FACELESS PROTESTERS -- Iranian students of Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti hide their faces from the cameras as they picket Friday in front of Ann Arbor City Hall. The picket line was to support their demand that charges be dropped against one of their number, Mohamed Moghadum, 19, of Ypsilanti, who was arrested one month ago on the University of Michigan campus under a little-known state law which makes it a crime to wear a mask during a public demonstration. The Iranian students say they must hide their identity to protect themselves and their relatives from retaliation by the Shah of Iran's secret police.
