The American Civil Liberties Union filed in Los Angeles Superior Court seeking to overturn a 1968 chancellor ban on Bill Spater's ten lifesize nude sculptures at California State College at Long Beach. The suit, supported by CSLB professors Kenneth Appelgate and Stephen Werlick and student Paul Versailles, seeks legal relief and may proceed for months with hearings possibly in a Long Beach court.
