1 Eisemann-Schier Nabbed By LINDA KLEINDIENST Of TtW Kvrric*n* Stiff Ruth Eisemann-Schier. charged with the December kidnapping of Barbara Jane Mackle, was arrested in Norman, Oklahoma, at 3:05 Wednesday afternoon. At the time of her arrest, Miss Eisemann-Schier was working at the Boomerang Restaurant, a popular university hangout about a mile from the University of Oklahoma campus. Seven FBI agents were present at the arrest, but only two agents got out of the car and made the arrest. They had with them a man who had been dating Miss Eisemann-Schier. When she walked out to meet the man, an employee of the Central State Hospital, the agents took her by the arm and placed her in the car. Miss Eisemann-Schier, under the assumed name of Donna S. Wills, had been working at the restaurant as a car hop since February 16. She was traced by the FBI from an application she had made for a nursing position at Central State Hospital on February 27. A routine check of her fingerprints was made. On Wednesday morning, Jean Price, employee of the Oklahoma State Crime Bureau and former technician for the Washington FBI office, identified Miss Eisemann-Schier’s prints. She took the prints to Paul Boyd, chief identification officer of the crime bureau and also a former FBI employee. The arrest was witnessed by the Boomerang’s manager, Lewis Armstrong. He said, “There was nothing really suspicious about the woman, although I did suspect that she hadn’t been born in the States. She talked like Zsa Zsa Gabor.” Miss Eisemann-Schier had told the owner of the restaurant, Bob Lehman, that she had come from Edmond, Oklahoma, where she lived with her father and invalid stepmother. She told Lehman she had a fight with them eight months ago and then moved out. She had come to Norman to go to school, she claimed. University records showed Miss Eisemann-Schier had never been enrolled at the schooL 4 Lehman said, “I can’t stress enough what a sweet, innocent girl she seemed to be. She was pretty, had long brunette hair and a baby face, was very unassuming and meek, not like she was described in the magazines.’’ Miss Eisemann-Schier was taken to Oklahoma City for arraignment before U.S. Commissioner James Gullett. In Gulleft’s office, she reportedly spoke in a very soft voice and joked with the crime bureau in German. She complained of a .cold and munched on lifesavers.

Those representatives not present were: Mary Lampel, Sharon Garmen. Linda Enz, Richard Bergman, Bruce Dresner, Marty Weinkle, Pere Hill, Barry Taylor, Bill «Councill, and Irene Trionfet-ti. The apparent reason for the lack of attendance was the conflicting Greek Week activities. Of all those not attending, only one was a Greek. * Although not Jp official Continued on Page 6 sembly. A group of about 73 students gathered to hear speeches by USG President Mike Abrams, and treasurer Tom Rebel. The small turnout at the rally was accented by the very small number of chairs which were set up on the patio. Students on their way to lunch stopped momentarily to listen to the Colwell-Winfield Blues Band, and went on their way when the speakers began. Abrams told the students that a sufficient number of the 17 demands had been granted to justify calling off his proposed class boycott. Among the points mentioned was that faculty and administrators in the future will have to pay for their parking decals, and unpaid faculty parking fines will be sent to the appropriate department office. Abrams also mentioned the acceptance of the pass-fail system and the abolition of women’s curfews, both to be instituted in September. Treasurer Tom Rebel discussed the plans for a Rath-skellar, which has been theoretically agreed to, pending solutions to legal problems. Rebel also discussed the gradual abolition of the mandatory board plan. No new board plan cafeterias have been planned, he said, and next year all seniors, graduate students, and fraternity pledges will be released from the plan. This may be followed by the release of juniors. Meal cards will be accepted In the pay cafeteria with a certain price limit for each meal. Hurricane editor Pamela Amlong, acting as moderator, called for questions to be directed to the speakers. Abrams was asked whether or not the decision to call off the boycott had been entirely his, without approval of the steering committee. He replied this was true, to an extent. Another student commented that only six of the 17 points had been agreed to. Finally, one student told the rapidly diminishing audience they were wasting their time and should go home. Five students asked questions. Two members of the steering committee, Tempo editor Tom Wilson and columnist Vic Fischer, were not present. The final speaker of the day was Norm Manassa, a member of Abram’s Cabinet, followed by another half hour of the Colwell-Winfield Blues Band. By SHARA PAVLOW Of TIN Hurricane Staff Dr. Henry King Stanford and a group of top administrators faced students Tuesday night in an informal question-answer period for the first time in almost a year. The administrators were featured In “An Evening with the Establishment,” this semester’s second University Forum discussing topics ranging from Day of Conscience demands to UM’s financial solvency. Some 200 students turned out for the Forum including fraternity men, independents, and several university professors and administrators. SDS representatives along with a toy machine gun and black banner symbolizing ‘'anarchy" were also present. "If Sigma Chi can have their banner, then we can have ours,” one member said. “This was one of the few times we’ve had a turnout that included such a wide spector of opinion,” said Dr. Shepherd Faber, Forum director of the evening’s activities. The panel Included Stanford, Dr. William Butler, vice president for student affairs; Dr. Armin Gropp, vice president for Academic affairs; George Pickar, Chairman of the Faculty Senate; William McLaughlin, UM business manager; Eugene Cohen, vice president for Financial Affairs, Dr. Joel Mann, Dean for University Research; and Dr. Frank Moya, acting Dean for the School of Medicine. The panel fielded questions including: Curfews: Butler said he approved of the elimination of curfews for upperdass girls, but said “No changes will be made until September . . . because this has already been decided.” Student participation in tenure and curriculum: Faculty Senate Chairman Pickar said “We have not received any requests in regard to granting tenure.” "Should such a request he made, the Faculty Senate has already gone on record as being sympathetic to student participation where it is relevant and where consequences and degree of participation are proportionate,” he said. Lack of Campus Security: "Admittedly security needs strengthening," Stanford said. “I am presently taking steps to appoint a new director of security who should be operating by the beginning of the summer session.” Stanford said he is “reluctant to put money so desperately needed for academic affairs into security.” Grade reports to draft board*: It was revealed that UM Is required to send only the year of study (Arts-Science, etc.) to draft boards, but voluntarily supplies class standings and grade reports. The UM registrar, speaking from the audience, said. “All ymg. have to do Is not give the University your selective service number and no such reports are filed.” The panel discussed other topics, including: South Campus: It was learned that south campus does not belong to UM, but is leased for “overflows of research." Any other restricted work “has nothing to do with the University.” UM has no representation on the Coral Gables City Commission: Problems in the Business School are “old stuff” ac-cording to Dean Shipley. He says that it is mainly a question of making the school a division of the Undergrad or the Graduate School. “We are making progress," he said, “But it does not occur overnight." President Stanford believes the main body of the Black Bob Dorian Charges Dropped On Curry Merlin Curry, a 21-year-old UM freshman, was cleared Tuesday of forcible rape charges when the Dade County Grand Jury refused to return an indictment against him. Curry was released from custody last Thursday on bond, after spending nearly two months in jail on charges that he had raped an 18-year-old UM coed in his on-campus apartment. The girl, who has since withdrawn from the University, furnished the Grand Jury with an affidavit stating that she no longer wished to press charges. Curry — whose arrest became a cause celebre among the United Black Students and Miami’s black community — now faces possible disciplinary action against him, by the University. Studies Program should be initiated into regular University courses rather than segregating the subjects. The University’s financial condition “has never been stronger or better,” according to UM Treasurer Cohen. “In spite of our size, we are one of the smallest endowed universities in the state, but we get the most mileage for each dollar.” UM has no plans to split the College of Arts and Sciences into more specified schools. Raising next year’s student activity fee $10 might or might not help to instigate the building of a fieldhouse. While the money taken in would only form a small part of the necessary funds, Stanford told students that he “has been reluctant to cam- Continued on Page 6 Bob Dorian, sophomore class representative, announced his candidacy for USG president last week, selecting USG Supreme Court Justice Dave Halberg as a running mate. Dorian said he will announce his choice for treasurer at a later date. A freshman-class representative last year, Dorian is credited with sponsoring legislation including USG constitutional amendments such as increased class representation, abolition of reserved seating at lectures and concerts, and USG support for the University Forum. He is currently serving on the Student Activity Fee Allocation Committee, charged with dispensing some $400,000 in activity fee funds annually. Halberg is a member on a committee reviewing discipli-n a r y procedures, student organizations, and Arts and Science curriculum review. He has also served as acting chairman of the ad-hoc committee on the Board of Review. The pair plan a platform based on a desire to create more responsive student government plus a community relations program. “It is our desire to see that student involvement in the academic area, which was started this year, will be continued on a broader basis,” Dorian and Halberg said. The candidates said a more comprehensive and detailed platform will be released at a later date. Students Busted, Jailed By CRAIG PETERSON Of th« Hurrlcan« Staff Five UM students are being held in the Dade County jail after being arrested early this week on charges of illegal possession and illegal sale of drugs. Walton E. Wilson, 18, was charged with 12 counts of the sale and possession of illegal drugs, including heroin, cocaine and LSD. He is being held in lieu of $28,550 bond. Peter J. Soydel, 19, was charged with 10 counts of the sale and possession o f hashish, marijuana, and LSD. His bond was set at $26,000. Three other students, all residenets of 960, and charged with conspiracy to sell narcotics were Samuel Selvin, Thomas Davit and Gene Zachry. The five were caught in a police sweep that also netted two non-students. Metro and Coral Gables police surveillance units tracked the suspects until they left the campus, then closed in. Two arrestó were made in a restaurant on U.S. 1, the others were made while the suspects were en route to an alleged drug sale. The arrests were made over a twelve-hour period from 6 p.m. to early morning. Two of the students had been watched by police since Thanksgiving, and had reportedly sold drugs to plainclothes police on several occasions. Sgt. Allen Richards, officer in charge of the investigation and raid, said his officers have been buying drugs near UM residence halls and on the student union patio since last Fall. “I was awestruck at the promiscuous use of these drugs on the campus,” Richards said. "We had stories that these kids were having pot parties in their rooms and that the R. A.’s wouldn’t do anything as long as they kept quiet." Richards said two of the students were acting as pushers, working out of campus apartments. He said there is “more than a casual relation” between those arrested, and hinted that they were part of a narcotics ring. “There will probably be more arrests in the near future,” he said.
