Six arrested,

neo-Nazi rally

By ERIC MATTSON
and CAROLINE MULLER
Six people were arrested and two
police officers suffered minor in-
juries yesterday when protesters
clashed with 11 neo-Nazis holding a
rally on the steps of the Federal
Building.
The rally by members of the S.S.
Action Group began around 3:00
yesterday afternoon, two hours
later than scheduled and four
hours after about 60 demonstrators
gathered at City Hall to protest the
neo-Nazis presence.
NEO-NAZIS represent the
modern version of Hitler's party of
the 1930s and '40s.
According to leader John Reich
(whose name is a pseudonym), the
neo-Nazis demonstrate every year
in Ann Arbor "because Com-
munists are trying to take over
and destroy this city. It's just
sickening and we're not going to
tolerate this," he said.
A scuffle broke out shortly after
the neo-Nazis began their rally
when a counter-demonstrator,
shouting "you're a goddam killer,".
began to hit one of the neo-Nazis.
POLICE officers wrestled the at-
'tacker to the ground, and as other
scuffles began to break out the of-
ficers escorted the Nazis to a
parking lot behind the building and
put them on a police bus. Six coun-
ter-demonstrators were arrested
on charges ranging from disor-
derly conduct to assault and bat-
tery.
THIS YEAR'S demonstration
was much smaller than the rally
two years ago when a crowd of
1,200 ran from City Hall to the
Federal Building to confront a
small group of neo-Nazis. The neo-
Nazis avoided counter-demon-
strators last year by rallying two
hours before they were scheduled
to appear.
Yesterday, many of the anti-
Nazi demonstrators - made up of
the United Community Against the
Nazis (UCAN), the Progressive
Labor Party and International
Communists against Racism -
went home after waiting in the cold
since 11:00 a.m.
CARRYING signs saying
"Death to the Nazis" and "Smash
Racism," the counter-demon-
strators paraded outside of City
Hall for four long, cold hours
yesterday afternoon.
The 60 demonstrators, organized
by UCAN and the Revolutionary
Workers League, gathered in
hopes of deterring the neo-Nazi
party members from rallying.
"We will not sit quietly by," said
UCAN spokesperson Don Rogers.
"We will oppose (the Nazis) in
whatever form they appear, until
they disappear."
"WEre here to physically stop
the Nazis," said PLP member
Calvin Turner.
At one point during the rally,

Walter Mondale, declaring he had
scored "a national victory," put his
Democratic presidential candidacy
back on track Saturday, winning the
Michigan and Arkansas caucuses and
leading narrowly in Mississippi.
Civil rights activist Jesse Jackson
made his best showing of the year in
South Carolina, where he was born,
beating Mondale, but trailing a
majority vote for uncommitted
delegates. In Mississippi, Jackson was
close behind Mondale.
SEN. GARY Hart of Colorado was
winless in the six caucuses that picked
251 national convention delegates.
Mondale won with the aid of a big labor
vote in Michigan and the help of
traditional Democrats in Arkansas.
Mondale was jubilant, declaring,
"This is a national victory for us."
Long lines were reported at various
polling spots around Michigan, with
candidate supporters - armed with
literature and rhetoric - giving voters
last-minute pitches as they waited in
line.
OFFICIALS estimated 200,000 voters
turned out in the race that was expected
ito draw only 100,000.
Joel Ferguson, co-chairman of the
Jackson campaign, said that in some
1 places "the lines were so long we star-
ted feeding people.., so they wouldn't:
get discouraged."
Squabbling broke out among the
political camps, with Ellen Globokar,
Mondale's state director complaining
that credit card recipts were accepted
in the Ann Arbor area as identification.
ERNIE KESSLER a memeber - of
Hart's Michigan organization, charged
that $3 dollar tickets to a beer party
were given free to those voting for
Mondale at a site in Jackson County.
The practice was stopped when hart
backers protested, he said.
At stake in michigan were 136 of the
251 delegates to be chosen yesterday in
Michigan, Arkansas, Mississippi, South
Carolina and the Panama Canal Zone.
In Kentucky the first three of 120 coun-
ties held caucuses that finish March 31
A heavy uncommitted vote in
Mississippi and South Carolina in-
dicated that in the volatile 1984 election
year some Democrats could not see a
clear front-runner and were biding
their time.
MONDALE won 65 delegates yester-
day, Hart 40 and Jackson 12 in returns

Thomas said.
She warned, however, that a lot of
women are getting tired, saying that
the revolution is over - that it is an era
of post-feminism.
"Post-feminism means actresses are
dumb, housewives don't work, nobody
loves a PhD," Thomas said, adding that
women have to keep pushing or they
will lose ground in overcoming such
stereotypes.
THE NEXT goal that should be ac-
complished by the women's movement,
Thomas said, is to help men feel more
comfortable by allowing them to have
emotions and not take all the respon-
sibility for supporting a family.
The equal rights movement was the
first step insdissolving stereotypes, but
women must be inspired to keep the
movement alive, Thomas said. *And

production studio.
THE EQUAL rights movement,
which began 15 years ago, was the first
step in dissolving these stereotypes,

LAUSANNE, Switzerland - Druze Moslem leader
Walid Jumblatt warned yesterday that unless the
Lebanese peace talks agree on "radical reforms"
there will be 10 more years of civil war.
Jumblatt, speaking just before the full conference
resumed after a seven-hour delay, said President
Amin Gemayel ant his father Pierre Gemayel, head
of the Christian Phalange Party, had not yet accepted
the need for a new political system.
"WE WANT radical reforms, we want a new
historical compromise,' Jumblatt said.
"If we don't get it, it means another 10 years of civil
war."
As the negotiators met, their followers in Beirut
clashed in the heaviest fighting since a cease-fire was
imposed on Tuesday. Police said at least 13 people
were killed and 35 wounded in the battles.
WITH AN APPARENT impasse in the negotiations
for a consensus on reform, Syrian Vice President Ab-
dul Halim Khaddam directly intervened by meeting
privately with the key participants, Jumblatt, Amin
Gemayel and Shiite Moslem leader Nabih Berri.
Jumblatt said he was still demanding new elections
'to replace Gemayel, and said there had been no
agreement on any of the major concerns he raised at
the conference.
The Druze leader, accusing Pierre Gemayel of
"still trying to gain time," said it would not be easy to
get the dominant Christians represented by the
Phalange Party to share power.
THE ROLE of Khaddam remained crucial but it
was not clear who the Syrians were pressuring to get
the agreement they have insisted on.
Jumblatt said the Syrians were backing him "on
certain basic and important demands," but gover-
nment officials had earlier expressed the belief that
Khaddam would lean on Jumblatt and Berri in order
to reach an agreement.
"We hope that they will announce a final
agreement on national reconciliation and a plan for
implementing peace in Lebanon tomorrow,"
Gemayel's political adviser, Michel Samaha, said
when the session ended at 104p.m.
The closed-door conference was scheduled to
