Integration commemorated

OXFORD, Miss. — The Uni
versity of Mississippi Thursday
commemorated the 20th
anniversary of its blood-stained
desegregation that began Sept.
30, 1962, with James Meredith’s
enrollment.
University officials tried to
downplay violence that erupted
when Meredith arrived at the
campus. They said the positive
aspects of integration at Ole
Miss, a 134-year-old liberal arts
school, would be stressed in the
three-day anniversary program.
The grey-bearded Meredith,
who now makes his home in
Jackson, Miss., spoke Thursday
night at Fulton Chapel, next to
the grassy circle where a bloody
night of rioting erupted in 1962
when he was first brought to the
campus by federal marshals.
He officially enrolled the
next morning while the odor of
tear gas hung over the debris-
strewn, bullet-torn campus.
That night, a French news
paper reporter and an Oxford
jukebox service man were killed,
and more than 200 others in
jured as the riot raged into the
chilled predawn hours.
The angry crowd, mostly Ole
Miss students but also hundreds
of outsiders, finally was forced
to retreat before the fixed
bayonets of regular Army
troops and federalized National
Guardsmen.
Meredith, an Air Force veter
an who previously attended
Jackson State College, was safely
tucked away in his dormitory
room during the battle.
Meredith initially said he
might not participate in the acti
vities because he was expected to
praise a lot of progress for blacks
that he said hasn’t been made.
But he announced about two
weeks ago he decided to accept
the invitation to speak after
looking more closely into the
program.

Chairman Lee lacocca says he is
worried about an upcoming vote
on an unpopular tentative
agreement reached two weeks
ago between the United Auto
Workers and the No. 3 auto
maker.
The union was expected to
announce T hursday its deadline
for a vote on the pact, reached
Sept. 16, which covers 91,000 ac
tive and laid-off workers.
Union leaders have delayed a
vote in an effoi\ to soothe the
gripes of disgruntled workers.
Union members at 52 locals
across the country must vote on
the contract before it goes into
effect.
lacocca admitted Wednesday
he is worried about the vote.
“Yes, I’m always worried,”
lacocca said. “I don’t think
there’s a great alternative to it

(the contract), though.”
Presidents of the locals and
shop floor chairmen will gather
Friday at Solidarity House for a
strategy session on selling the
contract.
Despite criticism from the
UAW, lacocca has persisted in
touting his company’s healthy
cash position.
lacocca, in an appearance be
fore the Women’s Economic
Club of Detroit, said the com
pany’s stash of $1 billion in cash
and marketable securities is the
most cash the automaker has
had on hand in its history.
“I’d tell the workers the best
insurance they can have is to
have some cash on hand,” lacoc
ca said.
UAW President Douglas
Fraser has criticized the chair
man’s optimistic statements.
The union blamed such remarks
for raising workers’ hopes about
what they could expect from
Chrysler in a new contract.
Many workers are unhappy
with the new pact, which in
cludes a one-year agreement
with wage hikes tied to future
Chrysler profits and restored
cost-of-living allowances.
lacocca noted the cash was
accumulated through the sale of
Chrysler Defense to General
Dynamics Corp.

warned.
The radiation from color
televisions made before 1970
may be affecting the eyes and
thyroids of young people who
spend two hours a day hunched
over their sets, the physicians
from Veterans Medical Center
in Washington reported in the
New England Journal of Medi
cine.
“Although it is generally
agreed the video display termin

Wrote, “field surveys of older
color television sets have indi
cated 1.33 to 16.2 percent of re
ceivers at some surface point ex
ceed 0.5 milliroentgens per
hour, which is the limit for emis
sion set by the Food and Drug
Administration Bureau of
Radiologic Health.”
Radiation intensity would not
be a problem at normal viewing
positions but people using mic
rocomputers or playing video
games tend to sit close to the dis
play screen.
