Dr. Arthur M. Swanson, a dentist, and his wife, Juanita, said their son, Richard, 21, was forced to consume “a revolting substance hazardous and difficult to swallow.”

The damages were asked of Kappa Sigma fraternity; the Delta Eta chapter of the fraternity; Daniel S. Hayes, president of the chapter; Fred N. Howser Jr., graduate adviser of the fraternity; Gene Royer, alumni adviser to the organization: Gary Fberhard, President of the Interfraternity Council at SC; the city; and members of Ihe fraternity.
The complaint charged members of the fraternity failed and refused for a long period of time, to give common medical aid.
It also said that, after calling police, they concealed and failed to adivse authorities of the liver in their son's throat.
A Los Angeles coroner’s jury decided September 29, 1959 that Kappa Sigma fraternity members were not criminally responsible for pledge Richard Swanson's death.
Hayes testified at that time that fraternity members Lee Lawrence and Roger Jensen gave Swanson artifical respiration after he had gagged on the raw liver and that they succeeded in reviving him temporarily.

Installation Meet
More than 150 students, faculty and administrators are expected to attend the installation-j meeting, slated to begin at 7 1 in the Senate Chambers. 418 SU.
Heated verbal clashes are ex-j pected to fill the crowded chambers over a number of bills j being brought up for action to-i night.
Business senator Hugh Helm’s j bill calling for the establishment | of a Student Organization's Code ! will probably draw the most j controversy.
Designed to prevent such situations as the Knight test-burn-ing controversy from recurring, the bill calls for all student organizations which use written tests as “a sole or partial basis” j I for membership selection to designate one person to handle test-1 ing procedures. •
Score» Test
He must write, administer and ! score the test “subject to the approval of the ASSC Executive ' Cabinet through the Department ! of Student Organizations."
If passed, the statute will affect eight student service organizations. the Trojan Knights, Amazons. Spurs. Squires. Chimes, Phra teres, Troeds and Alpha Phi Omega.
The code will not apply to fraternities and sororities.
Purpose of the new code is to "guarantee the equal rights and treatment of all members of the ASSC in student activities."
A bill to establish a ballot ••ommittee will be presented by communications senator Mike Robinson.
The committee will be responsible for determining the "collective will” of the student body prior to ASSC Senate meetings.
The bill calls for the committee to tabulate student opinion and suggestions for pending Senate resolutions and statues prior to Senate meetings.
li is designed to prevent “student distrust” from weakening the student legislature.
Social studies senator Susan Hartford will introduce a bill which would keep all senators off administrative committees.
Prevents Clique
Aimed at preventing a senatorial “clique" from controlling student government, the bill further provides that no administrative committee chairmen nor department directors be allowed to serve on any other ASSC administrative committee.
A bill to establish a master calendar for ASSC activities will he presented by Boh Kendall, social studies senator.
Bobbie Jo Fur bass, social studies senator, will introduce a bill attempting to define the legislative. administrative and executive branches of the ASSC government.

Robots Won t Wrest Jobs, Faculty Told
SC professors breathed a sich of relief yesterday.
They were told by Dr. James j D. Finn, head of the SC audiovisual department and special ■consultant on automated instruc-! tion to the California State ! Board of Education, that they I w ill not be “replaced by machines.”
Speaking before the SC* Faculty Club Dr. Finn e?#plained I that teachers need not worry about being usurped by an elec-1 tronic automation.
•loh Worry
‘‘I dont’ think that any professor now, or in the future, has ! Io worry about his job.” de-j clared Dr. Finn.
He accused Time magazine of misquoting him in a March It article, in which he was credited with saying that the machine would replace the teacher.
In clarifying his position. Dr. Finn pointed out that new technological innovations would be helping the "lot of the teacher” and raise instructural quality.
Educational
New developments in teaching "machines" and in educational TV have led to two trends which seem to be merging, he said.
There is a trend to mass instruction technology for leaching and a trend simultaneously to progressive individual instruc-tional techniques, Dr. Finn noted.
And this will help the teacher. in terms of both time and instruction, he said.
Machines will be the professors tools, not his replacement, j Dr. Finn said.
New Machines
j For certain kinds of instruction. as in mathematics courses, new teaching machines which | project problems on screens, j saving professors up to 30 or 40 I minutes time, are “inevitable” the audio visual expert predicted. "This is the trend of the fu-! ture.” he said.
Dr. Finn, who is also head of the SC cinema department, said j that television is effective as a j teacher of factual material in , mass education courses.
Good Job “All our research indicates that television does as well as i conventional instruction but in the very process of doing as well, there is no particular evidence that it is going to replace any body,” Finn said.
To support his claims. Dr. Finn brought with him a number of educational machines for demonstration purposes.
SC faculty members left agreeing with Dr. Finn: they are expecting their new teaching assistants to l>e robot-like, but they don't expect, to turn into robots.
