Tom- Bloom, who has an account with the bank, said that he would not withdraw his money. merely because the bank sold the Krugerrand. "I'm not going to stop banking here," he said. After half an hour, the group of protesters moved to the local office of Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner and Smith, one of the largest brokerage firms in the country, and the largest seller of the krugerrand. AGAIN THE GROUP paraded into Daily printer dies, A very dear friend of the Daily staff, Myron Crosswait, died yesterday morning at St. Joseph's Mercy Hospital four days before his 51st birthday. Myron, a printer in the Daily shop, was a friend to many students who have worked for the student publications. We extend our deepest sympathy to his wife Gloria and his children: Steven, Earle Myron Jr., and Sherrie. Myron had been active in our business for many years. He owned and published the Ringsted Dispatch in Ringstead, Iowa. He helped found Demco, Inc., a' publishing firm in Ann Arbor, Myron lived in Ann Arbor for the past 16 years, was a member of the Westside United Methodist Church, and was past commander of the Erwin Prieskorn Post 46 of the American Legion. Funeral services will be held Saturday at 2:30 p.m. at the Muehlig Chapel. Burial will follow in B thlehem Cemetery. The family has asked that instead of flowers, memorials be made to St. Joseph's Mercy Hospital Cancer Research or the American Cancer Society. 10 4frica c' the office chanting slogans, and reread its prepared statement, this time to office manager Ed Heekin. After listening to the statement, Heekin said, "I respect your point of view. Now I hope you respect mine.' He added that he would be glad to listen to a couple of representatives but would not entertain the entire group. But the group was unwilling to split up, so communications broke down. Heekin refused further com- ment, and the group moved outside and picketed for about half an hour. In a later interview, ieekin pre- sented a written statement which said, "Merrill Lynch is not trying to promote or support the South African government through the sale of the krugerrand." He said his company was only filling a public demand for gold coins. DESPITE THE suggestion from the U.N. that all financial institutions stop collaborating with South Africa, Bank President John Paul said he has no intention of discontinuing his bank's sale of the coin. oin sales "We have received nothing from regulatory or supervisory bodies indicating that we should stop (sell- ing the coin)," Paul said. Like his counterpart at Merrill Lynch, Paul insisted that his bank was only providing a customer service. He explained they are just selling something that people have a right to buy. If a bank stopped selling the coin it would be depriving its customers of their rights, he claimed, and added, "That's just not the American way." Nonetheless, RCYB member Ran- dy Schwartz said he thought the protest was effective. "The intention was to keep up pressure on those institutions who sell the Krugerrand," he said. "I think it was successful." Schwartz went on to explain that yesterday's demonstration was part of a national movement against the Krugerrand. "We're hoping to build toward a national protest on Satur- day occurring in Chicago, New York, Philadelphia, and San Francisco," he said.

The company's 1.5 million cutomers have shifted 300,000 kilowatt-hours of electricity away from the peak daytime hours of use, says company chairman William B. Kuhns. This amount is the capacity of a medium-sized, coal-fired generating station, Kuhns notes. While some of this reduction is the result of conservation, energy management by its customers is the major factor, he explains. "Moving the use of electricity to off- peak night hours," says Kuhns, generator "reduces the need to build new generating plants to meet growing demand for energy during the day. This, coupled with the fact that elec- tricity is less costly to generate in the large 'base load' plants operating at night, will lessen the need for future rate increase." 11 "t INTRODUCING: KIM and HEATHER BOB and DAVID x at DASCOLA STYLISTS E.
