State.St. TICKETS $3 AT THE DOOR NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) - Ugandan President Idi Amin announced yester- day that Palestinian soldiers were fighting alongside Ugandan troops in the battle to drive out Tanzanian in- vaders. Amin, in a Uganda government radio broadcast monitored in Nairobi, also claimed Israeli soldiers and mer- cenaries were fighting on the side of the Tanzanians. There has been no independent con- firmation available of claims made by either side. AMIN PUT THE number of invaders at 40,000, double his previous estimate. Most independent observers believe the figure is far lower, perhaps no more than 8,000 Tanzanians and anti-Amin Ugandan exiles. Amin is believed to have about an equal number of defen- ders around Kampala, the Ugandan capital. The radio reported Amin's speech was made at the opening of a conferen- ce of the 34-nation Islamic Develop- ment Bank in Kampala. "No matter what the sacrifice, the armed forces are determined to crush the aggressors," Amin said. He described the enemy occupying part of southern Uganda as "agents of im- perialism, racism and Zionists." DIPLOMATIC sources estimate the Libyans at 1,400 men and the Palestinians were believed to number in the hundreds. Neutral sources in East Africa with access to top-level intelligence reports said Amin appears increasingly capable of carrying out his boast that he'll win the four-month-old war that started when he invaded and tried to annex part of northwestern Tanzania. The sources said Amin's augmented military strength could make itself felt within a few weeks, although in- telligence reports say that for now, the Taiizanians are advancing slowly on Kampala from the south. By most accounts, they are between 30 and 75 miles from Kampala. "UGANDAN ARMED forces and Jganda Palestinian forces are fighting side by side on the front line and are acquiring good experience in fighting against Israeli soldiers and mercenaries;" Amin told the tankers. "Tanzanian forces alone could not in- vade Uganda without Zionists and mer- cenaries." The Ugandan leader described his enemies as "enemies of Islam and Christianity, who are killing innocent people and even raping Catholic nuns. "We are fighting enemies who illegally occupy Arab and Palestinian land and who practice racial discrimination in southern Africa," he said. NOW speakers discus.

"I was asked to resign, and chose to terminate my employment because I felt I hadn't done anything wrong," Pollack said. She men- tioned a document, which she wrote, on Title IX compliance (from 1972 to last year). Pollack said she felt the document clearly showed Title IX infractions, and also that it may have angered University ad- ministrators. IN RESPONSE to an audience question regarding University Title IX compliance, Pollack said that "a court order is the only way to get specific information on complian- ce." "In the MSU case, the facts only came out in the courtroom," Pollack said. "You'd better hire a lawyer and sue the bastards, the battle lines are drawn." Geise advocated a somewhat dif- ferent approach, stressing the im- portance of "organizing state-by- s Title IX p state through community support for Title IX." GEISE DESCRIBED her work with PEER, including working with the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare (HEW) on investigation of Title IX complaints. "We found that it wasn't a case of not enough staff working on Title IX complaints," Geise said. She noted that one HEW investigator had nine Title IX cases in one year, and suggested that this type of in- vestigation may be responsible for the heavy backlog of uninvestigated HEW complaints. "We work with local school districts trying to improve con- ditions for our children." Geise said. She showed the audience PEER's kit on Title IX, which is called "Crack- roblems ing the Glass Slipper: PEER's Guide to Ending Sex Bias in Your Schools," and suggested that the use of this could "enable one or two people to do an investigation of Title IX compliance in a school." "We want people to know who they should talk to and what kind of questions they should ask to see if Title IX is being enforced in their school," Geise said. She added that "PEER is working as fast as possible, organizing at a local level, doing workshops and talking about how to organize at your school." "We could do more if we had more staff and more energy," Geise said. "The response to our efforts has been positive, and it's encouraging to find people who want to support, the project." KISSES TASTE LIKE?0 If you smoke cigarettes, you taste like one. Your clothes and hair can smell stale and unpleasant, too. You don't notice it, but people close to you do. Especially if they don't smoke. And non-smokers are the best people to love. They live longer. AMERICA THIS SPA. " ( NT'-T TFO BY THE PUBLI SHER AS A PUBLIC SERVICE.

He said, "As a Christian organization we oppose the use of drugs in any form." He also suggested use of most hard drugs started with the use of marijuana. The speaker. expressed the AME's concern that black youths cannot easily find employment since factories now test prospective employes to find out if they use drugs. A lab analyst for the Michigan State Police began his argument by quoting the selling price of an ounce of three kinds of pot: local-grown is sold for $15 to $35; Colombian for $35 to $45; and Hawaiian, for as much as $100. "No4 wonder young people areinterested in selling," he said after stating his belief that the lower penalties would make potential users less reluctant to buy marijuana. A clergyman from a northeast Detroit district consisting largely of blacks and elderly people said the Michigan Legislature should make laws to stop big-time pushers. "It (drug use) is destroying our people," he said, citing that elderly people are often harassed by users trying to finance their habits. The Senate Appropriations Commit- tee, consisting of Senators Brown, John Hertel (D-Harper Woods), John Kelly (D-Detroit), Phil Athurhultz (R- Whitehall), and Donald Bishop (R- Rochester) will vote soon on whether or not to release the bill to the Senate floor.
