Yesterday afternoon, 5,000 high
hool and university students
osed the Ambassador Bridge to
etroit for four hours, blocking
e two - mile s p a n with their
dies and fashioning makeshift
arricades out of construction ma-
rials.
In Sarnia, another 3,000 young
eople massed at the Bluewater
r i d g e leading to Port Huron,
'ich., blocking traffic for five- I
ours and burning an effigy of
ixon.
There were pickets and demon-
rators at the U.S. embassy in
ttawa and at American consul-
tes in Vancouver, Winnipeg and
oronto.
Last night, demonstr a torss
ounted a silent vigil at the
indsor - Detroit tunnel. Earlier,
ickets slowed traffic at the tun-
el.
A demonstration was also held
n Anchorage, Alaska.
At the demonstration here, stu-
ents singing "Oh Canada," the
ational a n t h e m, marched to
ithin 50 feet of the U.S. customs
ouses where they were confronted
ith a large contingent of riot-
quipped Detroit police.
Officials of the U.S. Immigration
nd Naturalization Service warned
e demonstrators they would "be
iet with force," if they attempted
o cross the border without going
hrough customs and immigra-
ion inspection.
The protestors then pulled back
o the Canadian side of the bridge,
There they continued to block
affic until the early evening.
Canadian officials made no at-
empt to stop the students from
rossing the bridge, nor did they
ry to collect the customary 10
ent pedestrian toll for using the
ridge.

Saturday, the Atomic Energy Com-
iission announced in Washington
esterday.
The bomb is described by the
AEC as "the most intricate and
complicated configuration ever un-
dertaken in the weapons program
.. different from any other nuc-
ear weapon ever produced."
The weapon, designed as the
warhead of the Spartan antibal-
istic missile system, is supposed
to work by destroying incoming
rocket warheads in a blast of X-
rays.
Critics charge however that the
warhead is being designed and
tested for a weapons system that
will not work.
The Aleutians, where the test is
to take place, are volcanic in na-
ture and are located in what geol-
ogists describe as one of the most
unstable subsurface structures in
the world.
Earthquakes of considerable mag-
nitude are frequent there.

flatly stated "there will be no
cross-district busing in Michigan,"
noting that a Nixon-appointed
Supreme Court would not uphold
it in court.
Roth's ruling that segregated
neighborhood housing patterns
could constitute de jure, rather,
than de facto, segregation is a!
first. Previous court rulings had
treated neighborhood housing pat-
terns as accidental. Federal judges
therefore, were barred from' pro-
scribing legal remedies through
court orders.
However, Roth found that De-
troit's neighborhood housing pat-
terns were not accidental, but a
result of official "actions and in-
actions" by "federal, state, and
local (governments), private or-
ganizations, loaning institutions,
real estate associations, and bro-
kerage firms."
The judge placed key criticism
on the Federal Housing Adminis-
tration and the Veterans Adminis-
tration for policies promoting dis-
criminatory "harmonious neigh-
borhoods" - racially and eco-
nomically homegeneous.
Parents in surban Detroit corn-

caused high absenteeism in Pon-
tiac and some Detroit area com-
munities.
Roth's decision also drew im-
mediate response from the State
Legislature.
Though virtually no leq-islators
countered Roth's finding of illegal
segregation in Detroit's schools,
the Legislature joined the anti-
busing furor. though its actions
will have little effect on the out-
come of''the Detroit case.
Both houses quickly passed mo-
tions urging the state Board of
Education to seek an appeal,
which the board has declined tc
do. The legislature also rushec
through motions seeking a consti-
tutional amendment to outlaw

Many state political figures out-
side the Legislature have remained
uncommitted on the issue of cross-
district busing, noting their re-
servations and also that court or-
ders must be obeyed.
Michigan Congressmen John
Conyers and Charles Diggs, the:
NAACP, the Urban League, and
the Detroit Coordinating Council'
on Human Relations, a coalition
of 69 area agencies, have all an-i
nounced their support of cross-
district, inter-city busing.
Typical of the stance taken'
by state politicians is that of De-
troit's Mayor Roman Gribbs.
Gribbs has announced his support
of equality of educational, job and'
housing opportunities, and has
lauded, along with busing foes, the
