UROC Calls for Heyns Ouster Amid Berkeley Crisis
The United Republicans of California urged Chancellor Roger W. Heyns to resign over campus unrest linked to Berkeley police clashes. The group praised Sheriff Frank Madigan and sought broader action including a possible statewide initiative to restructure the UC Board of Regents, while dismissing a pot of proposed constitutional action as legally doubtful. The move also pressed investigations into defense procedures and State Department security cases, and urged Nixon to review related issues.
