Police Seize Two Students For Anvil Sales
Two members of the Socialist Study club were picked up by the Lawrence police, yesterday while selling Anvil magazines off campus.
Dan Gallin, college senior, and Ann Mari Buitrego, graduate student, were taken to police headquarters about 1 p.m. yesterday and held for three hours before being released. No charges were filed against them.
"The policemen who took us in would give no explanation as to why we were being arrested," Gallin said. "We refused to answer any questions until we were informed of the charges. The police would tell us nothing so we told them nothing."
The two students were locked up for about 30 minutes after refusing to answer questions.
Donald K. Alderson, assistant dean of men, was called to the station and he verified that the Socialist Study club is a legitimate campus organization. He asked police to drop any charges.
Assistant county attorney, Bob Oyler, questioned the two. He asked only routine questions as to names, classification, and ages. It was explained that they had been picked up after about five phone calls complaining of Anvil sales.
Anvil magazine is published by the Socialist Study club in collaboration with five organizations from other campuses.
Gallin said they were also selling other socialist pamphlets and a pamphlet by the United Auto Workers' education department. Police took all of the pamphlets and magazines to the station with the students and kept a copy of each after they released the students.
Lawrence police refused to comment today on the arrests.
Sale of the magazine and pamphlets will continue Friday, Gallin said.

Other numbers on the program will be "Overture to Die Freischutz" by Weber and "Symphony No. 5½" by Gillis. The "symphony in fun" was named "5½" because it was written between the fifth and sixth symphonies of the composer.

One restaurant employee has quit, and another is threatening to do so because of the issue over segregation of Negro students in the four privately-owned Hill restaurants.
She also said that one of the Negroes employed by the cafe in its back room as a dishwasher and cook was "thinking about quitting."
"This is the first time we have ever been faced with a situation of this sort," she said. "Greg (Gleason Gregory, Rock Chalk propstor) wants to help him with his customers. He doesn't care one way or another." she added.
The waitress said she thought "Gree" was planning to devise a petition of his own. "He is thinking of hanging this petition in the cafe to get his customers' opinions on the matter," she said.
William Wilson, president of the All Student Council, said yesterday that the Council could take no direct action on the matter this semester.
"However," he said, "the last meeting of the ASC set up an opportunities committee which should be concerned with the matter."
William Nulton, chairman of the committee, said the opportunities committee "would make every effort to get together with other student groups interested in the problem." He said he was waiting for the ASC president to finish appointing two or three more students to his committee before it could start to function effectively.
