TUESDAY, MAY 27, 1969 Ray Denied New Trial MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) James Earl Ray was denied a new trial yesterday in the assassination of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Judge Arthur C. Faquin Jr. ruled that Ray's March 10 guil ty plea to the slaying closed the door on another trial, an appeal or any other type of post conviction action by the defense. In addition, Faquin held, Ray ha d .signed voluntarily a waiver of these rights and had stated in open court he did so with full understanding and at his own free will. Attorney Notes Exception J. B. Stoner of Savannah, Ga., one of Ray's three at torneys, noted an exception to the decision. Later, he told newsmen that "some moves" would be made by the defense team, but he said just what Senate Officers, By STEVE SOLOMON Collegian Staff Writer The University Senate will announce its new officers for 1969-70 at its monthly meeting on June 3. A Senate committee also will propose that disadvantaged students be included in future entering classes at Penn State. at least in pro portion to their representation in the Com monwealth. -- Robert J. Scannell, chairman of the Senate, said last night that election ballots will not be counted until next Monday night, the eve of the Senate meeting. The election will close, however, at noon Monday. To Present Guidelines . The Senate Committee on Academic, Ad mission and Atheltic Standards will present two policy guidelines regarding University education for minority and poor youth: —that any groups considered to be included in the general definition of disadvantaged stu dents be included in the entering classes at IPenn State "at least to the extent that those groups are represented in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania." ,; Disadvantaged students have been defined by the committee as "those whose educational, social, or economic status, for reasons largely beyond their control, denies thein full op portunity for development in the society." The 'relevant groups in this state have been ,primarily considered to be two somewhat overlapping groups: black people and poor peo ple. The rationale behind this proposal is that Ithe University has a responsibility to . these groups of students to provide them with "the more equitable opportunity for development . that accrues from higher education." —that these groups be admitted to cam puses throughout the University system. The rationale behind the point is that the presence of disadvantaged groups serve as a valuable informal education in background dif ferences for the entire student body.

Further appeals by Ray could be based upon virtually any step in the prosecution of judging of the case thus far, a legal expert said. Karl Warden, Vanderbilt University professor of criminal law, said the ultimate route for any appeal probably would be a petition for a writ of habeas corpus, in which a verdict is set aside and the whole case is started over. Ray Fidgets As the judge read the lengthy opinion Ray, clad in a brown-checked sports coat, olive pants and yellow tic, fidgeted in his chair directly behind his lawyers. He alter natively crossed and uncrossed his legs and at times leaned his head on his hands. After the ruling, Faquin or- To Announce New Programs establishment of a central office to coordinate the entire admissions program. The Senate Committee on Committees and Rules will recommend the establishment of a Board of Student Affairs to consider,and formu late policy affecting student life. The formal proposal would be made by the Undergraduate Student Government, the Grad uate Student Association and the Organization of Student Government Associations in con junction with two Senate committees. The board would be composed predominantly of students, with some representation from the faculty and Administration. The Senate ad hoc Committee on The Daily Collegian will report its findings and recom mendations concerning the relationship bet ween the Collegian and Collegian, Inc., its publisher, and the University community. The Senate Committee on Faculty Affairs will present an informational report on faculty participation in decision-making, within the University. The committee will express the hope that more democratic procedures be followed and that all colleges develop faculty participation procedures in policy formation. The Senate Committee on Undergraduate Affairs will recommend a rule governing visitation in dormitories. Guests of the opposite sex will be permitted in residence hall rooms during specified • weekend hours, with regulations formulated by individual residence halls. The Senate will consider a recommendation for a switch to a two-semester plus Summer Term calendar. The proposal, tabled at the last Senate meeting, would establish fall and spring semesters of 15-week duration, with a Summer Term of 10 weeks. If passed. the calendar would become effective at the beginning of Summer Term 1971. The Ad Hoc Senate Committee on the Modern Land-Grant University will also present a modern interpretation of the academic responsibilities of a land-grant unive rsity, particularly Penn State. The report will include an appraisal of the current setting in which the University operates and a con sideration of future affairs concerning it. To the Members "of the Penn State Investment Club Owing to poor scheduling on my part, I failed to ap pear before your group last Thursday night. During the past eight years, I have taught a finance course in Business College, spoken be fore student groups, met with individual students, al ways encouraging an active interest in the field of busi ness and finance. I regret the inconvenience and .dis appointment that mig h t have accompanied this "no show" on my part. Most of all, I hope that none of the members of the Penn State Investment Club will in terpret my absence last Thursday evening as a lack oT interest in your group.• R. B. Williams, President ; •,-,nn dered that Ray be returned to his maximum-security cell in the state penitentiary a t Nashville to "continue serving his 99-year term. Sherif f William N. Morris said later that any time the state wanted Ray back, "It can come for him." The hearing before Faquin, who succeeds the late Judge W. Preston Battle in the case, was devoted to lengthy legal citations and arguments on fine legal points. Ray at times seemed disinterested and gaz ed around the council table. He did not take the stand. Trial Motion Revised At the outset, the defense struck from its new trial motion allegations that Ray had been denied effective counsel when he pleaded guilty and that there had been con flict of interest. 14-Week Switch G• S.

I'll fight it on the right, I'll fight it on the left, I'll fight it wherever I find it." Capp's performance, especially his handling of students' questions, alienated many in the audience. At one point, a stu dent tried to refute Capp's statements about McNamara by pointing out that McNamara had denied millions of young men their right to live their own lives. Capp remarked. "Your parents didn't spank you enough as a child." The remark caused considerable booing, and James Ham merlee, a guest panelist from Bucknell University. got up to shout a comment. Capp insisted he go to the mike and refused to listen to him when he cut in ahead of five people in line. THE SNEAKY SPERRY • TOPSIDER SHOE ;k4 STUDENTS SUMMER JOBS BASIC REQUIREMENTS 1.
