It was a gloomy Saturday morning in San Diego. The kind that the Chamber of Commerce would r ather forge t. Rain threatened. It was a morning for sweaters and overcoats---a morning to hit the books instead of the beach. It was hardly a morning one wou ld pick for a stroll down the boulevards of San Diego, ye t pedestrian traffic was at an all time high. Marching down city s treets i s usually reserved for New Year's Day or Mother Goose Parades. There were no high school bands with high stepping, baton twirling coeds or law e nforcement reserve units c linging desperately to spirited palominos. An old red bus with a rock group wailing away on top served as the grand marshalL There was no queen. It wasn't r eally a real parad e .

Not hard, just drizzling. Most of the crowd remained throughout the afternoon. The spirit of peace had not been dampened.

By now you realize what I'm getting at. Whether o r not you are for the immediate withdrawal of United States troops from Vie tnam, the Saturday morni ng Peace March through the s treets of San Diego to the Balboa Park Peace Rally was an interesting and moving display of political sentiment. Not only was it interesting and moving, it was orderly and, as the name implied, peaceful. The San Diego Union estimated the marching crowd at more than 5,000. It seems that 7,000 was more like it. most of the marchers were college age, many were middle-age or older. One elderly couple, well into their seventies, flashed the peace sign at marchers from a bus bench on 5th s treet. When asked to join the march, the y happily joi ned in. Signs flashed peace messages and sporadic songs and chants kept the crowd in good spirits. "All we · are s aying is give p eace a c hance . " "Peace, now. " "Peace, now. " • s ave live s not pride. " T he rally at the park began e arly in t he afternoon a nd as the foot - weary travle rs parked on the sloping turf, Citizen 's 'VIobilization Committee Chairman Bob Goldman, welcomed the group and e xplained the groundwork. "We are here for peace, we are here for love. There will

They are presently itemi zing their needs and requests which will be turned into their assistant Dean of instruction.
