Soviets
forbid
activists'
meeting

MOSCOW (AP) - Activists
who organized a human rights sem-
inar to test the new Soviet "open-
ness" got official warnings yesterday
that it was illegal and found the
meeting hall they had rented closed
for a "sanitary day."
Sponsors of the seminar said
many foreign guests could not get
visas.
By contrast, Pushkin Square and
the House of Union were filled by
official groups holding approved
rallies on International Human

Rights Day.
Alexander Rubchenko, whose un-
official organization tries to build
trust between the United States and
Soviet Union, said about 20 police
officers detained him and seven other
members for several hours when they
left an apartment for Pushkin Square
to hold their own demonstration.
The unofficial seminar came the
day after Soviet leader Mikhail Gor-
bachev defended Soviet human rights
policies in a talk with U.S. journal-
ists in Washington.

Four members of the U.S. House
of representatives and a Czech dis-
sident received permission to travel
to Moscow for the seminar sponsored
by Press Club Glasnost, named for
Gorbachev's policy of greater open-
ness in Soviet society.
Lef Timofeyev, the organizer of
the seminar, said more foreign guests
had been expected from the United
States, Poland and West Germany,
but they had been refused Soviet
visas.

Protesters confront 'U' and

questions to Director of Public
Safety Leo Heatley about Marcuse's;
arrest, chanting, "Public safety's not
safe lately," while carrying signs
proclaiming, "Fire Patrick," and "say
no to low blows."
Heatley, addressing the protesters
outside the Department of Public
Safety, would not comment on Mar-
cuse's charges, saying, "It's pending

in court."
The rally continued at City Attor-
ney Bruce Laidlaw's City Hall office.
Laidlaw said he would review the
case once more during the next week,
because he said he "didn't recall" see-
ing testimony from protesters. But
the police report does include three
students' testimony.
After leaving City Hall, the
protesters went to County Prosecutor

William Delhey's office in an at-
tempt to open an investigation for
conspiracy. Delhey was unavailable,
and the students were told that a case
involving Ann Arbor police must be
investigated by state officials.
Two weeks ago, about 30 student
protesters pushed past Heatley at the
Student Activities Building to gain
access to a hallway that led to CIA
interviews.
In the police report, Heatley testi-
fied to Det. Richard Kinsey that he
saw Marcuse grab Ann Arbor Police

way, and knee him in the back.
After protesters gained access to
another hallway, Marcuse said he was
kicked in the groin by Patrick. But in
the report, Patrick said Marcuse
kneed Assistant Director of Public
Safety Robert Pifer in the back, and
when Marcuse turned toward him, he
kicked Marcuse in self-defense.
Pifer's statement agrees, but Pifer
said he did not see his assailant or
Patrick's action.

and David Schwartz filed reports for

"It's a disgrace that as the wealth-

world, people are starving," Klein
said.
Project Warmth, a group started
in November by two students, raised

over $1,000 through campus bucket
drives last month. With the money,
members bought wool socks, hats,
and gloves to send to a shelter for
the homeless in Detroit and Ann
Arbor.
"I was ignored when I started
holding the bucket outside," said
LSA junior David Cracchiolo,
founder of Project Warmth.
