Revenge! University of Nebraska Senior Bill Martin has found a way to strike back-at least a little-at tutition-gouging from his school. He paid his bill this term with 4,145 dimes. "I thought I'd pay in dimes because it hurts so much," Martin said. "Maybe this will make it hurt a little less." Mar- tin, however, added a note of contrition: "I was sorry to do it to:these guys because they're not the ones that are really responsible, but it was my only outlet." With a little imagination, paying tui- tion could become downright fun someday. Spare change methodology Panhandlers, take note: the most successful at- titude for begging is a submissive, stoop-shoulder- ed approach, according to a University of Wash- ington project. The investigation also showed pan- handling is most effective when beggars avoid families and male-female pairs, when males ap- proach a woman or a pair of women, or when women use a submissive pose on men who are eating. Seasonal influences may also determine begging success, the report notes, since male pan- handlers did better in the springtime than in the autumn. The price of julstice of taped con fessions Hearst trial 0 in Patti By AP and Reuter SAN FRANCISCO - A fed- eral judge ruled yesterday that damaging testimony against Patricia Hearst could be admitted into her armed bank robbery trial, including evidence of her later participa- tion in a sporting goods store shootout in Los Angeles. Evidence the defense sought to suppress were statements Hearst made on tape and to people she met during her time as "Tania," the underground convert of the Symbionese Lib-" eration Army (SLA). U. S. DISTRICT Court Judge Oliver Carter ruled that Hearst's admission of thebank robbery were freely made, al- though she had testified that she spoke under threat of death after brutal torment by her SLA kidnapers. The judge's decision allows the prosecution to admit as evi- dence its chief weapons againstt the young heiress - her own words. Hearst's parents, Randolph Patterson urges life in kidnapping trial, and Catherine Hearst, appeared stunned as thejudge announced his ruling to a packed court- room. Hearst looked question- ingly at her attorney, F. Lee Bailey, then popped a mint into her mouth and sat back to watch her jury return. Judge Carter in his ruling said: "By the preponderance of the evidence the government has established that the state- ments made by the defendant after the happening of the bank robbery, whether by tape re- cording or oral communication or in writing, were made volun- tarily." CARTER GAVE the brief an- nouncement of his decision af- ter hearing two days of testi- mony with the jury absent and arguments by Bailey and prose- cutor James Browning. His decision appeared to in- sure that the 21-year-old de- fendant eventually will return to the witnessrstand and tell her story of horror and degra- dation at the hands of the ter- rorist SLA.

Williams and Wil- son pleaded guilty Tuesday morning to the abduction of the 13-year-old son of a General Motors executive. Oakland County Prosecutor Brooks Patterson has declared his intention to press life sen- tences for the pair. BUT RUNDELL, who repre- sents the 19-year-old Wilson, says that life sentences would be both cruel and useless. "Punishment is supposed to be based on three things," Run- dell said. "It's supposed 'to pro- tect society from the criminal, it's supposed to rehabilitate the offender, and it's supposed to act as a deterrent to others who might be tempted to follow in his footsteps." But as far as Rundell is con- cerned, a life sentence would be excessive on all three counts. "THESE WERE a pair of basically good kids who did a very bad thing," he claimed. "If sending them to prison is g o i n g to rehabilitate them, there's something wrong." The attorney said, that his client had been out of work for 14 months and was "on the edge of desperation" at the time of the kidnaping. "Society doesn't need to be protected from him. He did a stupid thing, and he's sorry for it; I don't think there's any chance at all of his doing it again." Wilson had told the judge at his trial, "I am indeed sorry for what I have done. I'm not asking for sympathy, but I am sorry." He had earlier asked a detective to apologize for him to the Stempel family. "AND AS far as deterrence goes," Rundell continued, "you don't deter someone from com- mitting a crime by showing them that he's going to get a life sentence. What you're actu- ally telling him is, 'You might as well kill your victim or cut See CLEMENCY, Page 9 Angry crowd calls for murder trial By RICK SOBLE Chanting "We want the mayor now!" a throng of over 200 angry people gathered at city hall last night demanding that the two officers involved in Sunday's fatal shooting of a black youth allegedly robbing a party store be suspended and tried for murder. The crowd voiced its objections to "differential law enforcement" at a special session of city council called to consider what appears to be a racially-oriented issue. "FEELINGS ARE boiling like volcanoes ready to erupt," declared one speaker.. The controversial incident occurred Sunday night when a white officer and his black partner shot two black youths in the back as they were fleeing from a party store. One man, 18- year-old Larry Edwards, was killed, while his companion,w19- year-old Richard Bullock, was injured in the buttocks. According to Councilwoman Carol Jones (D-Second Ward), Edwatds was shot in the head by the black officer, Tom Jf yPressley, who was wielding a .357 magnum service revolver. Forty-four federal judges, including Patty Hearst's Judge Oliver Carter, are suing the United States for more pay. Basing their legal position on a constitutional requirement that salaries for lifetime-appointed judges "shall not be diminish- ed," the jurists say inflation has taken its toll on their pay's purchasing power. The judges earn around $40,000 per year, but say that hard eco- nomic times have reduced their real salary by about 34 per cent since 1969. In fact, one plaintiff from Cleveland claims "judges could be out work- ing as lawyers making two or three times their judicial salaries." The suit, incidentally, was filed with the U. S. Court of Claims-whose judges would, of course, benefit from a favorable de- cision. No golden anniversary The townsfolk of Coloma, Calif. have cancelled next year's annual celebration of the discovery of gold in their state because the event has been get- ting too darn rowdy. "It's gotten out of hand in so many ways," laments Gus Till, superintendent of the Marshall Gold. Discovery State Historical Park in the Sierra foothills. Last month's celebration brought over 40,000 persons and, according to Till, "we had nothing but problems-drinking, dope and rowdyism. It was not a place you could bring your kids and feel safe." Some people knocked down fence rails and used them for bonfires, he said, and women took over all the restrooms, kicking out the men.

The Village Voice yesterday published what it said was the entire report of the House of . Representatives Intelligence Committee investigating the CIA. The report is still secret, although parts of it have been leaked to the press. ACCORDING to the text pub- lished in The Voice, the CIA told the committee that since January, 1975, it had spent more than $31 million on military hardware, transportation costs and cash payments to the two pro-Western factions in Angola. But the report said the Com- mittee had reason 'to believe that the actual U.S.. investment was much higher. "Information supplied to the Committee also suggests that military intervention of the So- viet Union and Cuba is in large part a reaction to U.S. efforts to break a political stalemate in See CIA, Page 2 Wheeler ki Housing loery: Tension-filled dorm drawing yields ecstasy and despair An air of tension hung over the Markley dining hall. Knots of people played cards, trying to hide their apprehension in eager conversa- tions as numbers and names rolled off the lips of a bearded staff member-the second annual dorm "drawing" was underway. "TERRY- I can't read the last name," the announcer called out, and spelled it. Frantic cheers broke out from a group of women surrounding the fortunate winner. "Yeah, Terry!" From the other side of the room, where contestants for the male spaces in the dorm were congregated, loud roars of approval and frequent cries of "Oh, shit" from rivals erupted as a second announcer call- ed out their numbers. TOWARD THE middle of the drawing an ecstatic woman rushed across the floor, screaming incoherently and clenching her fist high in the air. "This is boring," fretted a so-far unsuc- nn c ). . l .n - n onrin m- "A h ,_ yelled the delighted young man who had pulled through with 297. "I feel relieved," said freshwoman Jody Greenstone, adding that if she had not been accepted she would have "cried, I guess." OTHER RESIDENTS of Markley were not so happy. "My biggest concern is what I'm going to do," said freshman Doug Goldstein, who got number 304. He added that although he had a good chance of getting in if winners dropped out of the race; he had not yet decided whether or not to stay after all. As people above the cut-off point drop out, losers will be accepted according to ascending lottery numbers. "I THINK you should be allowed to stay two years in the dorm," winner Mary Doyle commented. Meanwhile, a block away in Mosher-Jor- dan, Vince Bryson was drawing women's names. Freshwoman Julia Pitkin was pick- ed first, to stay in will be kicked out." Mosher resident Jim Stewart viewed the lottery differently. Although he felt it was fair, he noted "It doesn't really determine who wants to be in the dorm. People put their names in for the hell of it." THE DRAWING at Mosher began prompt- ly. None of the speeches and fanfare from last year's lottery were evident, but the tension was still there. Some people were allegedly stoned,. Less than 60 per cent of the men who wished to reapply to Mosher were part of the 123 quota. More than 75 per cent of the women made the cut-off point: 83. Throughout the system, varying percent- ages of people will be allowed to return to their dorms. At Baits II, fewer people wished to reapply than the quota, so all will be allowed to return. AT SOUTH Quad, Ken Rahn drew the first slip of paper from the waste basket containing women's names. "The number 1 female is Susan Miller," he intoned. She smiled and walked out. dl-t - I " - 4 1 1
