I heard it....in the TV room. There was a story on the news and several of us were discussing it - he chimed in something about the baby having a right to live.

He always showed up to watch the news - I think he wanted to go out with another student. I asked my roommate who he was and she said, "Oh, that's Clarence. He's in the law school and very conservative."

Roe v Wade was decided in January 1973. Thomas graduated Yale in 1974. That had to be a big topic of conversation.
