...Reagan's newly appointed Regent Allan Grant first suggested the firing, which was formally moved by Laurence J. Kennedy Jr., a lawyer and one of the ten regents appointed by former Governor Pat Brown. When the vote was taken, anti-Kerr ballots included those of Reagan, Oilman Edwin Pauley, Mrs. Norman Chandler and Retailer Edward Carter, who had been chairman during the time of the riots. Among those supporting Kerr were Assembly Speaker Jesse Unruh and Industrialist Norton Simon...
Next day the university regents, summoned to a meeting near Oakland airport, heard Heyns cite the faculty vote as an indication of growing "solidarity on the campus." Regent Edwin W. Pauley, a Los Angeles oil millionaire, demanded the firing of all faculty members who took part in the strike-chiefly teaching assistants. But he drew only three votes.

They also voted to "regret the necessity" for the use of police but to "reject the view that a campus should...

Kerr feared that adding a university punishment would be taken as breaking an understanding with the thousands of students who had crusaded against such "double jeopardy." He foresaw a renewal...
...largest contract, for 80% of the field, went to a syndicate made up of Humble, Shell, Mobil, Texaco and Union Oil, which will pay a 95.56% royalty. Pauley Petroleum got 10% with a bid of 98.277%, and Richfield and Standard of California together scooped off the remaining 10%, including one sector on which they will turn back an unprecedented 100%. The oil companies, which normally pay royalties that range around 50% on the crude that they pump from the ground, will make the money to offset the high royalty payments through profits on the sale of refined products. They will...
