Vietnam veteran Ron Phillips speaks at an EMU courtyard rally Friday, commemorating the United States' withdraw! Irom the Vietnam War. Hundreds rally against draft About 400 people rallied in the EMU courtyard Friday afternoon, commemorating the seventh anniversary of the Unites States' withdrawal from Vietnam — and calling for “no more draft " “Why is there no uproar?” Vietnam veteran Ron Phillips asked the crowd "Why aren't there voices asking Why?' Why aren't there people saying, No more?' ” Those who started the Vietnam War are the ones trying to forget it, said Phillips, his voice breaking several times "Now they want to do it all again " "Some people say we have no memory of Vietnam," said Christina Cowger of the Coalition Opposing Registration and the Draft "But that's not true I think this rally today shows that people do remember, and they don't want it to happen again " Draft counseling is becoming more important as the government begins to prosecute unregistered men, she said Between 600,000 and 700,000 eligible men have not signed up, Cowger estimates But the fear of prosecution may be greater than the actual threat, she added. “Only a handful of people will be prosecuted. And they’ll be used only as examples,” Cowger said The White House is a threat to peace, said Marion Malcolm of Clergy and Laity Concerned. "I only hope that the spirit that ied us into the Indochina wars will not spread to El Salvador, the Mideast and Europe," Malcolm said Pres Ronald Reagan has a “good guy, bad guy Hollywood mentality,” she added. “It is dangerous, and it is no joke.” The rally — sponsored by CORD and OSPIRG — opened with "Where Have All the Flowers Gone” and "We Shall Overcome,” songs made popular during protests in the late 1960s. Those interested in draft counseling can call CORD at 485-4611.
