Early last month, Lane asked interested young people, who wished to volunteer their time and services to promote a de- cency rally, to contact him at his home. Response was so heavy that the University of San Diego Col- lege for Women's auditorium was used for a meeting. Preliminary plans were made by more than 70 representatives of area colleges. high schools and junior high schools.

A $75,000 grant from the Na- tional Institutes of Health Divi- sion of Allergies and Infectious Diseases will finance the study by the university's Biomedical Research Institute. Dr. William Pincus, one of the study team members, said the group will probe the trpe of in- jury that involves cell immuni- ty. "This type of injury is active in several diseases such as can- cer, multiple sclerosis and rhu- matoid arthritis," said Pincus. "It is also involved in the rejec- tion of grafts in animals and man, including heart trans- plants." The work will seek methods of inhibiting the action of toxic matter on human cells, methods that might eventually be used in disease treatment. Co-investigator of the grant will be Dr. Curt Spanis, chair- man of the university's College for Men's biology department. Pincus is laboratory dir ctor of the Biomedical Research In- stitute and is associate profe • sor in residence in biology at the university.
