Atheist says Iran situation
shows stupidity of religion
United Press International
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. —
Timothy Gilmore, the director of a
newly formed chapter of American
Atheists, said Wednesday the hos
tage situation in Iran demonstrates
the “stupidity and injustices of reli-
gion.”
“We have no argument with those
who believe in a religion and who
practice it,” Gilmore said, “just as
'long as they don t infringe on other
people’s rights and use other peo
ple’s tax money for their purposes.
“The present situation in Iran is a
perfect example of a state being con
trolled by a church, and it points out
the stupidity and injustices of reli
gion. ”
Gilmore said the New Mexico
chapter formed following the visit of
noted atheist Madalyn Murray
O’Hair last month. He said the re
ception given O’Hair generated sup
port for the group. O’Hair was hit in
the face with a pie by a man who said
he was opposed to atheism.
“Not only atheists, but agnostics,
free-thinkers and civil libertarians in
general were ashamed of the be
havior of a few New Mexicans when
O’Hair spoke here,” Gilmore said.
High court rules
search law illegal
United Press International
WASHINGTON — The Supreme
Court Wednesday ruled 6-3 that
when police obtain a warrant to
search a public place, such as a
tavern, they do not necessarily have
a right to frisk patrons who happen to
be there.
The justices reversed a state court
ruling that upheld the constitution
ality of an Illinois law permitting
police executing a search warrant to
detain and search any person on the
premises.
“A person’s mere propinquity to
others independently suspected of
criminal activity does not, without
more, give rise to probable cause to
search that person,” Justice Potter
Stewart wrote for the majority.
The case arose in March 1976

when agents of the Illinois Bureau of
Investigation and Aurora, Ill., police
obtained a warrant permitting them
to search the Aurora Tap Tavern and
its bartender for evidence of illegal
controlled substances.
During the search, police officers
proceeded to pat down about a
dozen customers, including Ventura
Ybara. Police found six tinfoil pack
ets of heroin in his pocket.
Ybara unsuccessfully challenged
the Illinois statute and was convicted
of heroin possession and sentenced
to two years’ probation.
The high court Wednesday found
that his search was in violation of the
Constitution’s 4th and 14th Amend
ments.
“Each patron who walked into the
Aurora Tap Tavern on March 1,
1976, was clothed with constitution
al protection against an unreason
able search or an unreasonable sei-
