalski, an attorney and in- ternational representative for the United Auto Workers, was elect- ed in a four-hour closed-door cau- cus of 71 of the 72 Democratic representatives to be seated Jan 13. Walter Hyso of Hamtramck was ill. Seven others were elected to leadership posts in balloting that apparently went smoothly despite overtones of friction before the caucus convened. Speaker Pro-Tem Albert Horrigan of Flint, assist-' ant to Kowalski in his present position of minority floor leader, was named speaker pro-tem. Dom- inic Jacobetti of Negaunee was named associate speaker pro-tem, a new post. Robert Traxler of Bay City, a sophomore in the House, was elect- ed majority floor leader. Associ- ate and assistant floor leaders named were Harry Thorne of Dearborn Heights and F. Charles Raap of Muskegon. Raap returns to the Legislature after a four- year absence. William Ryan of Detroit was named caucus chairman and Ar- thur Law of Pontiac was named as his associate. Beats Three Kowalski beat out three other candidates for the speakership. They were Jacobetti, George Montgomery of Detroit and Law. The only note of dissension was from E. D. O'Brien of Detroit, candidate for the floor leader's post. Although he said he was "not disturbed at losing," he add- ed, "it was obvious some pre- planning was done for team lead- ership; I've never been part of the team." Kowalski denied there was a 'Dirty Shirt' Gets Fired The infamous Gomberg Dirty Shirt was apparently incinerat- ed yesterday by one of South Quadrangle's janitors. Students reported that the shirt which the night before was "baked" in an oven with Limburger cheese and a number of strong steak sauces, was traced to the incinerator by its smell. Steven Zdon, '68E, the last one to wear the shirt and the one who baked it, reportedly said that he would wear it if everyone else dropped out. The rules of the contest require that the last person in the contest wear the shirt twice to prevent such self-contamination. Says Michael Smith, '66, the originator of the contest, and the first to drop out, "With 40 students left, we'll buy another shirt and continue." pre-planned slate. "This was as free an election as I've seen in a caucus," he said. Every office was contested. It was a good caucus, with no animosity, Kowalski added. The group is getting ready to work for two years and is "in for a fight." Asked with whom, he an- swered: "Nobody."

The Rev. Martin Luther King, whom FBI Director J. Edgar Hoo- ver recently called a "notorious liar," said: "I must commend the Federal Bureau of Investigation for the work they have done in uncov- ering the perpetrators of this das- tardly deed." Whitney M. Young Jr., execu- tive director of the National Ur- bar. League, commented: "The agency and all of its officials who worked to bring the accused to the bar of justice deserve the con- gratulations of the entire nation." Dr. King said, however, that "honesty and realism compel me to admit that it will be very dif- ficult to get a conviction." Long, Painstaking James Farmer, national director of the Congress of Racial Equal- ity, said the long and "painstak- ing" investigation has at last pro- duced results. "I will not prejudge the case," Farmer declared, "but I under- stand the evidence against the accused is very substantial."

U.S. Teachers- Overseas Told, Not To Strike The Defense Department has warned that it would dismiss any strikers among the teachers in overseas schools for dependents of United States employes. The warning came after some overseas teachers seeking pay in- creases scheduled a one day stop- page next Wednesday. Norman S. Paul, assistant sec- retary of defense for manpower, outlined the Pentagon's views in a memorandum. The Pentagon told military com- manders and other officials that such teachers would also be sub- ject to prosecution by the Justice Department. A Big Fine; It noted that striking or fo- menting strikes against the gov- ernment is punishable by a fine np to $1000 and imprisonment up to a year and a day. Teachers in the overseas schools, like all federal employes, sign affidavits' that they do not in- tend to strike or claim the right to strike against the federal gov- ernment, Paul pointed out. He ,insisted that the threatened stop- page constituted a strike under federal law. No Details A Pentagon spokesman said negotiations had been undertaken to avoid a stoppage, but he gave no details. The Defense Department main- tains 291 schools in 28 countries abroad for about 150,000 children of military personnel and other government employes. Most of the schools are in Europe. Many of the 5800 overseas teachers, organized under the Overseas Education Association, have been campaigning for high- er salaries and recently appealed to President Lyndon B. Johnson for support. Lost Lawsuit Last month the association lost a lawsuit for higher salaries in Federal District Court in Wash- ington. The suit had maintained that Secretary of Defense Robert S. McNamara was obligated by law to raise their salaries. First-year teachers abroad with BA degrees and two years' exper- ience earn $4,535 a year, about Hold County Officials for Conspiracy Report All Had Some Connection with Local Ku Klux Klan Group MERIDIAN, Miss. (I)-The two top law officers of Neshoba County and a preacher ,were among 20 men swept up yesterday in mass Federal Bureau of Investigation arrests in three civil rights mur- ders. The FBI said most of the 20 men belong to or sympathize with the Ku Klux Klan. A 21St man was sought. The arrests, most of them on federal conspiracy charges, were in connection with the killing of three civil rights workers, two of them white New Yorkers, at Phila- delphia, Miss., last June. The Preacher Those arrested included Sheriff Lawrence Rainey, Chief Deputy Cecil Price, or adjoining rural Neshoba County, and Edgar (Preacher) Killen, a Fundamen- talist minister. The FBI struck swiftly, arrest- ing 18 men in this east-central Mississippi area, another in Gulf- port on the Mississippi coast and another at Shreveport, La. Hearing Set Bonds were set at $5,000 each and a preliminary hearing was tentatively set for next Thursday. The arrests came swiftly and almost silently. FBI agents waited for Rainey and Price to reach the county courthouse from an out- of-town call. A quiet but tense crowd of some 100 persons formed outside the courthouse. They watched as four FBI agents drove off with Price and Rainey. Got Angry After the FBI agents departed with the sheriff and his deputy, the crowd got angry with newsmen and photographers. One bystander pulled a knife and threatened a photographer. The arrested men were rushed to the naval air station north of here for intensive questioning, fingerprinting and photographing. All 21 men were accused in the slaying of Michael Schwerner, and Andrew Goodman and James Chaney, a Meridan Negro. Find Bodies The three youths disappeared June 21 after driving from Meri- dan to Philadelphia to investigate the burning of a rural Negro church. Their bodies were found Aug. 4 buried beneath a new earthen dam near Philadelphia. All three had been shot and Chaney had been beaten viciously. Nineteen of those arrested, in- cluding both Rainey and Price were charged with conspiring to injure, threaten and intimidate the three youths in violation of their rights guaranteed by the federal constitution. 'Judge To Talk At Graduation Counseling Offers Seminars By BRUCE BIGELOW "Our real purpose in counseling," Administrative Assistant John J. Manning Jr. of the Junior-Senior Counseling Office explains, "is to offer the student an opportunity for an educa- tional experience." Manning emphasizes that each time a student enters a counseling office, he faces a specialized classroom situation, in which only a teacher and he are involved. "The situation is analogous to the ideal seminar," Manning says. "It offers the lowest possible counselor-student ratio, and an opportunity for the student to discourse on a direct one-to- one basis with a representative of the literary college." 'Seminars in You' Counseling sessions, then, according to Manning, become "seminars in you," opportunities for both intimacy and "dis- cussion of the relevance of educational values to the particular problems of the student." Within this framework of specialization, Manning stresses the importance of preparation and initiative in developing a successful exchange. Student responsibility, Mann portant.
