San Diego County Coroner David
Stark said it was beyond his jurisdic
tional powers to send a coroner’s deputy
toMexico.
But later he said he would allow an
assistant, Dr. Frank Raasch, to aid
Mexican officials in the postmortem
“strictly as a private pathologist.”
The autopsy was approved by the
office of Massachusetts Attorney
General Francis Bellotti in a telephone
conversation with the Greens’ attorney,
William L. Ginsburg, Stark said.
Ginsburg had advised his clients not to
allow Chad’s body to be shipped to the
-United States until the cause of death
had been determined, apparently
fearing action in Massachusetts where
the Greens already face charges of
contempt of court for taking the boy to
Mexico.
Gisnburg had sought the approval of
Bellotti in the event that any court ac
tions stemmed from the death.

Group members in rights march
ByALETAOTT
Daily Collegian Staff Writer '
Seventeen members of Homophiles of Penn State joined
75,000 other participants in the first national march demon
strating united support for lesbian and gay rights last Sunday
in Washington, D.C.
The purpose of the march and the rally that followed was to
demonstrate support for ending all social, economic, judicial
and legal oppression of lesbian and gay people, according to
national organizers.
“There is a tremendous community between gay men and
women, and. that showed through,” Tim Frei, treasurer of
HOPS, said.
“Each of the 50 states was represented, along with many
national organizations, including the National Gay Task
Force, the National Organization of Women, and Parents of
Gays,” Frei said. / /
Frei alsd said many marchers carried banners and hand
held signs.
“The purpse of the banners was more to show the groups
represented. You had everything from gay social workers to
United Gay Mormons to the American Psychiatric
Association,” Frei said.
Former HOPS president Joshua Rubinstein said one of the
Court rejects money transfers
WASHINGTON (AP) - The Supreme
Court yesterday refused to legalize new
savers’ transactions adopted by
financial institutions, including
automatic savings-to-checking tran
sfers.
The justices left intact a lower court’s
ruling that existing federal law does not
permit Certain methods adopted by
banks, credit unions and savings and
loan associations.
The action, taken without explanation,
may soon be made irrelevant by
Congress. Legislation that would clearly
permit the new practices appears to be
near passage.
At issue were regulations by three
government agencies that oversee the
nation’s money market.
In late 1977, the National Credit Union
Administration Board authorized
federal credit unions to adopt “share
draft” programs that allow members to
withdraw money from their accounts by

signing a check drawn on the credit
union and payable through a bank.
But the Credit Union National
Association objected, charging that the
use of share drafts is not authorized by
law.
Last May, the Federal Reserve Board
and Federal Deposit Insurance Corp.
allowed federal banks. to offer their
customers automatic transfer of money
from savings to checking accounts.
The change was challenged by the
United League of Savings Associations
on grounds that it made possible the
paying of interest on checking accounts,
not authorized by any law.
Also last May, the Federal Home Loan
Bank Board allowed federal savings and
loan associations to establish “remote
service units,” which are off-premise
computer terminals through which
customers can make various tran
sactions, including withdrawals.

most frequently repeated messages of the march was that it
was a broad-based movement to include all minorities.
• “The thing about being gay is that it crosses all racial lines,”,
Rubenstein said. ■I
Rubinstein said more women participated in. this march'
than in past marches. A past element of some gay males;
parading dressed as females was absent from this march, he
said.
‘ HOPS President David Albert said, “A lot of speeches at the
rally were pretty much centered on the demands of the march,
on the oppression of gays and about the fact that this was the,
first national march and it showed a concentrated effort by a' 1
number of groups.”
Albert said he felt the march was more important than the
rally. Many supporters returned to line the streets and cheer
on other marchers after they reached the rally, he said.
While the march was definitely militant in terms of political
view, a broad spectrum of views from radical feminists to,
conservatives to socialists was represented, Albert said.
“It was a march for our freedom, a march to show that we
could bring in people from all over the country. It was a
political message mixed with a celebration of ourselves/’
Albert said.
