What is the error? I don't get it.

The normal declaration should be :
HEADER "AREA^|PERIMETER^|POPPLACE_^"
But this not work I've open bug 
http://bugzilla.maptools.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1422 to fix that. In the 
mean time, simply put a title in the header 
"AREA^Area|PERIMETER^Perimeter|POPPLACE_^Population"

How did you define the copyright layer? Normally you should only need to do:
  LAYER
    NAME "copyright"
    TYPE annotation
    STATUS ON
    TRANSFORM OFF
    CLASS
      COLOR 0 0 0
      TEXT "Copyright text"
      LABEL
        FONT "sans"
        TYPE TRUETYPE
        POSITION LR
        OFFSET 0 0
        SIZE 8
        BUFFER 1
        COLOR 0 0 0
        BACKGROUNDCOLOR 255 255 255
        FORCE TRUE
      END
    END
  END

You can create a new metadata in your layer ("legend_title" "ttt") and 
access it in the legend template.
[metadata name=<metadata_field_to_display>]
See:
