A handful of students carrying an American flag walked in on an anti- draft demonstration of about 100 stu dents at FSU Tuesday. The scuffle amounted to little more than pushing and shoving, and no arrests or injuries were reported. Elsewhere Tuesday, protesters gathered at Princeton and Brown universities, and at Williams College in Williamstown, Mass. At Princeton, a demonstration by a group called Princeton Against Registration and the Draft claimed the proposal to have 19- and 20-year- olds register for the draft this year was politically motivated. “Registration is not justified by current events,” Mark Waren, co- chairman of the protest group, told the demonstrators. “Carter is trying to take advantage of the current mood of patriotism. About 500 Brown University stu dents rallied on campus, then about 150 of them marched to the down town Providence, R.I., military re united Press International CHICAGO — Mass murder sus pect John Wayne Gacy ordered young men to dig what apparently were graves under his suburban home and got “very upset” if workers dug in the wrong area, said a young man who lived with Gacy. Michael A. Rossi, 20, testified Tuesday he dug knee-high drainage trenches for Gacy in the summer of 1977. Prosecutors say that was after Gacy already had started using the crawlspace beneath his house as a graveyard. Gacy, accused of the sex killings of 33 boys and young men, is charged with more slayings than any other person in U.S. history. “He would go down into the crawl- space and give a specific area in which to dig,” Rossi testified. “He’d actually mark it out with sticks.” “How would Gacy act if someone moved away from the markers?” de fense attorney Robert Motta asked. “He’d get very upset,” Rossi said. Gacy sat emotionless during the questioning. Prosecutors have said Gacy ordered ditches dug “because he wanted to have graves available” for his victims. Rossi also said Gacy’s home some times reeked of the “musty odor,” but the smell went away after Rossi dumped 800 to 900 pounds of lime in the crawlspace on orders from Gacy. David F. Cram, 22, said he dug some drainage trenches for Gacy in late August 1977 and noticed several “small mounds” in the crawlspace. Prosecution statements indicate by that time, Gacy had already used the area to bury 11 of the 22 bodies iden tified and linked to him. Rossi and Cram both said they lived with Gacy and worked for him. ‘Soldier’s soldier’ now 87 cruiting office, which was not open. The students sang, chanted “No war, no draft,” and carried signs — one of them reading “Stop Registra tion Now: Draft Amy.” The demon strators heard speeches by Brown chaplains, professors and students and local activists. “America does not want to go through another era like Vietnam,” student body president Charlie King told demonstrators. “I urge you to (3rruV\ owtl say ‘no’ to registration, to the draft and definitely to a war.” About 100 students also gathered at Williams College in William stown, Mass., for an anti-draft de monstration. United Press International EL PASO — The nation’s only liv ing five-star general, the man they call “the soldier’s soldier,” spent his 87th birthday Tuesday at home with his biographers and a longtime friend. Gen. Omar Nelson Bradley, a Clark, Mo., native, and a 1915 gra duate of West Point, has been on active duty in the U.S. Army for more than 68 years, longer than any soldier in American history. Now stationed at Fort Bliss, Brad ley entertained the former deputy director of the CIA, Lt. Gen. Vernon Walters, in his home Tuesday and spent part of his time conferring with biographers. Bradley celebrated his birthday Monday, a day early. Some 70 guests attended the VIP celebration in Pace Hall that concluded at 11:30 p.m. During the party, Bradley re ceived birthday greetings from Pres ident Carter and Vice President Mondale, Defense Secretary Harold Brown, Army Chief of Staff Edward Meyer, and Veteran’s Affairs Direc tor Max Cleland. Bradley, said to be a little teary- eyed, sang along with a 20-man chor us which performed his favorite songs. One, in particular, was “Dog Face Soldier, ” a ditty his troops sang in northern Tunisia during World War II. Convicted murderer could wait 5 years for execution United Press International ORLANDO, Fla. — A state pro secutor says it could take up to five years before a death warrant is signed for any of Theodore Bundy’s three death sentences. The latest of the sentences was given Bundy Tuesday for the 1978 murder of a 12-year-old girl. State Prosecutor Jerry Blair says the automatic appeals through state and federal courts will be lengthy. “The Spenkelink appeal took five years,” he said. “That’s the only criteria any of us have.” John Spenkelink was the first man to die against his will pndyr an exgcu- tion order ip the United ^tajp^ni 12 . years. He was electrocuted May 25, 1979, at Florida State Prison. Immediately after being sent enced Tuesday, Bundy was taken back to his death row cell at the pris on— the same cell Spenkelink occu pied before his execution. A Circuit Court jury of seven women and five men convicted Bun dy last week of kidnapping Kimberly Diane Leach from Lake City Junior Heart attack kills Janssen United Press International SANTA MONICA, Calif. — Screen actor-TV star David Janssen died of a massive heart attack at his Malibu Beach home Wednesday. He was 49. A family spokesman said the star of the TV series, “The Fugitive” and “Harry O” suffered the attack about 4a.m. and was taken to Santa Monica emergency hospital where he was pronounced dead. His long-time friend and fellow actor, Stuart Whitman, was among the first to know of his death. “I rushed into the house and saw a bunch of men working feverishly to save David’s life,” he said. “They finally got his heart going by mechanical means and put him in an ambulance. I took his wife, Dani, to the hosptial where their doctor, Rex Kennamer, said he was dead.” Whitman and Janssen were under contract together at Universal Stu dios in the early 1950s and Whitman had appeared as a guest on one of “The Fugitive” episodes. A friend said that on Tuesday Jans sen finished his second day of filming in anew TV movie, “Father Damien: Leper Priest.” High School on Feb. 9, 1978, killing her, and dumping her body in a rusty pig sty 35 miles away. Blair said he doubts the hand some, 33-year-old former law stu dent would be extradited to Colora do, where he faces charges in the sex-slaying of a nurse. “I just don’t think the governor of the state will be willing to extradite him,” Blair said. Bundy faces two other death sentences meted out in Miami last July when he was con victed in the sex-slayings of two Flor ida State University Chi Omega sorority sisters in Tallahassee. Circuit Judge Wallace Jopling would not consider the last-minute request Tuesday of chief defense attorney J. Victor Africano that sen tencing be delayed until Bundy could be subjected to further psychiatric evaluation. Chief Prosecutor Bob Dekle cal led Africano’s request “a stalling tactic.” On The Double Northgate 846-3755 XEROX COPIES, TYPING We specialize in Resumes, Theses, Dissertations Open M-F, 7 a.m.-10 p.m. Sat., 9-6 RECORD SALE!
