"March on, march on, march on," he urged the crowd. THE demonstrators, exhausted by their three-hour march in 90 degree heat, managed to rally behind Jackson with chants of "Jesse, Jesse, Jesse." The protesters marched the two miles from the Ellipse, a park near the Washington Monument, to the Capitol. Several protesters, suffering from the heat, dropped out of the march. The sweltering heat brought big business for soda vendors who charged $1 for cans of Coca-Cola, despite the fact that many of the protesters were boycotting Coca-Cola products. The demonstrators say Coca-Cola broke an agreement with Nicaraguan workers to keep its plant in operation if it turned a profit. CENTRAL AMERICA was just one theme brought up during the march. The crowd, in addition to demanding no aid to the Contras in Nicaragua, called for an end to apartheid in South Africa, and cuts in military spending. Jackson lauded the protesters, many college students, and praised actions of civil disobedience in the protest of apartheid at schools across the country. "ON CAMPUSES around the nation, at Columbia, at Rutgers, at Berkeley our youth are waking up," said Jackson. "A long night of slumber has ceased, giving way to the fight against apartheid." "As our youth matures, and they grow more away from yuppieism, they will grow towards sacrificing, caring, sharing, and moral resistance to tyran- ny and terror," Jackson said. Saying that it was "time for a change," Jackson announced that student leaders at colleges involved in apartheid demonstrations will con- verge at Columbia next week in a challenge for other universities to engage in a "national student sym- pathy day" to show support for blacks in South Africa. JACKSON compared South African apartheid with Nazism, and said, "the ultimate result of a philosophy based on racial supremacy is genocide." "Our society is madness," he said. "child abuse is madness. Drug abuse is madness. Attempting to overthrow a government in Central America that we have diplomatic relations with is mad- ness, strengthening ties with a new fascist state of South Africa is madness. To trade with South Africa is mad- See JACKSON, Page 3 'students j oin in.

The local Latin Amererican Solidarity Committee (LASC) organized the protest of University students, sending two buses and several vans filled with protesters to the demonstration. . "(I AM HERE) very specifically for Nicaragua and Central America," said LSA sophomore Adam Eigner, a LASC member. Tomorrow, Eigner, and other college students from across the country, plan to sit on the steps of the White House un- til they are arrested, according to a spokesman for the April Resistance Movement, a group of protesters. "I feel very strongly that it is time for civil disobedience in this country," said Eigner, who is planning on being arrested tomorrow.

The symposium, sponsored by Free Inquiry Magazine, drew a crowd of nearly 500 to the Union's Ballroom to discuss controversial questions regar- ding traditional views of Jesus.

Yells of "Hi, Bob!" greet the tall, slim music school junior as he passes students whom he has taught to dan- ce-students who compare him to the famous Broadway choreographer Bob Fosse. The 23-year-old Nye dreams of working with Fosse who has choreographed such musicals as Cabaret, All that Jazz, and Chicago. And that dream may become reality. Even though Nye had little formal training before he came to the Univer- sity this year, he has already caught Fosse's eye. Nye transferred from Kellogg Com- munity College in Battle Creek with an impressive list of nearly 100 plays which he has either performed in, directed, or choreographed. Though some might rest on their past achievements, Nye is always looking for other projects. "When I auditioned here, I met with the choreographer of the Sophomore Show and said, 'That's the job I want,' and the next year I got it," Nye recalls. Indeed, he coordinated dance routines not only for last fall's Sophomore Show of Grease as well as the Musket production of Pippin. He also choreographed The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas for a theater Pro file group in Jackson, Michigan this year. At present, he spends three hours a night choreographing West Side Story for Northwest High School in Detroit. That job is piled on top of three hours of rigorous dance classes each day. But he even finds time now and then to train Junior Miss contestants and substitute for graduate student dance instructors in the music school. W HAT keeps Nye bopping through such a demanding routine? Perhaps it is the fact that he insists upon having fun while he works. When he cast performers for Pippin', Nye said he put more emphasis on a per- son's pleasant personality than on his See UNIVERSITY, Page 2 Larry Nye, a School of Music dance major, poses at the CCRB.

"I didn't know how to word that ad. At $5 a word, you haven't got time to tell a long story," he said. Mrs. Nicely said there had been confusion, even among Tampico's 500 residents, over precisely what the term "Birthplace" refers to since Reagan gained fame as an actor.

Some officials felt the officer simply took the judge's position too literally. "Doonesbury" pulled A "DOONESBURY" comic strip set in a Florida motel room jammed with college students on spring break was pullled Thursday from several newspapers which found its humor in noor taste. One newspaper deleted Dart of the Louis Post-Dispatch cited the same reason for pulling Thursday's comic. Editor Murray Light of the Buffalo, N.Y., News said he withheld it for fear "it would be offensive to a big percentage of our readership." The panel shows two characters in a motei room watching a large group of students on the floor. One character presumes the scene is an orgy, but his companion tell shim it is merely "what a bunch of college kids sharing a motel room looks like." i
