TSU student leader airs dissent drive it, you can Protest march to downtown area set today "People will go to school where they want You just cant twist a white i kid's arm in Johnson dry and send him to Nashville. Wiseman can say 'GoF and hell say 'No, I don't want to go," Carr said In reference to US. District Judge Thomas A. Wiseman. Wiseman approved the existing set- tlement in Tennessee's higher education desegregation lawsuit Including a provision for increased white enrollment at TSU.

The new burst of campus activism is largely a response to the state Desegregation Monitoring Committee's approval Monday of a 61.3 white undergraduate enrollment goal for TSU, which now has a student body that Is approximately 70 black. Another source of anger for some students is the prolonged search for a TSU president at a time when many feel the school sorely needs permanent leadership. "We are displeased with the presidential search process, we are displeased with the Desegregation Monitoring Committee, we are displeased with the general attitude toward blacks in higher education in the state of Tennessee," Carr said. AMY CUTMAN Staff Writer State officials can set college desegregation goals to their hearts' content but they cannot tell a single student where to enroll, Tennessee State University's Student Government Association president said yesterday. Greg Carr, a TSU senior, is leading the student effort to keep historically black TSU a predominantly black Institution despite a federal court order that dictates increased white recruitment y7 "Look at what they're doing to us in the name of justice it's a joke," said Carr, addressing more than 300 students packed into a large campus meeting room last night.

Carr urged students to join a protest march scheduled for 10 a.ra today to the Legislative Plaza downtown. He said students probably will march down Charlotte Avenue and arrive at the plaza at about 11:30 to deliver a public statement "The goal is to get as many students as possible," Carr told the crowd last night "We are out there to prove we are the victims." His words apparently hit a responsive note with many students, who said they would, not have chosen TSU if not for its predominantly black student 'White universities tolerate black students, but they do not accept black students," said freshman LarrandoAl-exander. '7' Said freshman Edward Davis: "The family at TSU refuses to let a great black institution become a meager white Institution.

"The school is just here to welcome whoever wants to come." Carr said state officials should leave TSU alone, despite the federal court order that calls on TSU to re? emit whites, as predominantly white public colleges and universities seek a greater black presence.

The couple has until Sept 29 to pro-t duce copies of their marriage license and Tony Alamo's divorce decree from his former wife, a California clothier who claims her divorce was never completed. "As soon as they comply with my order, we can set a final hearing," O'Hanlon said. RENEE VAUGHN Staff Writer 7 A West Virginia judge says he's had enough of the Tony Alamo custody case and would like to retreat from the six-month battle over the children of Alamo's new wife "I have asked to be removed from the case for personal reasons," Cabell County Circuit Judge Don O'Hanlon, a Roman Catholic said yesterday. Although Alamo has never directly requested that O'Hanlon recuse himself from the case, the anti-Catholic evangelist has accused the judge in widely distributed religious tracts of having a religious bias in the case. "If they put a good, non-Catholic judge on the case and he reviews what I did and the reasons for my actions, maybe he Alamo will believe what I did was based on the law and not on my religion," O'Hanlon said; Alamo is founder of the Alma, Alamo Christian Church, which operates a number of businesses including the Alamo clothing store on Lower Broadway in Nashville.

Antioch attorney's suspension argued Antioch attorney Pat Nlchol should receive more than a three-month suspension of his law license for misusing a client's funds, Tennessee's lawyer discipline board has said in a lawsuit The Tennessee Supreme Court's Board of Professional Responsibility said, in a suit filed in Chancery Court, that a three-lawyer panel which heard a complaint against Nlchol in July did not impose "sufficient discipline." That panel, composed of attorneys John Conners James Summers and Ruth Kinnard, found Nichol "engaged in conduct involving deceit and misrepresentation" by failing to notify a client Sally Coker, that he had received $1,558 for the estate of Coker's late husband. The panel found that Nlchol converted the money to his own use. 7 Nichol said he paid the disputed funds to Coker "as soon as she met me' IBeaD Slypes and under including 3d SityDe att TO" also the IBiuttciniwcctil in (Dnm Mmmm BrDiLDPs 'UJ al ell (Tlhierry face to face." Divorce case story named 5i wrong lawyer It was incorrectly reported In yesterday's editions of The Tennesseap that attorney Mary Frances Lyle represented Robert Wilfred SimpsoSi at his divorce trial in Davidson County Probate Court in 1981 The Tennessee Supreme Court ruled recently that Probate Judge Jim Everett erred when he refused Jo grant Simpson's wife a divorce, because of Simpson's claim that he was insane. Attorney Gary Gober represented Simpson at the trial, and Lyle pursued the case for Simpson on appeaL The Supreme Court accepted Lyle's argument that Insanity should continue to be a defense against divorce suits, but ruled nevertheless against Simpson. Attorney R.

Horton Frank HL who represents Martha Ann. Zeliff Simpson, had argued that his client was titled to a divorce, despite her husband's claim of insanity. Frank maintained that insanity should no longer be considered a bar to divorce. The Supreme Court held that Robert Simpson "wholly failed to carry the burden of provingfat trial that the many acts of cruelty he Simpsonj committed over that 10-year period were committed when, as a result of mental illness, he lacked the capacity to appreciate the wrongfulness of his conduct or the volition to control his actions." Gober said yesterday he feels he proved at trial that Robert Simpsonjii Marine Corps veteran who has been diagnosed as a paranoid schizophrenic, is "a very disturbed man." The Supreme Court granted Martha Simpson, 34, a divorce from Robert Simpson, who is 43, on grounds of Cruel and inhuman treatment The Tennessean regrets the error and is happy to set the record straight 4lPter 7 Ways (Padded 'Pails r-To Euy ttre ntm ViU OtKW MasmCvd Uyi-r American 900iyiSma Eipreu ttCaih FmanemgAMtable NO DOWN MOMENT Payments as to ts Sttamonth.
