Court finds sailor guilty for causing disaffection
Police given ice cream by parlor owner
WASHINGTON (UPI) — A courtmartial jury found seaman Roger Lee Priest guilty Thursday night of two charges of causing disloyalty and disaffection among servicemen but acquitted him of six other charges, including sedition.
BERKELEY, Calif. (UPI) The Berkeley police department was presented with 30 gallons of ice cream Thursday by the owners of an ice cream parlor that refused to serve two officers.
The jury of five Navy commissioned officers deliberated for nearly seven hours after getting
Police Lt. R. B. Johnston and officer Carl Lipgens tried to buy cones at Swensen's Ice Cream store near the University of California during last week's anti-ROTC rampages.
They have asked the FBI to investigate because they felt their civil rights were violated.
Bill Meyer, general manager of Swensen's, said the refusal was the action "of a single employee on his own. We don't feel that way."
He added that it will be "a cold Sunday before this happens again."
The police department couldn't accept the ice cream because of their status as public officials, but Meyer said the 30 gallons would be donated in the force's name to nursery schools in Berkeley.
the courtmartial case at the end of the one-week trial. Defense attorney David Reim said he would appeal the guilty verdicts.
Capt. B. Raymond Perkins, the military judge, set sentencing for Monday. Priest, 26, faces a possible maximum sentence of three years in jail on each of the two charges and a dishonorable discharge from the Navy.
OXFORD, Ohio (UPI)—Butler County Sheriff Harold Carpenter denied Thursday he used police dogs indiscriminately to break up a student demonstration at Miami University last week. He said he would not risk his dogs on "ill-bred and ill-mannered" students
Priest was found guilty of "design to promote disloyalty and disaffection among members of the armed forces of the United States" by publishing and distributing two issues of the antiwar publication, "Om, the Serviceman's Newsletter."
Sheriff denies canine controlled demonstration
About 170 students were arrested April 15 following a sit-in at an armory on campus. Carpenter defended the actions of his deputies and other police departments in breaking up the demonstration.
Among the charges Priest was acquitted of were inciting desertion and sedition among servicemen. The other charges involved smaller technicalities such as circulation of the first pamphlet.
Perkins had instructed the jury before giving it the decision that it was not to consider Priest's antiwar views in determining its verdict.
