LIFE NOTE

26th Annual March For Life to Take Place in January

WASHINGTON—The March for Life will once again be held in the nation's capital on the anniversary of the Roe v. Wade Supreme Court decision, the 26th annual march will begin at noon on Jan. 22, 1999, according to Nellie Gray, president of National Right to Life.

The theme of the march will be “For What Shall It Profit A Man, if He Gain the Whole World, and Lose His Own Soul.” This topic will be reflected in the convention the day before, and also in the student essay, poem, and poster contests leading up to the march.

Quote of the day:

“To have people watch someone be killed, I think it's a low in journalism.”
