Myers, a Democrat elected in a staunchly Republican district in the aftermath of Watergate, served in the Senate between 1975 and 1976 filling a vacancy created by the death of George ' Wade. 0 Mindful of his constituency, Myers often voted with the Republicans and on one 'occasion was publicly chastised by his fellow Democrats.

Shapp, who can name three members to the panel, has said he will let Governor-elect Dick Thornburgh make one of the selections.

Michael O'Pake, D • Berks, said he hopes the measure will :balance the competing interests of a - strong free press with that of defendants : in criminal cases. : "This past year, Pennsylvania's - media played a vital role in improving *state government by making the public ‘..and elected officials aware of the need for certain and substantial reforms," O'Pake said in a statement. ' "Unwarranted searches and seizures -in newsrooms and the disclosure of , confidential sources may only impede the public's right to know,) 3 , he added. • • Under the measure, a prosecutor 'could obtain a warrant or subpoena for ;,could obtain in a reporter's possession :only if it amounts to contraband or -''fruits of a crime." T - However, a defendant would be per (lVmitted to obtain a warrant or subpoena :for anything necessary to prove his "innocence. - A reporter or newspaper could move :to quash a subpoena, but it would mean a judge would have to privately view the :material to decide whether it falls within *0 ;the limits set by the bill. O'Pake said his judiciary committee •will hold hearings on the bill. r M iinr merge OM AWNS _ - 7.
