(A) - Black Panther Chairman Bobby G. Scale is flee on bond after 21 months in prison and two sensational mistrials. Seale, 34-year-old cofounder of the Black Panther party, was mobbed by about 100 jubilant Panther sympathizers as he walked out of the Federal Court Building late yesterday after- noon. The crowd in c 1 u d e d three members of the jury that dead- locked earlier this week in the mistrial of Seale and a local Panther leader on charges stem- ming from 'he 1969 killing of another Panther. The first people to greet Seale as a free man were his brother John and David Hilliard, Panth- er chief of staff. Seale kissed two of the jurors, and warmly embraced the third, jury foreman Robert Gauthier. "I wish I could have stood up and acquitted you in court," G a ut h i e r told the Panther leader. The kisses went to Barbara Lanier. one ot the five black women on the jury, and to Ni- nette Martino. Miss Lanier said she went to the federal building because "I just wanted to see him a free man." Then he left the building to the cheers of the crowd. Seale raised both arms with his fists clenched. Seale declined to talk to news- men. He jumped into a car and headed for New York City, where he was to catch a flight for San Francisco and a con- ference with Black Panther Min- ister of Defense Huey P. New- ton. Seale had been in the federal building here awaiting the ar- rival of legal papers from Chi- cago. A federal circuit court of ap- peals judge in Chicago approved, over government objections, the release of Seale on $25,000 bond pending his appeal of a four year contempt of court sentence stemming from the Chicago 3 conspiracy trial. The decision to release Seale came after a New Haven Super- ior Court judge dismissed all charges against Seale and a co- defendant because of the mis- trial. Four of those charges could have brought the death penalty. "I'm not guilty. I was acquit- ted in that courtroom," said Seale as he left the state prisoi at Montville and headed for New Haven to sign the bond papers. BOBBY SEALE, Black Panther leader, is taken for the last time from the State Correctional Center at Montville, Conn. on his way to the New Haven Federal Building for final release processing. Charges against him and Erika Huggins were dismissed in New Haven Superior Court, last Tuesday. Bomb test site placed near7 nerve gas ump JUNEAU, Alaska OP) - The U. chain. That's about 70 miles S.

Record seeks to expand communications BY ROSE SUE BERSTEIN Since last October, the University com- miunity has been receiving free each week the administration house organ, "The University Recrd," as an official source of information ab,$t University events. The University Recora had formerly been published for weekly distribution to faculty and staff members as a jour- nal of University affairs aimed at aca- demic employes. But at the September Regents meet- ing, former Regent Paul Goebel, (R- Grand Rapids) proposed that the admin- istration sponsor its own record of Uni- versity news, since he considered The Daily unfairly biased. Because the University was already publishing the Record, it was decided to expand it and to increase the scope of its distribution and interest rather than start an entirely new publication. Record Managing Editor Sharon Yo- der, '63, thinks it fits in with a national trend towards such products. "Universi- ties all over the country are going to a fuller information route as far as cam- pus publications." she says. Yoder's office, on the sixth floor of the Administration Building, is not equipped with a typewriter. Yoder is the only full-time staff mem- her of the Record. Others include Execu- tive Editor Ted Bonus, who is also di- rector of State and Community. Rela- tions in the office of University Rela- tions; Contributing Editor Lou Cartier, editor of the University News, a publi- cation intended primarily for non-aca- demic employes; and Reporter Jana Bommersbach, Grad. a journalism in- tern with University Relations, and President of Graduate Assembly. The Record is printed locally every Saturday during the year by a private firm. It is distributed by University em- ployes, on Monday mornings. For the summer, the Record has re- duced its printing schedule to every two weeks and has reduced its press run from 22,000 to about 10,000. Yoder could give no estimate of how much the University pays for the Re- cord. Yoder perceives no conflict be tween her concept of a newspaper and the use of the Record as an administrative ve- hicle. "I question the term 'administrative mouthpiece.' We use the newspaper con- cept but we aren't a newspaper. How can you be when you come out only once a week?" she asks. See 'U', Page 10
