Page Eight THE MICHIGAN DAILY Wednesday, October 6, 1971 Page Eight THE MICHIGAN DAILY Wednesday, October 6, 197 Film (Continued from Page 1) tisements in West Quad, South Quad and the Michigan Union were marked "cancelled". In April, a second member of the Orson Welles Film Society- Ed Crossmore, a law student - became involved in an entangle- ment with organizers of the Peo- ple's Peace Treaty conference in February. The Peace Treaty group had scheduled a benefit showing of "They Shoot Horses, Don't They?" Crossmore told The Daily that he called the only non-theatrical distributor of the film, Films Inc., to protest the peace confer- ence showing. Orson Welles had booked the film for August and Crossmore objected to the con- flicting presentations. The night before thescheduled showing, a group active in the Peace Treaty promotion received an anonymous warning by phone that "Horses" would not be allow- ed to be shown. The afternoon of the showing bore out the caller's threat as all groups four doors leading into Natural Science Aud. were found bolted and chained from the inside. Peace Treaty representatives managed to open the doors short- ly before showtime. Ironically, the film had been sent to Philadel- phia by mistake and was never shown. It remains unclear whether there is any connection between the phone calls asking distribu- tors to cancel the films and the strange physical acts that hin- dered the showings. But because of Orson Welles' opposition to the film showings, members of ARM and Student Government Council investigators have naturally speculated on whe- ther Orson Welles, Maurello and Crossmore might have had any- thing to do with the incidents. Both Maurello and Crossmore, however, have refused repeatedly to comment on any of the allega- tions brought against them. Although Maurello resigned the presidency of Orson Welles im- mediately following the "Horses" relations marked by controversy incident, a number of incidents in his past, including two arrests for illegal activity involving films, have made him a focus of atten- tion. While an undergraduate at Cor- nell University, Maurello was charged with grand larceny on two occasions and acquitted. In the first trial, Maurello was alleged to have picked up a film intended for someone else at a local post office. The trial records shows that a Post Office official made posi- tive identification of Maurello. He was acquitted, however, when he provided an uncorroborated alibi and character witnesses. In the second trial, Maurello was indicted on four counts of grand larceny. Three of the counts charged him with order- ing films from three distributors under false names. The case differed from the first - film distributors knew that films were being ordered un- der false names. In fact, they called the alleged recipients and Research plan faces obstacles received confirmation that none had been ordered. In order to discover who had falsely identified himself, the dis- tributors sent the films ahead. Since the distributors had prior knowledge that the people under whose names the films had been ordered did not actually want them, the judge ruled Maurello could not be charged with a crime for picking them up. The fourth charge was dropped by agreement of the prosecuting attorney. Citing this history of Maurel- o's, Frank Pedi of Films Inc. has said that Films Inc. would not have done business with Orson Welles if it had been aware of Maurello's connection with the organization. In August, the controversy be- tween Orson Welles and ARM came to a head when both groups scheduled overlapping showings of "They Shoot Horses, Don't They?" ARM scheduled their showing when they discovered Films Inc., the non-theatrical distributor for the film, had cancelled operations with Orson Welles at some point earlier in the summer. Orson Welles, however, had booked a theatrical print from the film's producer and thusavoided losing the right to show the film. The misunderstanding led to an is petitioning new mem- bers. Those who have ex- perience in advertising or business managing should be sure to sign at the Cinema Guild ticket desk this week. angry one-week advertising war in The Daily. ARM placed an adver- tisement for their own showing which claimed that Orson Welles had cancelled. The next day Orson Welles re- torted with an angry accusation of "blatant competition" and as- serted that plans to show the film were still on. The rest of the week featured advertisements for the two show- ings in each morning's paper. In addition, ARM leafletted the Orson Welles showings, charging them with harassment and with being the force behind DIS- ARM. Both groups ended by showing the film. At this time, George de Pugh, a spokesman for ARM, alleges that he was confronted by retired president Maurello on central campus. DePugh says that Maurello threatened to get rid of ARM if the Orson Welles Film Society was damaged by SGC or CSJ in- vestigations. Regardless of this and other charges, Maurello and Crossmore have continually declined to con- firm or deny any of the incidents alleged to have occurred through- out the controversy. Crossmore resigned suddenly last week from Orson Welles and the new president denies know- ledge of the past activities of ei- ther Maurello or Crossmore. Maurello, meanwhile, says he has been advised by his lawyer to remain silent, in the light of a re- cent arrest on charge of possess- ing some $2,000 of stolen Uni- versity f i 1i m equipment. He faces a preliminary hearing on those charges this afternoon in civil court. Charges and denials, argu- ments over scheduling, advertis- ing battles, continued harassment -all of these have cropped up during the last nine months of film-showing on campus. DIAL 5-6290 ENDING WEDNESDAY The story of a married man..with a hobby. Tomorrow night's hearing be- fore CSJ, to which both Maurello and Crossmore have been called to testify, should shed light on some of the controversy's mud- dled events. In fact, Director of Student Organizations Gutman, as he brings the charges before CSJ, says he is convinced that campus film societies have been involved in "undesirable" activities more serious than the ones listed in his complaint. If he proves correct, perhops the present charges represent merely the tip of an iceberg, the entire body of which could soon float imposingly to the surface.

According to Prof. Warren Nor- man, SACUA chairman, SACUA members explained to Fleming the thrust of the faculty proposal and Fleming "expressed a deep con- cern" for the employes of the Uni- versity's Willow Run Laboratories -where the vast majority of the campus' classified projects are performed. Fleming said last night that his decision on the matter would not be made for at least 2-3 weeks, adding that he wants to see the final draft of Assembly's proposal before he makes a committment. That final draft is scheduled to be approved by Assembly Oct. 18. Other top administrators also declined comment on the contro- versial proposal, but apparently budgetary concerns-perhaps the greatest problem facing the Uni- versity this year-will not be a consideration in their decision. Wilbur Pierpont, vice president and chief financial officer, said last night that the University's research labs are essentially self supporting and do not have an effect on the University's overall financial position. "Their research is financed by gifts and grants," he said. "This is certainly not a question of fi- nancial impact." -The Willow Run facilities do receive some funds from the Uni- versity, Pierpont added. Last year the laboratories received $352,800, a figure that will not increase this year. In recent years, the Regents, while often ignoring student de- mands, have been at times very receptive to suggestions of As- sembly. Examples of this attitude in- clude proposals for establishing a student controlled bookstore (Oct. 1969) ; altering the status of the University's Reserve Officer Train- ing Corps (ROTC) program (Dec. 1969); and seeking increased mi- nority student enrollment (April 1970)-all of which were approved by the Regents only after Assem- bly added its weight behind stu- dent forces. The Regents, meanwhile, say they are largely uninformed on the extent of Assembly's proposal and hope to increase their infor- mation. Regent Robert Nederlander (D- Birmingham) said he feels "the University shouldn't be in the warmaker's business," b u t ex- pressed fears that projects with peacetime uses might be excluded under the new policy. "iI'd like to get a lot of input from all sections of the University before I make my decision," he added. Regent Gertrude Huebner (D- Bloomfield Hills) asserted that "if abolishing most classified re- search makes no difference finan- cially to the University then I would support the proposal. I cer- tainly approve of it philosophic- ally," she said. H u e b n e r indicated, however. that she has many unanswered questions about the pr o po a, which she hopes to resolve before the November meeting. DIAL 8-6416 MEET GINGER-:: .
