4 Page 2 - The Michigan Daily - Monday, February 16, 1987 Jury finds Pursell By STEVE BLONDER A jury found the remaining defendants in the "Pursell 118" case guilty of trespassing on Friday. Judge George Alexander gave the 108 convicted protesters a choice between paying a $40 fine, performing 20 hours of community service, or working one night at the Ann Arbor homeless shelter before April 24. The charge will be deleted from the defendants' records if they choose one of these alternatives. If the defendants refuse these choices, they must appear in court for alternative sentencing on April 3. The defendants are meeting tonight to determine whether or not to file an appeal. LSA Sophomore David Austin, a defendant in the case, feels that Alexander's sentencing options do not constitute a penalty, since the same options were offered to each defendant before the case went to trial last week. According to juror Ralph Stephenson, the videotapes shown by the prosecutor of the protesters protesters being arrested was the decisive i evidence in the case.1 Prosecuting attorney Bob I Cooper's case revolved around those l videotapes which showed building owners John Seeley and Doug Roberts asking the demonstrators to 1 leave. The defense based its case on the good character of the defendants and the notion that people of good 1 character are not likely to commit at crime. Molly Reno, an attorney for the defense, raised the possibility thatI guilty the third owner of the building, Phil Bowen, may have given the protesters permission to be there. Nancy Francis, another defense attorney, said the building does not officially close at the end of normal business hours so the protesters did not have to leave. The defendants were arrested over a four-day period last March while prostesting U.S. Representative Carl Pursell's support for President Reagan's plan to send $100 million in military and humanitarian aid to the Nicaraguan Contra rebels.

House panel blasts Reagan WASHINGTON - President Reagan was poorly prepared for the U.S.-Soviet summit meeting last October and the two-day meetinge ended with "an astonishing degree of confusion" about potential nuclear - arms control agreements, the House Armed Services Committee said' yesterday. The report by the Democratic-controlled panel was sharply critical of Reagan and his administration, citing confusion and disputes among U.S. officials about the wide-ranging arms control proposals discussed and almost accepted by Reagan and Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev. ;. "With the value of hindsight, it is possible to suggest that the'. Reagan administration was ill-prepared for the negotiations it participated in, and consequently, would have been ill-served had its product been accepted," the panel said. White House officials denied comment on the report, saying they had EXTRAS > 68-year-old professor travels cross-country on bike, skates BERRIEN SPRINGS, Mich (AP) - A 68- year-old college instructor plans to lace up her walking shoes this month and walk, bicycle, skateboard and roller skate her way from California to South' Carolina.
