Saturday: 9 a.m. - 5 p.m. Mauzy says change ‘lily-white image CUSSES 401 DUNN STREET BRYAN TEXAS — 846 - 4736 WORLD CAMPUS AFLOAT A AUSTIN (AP) — Sen. Oscar Mauzy told three University of Texas regent appointees Tuesday that they have got to help the state’s largest school “overcome its lily- white image.” “I have a keen interest in righting the wrongs that have gone on for generations,” said one of the ap pointees, Fort Worth lawyer Thomas Law. It was noted that Law once ran against John Connally for UT stu dent body president but lost. Gov. Dolph Briscoe appointed Law and Houston businessman Walter Sterling to the board of re gents and reappointed Dan Wil liams of Dallas, all for six-year terms. After grilling the trio for one hour and 20 minutes Tuesday, Mauzy, D-Dallas, the chairman of the Se nate Education Committee, asked them to come back for more ques tions Wednesday morning. This should give students a chance to seek the appointees’ views on higher education. Al though several registered to testify Tuesday, a committee hearing had to be cut short because the Senate was going into session. Sen. Lloyd Doggett, D-Austin, a first-term legislator who received substantial student support in his 1973 race, asked the three appoin tees’ reaction to a faculty resolution expressing “no confidence” in uni versity Chancellor Charles LeMaistre after he fired Dr. Stephen Spurr as president. “It’s another fact to be consi dered, but I might not agree with it,” said Sterling. Earlier, however, when asked if he would have “any qualms” about discharging LeMaistre if he abused his author ity, Sterling replied, “Not a bit.” In response to Doggett’s ques tion, Williams said that only 300 to 400 of 1,600 faculty members had voted on the LeMaistre resolution, and he added, “I have a great deal of confidence in our chancellor.” Law said, “I do have confidence in Chancellor LeMaistre.” Much of the questioning focused on how the appointees felt about recruiting minority students. Sterling said it would be “terribly hard” for the school president, Dr. Lorene Rogers, “to carry out” re cent federal requirements, but “we ll help her as we can.” He cautioned, however, that “we should maintain the university’s academic students. I’d hate to see us lower the standards to accommo date minority groups.” “To my knowledge,” said Wil liams, “no one who’s qualified has been turned down.” “I don’t think we can emphasize it (minority recruiting) too much,” said Law. The university “has got to work harder at it than some other schools have,” said Mauzy. “I think we ll be proud about what’s been done the past three years,” said Williams. Mauzy asked Sterling if he had been a member of the Houston Committee for Sound American Education in the 1950s, a commit tee Mauzy said purportedly sought to maintain segregated schools. Sterling said the committee was formed to elect a certain slate of school trustees and “had nothing to do” with the U.S. Supreme Court which outlawed segregation in pub lic schools.

WCA, Chapman College Box F, Orange, CA 92666 LONDON (AP) — Queen Victoria’s family and government leaders of the day hushed up Buck ingham Palace’s reported connec tion to a sex scandal that shocked Britain 75 years ago, according to official documents opened this week for the first time. The scandal centered on a male homosexual brothel in London’s Cleveland Street allegedly fre quented by Lord Arthur Somerset, equerry to the Prince of Wales, and other prominent men. THE HOUSTON A&M CLUB INVITES YOU TO OUR WEEKLY MEETING AT 12 NOON ON MONDAY MARCH 17 - RICE HOTEL LUNCH WILL BE AVAILABLE tee platform to resist integration, Mauzy asked. “Not that I know of,” replied Sterling. Sen. JackOgg, D-Houston, asked Sterling his age and about his physi cal condition, apparently because a student leader had told of another regent confirming that Sterling fell asleep and snored in a recent meet ing last month. His age “may be a problem,” said student vice presi dent Bill Parrish. “I’ll be 74 in May, but I don’t think age has anything to do with it,” said Sterling. “The experience I’ve had in 74 years can be turned to value for the University of Texas system.” “I see my internist every 60 to 90 days and he checks me over and says I’m in good health, " said Sterling. Ogg asked if he had contribute! to Briscoe’s three campaignsfe governor, and Sterling said helul He said the Briscoe and Sterliij families had known each other» 1925. BATTALION CLASSIFIED Details of the affair came to light when the director of public prosecu tions opened relevant documents to public inspection. Until recently, the department kept the wraps on official documents for 100 years. The papers confirm rumors rife at the time that such leaders as the Prince of Wales and the prime minister, Lord Salisbury, pre vented authorities from prosecuting Lord Somerset. The Prince of Wales, the eldest son of Queen Vic toria, became King Edward VII. The documents also revealed that officials at the time wrote that Lord Somerset’s attorney boasted that if the peer was taken to court “a very distinguished person will be in volved — PAV.” That referred to Prince Albert Victor, the black sheep among Queen Victoria’s children. The prince’s name had earlier been mentioned in the “Jack the Ripper” murders that terrorized London. The documents do not mention Prince Albert further. They show the attorney general, the public prosecutor and the police commis sioner wanted to prosecute Lord Somerset, who is referred to in the documents as “Mr. Brown,” under stringent laws forbidding acts of “gross indecency” between male homosexuals. However, the then home secret ary, Lord Halsbury, plus Lord Salisbury and other leaders were against this, partly because of Lord Somerset’s position in society and partly because they feared other prominent Britons would be impli cated. The papers also include evidence that distinguished clients of the brothel tried to bribe the male pros titutes of Cleveland Street to go ab road before they could be called as witnesses.
