ton commlty leaders Dr. June
Hyer William P. Hobby and
Geo. Bush concurred on the right
of students to be active in parti-
san politics of any non-violent

grce most with a policy of let-
ting civil authority punish civil
disobedience unless the infrac-
tion of a law went against stated
principles of the school or unless
the violation or its effects inter-
fered with school work.

by the Honorable John G. Tower
United States Senator from Texas.
