DUNOON, Scotland —(UPI) About 30 diehard anti-Polaris demonstrators set up a permanent camp on the shores of Holy Loch today to harass America's missile-carrying atomic submarines.
Anti-Polaris Group Hangs On
The campers erected tents and a 40-foot flagpole above the beach a couple of hundred yards from where the U. S. submarine depot ship Proteus is permanently moored. The atomic submarine George Washington lay alongside the Proteus today preparing for a two-month undersea patrol.
The anti-Polaris camp was set up by members of the Direct Action Committee Against Nuclear War, which organized demonstrations against the Proteus last weekend and launched canoes to try to board the ship.
They were beaten back by British police and U. S. sailors manning fire hoses.

To a senior waiting, for a waiting, world:
It has been said that every man's name appears in the papers at least twice. Once when he is born, and once when he dies.
It would indeed be sad if such was the only measure of existence; the entrance, and the exit. The reason for an infinity of suffering, and the history of all mankind lie between the extremes.
Some of us allow these "stage cues" to comprise our personal ultimate. Some, as yourselves, desire more. . . . "Ask not, how did he live, but, how, did he die"; in this case the poet was wrong.
As you complete your day of commencement and initiate matriculation into the college of the world remember what awareness of feeling, what beauty of knowledge you have been exposed to, . . . write a meaningful entity, between your absolutely lonely, "stage cues."
Congratulations on opening your mind, on learning some measure for value, and for completing your education.
It will ALWAYS have been worth it.
