Heatherly said the prisoner csn't j cirord an appeal ta Federal Courts j which might reverse the decision j of the trial court on the basis of "inflammatory" evidence present ed by the prcsecution.

Davis was treated for minor in juries at Memorial Hospital. Pen dergraft was released on $200 bond and is scheduled to appear in Recorder's Court today. Trial is also scheduled today for 28 demonstrators involved in 55 cases.

The trials are ex pected to come up at the criminal term of Orange County Superior Court beginning the third week in February.

"The student Attorney General will investigate each situation and will dispose of these cases as pre scribed by legislative statute," he said. "It is his 'the Attorney Gen eral's) responsibility to decide whether there is sufficient cause for a hearing." Buzzy Stubbs, student Attorney General, said investigations are being conducted, and indicated that results would be announced "later this week." Lawler said that state papers have used phrases such as "pos sible penalties as high as ex pulsion" in connection with the original statement. The Honor Councils do not have the power of expulsion. "These cases will be handled through the normal judicial mach inery for investigating an "off campus" action which may be a volation of the student Campus Code," Lawler said. "This code of conduct has long been applied to both on campus and off-campus student actions." The original statement said that the Attorney General would hand le the individual cases after their final disposition by the North Car olina Courts. Stubbs said this would "probably" mean that stu dents with appeals pending would not be considered by the student judiciary. Dean of Student Affairs C. O. Cathey agreed with Lawler's statement, saying "the students will handle the cases as thev see fit." "I think they will do a good job," he concluded. The current investigations by the Attorney General's staff will decide whether the cases merit a trial by the appropriate councils. If so, the Men's and Women's Councils will assume their normal responsibilities in trying the stu dents. The original statement, wide ly misinterpreted in state papers, came from a meeting of student leaders and administration. Law ler said there was general accord on the statement between the two groups. The statement said that cases would go to the student judiciary because the University "cannot condone the willful disobedience cf the laws, aside from the merits, demerits, or employment of par ticular laws." i
