Local Group to Protest Resumption
Of Atmospheric Nuclear Testing
A group of approximately 251
students and townspeople will;
participate in a passive demon
stration today "against the re
sumption of nuclear tests in the
atmosphere by the United States."
Arlene Shupak, spokesman for
the group, said last night.
The demonstration will be held
from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. in the
vicinity of Allen Street and Col
lege Avenue.
Placards and posters will be
'carried by some of the partici
tants, who dq not represent any
e particular organization, but
;are opposed to nuclear testing by ,
j any country, she said.
TH E DEMONSTRATION is
timed to coincide with the already
announced intention of the United
States to resume atmospheric
nuclear testing this week, she said.
The participants in the demon
stration will also distribute printed
material on their viewpoints of
nuclear testing and the present
'retaliatory power of the United
States •and the Soviet Union.
JOHN- R. JUBA. State College
chief of police, said yeßterday
there would be no interference
with the demonstration by local
policemen as long as the demon
strators "do not congregate in
such a way as to`block sidewalks
and hinder pedestrians and traf
fic."
A spokesman for the demon
strators :said the group believes
that nuclear testing in the atmos
phere is not necessary for de
fensive purposes, that U.S. testing
gives the Soviets an excuse to
test their weapons and this will
increase the pace of the
_arms
race.
