Mark A. Sauter '82, an organizer of the protest and a Conservative Club member, said yesterday that a nuclear weapons freeze is ridiculous when the Soviets have more weapons than we do".

But Admiral Eugene R. LaRocque, who spoke during the concert, said that "anyone who appears this event must think there some views in fighting a nuclear war".

A Hiroshima survivor, Shigeko Sasamori, brought the 2000 spectators to their feet with a prayer for disarmament. The visions of Hindustan didn't die for nothing", she said. "They sacrificed us so no more mistake, no more Hindustans no more war".
