Gandhi continued from page 1A to the message itself.” Associate professor of music Robert Kyr organized the event, which he said is an opportunity for people to explore the concept of peace in a new way. ‘‘Having just completed a centu ry filled with war, there is no bet ter time to focus on a new direc tion,” Kyr said. “This theme relates to the striving for peace in one’s own life, community, region, nation and throughout the world.” Kyr said people should not un derestimate the ability of the arts to mend severed borders and ideolo gies. “When music brings us into the ‘right relationship’ with one anoth er as musicians and audience (( Having just completed a century filled with war, there is no better time to focus on a new direction. Robert Kyr associate professor, music n members, then peace is being waged,” he said. “Whenever the theme of the work is related to peace itself, then even more so.” Kyr’s honors orchestra will per form his Symphony No. 9, “The Spirit of Time,” from 8 to 10 p.m. at the Silva Concert Hall in the Hu It Center for the Performing Arts. The combination of music and speech on a scale of this magni tude is rare, said Lori O’Hollaren, project coordinator for the Savage Endowment for International Rela tions and Peace, which arranges educational speeches and work shops by international figures. “You learn so much more about how music makes a statement,” she said. “My phone has been ring ing off the hook with people want ing to find out more about this.” Election continued from page 1A Republicans, meanwhile, re leased federal court affidavits from at least five witnesses who contend they watched earlier hand re counts in Palm Beach County this week and observed irregularities and possible ballot tampering. “I personally observed Canvass ing Board counters ‘twisting’ and otherwise manipulating the paper ballots in an attempt to dislodge chads from the ballots them selves,” Mark P. Klimek, an observ er of the Palm Beach County hand re-count, wrote in an affidavit. As for the state Supreme Court ruling, Judge Charles Burton, a member of the Palm Beach County canvassing board, said it did not appear to cover the underlying question of whether the results of the hand counts must be rolled into the official vote totals. (( There is no legal impediment to the re-counts continuing. Florida Supreme Court The issue has been simmering for several days but was given new urgency by Harris’ decision that ballots re-counted after last Tues day would not matter. Democrats urged the justices to rule quickly because counties didn’t know if they should keep counting. Gore’s chief lawyer, David Boies, interpreted the ruling as a signal to Harris that she shouldn’t ignore the late tallies. “I think it’s very unlikely that the Florida Supreme Court would have directed that these counts go for ward if all they meant to do was pre serve these votes for history,” Boies said. Separately, a state judge heard Core’s argument Thursday that Harris ought to count the late tal lies in her final total. That final to tal will determine which candi date captures Florida’s 25 Electoral College votes and thus, almost cer tainly, the White House. Circuit Judge Terry Lewis, a De mocrat, will not rule until Friday morning at the earliest on Gore’s request to indefinitely extend the deadline for counties to submit re vised counts. to Conquer We Stoops UNIVERSITY % THEATRE 17, N obinson Theatre ov. 3, 4, 9, 10, 11 \ 18-8 pm ov. 12- 2 pm Sunday is a Benefit fd: Habitat for Humanity $15 @ 741-170: It of O Tix: 346-4363 UT Box Office: 346-4191 Csmle News' ML — poppi*/— _y4n&4olia.
