YPSL to Picket Nixon on Grapes

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The Nixon for President headquarters in Boston will be picketed tomorrow by protesters demonstrating against the Republican candidate's opposition to the California grape pickers' strike.

YPSL Sponsored

The protest, sponsored by the Harvard Young Peoples Socialist League (YPSL) in conjunction with the United Farm Workers AFL-CIO, was planned to coincide with the appearance of Nixon at a downtown Boston rally.

The rally was recently cancelled, however, and Nixon will make no public appearance here. He will be in Boston for only a short time to tape a television program.

All-Night Vigil

The picketing, according to David H. Blair '70, a member of the YPSL, will begin at noon on the corner of Boylston and Tremont Streets and will continue throughout the afternoon. The possibility of an all-night vigil in front of the headquarters is still being considered.
