University Police Chief Robert Tonis urges all Summer School students to protect themselves against theft and fines. The number of bicycle thefts has increased recently, and the University police recommend metal link chains--rather than those flimsy plastic-coated cables--to foil would-be bicycle-nappers...
...conferees, in short, sought to protect even the most glaring inequalities for the next five years. Inadvertently, however, they left out the clause forbidding statewide elections at large in 1968 and 1970. Since the courts have already ruled unconstitutional the districts in many states and since the "compromise" bill would in most cases prevent the creation of new districts until after 1970, the only remaining possibility would be at large elections--something which any constituency-cartering representative would despite.

On obscenity, the court continued to find most works protected by the First Amendment. But it did suggest that distasteful purveying of borderline works or selling to minors may well be legitimate criminal offenses if legislation is drawn with proper narrowness. On individual rights, the court found that a U.S. citizen cannot be deprived of his citizenship for voting in another country's election...
