The case follows two other reports of sexual assaults publicized extensively in eastern Massachusetts.
ON MARCH 6, A 21-year-old woman said she was gangraped on a pool table in a New Bedford tavern for two hours while patrons cheered. Six men await trial in the case. The woman has also filed a $10 million damage suit.
Six Boston men were charged with rape and kidnapping this month for allegedly assaulting a 17-year-old woman in an apartment in Boston's Charlestown section. The woman told a grand jury she was repeatedly raped after being picked up in the bus station, with text of a loan for her bus fare home.
Police spokesman Nancy Taylor said officials were searching for another man in connection with the Ayer incident.
The woman, who reportedly blacked out and vomited in the bus, "was doing pretty well by Sunday," Taylor said.
"She was in this morning and we had a long in-depth interview," Taylor said, "she's doing much, much better, but she didn't sleep well and is still very tired."
POLICE SAID THE ATTACK on the woman allegedly occurred after the woman got on the band's remodeled rack and the parking lot of a nightclub at 2 a.m.
The woman, whose identity is not being released, told officials she was stripped of her clothing and raped several times before she was dropped in a field. She called police from a motel and was rushed to Nashoba Community Hospital where she was treated for bruises and scratches.
MacDonald said the woman was offered a ride home after she became separated from a companion. She had attended the band's show the night before after getting a pass to leave the Army base.
Ronald J. Bellanti, Jr., whose production firm manages Grand Slamm, said whatever happened in the bus did not involve forced sex, Bellanti, who was not on the bus, said he was told by the accused that the woman voluntarily went aboard the bus and acted in a provocative manner.

"They are being asked questions they have never faced before," he said, "and their beliefs are being challenged by society and by others.
"I WOULD LIKE TO SEE MORE creative challenges for our youth. They are now being challenged with questions from people who don't see the value of religious belief and don't understand its importance."
The Rev. Rachael Hanson, associate pastor of Trinity Lutheran Church, 1245 New Hampshire St., said that although today's youth might be more critical than previous generations, they also more religiously active.

The Rev. David Hallenbeck, pastor of the Lawrence Quaker Friends Church, 1901 New Hampshire, said his congregation of about 120 included about 15 college students. He said that today's youth were more intelligent than previous generations in some ways and more naive in others.
"The youth are now more drawn to the cults," he said, "and they end up worshiping another human being instead of the spiritual being."
a young person's intellectual development, he discovers his own religious traditions."
THE QUAKER CHURCH, WHICH is now referred to as the Religious Society of Friends, was established in Lawrence in 1869.
He said that although the Quaker Church's religious restrictions were more conservative than those of other religions, the church's youth understood the reasons behind them and usually acted accordingly.
The church prohibits the consumption of alcohol, tobacco and dancing among other things, Halenbeck said.
"Some of the young couples dance and others do not," he said. "We try to
encourage the young kids to find something to do on their dates that is more peaceful."
Charlotte Leininger, Haviland senior and a member of the Friends Church, said she received many letters from her when she mentioned her religion
"I've had people believing that my dad owned Quaker Oats," she said. "Others have asked if I was going to go to college." The friends call me their 'tokenuck'
TIMOTHY MILLER, A LECTURER of religious studies at the University of Kansas, said today youth's critical look at religion was nothing new and was probably expected of youth.
"The students from strict religious backgrounds tend to rebel in college when they are away from their school," said it. "Sure, a part of growing up."
Miller said the average college student was not greatly affected by cult movements.
"The cults don't usually last long," he said. "When the leader dies, the cult is usually quick to follow."
