Radicals Plan to Disrupt Teach-in; Faculty Renews Free Speech Call

As radical students planned actions against the conservative "Counter-Teach-In," the Faculty Council reaffirmed yesterday its belief in unrestricted free speech within the University.

(The complete text of the Faculty Council resolution is reprinted on page 8.)

Three radical groups, the Liberation Alliance, the University Action Group (UAG), and SDS, have decided to disrupt the Friday night teach-in, at which the ambassadors from South Vietnam and Thailand will speak.

Faculty Council Condemns

The Faculty Council, in a-closed meeting, unanimously passed a resolution condemning "deliberate interference with the freedom of speech of any member or guest of the University." According to Dean May, this resolution was made in response to rumors concerning the teach-in protests.

UAG, an organization of graduate students, faculty, and staff, plans to clap loudly throughout the speeches. SDS, in a meeting last night, endorsed this plan.

The Liberation Alliance- an informal anti-war coalition of former members of the defunct November Action Group SDS, and several other activist groups- does not have a definite plan.

A Liberation Alliance member said that the group sees the basic point of any action as a protest against the war, rather than a protest against the right to have a teach-in favoring the war. She added, "We see this as a kick-off for spring anti-war actions."
