Following a standing ovation,
Sostre thanked members of the
audience who had "allowed me
to be free from the dungeons."
He added, "When the higher
courts won't intefere with the
lower courts, the only thing to
do (to achieve justice) is to
appeal to the consciences of the
masses."
While in prison Sostre spent a
total of eight years in solitary
confinement for his refusal to

BECAUSE OF his rebellion,
Sostre claims he was beaten
by guards eleven times and
transferred from prison to pri-
son. However, he was able to
wage a successful lawsuit win-
ning the right for prisoners of
Muslim faith to worship freely.
Citing the current Bicenten-
nial year, Sostre said, "We
don't have to go overseas to
see people who have freed +hem-
selves - it's here."
"Be true to the history of this
country. Exhaust all means,
emulate the means of the found-
ing fathers," he continued.
"When the law is repressive,
has lost mandates and has ab-
dicated duty to the people, we're
justified in not obeying deci-,
sions constructed to control hu-
man dignity and erode ourj
rights."

trial. His comments made it
appear that the 65-year-old
jurist was not inclined toward
leniency at this time.
"The offense here of which
the defendant was found guilty
is a most serious offense and
one which . . . could be classi-
fied as being both brutal and
violent," the judge said.
THREE WEEKS ago, a jury '
found 22-year-old Hearst guilty
of willingly joining Symbionese
Liberation Army members in
robbing a Hibernia Bank branch
in San Francisco on April 15,
1974, ten weeks after the tiny
band of terrorists had kidnaped
her.
She was calm and unsurprised'
by the judge's ruling. Her at-
torneys had prepared her for
the possibility.
"Patty knew in advance,"
lawyer Al Johnson said later.
"She understood what our rec-
ommendation would be prior to
going into court. She consented
to our proposal."
U.S. MARSHAL Frank Klein
said after the court proceedings
that Hearst would undergo the
psychiatric evaluations at the
Metropolitan Correctional Cen-
ter in San Diego.
He said the bank robber-
heiress would be flown to Los
Angeles tomorrow for a pretrial
hearing on state kidnaping, rob-
bery and assault charges stem-1
ming from a crime spree therei
a month after the Hibernia Bank1
holdup.1
She will be taken to the fed-
eral facility in San Diego after
the Los Angeles hearing, Klein
said.
Hearst wished to speak in herI
own behalf.
SHE AROSE and answered
softly, "No, your Honor."
Carter once more apprised
her of her right to speak. "Yes,
I understand, your honor," she
said, then sat down.
Johnson said outside the court-
room that the judge still has the
option of placing Hearst on pro-
bation and that the defense
would continue to urge such a
sentence.
IN BRIEF comments after the
hearing, Bailey mentioned in
passing Hearst's potential "co-
operation" with law enforcement
authorities as a possible mitigat-
ing factor in her sentencing.
The judge said he would not
consider that issue now.
"The degree of cooperation

sequence here," he said. ". .

THE auburn - haired Hearst,
pale and thin, was clad in a.
gray vested pants suit with
peach-colored blouse as she
strode into the packed court-
room for the first time since
her March 20 conviction.
She nodded to her parents and
sisters, who appeared somber.
Twice during the brief pro-
ceedings, Carter asked whether
WASHINGTON (A)-Producer
Norman Lear, who injected top-
ical controversy into TV comedy,
has offered to help political
leaders start a controversial)
program of their own.
Lear, whose TV ventures in-
clude "All in the Family" and
"Maude," urged senators yes-
terday to start a no-holds-barred
television debate program if
they truly want to get the public
more involved in government.
A SERIES of great debates by
politicians on controversial is-
sues would be watched by mil-
lions and "would do no less
well" than "Mary Hartman,l
Mary Hatrman," Lear's newest
hit, the producer said.
He testified before the Senate
Foreign Relations Committee on
the question of whether the
American public cares about
foreign policy.
To counter the apathy of many
Americans to government, Lear
told the senators, "you must in- I
volve them . . . by allowing
yourselves to butt heads and I
opinions in public forums, by
making no secret of the vary-
ing winds of conflict in the,
