MSA Cut-up Humor runs rampant in the Michigan Student Assembly (MSA) chambers during the weekly Tuesday night meetings. Lately though, treasurer Brad' Canale has been stealing ther show from other Assembly mem- bers. President Eric Arnson has recently introduced Canale's of- ficer report as a "monologue" and the "entertainment" portion of the meeting. Tuesday night,, although Canale promised his report would be "serious", nevertheless managed to main-3 tain his reputation as residentf comedian. In his report, Canale used the word "truncated," and after noticing Assembly mem-" bers snickering at his use of the word joked, "I just learned that word today." uess there has to be one in every crowd. Take ten - Janis Joplin and James Cotten sang on campus on the evening of March 15, 1969 to huge crowds at Crisler Arena. Joplin and her 26-piece orchestra, the San Francisco Pops, were in town the evening before they were to appear on the Ed Sullivan show. Also on that day, Soviet and Communist Chinese troops clashed for the second time in two weeks. Each side charged the other with starting the "armed provocation".

Truman on trial Two juries in Independence, Missouri are currently deliberating the guilt or innocence of President Harry Truman on charges of "war crimes" in connection with his 1945 decision to drop the atomic bomb on Japan. The juries, all ninth graders in Janet Fielder's social studies class at Bridger Junior High, are also learning an invaluable lesson in political pressure. It seems that the director of the Truman library in Independence is upset by what he calls a "screwball idea'k putting - The Michigan Daily-Thursday, March 15, 1979-Page:3 COLLEGE HAD BLOCKED UNFAVORABLE EDITORIAL: Fired student editor wins suit BY ELEONORA DI LISCIA A legal precedent on the rights of the student free press have been established by a case involving a student editor, Samuel Kemp, from Wayne County Community College (WCCC), and the administration's at- tempt to stop him from printing an un- favorable story. The case was settled out of court in the student's favor. U.S. District Judge Ralph Guy ordered the administration of WCCC never to exercise prior restraint of the press in any way, shape or form again,. He also awarded Kemp $6 as an honorary award and free tuition at the college through 1981. Kemp is not making use of the free tuition since he completed coursework at WCCC and has transferred to Wayne State University. THEDEFENDANTS named in the suit were WCCC, President Reginald Wilson; Dean of Student Services Ar- thur Carter; director of student ser- vices Mark McPherson and coordinator of student activities Elizabeth Burris. Kemp initially filed suit when he was fired as editor in chief of the student newspaper, the Open Door, for trying to publish an editorial unfavorable to the administration.

According to the verified amended complaint, the defendants demanded that Kemp change the article, ordered the printer not to publish it, changed the locks on the newspaper office's door, and fired Kemp without giving him a hearing. When Kemp publicly protested his firing, the administration claimed that his grades were below passing and that a student had to have a 2.5 average to hold a post at the paper. Kemp main- tained that his grade point was above 2.5. BY FIRING KEMP, the ad- ministration violated his first and four- teenth amendment rights, the court found. According to Kemp.'s attorney Herschel Fink of the American Civil Liberties Union, "Our intention was to vindicate his rights as student editor and we feel we were successful at that." According to the Open Door's policy manual,, the paper is not to yield "to pressures from individuals or groups among administrators, faculty, staff and students, but will strive to report news truthfully, objectively, and im- partially by presenting both sides of an issue." Furthermore, it is the responsibility of the paper to oppose administration THE MICHIGAN DAILY (USPS 344-900) Volume LXXXIX, No. 130 Thursday, March 15, 1979 is edited and managed by, students at the University of Michigan.

BESIDES THE prior restraint question, the actions of the college ad- ministration caused a breach of con- tract of these written rules, Kemp's at- torney charged. The officials were also charged with invasion of privacy for saying that Kemp's grades were below a 2.5 average. Although the award seems small, Fink pointed out that "We were not out for money. We were out to establish a principle." The defendant's lawyer, George I Bushnell, said that they denied all the charges and that he did not believe the college had exercised prior restraint. Instead, he said Kemp's firing was part of a "difficult sequence of events." : Bushnell said Kemp had been fired due to his grade point average and not because of the article. He said, the resolution of the case "by way of, set- tlement out of court "gives some sub- stance to the college position." BUSHNELL explained that Ker~p may not have been aware he had below a 2.5 averageebecause of a unique policy of the college of keeping two different transcripts.
