positions within her office, Shankel said. "I'm convinced that Professor Townsend will continue to see that the rights of all minorities at KU are protected," he said.
Margaret Williams, Lawrence junior, said she and four or five other American students applied for tutors this semester but didn't ask any response from the SES. She said she said a similar problem last year and, as a result, had to drop a course she was enrolled in.
Suspect said the students brought the problem to his attention and he told Townsend.
He said that Townsend told him, "Have
the kids come in tomorrow and we'll work this out."
The meeting between the students and Tomasch this week was successful.
"I people of our town over there told them that we had to have tutors before eight or nine weeks of the semester passed. We used to us one—we just had to insist," she said.
She said they had been told they would have to have their transcripts from other schools sent to the University before they could get tutors.
"I tried to explain to her that it wasn't something personal and that we needed the tutors right when classes started because you've got to understand what's going on right from the beginning or you won't be able to keep up," she said.
Williams said she tried to explain that their records were handled through the
Office of Student Financial Aid and that a phone call could provide research information in connection with the grant.
When the students asked for a tutor,
Townsman Williams kept saying, "Well, I don't
know."
"I think that she took it as a personal attack," Williams said. "I don't think that I got through to her that we just wanted a tutor."
Strachan wants charge dropped
From the Associated Press
A Watergate coverup defendant, former White House aneurysm Strachan, yesterday asked U.S. District Court Judge John Foley to attack against him on grounds that the pardon granted Richard Koch in Gerald N. Ford made a coverup prosecution unconstitutional.
Strachan's lawyer said Ford's pardon of "one coconspirant" (Nixon) must, both in law and equity, be construed as a pardon for all others named in the indictment and charges with the same conspiracy."
Nixon was named an unindicted coconspirator in the coverup case.
In another development, the special prosecutor's office prepared a list of tapes and documents it wanted from Nixon's White House files for use in the coverup trial and in other possible prosecutions.
But Sirica yesterday stopped an effort by John D. Ehrlichman
to subpoena hundreds of documents and tapes left behind in the White House.
Lawyers for Ehrlichman, former domestic affairs chief at the Lawyers, said the material was needed for the Watergate coverup.
Among the items sought were all tapes of presidential conversations involving a discussion of the Waterate affair.
At the request of the Watergate special prosecutor's office, Sirice quashed two subpoenas sent by Ehrlichman's lawyers to H. S. Knight, director of the Secret Service and custodian of records from the administration of former President Nixon.
"The Ehrlichman subpoena lack specificity," Sirica said during a brief pretrial hearing.
Associate special prosecutor James F. Neal said during the hearing that many of the items sought by Ehrlichman in the subpoena already had been provided or were available for review by Ehrlichman at the White House.
