A coalition of anti-nuclear, and community action groups plan to demonstrate Saturday when President Carter attends the John F. Kennedy dedication at the University of Massachusetts (UMass).

The coalition, which includes the Student Coalition Against Nukes, the Clamshell Alliance, and Boston Fightback, hopes to persuade Carter to freeze gas prices and back an energy program that does not include nuclear energy.
