Hull, never summoned to appear before the Iran-contra committees, says he did talk to Walsh's investigators under a grant of limited immunity. Hull told them that in 1984 and 1985 he received $10,000 a month from Contra Leader Adolfo Calero to finance rebel support activities. Though he insists he answered the independent counsel's questions honestly, Hull is concerned that Walsh might try to indict him for perjury...
...students to commit acts of racial harassment with ever greater intensity until they find the limits of impunity" (The Crimson, October 13). Here at Harvard it is anti-racist and anti-imperialist protestors who are punished, while apartheid ministers like Duke Kent-Brown and contra murders like Adolfo Calero who are welcomed with open arms. Following last year's protest of arch-racist South African vice-consul Kent-Brown, 14 students were placed on probation.

Arias' fellow signers of the peace plan responded with delight. Arias is only the fourth Latin American in the prize's 86-year history to join the pantheon of peace laureates (the others: Argentina's Carlos Saavedra Lamas in 1936 and Adolfo Perez Esquivel in 1980 and Mexico's Alfonso Garcia Robles in 1982).

Duarte, on a three-day visit to Washington, lauded Arias' achievement several times during a State Department luncheon. "He wanted peace, not for himself," said Duarte. "He was thinking...

This may have left an impression that Law School and University officials did not take seriously the need for security for this event. Accordingly, it may be helpful for me to review briefly some of the steps directed toward making it possible for Mr. Calero to deliver his address at the Law School. These included the following...
...reference to the cancellation by Law School officials of Adolfo Calero's speech after a protester (Tufts senior Joshua Laub) tried to attack the contra leader, Orenstein states, "Such panicked reactions [to protests]... stifle free speech on campus." Such logic is unfortunately warped. If the owner of a private forum in which to speak removes that forum, that does not constitute a restriction of free speech. A physical attack upon one who is speaking, however, is a "stifling" of that individual's right to free speech, and hence responsibility for any reaction thereto lies with the attacker...
