A. Iranian students at the MOSCOW, Idaho (AP) University of Idaho say they don,t know if the release of the 52 Amencan hostages will make their positions among students any better During an incident on campus last spring, several students assaulted an Iranian and subsequently set fire to drapes in his dormitory room. Before and since, Iranian students attendmg the school and nearby Washington State University have professed fears they would become victims of violence because of the hostage taking. Mohsen Mohsenisaravi, a forestry graduate student, said he wasnt sure if the Americans release by Iran would put Americans in a more friendly mood toward him. No Change Yet I dont know, Id have to wait to see. I havent seen any change of attitude in the last few days, he said. Another studfent, who asked not to be identified, said he didnt think attitudes would change. For me nothing will change. He said he had found personal support among members of the faculty and graduate students He said those members of the university community supported the Iranian hostage taking when told of actions of the U S government in Iran. Happy About Release Im personally happy at the release because 90 percent were only indirectly rather than directly involved with the spying, he said. He added, however, that he does not trust Amencan news accounts coming from Iran in most cases. H Paul Castleberry, a Washington State University political scientist, said the return of the hostages may force the United States to face some even thornier questions about its relationship with Iran The resolution of that problem will simply force us to face potentially nastier one. The question is what are we going to do to assure our oil supply from the Persian Gulf, said Castleberry. tj ..4 ALY WA 14 f M ei S . &Ji 'wm T "7 ? 1 I , H ' !$ .. .tV A. - , ".,4 , 'Mi- ?. - Ms 31 VV kb V V aV f 5.
