Janis appeared as scheduled on the UM Soccer Field along with Majester Ludi and an eye-catching light show. Joplin began wailing at 8:31 just as the temperature dipped into the upper thirties. Students were still trying to locate a choice seat on the damp and cold grass, as Janis grooved into her second song ‘‘Bo Diddly." Blankets, campfires, coats, and various other winter garments were being shifted around bodies until warmth and comfort was finally achieved. Halfway through Janis' fourth number, the audience had finally settled down to stop, look and listen. “This is terrible,” came a vorce from the rear. "I can’t believe it’s so cold,” she added. People were as concerned with keeping warm as with watching Janis sing. Sing she did along with her band and the cold night’s air set in closer and closer. ‘Try A Little Harder,” Janis said and went in to another song. By this time, more people had arrived and the parade began in front of those already seated. Positions shifted, blankets unwrapped themselves and Janis began another number. Technical facilites on the soccer field were not that bad, considering past concert sounds on the Union Patio. People were able to sit and listen instead of constantly walking around trying to hear and see what was going on. The night drifted on and on, and complaints of the cold increased. "If you think I’m going to take my clothes off, you’re crazy,” Janis had said at the start of her stint at the UM. Janis was cold, we were cold, and then it was all over. Janis began and finished her hit, “With A Little Piece of My Heart,” and the show ended. An abrupt finish under an even colder sky irked a lot of people, particularly those who had just arrived. USG President Jim Yasser was walking in front of the stage after its close. “She was only to play 45 minuter,’’ he said. And 45 minutes is just what Joplin played for. Students clapped, some shouted "more," and others just picked up their thermoses, blankets, candles and began drifting out onto San Amaro Drive. 4 Rf'ore On Page 13 —Photo by ALAN VOLLWEILLER Dr. Stanford Meets With High School Equivalency Program Students ... over unexplained dismissal of 2 HEP Program Dismisses 2 By CAROL COPIJVND Of Tht Hurricane Staff Approximately 30 HEP (High School Equivalency-pro-gram) students led by UM senior Otis Kitchen, vice-president of Miami Black Arts, met with President Stanford Friday to protest the dismissal of two HEP students. Stanford consented to see the group and also called in Dr. Butler, vice-president of student affairs. Kitchen, expressing the group’s grievances told Stanford that Kenneth Mencey and Pat Griffin were given one week to leave UM alter being thrown out of the program for no apparent reason. Stan'o-d emphasized to the group that he could do nothing about the situation unless it was first taken to H. Noval Jones, director of the program, and Dean Berry, from the School of Education. A meeting was scheduled for Monday when the group will meet with these men to discuss their grievances. The main demands of the students are: 1. a student government be set up to give the students more power. 2. more teachers are made available to the students. 3. they be allowed to take the GED (General Educational Development Tests) when they feel prepared. “We must be strong and determined to get what we want,” Kitchen said. “Dean Berry said that this is a dangerous situation and that the HEP Program could be stopped.” HEP, a government program, was started at UM in August, 1968. Students from underpriviledged homes as far away as Texas, are given the chance to get a degree equivalent to a high school degree. Room and board is given to the students, who must live in UM dorms, and they also receive a weekly $10 stipend. However, from what both teachers and students say, Continued on Page 6 200 Set Up House In W ashington Church By MELANI VAN PETTEN Of Th* Hurrlcant Staff Around 7 am people began to rise out of sleeping bags and blankets spread on the floor of the dining hall at St. Paul’s Epispopal Church. A stir began at the end of the room near the kitchen, where coffee, donuts and hot cereal were being served. Tha noise level rose as more people got up, and the large room came to life. A barefoot coordinator in a tee-shirt stood on a chair to announce, “anyone who wants to go for marshal training, they’re leaving at 11:30.” Perspective parade marshals began scurrying after coats and scarves. The 200 UM students staying at St. Paul’s had spread out across the second floor and the basement classrooms, along with contingents from Rutgers, University of Pennsylvania and Pennsylvania State. The first groups arrived Thursday evening and by Frl-day the church had taken on the appearance of a commune. Walking space in the dining hall was at a minimum with blankets, clothing and people covering the floor. On the first floor near the door, a blackboard for messages was set up near the telephone. A list of emergency phone numbers was also posted, with the warning, “If you get busted, everything will be taken from you; Write these numbers on your body or something else you won’t lose." People stood in groups, writing with magic markers on each other’s arms. In the kitchen, someone had brought in hundreds of pounds of onions and carrots to be made into soup for distribution at the massmarch. People sitting around the dining hall discussing the possibility of being tear gassed soon found themselves faced with a similar situation in the kitchen, peeling onions. Pots of soup bubbled overnight, and soup was served for breakfast to anyone who wanted it. About 8:30 Friday evening, a group of people came back from the SDS rally at Dupont Circle bringing enough tear gas in their clothes to start eyes watering. “SDS started it,” said one girl, as she piled the gas filled coats outside the basement door. “They were drunk.” They started throwing tear bombs at the cops.” T heard they blew up a cops’s cycle,” someone else said. “They were just asking for it," one insisted. “P.L. R.Y.M.-2, Weathermen, and right now all these splinter groups just want blood.” Upstairs, one boy was insisting there was no provocation Continued on Page 9 02020100535348485348230002015348484853535348482348485348235323485353485348534848534853535302000048535353484853532353485323484823535323485353535323484853534848485302010102010201000002010253234800014823232353482353015353482323484800010100014853484853485353484823484800
