Agreeing with Cudlip, Smith
said that the Daily "weaves fact
and opinion in and out of their
stories."
Hirschman, in response to the
charges of news bias and inaccur-
acy said that The Daily is staffed
"primarily by people with little
experience in journalism."
"Although editors have always
stressed very high standards of
accuracy and fairness, I would
be the first to admit that we have
the publication of incorrect facts
frequently failed, resulting in thei
publication of incorrect facts and
distortions of the positions of peo-
ple in the stories," Hirschman
continiued. "We are anxious to cor-
rect such errors when they are
brought to our attention, 'and we
have done so with almost embar-
rassing frequency."
Hirschman agreed that the
structure of The Daily could tend,
in the short run, to perpetuate a
certain political philosophy on the
part of the paper.
But he added that "structually,
at least, the staff of the paper
continues to remain open to all
Universitysstudents." He also said
the editors had "recently taken
steps to encourage staff discussion
of and participation in the broad
policy question facing The Daily
as an institution."
"It's my hope that this activity
will lead to some kind of demo-
craticization of the internal work-
ings of The Daily," he said.
Throughout all discussions about
the Daily, those Regents inter-
viewed emphasized they were "not
trying to threaten The Daily."'
Regent Paul Goebel (R-Grand
Rapids), perhaps the stauchest.
critc of The Daily, declined to
comment in a telephone interview.
President Robben Fleming also
declined to comment.

versity is too dependent on exter-
or sources of funds, and there-
fore its policy becomes represent-
ative of the main sources of re-
venue and not, the University
community, Ross added.
"It was a bit too heavy to get
rid of ROTC. That is the name
of the game - there is no neutral-
ity - it gives in to the highest
bidder," he said. Militarists and
capitalists should not dictate Uni-
versity spending and allocation of
resources, Ross continued. Instead,
"people in the University and
community should have a say in
what the first priorities are and
where the money goes."
Opposing Mendel, Ross sighted
the need for radical social change
within the University itself. "The
University has become a shell with
a :chick inside pushing out at the
thin walls because it has become
obsolete," he charged.
Ross also differed with Knauss
on the subject of the University's
neutrality. By remaining neutral,
Ross asserted, the University is
partial to the elite groups within
! society: "The minimum we can
ask of them is to at least get off
the wrong side."

The attorney -representing SDS
countered this saying the act of
organizing the demonstrating does
not imply responsibility for the'
disruption that ensued.
The January lock-in was one of
several political actions taken by
SDS last winter. SDS justified its
actions 'by questioning the legal
right of various corporations to
recruit saying "the basic function
'of these corporations is disrup-
tive.",
CSJ chairmen predicted the
trial "would take about a month,"
with at least four sessions spread
over a four week period.,

Police scrambled behind tele-
phone poles and buildings for
protection while dodging fire from
the house.
The Desire Housing project,
where more than 10,000 blacks
live, is directly across the street
from the-house.
"Get your head back from that
window," a policeman yelled at
one man in the project. The po-
liceman took aim with his sub-
machine gun to back up his order.
Several hundred blacks flooded
from the project after the arrest
of the 14. A long line of blue-
shirted policemen and Louisiana
state troopers stood in the middleI
of the street facing the crowd with!
rifles and shotguns ready.
There were a few brief skirm-
ishes in the quadrangel when some
of the younger blacks jostled po-
lice. Officers used the butts of
their rifles to disband the clusters
and arrested -'foul' others. Hun-
dreds came back to the sidewalks
as police maintained their vigil.
In Birmingham yesterday, three
blacks were wounded as sheriff's
deputies and members of the mili-
tant Alabama Black Liberation
Front traded gunfire yesterday,
Sheriff Mel Bailey said.
The Jefferson County sheriff
said the shooting occurred when
his deputies tried to serve an evic-
tion notice in a predominantly
black section of Birmingham.
He said none of his men was
hurt and five persons were arrest-
