University revokes action to expel 6 students over anti-U.S. ral

NAHA, Japan - Isamu Kogachi, 75, smiles during a press conference on Aug. 17 after the University of the Ryukyus revoked -- after 51 years -- its action to expel him and five other students for engaging in an anti-U.S. rally in Okinawa when it was under U.S. control. The university said in rescinding its decision, ''It was an action taken after an adamant request by the U.S. Civil Administration,'' which was ruling the islands collectively known as the Ryukyus.
