NDR ouRE CUTER. w Qc' /-c \ J RALLY Continued from page 1 arguments flew between the war protesters carrying signs saying, "Draft Quayle Now," and pro-Bush demonstrators carrying posters of the Vice President. Mark Sarro, a demonstrator supporting the Bush policy, said he came to Washington to "speak up for the 82 percent of America that supports Bush and real peace." Sarro, a resident of Fairfield, Con- necticut, said peace would begin with "a world without Saddam Hussein." As the protesters poured into the Ellipse behind the White House, speakers again came to the platform. Rev. Jesse Jackson criticized President Bush for taking America into the war. "The economic sanc- tions were working... now we have unleashed a fury. The price of oil is going up; the price of blood is going down." After Rep. Charles Rangle (D- N.Y.) finished addressing the crowd, he said he called for nego- tiation in Congress before the war began. He said, "Now that we are involved in the war, we should put diplomacy on the table." Rangle said he felt many peo- ple were in support of the war be- cause there haven't been any major American casualties and because "the press has been a rallying team for the amazing electronic victory we've been having." President of National Organiza- tion for Women Molly Yard said while she feels most women sup- port non-violent action, those who choose to join the military should be allowed to enter direct combat. Right now, because they are not legally allowed to be in combat, they receive less money than men. She said women should fight for the right to engage in combat if they so choose. "We've got to pressure Congress and the fact that there are so many women (in the Persian Gulf) who are doing a good job will help the cause," she said. Yard also said women should be included in a draft. "We want equal rights for women. We have to be willing to accept equal re- sponsibility." Now that Saddam Hussein has waged environmental war against 01 WASHINGTON Continued from page 1 party anyway with hidden wineskins. Anxious smokers break for posi- tion as first off the bus when it pauses to break. At the rest area, talk abounds 'with expectations of the following day. Although first-year LSA and dance student Alexandra Beller de- -scribed her bus as "cramped, tight, hot, and nauseating," she is eagerly anticipating the rally and march on Washington, D.C. When some share rumors sur- rounding the march, others react with concern. Many fear the possibility of skin- heads crashing the march will threaten their message. After midnight, the ride begins again, talk softens, and eventually most fall into a slumber. Ken James, a graduate student in English, found solace on the floor of the bus. Defending his niche, he said, "I slept on the floor because it was more comfortable than the seat." Saturday morning, the Ann Arbor entourage takes its place at RFK Stadium amongst throngs of simi- larly chartered buses arriving from locales across the nation. The trip's organizers establish 7 p.m. as the rendezvous time prior to departure for the return trip. Everyone has the day to accomplish their mission. Ten hours later, upon their return to the buses, activists share experi- ences. The crowds posed problems for those desiring to remain in groups throughout the day. People were easily separated. LSA junior Gabriella Swenson found it difficult to remain with her group during the march. She said she was not afraid for her safety despite Washington's reputation as America's murder capital. "How are you going to feel afraid of people carrying peace signs all over the place?" Swenson explained. LSA sophomore Chris Powers reacted to counter-demonstrators car- rying signs which read, "We support our soldiers, don't you?" "They don't understand that we do support our soldiers, our friends, and our relatives who are in the Gulf," Powers said. "And we want to save their lives and the lives of everyone tangled up in this evil war." During the march, riot police pre- pared themselves for violent inci- dents. Darcy Nuffer, a Residential College sophomore expressed an indignant attitude about the police's appearance. "They were trying to in- timidate us with tear gas guns and helmets and bully clubs," she said. Some University students seized the opportunity to speed-walk through the Smithsonian Institute. First-year LSA student Wendy Kaplan visited the National Gallery of Art on her first trip to Washington, D.C. "I finally got to see what I've been reading about in history books for so long," she said. As the bus departed for the 12- hour return to Ann Arbor, first-year LSA student Andrea Heiss expressed satisfaction with the one-day expedi- tion. "It was empowering to see thou- sands of groups represented," she said. "To be a part of it is something I'll never forget." An unidentified onlooker cheers on the mass of protesters marching on p S S Pennsylvania Avenue. the Allies by causing what appears to be the largest oil spill ever, the environment was a topic of dis- cussion. Peter Bahouth, the executive director of Greenpeace and acting U.S. Trustee to Greenpeace Inter- national said the oil spill has caused people to be more active in protesting the war. "It's become one of the first visible aspects of the war. They haven't seen dead bodies, but they have seen dead birds," Bahouth said. He said Greenpeace was going to be "pushing people to push en- vironmental projects that will get us off our dependency on oil as a source of energy." The protesters came from all parts of the country with many different cultural backgrounds. Vietnam War Veteran Chip Trojano said this war already has many similarities to Vietnam. "I can't stand to watch our generation die like we were sent out to die," he said. Bob Windham, a demonstrator in support of U.S. intervention from Greenbelt, Maryland said, "This is not Vietnam. The objec- tives of this war are clearly de- fined." He said the objectives were to "free Kuwait and destroy Saddam." A large group of Arab-Ameri- cans marched together. Roger Harb from Knoxville, Tennessee said Arabs and Israelis should put aside- their differences and fight together for peace. "I feel bad when bombs hit Tel-Aviv, I feel bad when they hit Baghdad. I'm for peace." The National Campaign for Peace, a coalition of religious, la- bor and human-rights groups, or- ganized the rally..

GULF Continued from page 1 540,000 Iraqi soldiers in and near oc- cupied Kuwait. Cheney announced U.S. forces had taken military action to stop the colossal oil spill in the northern Persian Gulf that he blamed on Iraq. The spill, part of which was re- ported burning, threatened water supplies in Saudi Arabia, where most of the U.S. forces are based, and could hinder an amphibious as- sault on Kuwait, if the allies choose to launch one. U.S. military officials have said Iraqis turned on pumps at a Kuwait offshore oil loading facility and fed the spill with five idle tankers hold- ing a total of 125 million gallons of crude oil. Oil shipping and environmental experts said the oil cannot be con- tained because of the rough gulf wa- ters, the size of the spill, and the war. As U.S. forces worked to staunch the oil spill, coalition air forces toolc advantage of clear skies over Iraq to send wave after wave of warplanes on more bombings sorties in the 11- day-old war.

"The speakers tended to down- play the big firms, which I found inexplicable. I think of big firm work as involving big deals, the kinds of large scale transactions you don't see anywhere else," he said. Other students are looking be- yond the big corporate law firms. "I'd rather work for a smaller plaintiffs' firm. I want to have time to have a life," said first-year law student Karen Libertiny. One aspect of legal practice which the programs have empha- sized is the high demands many@ large law firms place on young at- torneys. "Much of what the big firms do involves terribly boring work and horribly long hours," Carol Kanarek, head of the New York outplacement firm of Kanarek & Shaw, said. Are first-year students panick- ing about the job market they will be facing? "I think they're basi- cally resigned to it. I don't sense people losing their equanimity," Schluckebier said. ~be~Iiboan Lg The Michigan Daily (ISSN 0745-967) is published Monday through Friday during the fall and winter terms by students at the University of Michigan.
