Students demonstrate against
Korean president’s trip to Japan

SEOUL, South Korea — Thou
sands of rock-throwing students
clashed with police earlier this week,
damaged a Japanese cultural center
and a police station in a protest
against President Chun Doo Hwan’s
“sellout” visit to Japan, witnesses
said.
No injuries were reported at the
campus of Korea University and in
downtown Seoul where students
demonstrated against the presi
dential visit on the grounds that Ja
pan had not made proper restitution
to Koreans following 36 years of co
lonial rule that ended with the Japa
nese defeat in World War II.
Chun’s Japan trip is schedtded for
Sept. 6-8.
Helmeted riot police fired tear gas
to disperse some 2,000 rock-hurling
students from 13 campuses who
demonstrated for 15 minutes at Ko
rea University, a private institution
in the eastern part of the South Ko
rean capital.
In a resolution adopted before the
rally, the students said: “We strongly
demand the cancellation of Chun’s
sellout trip to Japan.”
The resolution contended that
Chun’s Japan trip, the first by a
South Korean president, is humiliat
ing because Japan has not repented
enough for what it did to Korea dur
ing its colonial occupation.
Two hours later in downtown
Seoul, students tossed rocks and
sticks at a Japanese cultural center,
breaking about 30 windows, police
said.
The students also hurled rocks at
Chongro police station, about 30
yards from the Japanese cultural
center, breaking several window
panes.
“It happened in an instant ... and
there was no time to arrest any of the
students ... several window panes
were broken,” a Chongro police offi
cer said.

GLOUCESTER, Mass. — The
great whale surged skyw'ard, par
tially spinning his 40-ton body and
crashing back into the sea while his
colleagues playfully raise their huge
tails and smacked the water with
their flippers.
Oblivious to the audience of scien
tists and students, the massive mam
mals roared eeks in the tropical re
gion of Atlantic shallows called the
Silver Bank where the whales mate
and give birth to their calves.
For seven years, George Nichols, a
retired professor of medicine from
Harvara Urfiversity, has been taking
researchers and students on unfor
gettable adventures, following the
rare whales once almost driven into
extinction by iron harpoons.
“They’re wonderful animals,”
Nichols said. “Despite their size
they’re really quite gentle. There’s a
kind of innocence about them.
“No other vessel is dedicated to
whale research 100 percent of the
time,” Nichols said of the 76-year-
old Regina Maris, a Danish-built
ship operated by the Ocean Re
search and Education Society Inc.,
which Nichols directs from Glouces
ter, Mass., when he’s not at sea.
Through a precise system of pho
tographing the markings on the tail
flukes, Nichols and other research
ers have identified 3,000 whales.
“The identification is as reliable as
fingerprints for human beings,”
Nichols said, adding that the photo
graphs are filed, catalogued and
computerized at the Gollege ol the
Atlantic in Bar Harbor, Maine.
Nichols estimates some 15,000
humpback whales romped through
the Atlantic Ocean before the mod
ern whaling period early in the cen
tury. Their numbers dwindled dras
tically before international
agreements stopped the slaughter in
1966.
Despite diligent tracking by Nich
ols and other scientists, much about
the humpbacks — named for the roll
of their backs in a dive — remains a
mystery.
There are the complex “songs”
humpbacks can detect more than 25
miles underwater, the failure of any-
