MEMORANDUM AND ORDER DIRECTING THAT PLAINTIFFS BE GRANTED A NEW HEARINg
ELMO B. HUNTER, District Judge.
This matter comes before the Court on plaintiffs' demands for injunctive relief and such other relief as the Court may deem proper. A hearing was held on September 6, 1967, and the Court received the revisions to plaintiffs' supplemental reply brief September 29, 1967. At the hearing held herein the Court dismissed plaintiff Len Wesley Powell from this suit without prejudice, leaving Alfredo Esteban and Steve Roberds as the only two active plaintiffs in the case.
In the spring of 1967 at the time he was suspended from Central Missouri State College plaintiff Roberds was on disciplinary probation. At the time plaintiff Esteban was suspended in the spring of 1967 he was on scholastic probation and prior to that time had been on disciplinary probation. Each of the suspensions followed two nights of student demonstrations variously described at the hearing as 'disturbances,' 'incidents,' and 'riots.'
The record demonstrates that each of the plaintiffs was orally advised of the reason the College was considering disciplinary action against him and was given an opportunity to make such explanation to the Dean of Men, Dr. Chalquist, as he desired to. Each was further advised that he was entitled to appeal to the President of the College, Dr. Lovinger, in the event disciplinary action was recommended. Each of the plaintiffs discussed his version of the circumstances with Dr. Chalquist. At the hearing in this matter plaintiff Roberds advised the Court that he had been in attendance at the demonstrations on both evenings, for approximately 30 minutes the first evening and one hour the second evening contending however, that he was merely a spectator on each occasion. Plaintiff Esteban stated to the Court that he called the resient assistant (vulgar names, here deleted) after he had given Esteban's name to Dr. Meverden.
On the basis of the voluntary statements made by the...
