Seabrook

The cause: stopping the growth of nuclear power. The place: Seabrook, New Hampshire. The players: 1,400 demonstrators from New England and beyond - 35 of them from the College.

The debate over the pros and cons of nuclear power has spread far beyond the chain-link fence surrounding the Seabrook construction site near Portsmouth. So has the debate over the protest itself, a combined crusade-civil disobedience which caused many to endure Governor Thomson's hospitality for two weeks, but few to regret it.

The talk among the 27 students, six staff members, and two faculty members who went to Seabrook was all for bail solidarity before the protest. "A large percentage of people are ready to stay indefinitely," John Jennings '77 said.

So what made protesters like Lincoln Hess '78 bail out after one and a half weeks in confinement? "I had other things to do," he explained. "My course work was a prime consideration. And I felt I could do more to help my friends from this side."

A group of 13 alumni Aires returned to Hanover Green Key weekend to give the un-dergraduates a run for their harmony at Spring Sing. Ranging in class from '49 to '61,they engaged in musical duel with the Dartmouth Aires, the Woodswind, the RadcliffePitches, and the Princeton Footnotes.
