KU Mock Court Debates Rights
Bv Barbara Howell
"Do you mean that you don't feel any different about spending the evening at an ice cream parlor than you do at a tavern?" the judge asked.
The young man shuffled through his papers nervously. "Well, yes."
The scene was a mock trial held at 4 p.m. yesterday in the court room of Green Hall. The question before the court was whether a Kansas statute, known as the antidiscrimination, or civil rights law, classified taverns as places of entertainment or merely as retail stores.
A MAN HAD BEEN refused service by a tavern owner. The man had taken the case to court, and the court had ruled that because a tavern was a place of public entertainment the tavern owner was guilty of violating the civil rights law.
The tavern owner took his case to the Court of Appeals on the basis that his establishment was not a place of entertainment. His counsels were Robert D. Beall, Leavenworth law student, and John Carpenter, Lawrence law student.
They maintained that the primary purpose of the tavern was to sell malted beverages and not to amuse the customers. On this basis, they insisted the owner had the right to refuse service to a customer.
THE STATE, represented by John M. Russell, Great Bend law student, and Charles V. Fishel, Lawrence law student, said that such things as a juke box or pinball machine made a tavern a place of entertainment.
The owner's counsels said that these devices were merely to entice the customers just as an ice cream parlor might have a radio or a grocery store might have music or jackpots.
After the counsels had debated the question for an hour and a half, the judges left to make their decision. Soon they filed back in.
The presiding judge, Charles H. Oldfather, professor of law, declared that the judges, by a vote of 2 to 1 had reversed the decision of the lower court.
In the opinion of the mock court, the Kansas statute did not include taverns as places of public entertainment.

California Birch Society Is Under Investigation
SACRAMENTO, Calif. —(UPI)— The John Birch Society was the target of both the executive and legislative branches of the California government today.
The California Attorney General's office was reported to be making an investigation of the society, some of whose principal organizers are located in Southern California.
State Attorney General Stanley Mosk warned in a speech before the Tuolumne County Chamber of Commerce that "fanatical groups on the extreme right" must be as closely checked as the Communists, for they are "equally dangerous to democracy."
The hearing by the assembly rules committee is considering a proposal to request a federal investigation of the society.
"This is an organization to fight Communists," said Assemblyman Gordon I. Winton. "The Hitler organization started out the same way and attracted some very respectable businessmen."
Meanwhile, a committee of the California State Legislature began hearings on the Birch Society. One lawmaker testified it "reminds us very much" of the Hitler organization in Germany before World War II.
In Beverly Hills, a spokesman for the Birch Society in Beverly Hills rejected the help of the American
Paul H. Talbert, noting the ACLU planned to oppose any investigation of the Society by a California Senate committee, said the group was unimpressed by the "gratuitous and unsolicited concern" of the ACLU.

"We have been vilified and smeared beyond description and are prepared to state the principles and purposes for which we stand at any time or any place," he said.
