Speaker Ban Resolution
Dies, Confusion Lingers

By DARRELL RICE
UK President John W. Oswald met with three state legislators Thursday morning and
succeeded in convincing them
not to introduce a resolution
barring an antiwar conference
here, but some confusion seems
to remain.
After the meeting Rep. Phillip King
said he
would not introduce his resolution because he is satisfied the
University is exercising care in
screening speakers allowed on
campus.
He also said Dr. Oswald had
informed him the University

from coming here-li- ke

Dr. Oswald's statement begins.
Campus coordinator for the
conference David Elkinton said,
"Dr. Oswald's statement makes
it clear that the University does
have a firm policy of academic
freedom."
Although Dr. Oswald strongly defended the right to free
speech in his position statement,
he also said exercise of freedom
of speech here must be responsiblerelevant to the educational function of the University,
orderly and
Rep. King later Thursday
read his own statement to the
House, urging all state universities to adopt it as their policies,
on campus speakers.
Rep. King's statement says
students should "have an opportunity to question, review
and discuss the opinions of
speakers representing a wide
range of viewpoints."
But it also says "the appearance as a visiting speaker on
campus of one who advocates
any ideology or form of government which is wholly alien to
our basic democratic institutions
should be infrequent and then
only when it would clearly serve
the advantage of education."
Rep. King said Do Oswald
had agreed to present this statement of policy to the University's Board of Trustees, and he
said he was under the impression that Dr. Oswald would
recommend the statement for
adoption.
Dr. Oswald could not be
reached for confirmation, however.

Students who arrive at the

before game time will be admitted, either to such seats as rebamain or on a standing-roosis if all seats have been taken.
Ticket Manager Harvey Hodges said the new plan, which
becomes effective for the LSU

G)liseum several hours before the
usual 8 p.m. starting time. In
most instances, he added, it is
possible to estimate with accuracy the total student turnout by
the number who are present 30
minutes before the start of a game.

To be admitted, a student
must have his ID card validated.
According to Al Morgan, supervisor of the Student Athletic Admission Department, 1,500 students have failed to do this.

ID's can be validated 8 a.m.
to 12 noon and 1:30 to 4:30 p.m.
daily in Room C of Memorial

his office Saturday so students
can have their ID's validated for

Government Adopts Antisccrccy Code
By WALTER GRANT

College Press Service
WASHINGTON
Although
opposition to secret research on
has inuniversity
campuses
creased during the past six
months, the Pentagon claims universities have not responded by
backing down on their classified
research agreements.
In fact, a Defense Department
official said some college and university administrations have responded by writing the Pentagon expressing their willingness
to take on secret research projects,
or to increase the number they
now have. These administrations
apparently want to make their
positions exceedingly clear in
case some universities decide to
drop their classified projects.
Dr. Arwin A. Dougal, assis-

-

tant director of the Pentagon's

office for research and engineering, conceded that some university administrations, recognizing
the possibility that some schools
may discontinue their secret Defense Department projects, are
grabbing for the research dollar.
"Some of them may be like good
businessmen who are always trying to get more business," he
said.
But Dougal says the "large
majority" of the letters have
shown the universities "have a
sincere concern about the national security." These universities
have indicated they realize that
classified research, although possibly undesirable, is necessary
for this nation's security, he said.
Defense Department research
is conducted in four basic secDefense research
tors:
laboratories; industries; Federal

Research Contract Centers, and
universities. "The university sector is one of the very strongest
sectors," Dougal said.
Dougal also said many professors who have been involved in
secret research projects attempt
to retain their security clearances
when their projects, are completed. "Many attempt to get involved in conducting more classified research, and others want to
serve as advisers to research laboratories," he explained.
In the past two months, there
have been some indications that
the government has been responding to the protests against classified research by easing its policies toward secrecy. Two specific events support this trend.
They are:
The Pentagon announced
that it is "declassifying" some
projects now underway at universities. But the announcement
applies only to classified projects in the area of basic research,
and most secret research falls
under the category of applied
research.

The State Department announced that it has drawn up
an

anti-secrec-

code designed to

y

apply to all research in the be

the Central

Intelli-

gence Agency, and the Executive Office of the President say
they will abide by the Code.
But Dougal cautioned against
interpreting the two announcements as meaning the government is softening its position
on secret research. "There are
many projects w hich simply have
to be classified," he said. "What
these announcements show is
that there is a desire to not classify projects when it is not neces-

sary."
The new Pentagon policy will

not have a significant impact
on university research because
only 13S of the more than 4,000
basic research projects were secret to begin with.
The new
code announced by. the State Department also affects only a small
amount of research. It does not
include any natural science research, nor does it include research done within the United
States. There are no provisions
for enforcement; agreement is
