irish nationalists to
rally in Dublin today

4

BELFAST, Northern Ireland (UPI)
- About 500 Irish nationalists marched
toward Dublin yesterday for the second
mass rally in a week to show support
for the IRA hunger strike by eight in-
mates at the Maze prison.
Two of the hunger strikers - Kieran
Doherty, 25, and Kevin Lynch, 24, -
were near death after more than two
months without food.
PREPARING FOR the worst after
last Saturday's bloody clashes between
police and demonstrators outside the
British Embassy in Dublin, the Irish
government canceled all police leave,
called in 2,000 reserve officers from
nearby towns and put the army on
standby alert.
Relatives said both Doherty and Lyn-
ch, who have refused food for 64 days
and 63 days, respectively, were lucid
but the Britain's Northern Ireland Of-
fice said "their condition continues to
deteriorate."

THEIR DEATHS would make them
the seventh and eighth Irish
nationalists to die in the prison protest.
An estimated 500 supporters of the
hunger strikers and their demands for
political prisoner status neared the end
of a 50-mile march to Dublin that will
culminate today with a mass rally.
Organizers said they expect 10,000
people to attend the demonstration.
Wearing black arm bands and
holding black-bordered flags, the
mostly youthful demonstrators began
their march Wednesday at Newry, a
town just over the border in Northern
Ireland.
The marchers held giant placards
reading, "Don't let any more die" and
"Your T.D. (member of parliament) is
dying" - a reference to Doherty, who
was elected to his post from prison.
A similar rally last weekend drew
17,000 demonstrators, who attempted to
storm the British Embassy in Dublin.

B USINESS WAS SO GOOD at Omaha, Nebraska's only "X-rated
bakery"that it went out of business. Demand was just too high for
delicacies shaped like human lips and other body parts, one of the bakers
said. "We didn't know how big it was going to get," said Lori Gnader, 20, one
of two housewives who placed a want ad one Sunday saying, "You name it,
we bake it." Immediately, more than a half-dozen orders came in. And Mrs.
Gnader took'to her oven with help from neighbor Janet Baer, 24. Eventually,
business got too good. "We didn't have time to do it, so we quit," Mrs.
Gnader said. They're still baking wicked pastry for friends who ask. And
because of the interest from thesingle ad, they sense they might have stum-
bled onto something. "We haven't seen anything like it around here," she
said. "So we'll probably go back into business after a while." l
