MSU professor loses
12-year tenure fight

.

CINCINNATI (UPI> - A federal ap-
peals court yesterday rejected a college
professor's 12-year effort to obtain
tenure at Michigan State University.
The 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals
ruled Dr. John Hildebrand's con-
stitutional rights were not violated when
Michigan State refused to grant him
tenure in 1968.
HILDEBRAND, who had criticized
the schools's social sciences depar-
tment, claimed he was denied tenure in
illegal retaliation for exercising his
First Amendment "freedom of speech"
rights.
A jury last year agreed with
Hildebrand and awarded him back pay,
damages and directed Michigan State
to reinstate him.


But a district court then overturned
the jury's decision and ruled in favor of
Michigan State.
The appellate court yesterday agreed
with the district court, deciding the 1968
faculty vote against Hildebrand's tenure
was based on "constitutionally per-
missible reasons."
In reviewing the case, the court noted
that "for the past 12 years Dr.
Hildebrand has been contesting his
denial of tenure in one forum or
another.
"He complained to the American
Association of University Professors.
He tried a series of intra-university ap-
peals. He also filed two unfair labor
practice charges with the Michigan
Employment Relations Commission."

Sigma Chi members
break into sorority house
The composite picture of Kappa Kap-
pa Gamma sorority almost fell into the
clutches of pranksters; but the Ann Ar-
bor Police spoiled the fun of two enter-
prising members of Sigma Chi frater-
nity.
The students, who had been drinking,
entered the sorority house at 3 a.m.
Friday, looking for the picture of all the
house members, according to reports
from Sigma Chi president Dave Wright
and the police. A resident called the
police after hearing the.screams of her
sorority sister, who had seen the
suspects entering the house.
The culprits were apprehended and
escorted to the police station for
questioning, but were released later
because the complainant decided not
to press charges. Wright said that the
caper wasn't a fraternity-sponsored af-

fair. "As president, I wouldn't condone
it," he said.
Break-in on Kingsley
An apartment on the 700 block of
Kingsley was broken into Sunday
evening police said yesterday. Five
hundred and ninety dollars worth of
stereo equipment and a calculator were
taken. Although the method of entry is
unknown, the thiefs may have entered
through the front door. The complain-
ant told police that she remembered
locking it when she left, however, the
door was found open when she retur-
ned.
