presidential nominee Lester

national headquarters in Atlan-

If we can get the national;

to have under fair campaigning
rules, this will be a new cam-

ers waved signs, "This is Mad-

:MADDOX, who first gained
attention morethan a decade
ago when he used ax handles'
to chase blacks from his At-
lanta fried chicken restaurant,
expressed his support for white
minority governments in South
Africa and Rhodesia, which arej
under increasing pressure from
blacks both within and without.
"We should support the gov-
ernments that have made South
Africa andbRhodesia two of the
most stable and productive
countries in Africa," Maddox'
said.
Maddox also repeated claims
that his life had been threat-
ened.
"ONE GROUP called and ask-
ed if I wanted to be shot down
or blown up," the former gov-
ernor said. "I told them I'd
rather be blown up, because;
I wanted to go up, not down."
He continued his attacks on
Democratic presidential nomin-
ee Jimmy Carter, saying, "He's
cold, he's cruel, he's mean, he'll
crush anyone who gets in his'
way."
"I don't mind occasional lies
so much as I do the fact that
he never seems to tell the
truth," Maddox said.

McCARTHY said he was har-
ried by "crazy laws" which fa-
vor the major parties. He told
the luncheon he has court fights
in "five or six states" which
could help him get on the ballot.
In one case, following an un-
favorable decision Monday by
the 8th U. S. Circuit Court of
Appeals, McCarthy yesterday
appealed for a U. S. Supreme
Court order placing his name

The secretary of state's office
said state Appeals Court Judge
Alan Hale had stayed a lower
court ruling that McCarthy had

a place on the ballot.
McCarthy supporters in Mas-

signatures to get him on the
ballot last July, well over the
37,096 needed to qualify. But
city and town clerks refused to

OPEN LETTER
To People Who Like to SING
We know you like to sing. But do you also
like to act? To feel a full orchestra playing for
you? And most of all, do you like to have fun?
If your answers to the above are yes, you
ought to consider our offer. We are a new
group, so you may not know too much about us.
We were gotten together by people who feel
that musical theatre is one of the most enjoy-
able and rewarding experiences in life, and
that there should be a way for people to have
it without giving up their jobs, homes and
families, and perhaps their sanity. Ours is a
group for all to enjoy.
But with a difference. We produce mag-
nificent comic operas that aren't to be seen
anywbe-re -:se. Yew Faglish translations are
welded to the works of Strauss, Offenbach,
Rossini and other composers to make each
season's production a premier.
This year our major show is Lehar's "The
Merry Widow," which promises to be as excit-
ing for us and as successful as last year's "La
Belle Helene." For this we need a large chorus.
We need more than just soloists.
Please come to our ORGANIZATIONAL
MEETING this SUNDAY, Sept. 19, 7:30 at
ART WORLDS, 2131/ S. Main St., Ann Arbor.
If you would like more information, or
you would rather have a specific try-out time,
call 665-6074.
Our group is fun and it is extremely re-
warding. Join us. You won't regret it.

TOKYO (Al) - Aside from theE
crowds filing past ChairmanI
Mao Tse-tung's bier in Peking,
thousands are showing their re-
spect by filing into the me-
morial hall in Shanghai where
the first Chinese Communist
party congress met, a Peking
broadcast said yesterday.
"From dawn till dark, group
after group of workers, peas-
ants, soldiers, revolutionary
cadres, intellectuals, and peo-
ple from various circles have
been filing into the memorial
hall" where the first congress
was held 55 years ago, the offic-
ial Hsinhua news agency said.
THE PARTY has grown from
70 members represented then
by 12 delegates to a member-
ship of 28 million, and the party
"is the leading core for the
whole Chinese people and a pil-
lar of world revolution." the
agency added.
In Hong Kong, an estimated
20,000 mourners attended a me-
morial service for Mao vester-
day at the local branch of Pe-
king's Bank og China.
Queues that started to form
shortly afterdawn stretched to
a nearby park by noon, and 10
British army tents were erected
there to protect mourners from
the sun.
FLORAL wreaths silled out
from the bank to nearby streets,
surrounding the bank complete-
ly.
Trhe mourners included senior
Hong Kong government offic-
ials as well as foreign diplo-
mats, businessmen and Chinese
residents. Some wept openly.
Because of the large numbers,
another service was scheduled
for today.
OTHER mourning activities
were going on at Yenan, the
Communist cave headquarters
from which Mao led the fight
against Chiang Kai-shek's Na-
tionalist Chinese troops and
Japanese invaders between
1936 and 1948, Hsinhua report-
ed.

age of 82, it said, workers, peas- Tien An Men square. From
