BY the Associated Press

BALTIMORE. Feb. 20.--Hy-
man FRESHMAN yesterday re-
newed his demands for assur-
ance that use of the University

poses.
Mr.. FRESHMAN, Baltimore at
torney whose hobby is filing suits
as a taxpayer. called upon DR..
H. C. Byrd to answer three ques-
tionS under oath:
/. AS president of the univer-
sity, has he complied with a reso-
luton denying the institutions
mailing to persons seeking to use
them for non-university busi-
ness?
2. If so, what action has Mr..
Byrd taken to comply? NV
3. What written or printed di-
receives did Mr.. Byrd issue in
connection with his compliance?
Mr.. PresSman'S new action was
taken under court procedure
which allows a party to a case
to check up on developments
which might affect his COM
plant.
The original action, still pend
ing in Baltimore Circuit Court

charges that DR.. Mcdonald

ney. P. Brice Horton.

This is seen in the many
