The series is conducted similarly to the Advocate's television series in which there is an affirmative and a negative advocate. Two witnesses for each side are questioned and cross-examined. Charles Oldfather, university attorney, moderated.
John Wright, professor of psychology and human development, the advocate for impeachment, called Mrs. Raymond Cerf, 100 Sunset Dr., as his first witness.
Curt said that the worst thing Nixon had done was to order the secret bombing of Cambodia—about 3,500 bombs. She said he had falsified records to cover the raids.
"The law means absolutely nothing to our President," Cert said.
SHE ALSO SAID that his support of the Huston bill, which allowed for increased surveillance of college campuses, the power to arrest students and the use of wristpits, moved his guilt.
naslash's name on Nixon's "enemy list" was the most revealing thing about the president.
"He can't tolerate anyone else's point of view. Anyone who disagrees with him is a dangerous enemy," she said. Cerf said that that was how dictators acted.
Cerf said that she was an enemy of Nixon's.
James M. Masuda, assist, professor of political science, the advocate for Nixon's defense, cross-examined Cerf. He said that impeachment was a political activity and that the grounds could be whatever the House of Representatives said they would
Cert replied that falsifying documents and deceiving the public were grounds.
ARTHUR KATZ, dean of the School of Social Welfare, was the second witness and a confessor.
He said impachment would be "a sound and healthy development for the nation at this time. Katz also said that problems in the country had grown in the past six years, but he lost his credibility and thus his ability to deal with industrial and labor leaders.
Faculty Senate Gets Small Crowd
Only five members and two reporters showed up for yesterday's meeting of the conference.
The Lawrence Daily Journal-World had incorrectly reported that the meeting had been canceled. The Journal-World said it received the wrong information from the office of Richard L. Von Ende, executive secretary of the University.

showed up were gerhard H. W. Zuther,

Masuda, cross-examining, said that neither problems in the country nor lack of confidence by the people were grounds for unreachment.

Katz replied that there was nothing to fear and everything to gain by impeaching him.
When comparing the Bay of Pigs with the Cambodia bombings, Grant said that Kennedy hadn't been threatened with impeachment but merely had to bear the weight of failure. He also said Nixon was justified in having Ellsberg's psychiatrist's office burglarized because Ellsberg was a possible security risk.
Carroll D. Grant, assistant professor of law, was the first witness for Nicon. He said that the things Nixon had been accused of weren't new and that his predecessors had done so.
Oldfather had earlier said that some witnesses were called upon to express views which they didn't hold. This became apparent when Wright asked Grant if he thought Nixon would resign if the charges against him were proved.
LAUGHING, GRANT said, "I don't think, that man will ever resus."
The second witness for Nixon, Clifford Ketzel, professor of political science, stressed Nixon's former and continuing foreign policy as a reason to not impeach him.
However, Grant said that no president since and including Roosevelt had avoided the chance to use the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to harass his opponents. This was similar to Nixon's alleged attempts to persuade the IRS to audit political enemies returns.

He said there was a special relationship between Nixon and Kissinger which had made the previous successes possible. He expressed fear that the European oil companies were preparing to arm imitation talks with the Soviet Union might be jeopardized by impeachment.
Wright, cross-examining Ketzel,
agrees that the diplomatic successes had
been misunderstood.
Ketzel insisted that Nixon and Kissinger had formed the ideal team, the president staying home and laying plans and Kissinger doing the footwork.
