"When I'm working undercover I tell stories," was said by

"FUZZY" HAS "CONVENIENT MEMORY"
David Dows, who used the street name of " F u z z y " , started
working as an undercover agent on the Lock Haven State
College campus near "the end ot September-beginning of
October."
Mr. Dows testified vividly of instances where he made
buys fiom some of the defendents. Hov/ever, time after time
when Mr. Ambrose Campana asked questions which might have
given the defendents favorable answers, Mr. Dows didn't
" r e c a l l " and couldn't "remember". After receiving several
forgetful answers, Mr. Campana out on record; "Mr. Dows, you
have a convenient raemoiy."

ment for the Humanities, and
the Department of Health,
Education, and Welfare.
Dr. Hamblin explains the
purpose of the Committee in
these words: "After World
War II, there was a great deal
of interest in international
education, which declined
during the middle and late
1960's. Because of recent
government efforts in the
area of foreign relations,
there is a new and growing
interest
in
inteirtational
education. The Interface
Committee will, we hope,
give a sense of direction to
this new interest by coordinating the efforts cf both
the government ana the
academic community."
Task forces under the
supervision of the Interface
Committee will seek to
promote collaboration between
scholars of different countries, as well as increase
knowledge of opportunities
in international education.
The forces will also work
to encourage further study
by academic ar>d government
experts in foreign fields, and
to improve foreign language
instruction.
Dt. Hamblin has been
act! ve in internatiorml education for many years. He
has served as chairman of
the Interna tionn I Relations
Committee of the American
Association of Colleges for
Teacher Education. Cunently
he is an active member of the
Committee on International

He is also on the board

joint." Al this answer Morgan and Oberdorf looked coropletely
astonished.
The foHowinR excerots are from the hearing involving the
conspiracy charge against Miss Davis atid M-. Brophy;
page 2
M^. Campana: "Prior to October iS you had solicited Mr.
Brophy, and requested him to sell you drugs."
A. Campana: "Your written report contains no reference to this
ride."
Mr. Dows: " I made it known to him."
Mr. Dows: " Y e s . "
Mr. Campana; "You let Mr. Brophy know that you wanted to buy
drugs."
Mr. Dows: "I let a number of individuals know that I wanted tc
buy drugs."
After testimony was given by Mr. Dows concerning the
conspiracy charge. Miss Davis' counselor moved that the
charges be dropped. Brophy's counselor, Ambrose Campana,
agreed the charges be dropped because there is "absolutely no
proof" of conspiracy.
At this point Mr. Williamson, the district attorney interjected, " I think that certainly there is prima face evidence
t h e r e . " Magistrate Carl Hamberger closed the hearing when he
said Miss Davis and Mr. Brophy "will be held on the charge of
conspiracy violation."
One of Mr. Dows stcries while working undercover on the
Lock Haven campus was that he was trying to buy as much
marijuana as possible in ader to distill it to hash oil. He told
several of the defendents, "1 knew how to do i t , " and if he
could get enough of it he would. Mr. Dows testified he might
sell it at Penn State or on the Lock Haven cam,pus.
A. Campana; "The request to buy marijuana came from you, did
it not?"
Mr. Dows: "I did not request."
A. Campana: "You mentioned drugs before anybody else did?"
Mr. Dows: "I mentioned it first."
DOWS "IDENTIFIES" OBERDORF
The next case to be heard was the Commonwealth vs.
David Oberdorf. After being sworn in and identifying himself,
Vt. Uows was asked,if Nt. Uberdorf was present: "Mr. Oberdorf
is the man witli his head down, witii the black hair who is
trying to hide." At this remark Ambrose Campana jumped from
lis seat and objected. His objection was sustained, and he
:ontinued, " I object to M-. Williamson (D.A.) moving him (Dave
Oberdorf) like a monkey on a string."
During this hearing Mr. Dows testified that he used a 1969
slue Ford while working imdercover on the Lock Haven campus. Nt. Dows said he commuted from Penn State and "I had a
state car,"
MI. Campana asked "Who was the first person you introduced yourself to on campus?" Dows said it was Shade and
Roberts. The questioning continued:
\. Campana; "Did you tell them what you did for a living?"
"HAPPENS ALL THE TIME"
After Ml. Dows finished his story of how he came to Lock
Haven and starting buying drugs from the thirteen def-indents,
saying he was, "Easy to get to know," Mr. Campana stated;
"Doesn't this story seem a little far-fetched?"
Mr. Dows: "Happens all the time in my undercover operations."
A. Campana: "You mean when you deceive."
Mr. Dows: "When I'm working undercover."
The next line of questioning concerned an occasion when
Mr. Dows allegedly sup liied a minor, defendent, with an
alcoholic beverage:
Vlr. Dows; "I told them some stories."
A. Campana; "You did tell them some stories that were not
true."
A. Campana: "Did you ever buy beer for Mr. Oberdorf?"
Mr. Dows. " N o . "
vlr. Dows: " Y e s . "
A. Campana; "Did you ever give him any beer?"
\. Campana; "You told them lies in order to gain their
confidence."
v*. Dows; " Y e s . "
At this point M-. Campana brought up an incident that Mr.
)ows iiad not included in his official report. Mr. Dov/s had
/isitcd Oberdwf and several of the defendents one day hoping
to buy a quantity of marijuana. The four men then took a ride
n Dows' car.
DOWS "FAKED" SMOKING JOINT
Vi-. Dows: " I drove them for a trip, and during that trip they
siBOked." (Mr. Dows said they passed a joint around.)
M. Williamson:
"We're not talking about Mr. Oberdorf's
propensity to drink beer- we're talking about his propensity to
sell marijuana."
This hearing closed vhen Magistrate Carl Hamberger said:
"I find that a prima face case has been found here."
In the Commonwealth vs. William Morgan;
Mr. Dows answered yes and said he used several cover-up
stories. One of them included his going on welfare part way
into * e semester because he stopped receiving money under the
O.I. Bill since he was no longer a student at Lock Haven.
