Moratorium Includes Read-In,
'No Christmas As Usual' Concert

With the massive Moratorium of last
month now history, plans have been
finalized for the December Moratorium
which will be held at the University
tonight.

Activities organized by the Virginia
Mobilization Committee to End the War
in Vietnam will be held tonight and will
include a 'Read-In' for Peace and a 'No
Christmas As Usual' Peace Concert.

The 'read-in' will feature a collection
of readings on the nature of war and
peace and will begin at 7 in the Rotunda.
Anyone with a relevant reading may
participate in the program.

While the 'read-in' is in progress, the
Mobilization Committee will provide post
cards for anyone wishing to send a peace
message to President Nixon.

Following the 'read-in,' a 'No
Christmas As Usual' Peace Concert will
be held at 8:15 in the Ballroom of
Newcomb Hall. Folk singers and a local
rock combo, the Wide Load, will provide
entertainment for anyone who wishes to
come.

The national dates for the moratorium
this month are December 12, 13, and 24.
Students can participate in activities
elsewhere this weekend and are
encouraged by the Virginia Mobilization
Committee to set up activities in their
home towns for December 24.

Anyone desiring information on how
to arrange home town activities should
see Steve Squire or Chuck Wheeler,
co-chairmen of the Virginia Mobilization
Committee.
