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.

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 Students help homeless 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 Det.

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. - Daily Staffers Andrew Mills and David Schwartz filed reports for this story.
