The Bach club is a collection of classical music lovers who meet each Thursday evening at 8 to listen to the works' of Beet- hoven, Handel, Dvoiak and other favorites in the Greene Lounge of East Quad. The performers are mostly Music School stu- dents but, as the Bach Club posters say, everyone is welcome, and no musical knowlege is required. The Bach Club was founded in the summer of 1968 by a University graduate student, Randy Smith, and about half a dozen other student music lovers, according to one of the found- ers who perfers to be called George. "We decided on the necessity of helping to satisfy the basic requirements of life - food, sex and classical music," s a y s George. "So we formed a club for listening to and performing kclassical music, and for-socializing afterward. "Several wide-eyed freshmen, eager to help, inflicted upon themselves the xwork of advertising the Bach Club," George continues. "We also made just about everyone who came to a 'meeting an officer, to help with the work." As Bach Club attendance dwindled during the fall of. '68, "the jelly donut was added as an incentive," resulting in more stu- dents coming to club meetings, says George. He adds that also at about this time, "the benevolence (money) of the founders ran out, and we started charing 35 cents a per- son to pay for food and publicity." Bach Club attenders now pay SO cents each meeting. The performers play and sing for free, says present program director b Halk. Halk says he finds performers by "going to the Music School and asking students there to come and perform whatever they want" at the Bach Club meetings. Last week featured the music of PDQ Bach, along with a piano-violin-cello trio by Dvorjak. On tonight's program are works by Bach and Viotti for violin and cello and a woodwind quintet. Plus, of course, cider and jelly donuts. By DAVID WEINBERG About 80 students rallied on the Diag. yesterday in support of the Jews of Syria and Iraq and the Kurds of Iraq. The Committee For Oppress- ed Minorities Under Arab Rule (CFOMUAR), a mainly Jewish student group, stressed what it called "another side to the Mid- dle East story." UNIVERSITY Prof. A s a d Khailing, an immigrant from Kurdistan said, "We are in re- volt against the Arab rulers in Iraq, not against the Arab peo- ple. Imagine - 200,000 people trapped. We need help." The Kurdsrare currently at war with Iraq. According to CFOMUAR 200,000 Kurds are trapped and face extermination by the Iraqis. The CFOMUAR resolved the following action be taken: -That the government of Iraq cease its program of genocide against the Kurdish people. -That Iran and Turkey main- tain open borders to the Kur- dish refugees. -That Iraq and Syria stop persecuting their Jewish minor- ities and allow the free emigra- tion of these people. -That blacks of the Sudan' be freed from government op- pression. They also suggested a series of measures to open the area up to the world press and United Nations. Marvin Weinberger, spokes- man for CFOMUAR added, "We understand t h a t government policies must change. But we are aware of suffering peoples in the Middle East and we feel this to be a new approach, a new paradigm."1 ORIGINALLY Solidarity Day was planned to focus only upon the Jews of Syria and Iraq. However three w e e k s ago CFOMUAR changed the pro- gram to include the Kurds and other non-Jewish minorities. Sandy Levin, spokesman for the CFOMUAR u n t i 1 three weeks ago stated that he had intended the program to focus only upon the problems of the Jews in such countries as Syria, Iraq and the Soviet Union. "You-have to look at the news media," said Levin. "The Jews are viewed as a group of usurp- ers of Palestine, homeland of the Palestinians. But they ig- nore these things-in the case of the Kurds, there is no Amer- ican support, because nobody knows about it." Levin added that he felt that there have been injustices on both sides and "the world must see these examples, of the Arab governments at work." But he asserted, "This is not neces- sarily a Zionist rally." SGC ELECTIONS PRESENTS: The Media VS. The Presidential Candidates NAT. SCI1. AU D.-8 P.M. TONIGHT Govt. yields at Phan Rang SAIGON, South Vietnam (P)- South Vietnamese government forces gave ground yesterday at embattled Xuan Loc and pulled out of one of the last two coastal enclaves they were holdIing northeast of Saigon. The Ministery of Defense said government units, under pres- sure of tank-led attacks by three N a t i o n a 1 Liberation Front (NLF) divisions, were ordered Bullard introduces Itenant rights' bills to fall back from the coastal city of Phan Rang and form a new defense line south of the city. PHAN RANG, 160 miles north- east of Saigon, had been iso- lated for some time and con- sidered shaky, while the fight- ing in the Xuan Loc area was being watched keenly for signs of a possible thrust against Saigon itself. Field reports said Xuan Loc, a provincial capital 40 miles east of Saigon, was holding, but South Vietnamese troops had made their first retreat from areas near the town after a week of savage fighting. Government forces were said to have pulled back from a dis- trict town 10 miles northwest of Xuan Loc, while other Saigont units were driven from a key position seven miles to the west on the highway leading to Saigon. WHILE THE Xuan Loc re- gion is not considered one of the traditional invasion routes toward Saigon, the action there is regarded as highly signifi- cant as an indicator of what effort will be made by govern- ment troops to hold the lines near the capital. The continuing fighting aroundj Xuan Loc follows a Communist- led offensive that has taken three-fourths of the country from control of the Saigon gov- ernment. Much of the territory in the northern and central areas was abandoned without a fight. Phan Rang was the 18th province capital lost by Saigon since the Communist-led ad- vance began in early March and the first given up since{ April 1.j The Defense Ministry com- munique announcing the pull- back from Phan Rang said the decision was made after top- level military commanders went, Ito the city forcan assessmeit of the situation. It added, "Due to the heavy enemy pressure and the imbalance of forces be- tween us and the enemy, the deputy prime minister has or- dered a temporary redeplay- ment to the south of the city to form a new defense line."

The bills, sponsored by rep- resentative Perry Bullard (D- Ann Arbor) would provide for collective bargaining, prohibit unannounced entry by land- lords, require a five per cent interest be paid on damage de- posits and prohibit lockouts and property seizures by landlords. "THESE BILLS are urgently needed to provide protection to renters from questionable land- lord practices," Bullard said. If the majority of the tenants of one landlbrd have any com- plaints about a condition of ten- ancy, including rental rates, the bargaining bill would create and protect their right to or- ganize and engage in legal ne- gotiations with the landlord. If the landlord refuses to ne- gotiate with this group or "does not bargain in good faith", the renters may begin a rent strike by paying their rent into an es- crow account. LARRY C 0 PE RM AN of the Tenants Union (TU) said this was the strategy of the 1969- 70 renters strike in the city, but they were unable to coerce the landlords to meet with them Super Sale Centicore on S.

Cooperman said the TU is or- ganizing area renters into lo- cals by geography and landlord for the purpose of working to- gether in the struggle with the landlords. Locals were in ex- istence in 1969, he added,but have since dissolved. Another bill would require landlords to give tenants five per cent interest on security deposits held during the dura- tion of the lease. i I Daily Classifieds Get Results PIRGIM (Pronounced "Purge 'em") Asks ALL its supporters to VOTE RESIDENTIAL COLLEGE in the BOARD OF DIRECTORS ELECTIONS WEDNESDAY and THURSDAY April 16 April 17 Being held from 9 a.m.-4 p.m. in the MASON HALL FISHBOWL PUBLIC INTEREST RESEARCH GROUP IN MICHIGAN 4106 Michigan Union 662-6597 courses are now open for registration.
