ADS ,, -
AMHERST, Mass. (AP) —Twenty
years after race riots tore up cities
and an assassin killed civil rights
leader Martin Luther King Jr., a rise
in campus racial incidents is shaking
some of the nation’s ivory towers.
“Even from our crude figures we
can see a tremendous increase in the
number of reports of racial incidents
in schools,” said Eva Sears of the
Center for Democratic Renewal, a
Ku Klux Klan watchdog group in
Atlanta.
“We’re not talking about juvenile
jokes here,” she said. “We’re talking
about something that can have a
horribly, horribly vicious outcome.”
The number of incidents logged
by the center hasjumped from 14 in
1985 to 56 last year, she said.
They range from racist jokes on a
talk show at the University of Michi
gan last year to alleged beatings of
black students by whites at the Uni
versity of Massachusetts in 1986 and
earlier this year.
Last spring, a caricature of a black
man with a bone through his nose
was drawn on a University of Wis
consin fraternity lawn.
At the University of Pennsylvania
last week, campus police maintained
round-the-clock protection for a
black activist who reportedly re
ceived death threats.
A school fraternity was ordered to
close for 18 months for sponsoring a
strip show in which white students
jeered black dancers.
In Massachusetts, some 40 mem
bers of minority groups at Hamp
shire College ended a nine-day take
over of a school building last week to
protest racism.
A similar takeover at the nearby
University of Massachusetts ended
late last month after meetings with
the school’s chancellor.
And more than 300 Dartmouth
students rallied in Hanover, N.H.,
last week to protest bigotry while po
lice guarded the offices of a conser
vative weekly publication that
launched stinging attacks on a black
professor.
Joseph E. Lowery, president of
the Southern Christian Leadership
Conference in Atlanta, said, “It was
just a matter of time before things
began erupting.
“I have sensed a smoldering,
growing distrust on campuses for a
number of years. I think emotions
have run from dissatisfaction to dis
gust and from disappointment to
outrage.”
Black leaders say recent racial un
rest is rooted in an apparent lack of
civil rights progress in the last two
decades.
Samuel L. Myers, president of the
National Association for Equal Op
portunity in Higher Education,
which represents 1 17 predominantly
black colleges, said, "We’ve come to
the 20-year anniversary of the riots
of 1967 and the assassination of Dr.
Martin Luther King and I think peo
ple are saying, ‘Wait a minute, things
naven’t improved for blacks,’ ”

91t3/9
DENVER (AP) — Investigators
holding hearings this week on the
crash of a Continental Airlines jet
that killed 28 people will be looking
at ice buildup on the wings, turbu
lence from another plane and inex
perienced pilots as possible causes.
Fifty-four other people were in
jured Nov. 15 when Flight 1713
flipped over while taking off from
Stapleton International Airport in a
snowstorm. The aircraft, a DC-9,
broke into three pieces as it slammed
into a runway.
Officials will question 29 witnesses
and survivors during a four day
hearing on the crash that begins
Tuesday. The investigation may also
look at fire and rescue operations
that followed the crash.
Engine failure has been ruled out
as a contributing cause in the crash,
NTSB spokesman Ted Lopatkiewicz
said Friday.
“There’s no evidence of malfunc
tion before the loss of control of the
aircraft,” he said.
The hearing will not be like a
courtroom case, Lopatkiewicz
stressed in an interview from Wash
ington.
“This is not an adversarial procee
ding,” he said. “It is to elicit informa
tion. There will be no finding at the
end of the hearing.”
A final report, he said, would
probably be released around the end
of the year. NTSB board member
Joseph T. Nall will be chairman of
the board of inquiry, on which three
other NTSB staff members will
serve, Lopatkiewicz said.
A technical panel of NTSB staff
members will conduct most of the
questioning, he said.
Witnesses, Lopatkiewicz said, in
clude survivors, air-traffic control
lers, members of the flight crew,
FAA representatives and rescue
crew members.
“We probably will be looking at
cold weather operations, de-icing
procedures, the performance of the
DC-9, flight crew training and
scheduling,” he said.
The crash of Flight 1713, which
trapped some of the victims in the
wreckage for more than six hours,
was the first involving commercial
fatalities at Stapleton in more than
26 years.
It occurred during Denver’s first
major storm of the season, which
dropped six inches of snow. With
winds gusting from the north at
more than 20 mph and snow whip
ping across the tarmac, officials
closed the east-west runway, putting
all departing and arriving traffic on
the open north-south runway.
Flight 1713, which originated in
Oklahoma City and whose destina
tion was Boise, Idaho, was 1 ’/a hours
behind schedule when it took off.
Since both the pilot and co-pilot
are among the dead, physical evi
dence and tape recordings must tell
the story of what happened to Flight
1713 as snow swirled across Runway
35-L.
Tapes show that within seconds
after the plane took off came the
sound of a stalling engine, an exple
tive, a bang, more engine stalling
and impact. But investigators said
there is no evidence that would point
directly to the cause of the crash.
Lopatkiewicz said examination of
the engines showed they were
thrusting at full power from the time
the jet took off until it crashed.
Both eyewitnesses and Richard
Shevell, a Stanford University aero
nautics professor who worked on
DC-9s, have questioned whether the
time between the de-icing and take
off — at least 23 minutes — allowed
ice to accumulate on the wings and
contributed to the crash.
