SAN FRANCISCO (UPI) - Police
arrested at least 100 anti-war demon-
strators in the heart of the financial
district yesterday while up to 50,000
peace advocated prepared to rally out-
side the underground hall where the
Democratic National Convention was
under way.
Many of the demonstrators arrested
for blocking traffic in the downtown
business district were punk rockers af-
filiated with a group called "the War
Chest Tours," a police spokesman said.
SCORES of riot-clad officers moved
in for the arrests when the demon-
strators refused to disperse and sat
down on California Street, route of one
of the city's cable car lines.
Police said at least 100 people were
arrested for conspiracy to commit a
misdemeanor and blocking a sidewalk,
and were taken to the Hall of Justice
across town.
A spokeperson for the demonstrators
said the group had intended to conduct
a tour of financial district companies
they claimed had connections with the
Democratic party.
THE DEMONSTRATORS were
among several in the city yesterday.
Later in the day, some 50,000 peace
advocates made their bid to get the at-
tention of the Democratic Party by
matching the hoopla inside Moscone
Center with a giant rally outside the
underground hall.
Some 500 organizations wer expected
to take part in the "Vote Peace in '84"
gathering. Randall Forsberg, chair-
man of the group Nuclear Freeze, said
pre-convention lobbying was successful
and the proposed Democratic platform
contains nine of 10 points sought hy
peace groups.
The peace rally followed Sunday's
parades by labor union members and
homosexual rights advocates, who
jammed downtown streets in a pair of
rallies that attracted 300,000 people.
Despite some minor scuffles and
heckling during the gay parade, only
one arrest was made and police said it
was not directly connected with the
demonstrations.

"I HAVEN'T heard that," Mondale
said, "but I'd be willing to hear it."
Earlier yesterday, Jackson met with
Bert Lance, the newly annointed Mon-
dale campaign chief, and Democratic
Party Chairman Charles Manatt to
work out differences on platform
planks, and Manatt said Jackson would
play a "leadership role" in the party
this fall.
Hart tenaciously has refused to give
up his quest for the nomination and said
yesterday that if he becomes the
presidential nominee he, too, would
name Rep. Ferraro as his running
mate.

Youth issues raised at convention

(Continued from Page 3)
In the past two years, Brown has
masterminded a massive state-wide
voter registration program including
an effort on college campuses which
added more than 50,000 student voters
to the rolls.
In addition to registration and voting,
Brown stressed the importance of
students becoming involved in party
politics and running for local offices.
Brown himself successfully ran for the

Ohio state legislature at age 21, becom-
ing the youiigest member ever.
At least 300 college students and other
young activists participated in
workshops designed for the training
and education of young people for effec-
tive participation in the election this
fall, said organizer Bill Morton who
recently graduated from Georgetown
University in Washington and was
