Athens nixes consolidation
Athens, Ga. - As they did
in 1969, voters in Athens and
Clarke County Wednesday
turned down by a slim margin
a proposal to consolidate
their local governments.
The vote was 5,328 against
the proposal and 4,970 in
favor of it.
In a similar situation three

mostly voted for it, but those
living in the country were
mainly opposed.

That age-old passtime

such a revival in popularity since
last quarter's finals ended. With just
two days left before the three

warm. At least you can take to the

UHS helps
emotionally
troubled
By MICHELLE GREEN
Assistant news/feature editor
The Health Services provides
counseling not only for the
emotionally troubled student
but also helps the student who
is in the situation of dealing
with an unwanted pregnancy.
“Our physicians, who seethe
patient first, would be the first
to counsel her. Some of our
nurses also do problem
pregnancy counseling." said
Dr. Logan R. Campbell.
Rev. Clifton Hoffman is one
of the mininsters listed in the
red and grey information
pamphlet put out by the
Student-Eaculty-Administra-
Last in a senes
tion Advisory Committee on
Sex Education. Hoffman docs
“problem pregnancy
counseling," which means that
he help: the girl with an
unwanted pregnancy decide
what she should do, and if she
opts for an abortion he refers
her to an appropriate agency.
He also talks to the girl after
the operation and encourages
her to obtain further
counseling if she seems to have
emotional difficulties.
Hoffman, who has seen more
than thirty girls this year, first
asks "if the girl has told her
parents. If she hasn’t (most
don’t intend to) I point out
that most parents would like to
help.”
Many girls who seek
abortions are somewhat
immature. Hoffman feels.
“Many of them are unwilling
to face facts such as the need
for birth control," he said. "All
of them have a desire to be
loved, but they don’t make the
distinction between love and
sex. They engage in
exploitative behavior, which is
bad, because then you begin to
see people as objects rather
than as human beings."
“The girl may be caught off
guard arfd say that she didn’t
mean for it to happen." said
Dr. Campbell, “but in our day
and time there should be no
accidental pregnancies.
"The biggest factor in regard
to the girl’s emotional
well-being," said Dr. Campbell,
"is the feeling that she has a
choice in the matter. There will
be much less guilt involved and
the abortion will be less
psychologically dangerous if
she doesn't feel that someone
is telling her what to do."

RYDER, LAW DEAN MEET
Senate still homeless
A meeting yesterday morning to
discuss rescinding the ban on Student
Senate meetings in the Law School
auditorium was fruitless.
Senate President Art Ryder met
with Associate Law Dean Charles
Ellington to request reconsideration
of the ban which ousted the Senate
last week during its allocations
meetings.
The order to find other facilities in
which to convene came when
Ellington received complaints that
several senators were drinking beer
in the auditorium at Senate meetings
both Tuesday and Wednesday nights.
Ellington said his ban was the result
of several complaints concerning the
conduct of the Senate in the past as
well as the presence of beer at last
week’s convenings.
THE LAW SCHOOL administrator
said he heard reports several months
ago that the facilities were being
abused by people in the gallery
extinguishing cigarettes on the
furniture.
**l talked to an officer of the
Senate at that time. He said he
thought they could control it."
Ellington said. "I told him as far as I
was concerned the Senate was on
probation then."
According to Ryder the Senate had
also been reprimanded by the
administration of the Law School
winter quarter when some members

of the gallery brough marijuana to a
meeting. The illegal weed was brougt
during a session in which senators
were discussing an endorsement of
marijuana legalization
THE BEER DRINKING incident
was the occurrence which the Law
School found objectionable since
Ryder became president of the
Senate.
Ryder said that he had not ordered
those at the Senate deliberations to
keep beer out of the auditorium
because its presence was not illegal
and other beverages were being
consumed in the auditorium.
The Senate met last Thursday in
the Biological Sciences Building, but
Ryder said that no definite place had
been established for future meetings.
"I’m afraid we might have to get
them as we come to them," Ryder
said.
Thirty-one students, charged with
criminal trespass in connection with
a May 3 sit-in in University President
Fred Davison's office, were bound
over to the State Court of Clarke
County Wednesday afternoon.
The students waived their right to a
hearing in the City Court of Athens
and were bound over to the August
session of state court.
Two other students, David Alonso
and Steve Letzsch, were bound over
to that court after a hearing also
before Preston M. Almand,
magistrate court judge, in city court.
In telling the court of his clients’
request that they be bound over.
Attorney Bruce Lowry placed a
conditional stipulation on the action.
If at any time he feels that his
clients' rights are violated, he and the
solicitor have agreed that he may
examine the state’s witnesses, he
said. This would have the effect of a
new hearing.
ALSO. WEDNESDAY, the
obscenity charge against William
Walton Harris was thrown out of
court after Lowry pointed out that
the law under which he was charged
had been ruled unconstitutional by
the Supreme Court.

Dorms hit
by Tuesday
parity raid
By BOB GILLETTE
The days of raccoon coats and
beanies returned to the University
Tuesday night at 11:30. No, it wasn't
Georgia vs. Yale; it was a panty raid,
or almost a panty raid.
According to Major William T.
Dean of the campus police, a group
of University males made a tour of
the campus' dorms which wound up
at Creswell Hall.
“There was no real problem," said
Dean. “No harm was done and no
arrests were made.”
Eyewitnesses reported that the
group of male students swelled to a
crescendo of 600 voices yelling, "We
want a panty raid,” and being
answered trom the girl’s dorms by
rolls of wet toilet paper.
The fire alarm was set off in
Creswell Hall, and some residetns
made it out into the cool morning air
before the alarm was shut off.
Campus police stationed themselves
between the would-be raiders and the
shivering coeds.
The entire incident was over by
1:30 a.m.
In an incident unrelated to the
panty raid, the Athens Fire
Department extinguished an
automobile fire on campus at
approximately 12:30 a.m. Two
trucks answered the call at Creswell
HalL
The group of male students were
turned back time and tune again, but
each time, the determined students
regrouped between Russell Hall and
CresweD Hall and returned in larger
numbers.
“The boys were stupid,” said an
RA at Creswel Hall, “All they had to
do was wait until midnight, then
they could have just walked into the
place and no one could have stopped
them."
