DMR 8/6/71 Photograph with caption: An Unusual Iowa City 'Cemetery' Frank Leone, a University of Iowa student and member of Christians Affirming Life, places a cross on the lawn in front of Old Capitol on the U of I campus in Iowa City Thursday. The symbolic cemetery set up with university permission on the day of the national draft lottery served as a "way to make people think" about the draft and the war, said Leone. The crosses represent the people dyding in Southeast Asia. STORY: Page 3.
