State Senators (R. Fulleron) and John G. Schmitz (R. Tustin) called for the firing of Duerr and also criticized the campus president, William B. Langsdorf for granting Duerr tenure. In May 1968 Duerr directed the first United States production in its entirety of the 1958 play by Max Frisch, The Firebugs. (en)
