The Harvard-Radcliffe Friends of the United Farm Workers (HR-UFW) held a continuous showing of two films, "Testimony: Justice vs. J.P. Stevens" and "Target, J.P. Stevens," yesterday in the Science Center lounge in an effort to educate the Harvard community about the reasons for the ongoing boycott of J.P. Stevens.

The HR-UFW has recently shifted its emphasis from the farm workers' movement to the Stevens boycott, following the UFW's national policy.

Roger Wallach '79, chairman of the HR-UFW, said yesterday HR-UFW, said yesterday HR-UFW showed the films in an effort to mobilize more students for their protest in Central Square on March 18, and for the up-coming New England-wide rally on April 19.

The films persuaded some students to support the boycott. Steven M. Princiotta '79 said he was "really surprised that a company could get away with these violations of national labor law."
