- Page 1: The title sheet depicts an image of various people donning Ku Klux Klan outfits before a hill with a burning cross. A sign on the hill reads “Tonight: Human Rights Comm. Conviens [sic] and Gill Coliseum is behind the hill. The figure passing out the outfits is likely OSU President Jensen. A black man appears to be tied up on the hill. The artwork is explained (and apologized for) on Page 3. Page 3: “Scab Sheet Editor Speaks…” The cover artwork is explained by the Scab Sheet Editor. It is explained as depicting members of the Commission on Human Rights and Responsibilities. The Editor apologizes for the cover, indicating that it was made from personal feelings expressed 14 hours earlier, but that said personal feelings had since changed. The Editor denounces the cover artwork as “reprehensible and of no redeeming worth.” Page 5: “Phase Two: HRM…” The Human Rights Movement, as proclaimed by the author, officially disassociates itself with self-governing student groups, citing fallacy in a group dominated by majority rule, in an issue regarding minorities. The movement labels the ASOSU Senate as worthless, and identifies itself as a second, alternative student government. [no headline] An excerpt from an AP story from Kansas on March 9, 1969 speculates that the events at OSU may trigger additional movements among other college athletic programs. Page 6 “Oregonian Sucks…” The Oregonian is attacked for an editorial run on March 7 which criticizes the events at OSU, and, according to the Scab Sheet, simplifies the issue. “Barometer Exists!” The Barometer is criticized for not acknowledging the Scab Sheet. In satire, the Scab Sheet acknowledges that the Barometer does, in-fact, exist. Differences between the two papers, particularly the Scab Sheet’s cost and view points, are expressed. “NSA Offers Aid…” An endorsement from the National Student Association for ASOSU President John Frazer due to his efforts with human rights is applauded. Page 7 “ Arkansas Blacks Leave…” A recap is given of a walkout of 21 of the College of the Ozark’s 35 black students. The students walked out because of racial tension, including disputes with the school’s basketball coach over a player’s “Afro hair style.” “Fraser Steps Down…” Continued from Page 2. [Note: Page 2 is blank] ASOSU President John Fraser announces his resignation, effective March 23, 1969, while encouraging students to unit with concerned faculty members who support the human rights movement. “Oregon Senate Raps…” In a statement from the Associated Students of the University of Oregon, the ASUO Senate publishes resolutions to censure OSU coach Dee Andros, give support to students supporting Fred Milton, and its refusal to condone any athletic contests between U of O and OSU until the resolution of the prevalent racial conditions. Page 8 “OSU Jock Raps, Andros Sucks…” A white member of the football team, in an open letter to Coach Dee Andros, anonymously applauds his intentions, while simultaneously criticizing his methods. The coach is complimented for his attempts at team unity, but is accused of unintentional racism. “Student Power Ignored…” President Jensen’s authority is questioned regarding his appointment of three students to the Commission on Human Rights and Responsibilities. The author claims that the appointments were illegitimate as the authority rested only with the student government.

- Page 1: The title sheet depicts a caricature of presumably President Jensen holding the giant head of Coach Dee Andros in a satire of the Farnese Atlas statue. Page 2: “Faculty Senate” An account is given of the deliberation of the Faculty Senate during a meeting the previous afternoon. During the meeting, Fred Cervantes’ proposal was rejected in favor of the “Administrative Proposal.” Continued on Page 6. Page 3: “What Place Athletics?’ A review of the Athletic Department is announced, as ordered by the Faculty Senate during its meeting the previous afternoon. The Senate cited concerns about the department’s relationship to the university after Coach Dee Andros expressed the intent to ignore any university ruling not supported by the majority of his players. “Barometer to sue Scab Sheet” The Barometer editor’s announcement of a lawsuit against the Scab Sheet is responded to with the quote that “truth is the best defense against libel.” “Broken-hearted Melody…” A reply is given to a Barometer article written in response to an earlier Scab Sheet article (Vol. I, Issue I, Page 1) criticizing the lack of contact with the Black Student Union over an all-school convocation. In the reply, the Scab Sheet reaffirms its original printed view. Continued on Page 4. Page 4: “Broken-hearted Melody continued…” Defense of the Scab Sheet article attacked in a later Barometer article continues. “Administrative Proposal… Revised” A slightly revised version of the Administrative Proposal is given in a statement by the Faculty Senate, as passed during its session the previous afternoon. “Fraser Raps…” Mr. Fraser defends his voting record, claiming that he did not realize that a vote to Coach Dee Andros was also a vote to “give him the powers of a dictator.” He goes on the record as stating that he would like to change his vote. “Who Rules OSU?” The Athletic Department is criticized for contradicting the intent of the President’s Commission on Human Rights, specifically due to the Athletic Board’s reaffirmation of the power granted to the coaching staff. Page 5: “Boycott Must Continue” The Faculty Senate is praised for taking action, but is also criticized due to an apparent contradiction between the two proposals presented. President Jensen’s proposal is criticized in further detail, and using such evidence as justification, the boycott is encouraged to continue. Page 6: [no title] A description of events from the Faculty Senate is given. [Note: This article appears to be a continuation of another article.] “Helms Raps…” With information from Karl Helms, Jensen’s assistant on minority student affairs, it is revealed that black athletes in the Pacific 8 Conference will continue to boycott OSU. “Boycott goes on...” It is announced that the boycott will continue, citing a statement by the Students for Action Committee. A pre-game rally is announced for Friday night at 6:30 in the MU Ballroom. [no title] A small blurb announces that sources indicate the impending resignation of Dee Andros, with further details expected later.
