Princeton
band- show
PRINCETON, N.J. (AP)- Princeton University's mar-
ching band has been banned from performing at the U.S.
Military Academy and urged to clean up its football game
halftime act, school officials say.
In recent years, the band has performed to the accom-
paniment of satire and sexual innuendoes in skits read by a
student announcer over stadium public address systems.
NEXT SATURDAY, Princeton's football team travels to,
play Army at West Point, N.Y., but officials there want no
part of the controversial commentary, an academy official
said.
Band president Michael Sanford said-the band's absence
from the Army game will mark the first time in 49 years the
group did not perform at a Princeton football game. .
Anger has been simmering throughout university circles
for at least a year, butthe band's performance two weeks
ago at the Delaware game "caused the pot to boil over,"
said Assistant Dean of Student Affairs Karen Tilbor.
THE PERFORMANCE, "A Long, Hard Look at Life With
Chemistry," spoofed the E.I. du Pont de Nemours & Co.'s
huge chemical industry in Delaware.
The show contained several plays on words such as
"organic" and "orgasm," which apparently offended many
spectators, especially some elderly Princeton alumni, said
Tilbor.
"Although there has been no official mandate to make us
change our band shows, the administration has made the
very strong suggestion, lots of verbal heat, that it would be
wise for us to change our ways," Sanford said.
Students were especially wary about the band's future
yesterday after Tilbor was quoted in the school paper as
saying, "There are several individuals who feel the band
could be replaced, but I certainly hope it won't come to
that."
"We will make an effort to clean up our act somewhat,
but I hope we won't be forced to take the fun and humor out
of our halftime shows," said Sanford, a senior.
The halftime skits are reviewed by a three-member panel
of administrators which includes Tilbor. She said that in the
future she would be more cautious in approving scripts
such as the one used during the Delaware game.

Thousands rally for peace
in West Germany
BONN, West Germany- More than 250,000 people gathered yesterday in
the biggest anti-war rally in recent memory and gave thunderous applause
to speakers urging Europe to free itself of nuclear weapons and prevent
Germany from becoming "a shooting gallery of the superpowers."
The crowd, which came to the West German capital by chartered train,
buses and river steamers, included soldiers in uniform, scores of parliamen-
tary deputies and leading figures from the nation's cultural and religious
life.
Guests at the rally included Coretta Scott King, widow of slain U.S. civil
rights leader Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and singer Harry Belafonte. Coret-
ta King told the crowd "millions of Americans stand by your side" and the
twp Americans joined in singing the civil rights hymn "We Shall Overcome"
at the close of the nearly 12-hour rally.
Absent was Chancellor Helmut Schmidt, who on Friday denounced the
demonstration as a "declaration of war" against the defense policies of his
government, including plans to station U.S. medium-range nuclear missiles
here.
One killed, 39 wounded
in IRA London attack
LONDON- The IRA struck less than a mile from Buckingham Palace
yesterday, detonating a booby-trapped laundry van by remote control and
sending six-inch nails and bolts scything into a bus carrying 23 Irish Guards
and their families.
Police said a woman passerby was killed and 22 guards and 17 other
people, including two children on the bus, were wounded in the blizzard of
nuts, bolts, flying metal and glass that turned Ebury Bridge Road outside
Chelsea Army Barracks into a blood-spattered battleground.
An official at Westminster Hospital said eight of the guards were un-
dergoing major surgery and one was on the critical list with a fractured skull
and another was likely to lose an eye.
The Irish Republican Publicity Bureau in Dublin said the attack-three-
quarters of a mile from Buckingham Palace-was aimed at the soldiers
because of a "state of war" existing between the British government and the
"oppressed Irish people."
Coast Guard to intercept
illegal Haitian refugees
MIAMI- A Coast Guard cutter sailed yesterday on the first patrol to in-
tercept Haitians fleeing their homeland, putting into effect a new policy of
turning back the illegal refugees before they reach U.S. shores.
The cutter Hamilton picked up supplies and fuel at the U.S. Naval Base at
Guantanamo, Cuba, before setting out, according to Lt. Neal Armstrong at
the Coast Guard's Miami office.
Coast Guard officials had revealed Friday that they would put into effect
over the weekend a new Reagan administration policy, cracking down on the
number of refugees who enter the United States by boat.
The Hamilton's crew is to intercept boats suspected of bringing illegal
aliens to Florida and turn them back.
Leaders of Miami's Haitian community have blasted the new policy, an-
nounced Sept. 29, as racist. They charge interdictioni intended to exclude
Haitian refugees because they are black.
An estimated 50,000 Haitians, fleeing their impoverished island home,
have landed on Florida shores since 1970.

Women's rights leader
calls for 8-month fight
0
0
WASHINGTON (UPI) - The
president of the National Organization
for Women yesterday exhorted 2,000
women's rights activists to commit the
next eight months of their lives to
ratifying the Equal Rights Amendment
and ending "once and for all" the age-
old debate over equality.
In an impassioned and militant call to"
arms, delivered at NOW's 14th national
convention, Eleanor Smeal warned
failure to see the ERA become part of
the Constitution would be "an
American tragedy."
"Whatever it takes for equality,
we're going to give it without question,"
she pledged. "We're going to do it
because we're going to end this
discussion once and for all. In fact,
we're going to end this humiliation for
once and for all."
With the deadline for ratifying the
ERA set for next June 30, the NOW con-
vention served as a launching pad for a
last-ditch effort to win support from the
last three states needed to bring a nine-
year quest to a successful conclusion.
Thirty-five states already have ap-
proved the amendment.
Amid the hopes, there also was
pragmatism. Smeal conceded to her
dedicated followers, "We aren't
fools .. . The smart political money is
against us."
But with the aid of the most
sophisticated political techniques and a
war chest of "millions and millions of
dollars," she promised a fight to the
finish that at times will be waged in
"the very heartland of our opposition."
