BLACK STUDENTS HOPE MARCH BOOSTS CAUSES

A coalition of black college students hopes to rekindle student movements of the 1960s with a march and rally here today, kicking off a week of events aimed at focusing the nation's attention on issues such as education and racism.

"The march is only the beginning of a five- to 10-year plan for organizations to come together," said Ural Hill, chairman of the National Collegiate Black Caucus, the principal sponsoring organization.

"If we are able to reclaim our communities from drugs" and successfully lobby Congress and the administration, Hill said, "that is when we will be able to measure our success."
