McGovern candlelight march
draws over 2000 supporters
By GORDON ATCHESON
Chanting "We Want George"
and "Dump Nixon, Dump Thieu;
peace in '72", over 2000 McGovern
supporters marched across cam-
pus last night, following a rally
at People's Plaza.
The rally and march were spon-
sored' by Students for McGovern-
Shriver, Students for Sallade,
Michigan Peace Coalition, and the
Vietnam Veterans Against the
War. The organizers hoped the
rally would help get out the stu-
dent vote today.-
"If we get over 300 people the
march will be a victory" said
Adam Levin of the Students for
McGovern shortly before the rally
began. Over 400 people attended
the rally which started at 7:30.
Following a speech by Levin
urging volunteers to work today
taking people to the polls and a
brief performance by a rock band,
the march began.
Carrying candles and signs, the
group marched up E. Madison, to
East Quad, to Church, Geddes, and
Observatory Streets. The march
continually gained support as it
progressed.
Reaching full strength at Obser-
vatory, the group moved across
the 'Diag and back to People's
Plaza. At the Plaza George Sal-
lade, Democratic candidate for
county prosecutor addressed the
crowd.
"Have we had enough of ITT,
Watergate, and bombing in Viet-
nam? Let's get out and vote for
McGovern tomorrow!" he ex-
horted. At around 9:30 p.m. Mike
Lewis of the Vietnam Veterans
Against the War concluded the
march and rally saying "If we're
going to turn America around we
need McGovern tomorrow. You've
made tonight one helluva success
-let's make tomorrow as big a
success."
The march was peaceful through
out its entire route. Nonetheless a
police motorcycle escort accom-
panied the marches. The entire
line of marchers extended over a
quarter of a mile in length and
backed up traffic at South Uni-
versity, Geddes, and State Streets.
Besides Sallade, Perry Bullard,
Democratic candidate for state
representative participated in the
march. "McGovern may carry
Michigan if 500 kids turn out to
held in Detroit tomorrow" heI
claimed.
As the marchers wound throughj
the campus they received numer-1
ous cheers from bystanders and
motorists. "It makes you feel good
to know so many people care."
commented one participant. Anoth-
er said "I'm here because I'm a
confirmed McGovern voter and
every little bit helps."
The Communist Party had a rep-
resentative at the rally who passed
out literature and declared "Gus
Hall is the only candidate who
consistently fights Nixon."
Another participant had a rather
unusual reason for being at the
rally. "I just like to hold candles."
he maintained. So it goes.

Applause broke out from the de-

decision was read.

Council administrative vice-presi-

dismissal of charges against him,
but added, "this (the decision) still
doesn't make Elden a liberal
judge."
"It's far out," said Genie Plam-
ondon, former city council can-
didate. Asked if more craters
would be dug, she replied, "I'm

to keep them in control of the
house.
On the other hand, Republicans
are hoping that enough marginal-
ly Democratic districts will vote
Republican to give them a major-
ity in the house for the first time
since 1967.
The Republicans pin their chanc-
es of controlling the House on a
good showing in Kent County (in-
cluding Grand Rapids), Washte-
naw, Oakland and Macomb Coun-
ties, and East Lansing.

Council supports
lettuce boycott
By DEBRA THAL
'ity Council last night passed
a resolution calling for community
support of the lettuce boycott by
the United Farm Workers (UFW).
The resolution urges local resi-
dents "not to buy or eat California
or Arizona iceberg (head) lettuce
for the duration of the boycott."
The action followed a mud-sling-
ing debate between the Republi-
cans, who voted against the reso-
lution and the Democrats and Hu-
man Rights Party (HRP), who
proposed it.
"Quit tinkering around with sym-
bolic gestures and playing politi-
cal games," sai RCouncilman
William Colburn (Rep. - Third
Ward). "Do something the work-
ers want," he said suggesting that
HRP give money to the Bureau of
Industrial and Labor Relations in-
stead of spending it on campaign
advertisements in this newspaper.
"Colburn's statement smacks of
paternalism," charged Councilman
Gerald DeGrieck (HRP - First
mr
Ward). "If the farmworkers didn't'
want this boycott, we wouldn't be'
doing this."
Various Republicans asserted
that the lettuce boycott was "not
city business," and that "boycotts
are neither legitimate or non-vio-
lent."
The boycott by more than 20,000,
lettuce workers began in August
1970 at the successful conclusion
of the grape boycott, also organized!
by Cesar Chavez and the UFW.
In other action, Council allocat-
ed $11,250 for various comriunity
day care centers.
Originally, in the 1972-3 budget,
Council appropriated a total of
$40,000 This part of the allocation
was held up due to possible bud-
get problems. However, with the
addition of the revenue-sharing
funds to the budget, Council de-
cided to complete the budgeted al-
location.
