00:00:01.560 - 00:00:24.520

Yes. Confront that question when I come to it. I don't know yet. I haven't had I don't have the reports as yet. I can't get I stayed with it till the end of the meeting. And it was extremely fruitful for me, at least running awful fast.

00:00:24.520 - 00:00:44.950

And one of the things I learned it was I don't know about this remark to deal with the problems and to report back presumably and hopefully not later than Thursday. Graham has had Francisco State be glad to and very much in favour, Dr Hayakawa. Yeah, I

00:00:44.960 - 00:00:59.660

get it to your coat. Yes, by all means. If you would wear this for the next several days to show, Did you approve of this program and hope that the situation on the campus will be taken care of shortly under his guidance? I think you're doing

00:00:59.660 - 00:01:17.190

a fine job, and I'm very proud. Thank you. Pass it on to your friends too. I will. Good. Come on. You are You're all alone. I'll be right out in front of your store. Hello, sir. Are you a native? Know? Valiant. You live in Marin County?

00:01:17.200 - 00:01:35.660

Yes. All right. I'd like to ask if you would wear a blue ribbon if you favor Dr Hayakawa in his program in San Francisco State. Good, I'm in favor of anything. I'm conducting a little blue ribbon campaign that can be done by private citizens if they

00:01:35.670 - 00:01:51.160

are in favor of his program. At 10 30 the Reverend Cecil Williams of Glide Memorial Church Assemblyman Willie Brown, other black leaders held a news conference at Ecumenical House across 19th Avenue from the campus. They pledged full support for the Black Student Union demand. We support

00:01:51.170 - 00:02:14.230

the demands on the aims of the Black Student Union, as represented by their 10 demands. It is all belief that the B. S you demands are reasonable. They speak directly to the need of black people for relevant education. They also reflect our conviction that black people

00:02:14.230 - 00:02:35.850

are best qualified to determine and define what meaningful education for blacks should be. We are disturbed by the reliance on police force to handle what should be nothing more than an educational issue. About that same time, another crowd was forming at the speaker's platform in front

00:02:35.850 - 00:02:52.820

of Commons. Police were all over the campus by the attack officers, motorcycle patrol units, sheriff deputies from two counties highway patrol officers, officers from the East Bay, all augmenting the campus police. The conference that Ecumenical had broken up by then Assemblyman Brown appeared briefly in front

00:02:52.820 - 00:03:10.990

of the library. Moments later, a large group of black students marched toward the speakers. Stand sound equipment was turned on in defiance of the new tough campus regulations and cries of pigs off campus and shut it down, fill the air. Several speakers addressed the gathering. Apparently

00:03:10.990 - 00:03:25.290

the students had felt that with well known local leaders on campus, they were immune from attack. But it didn't turn out that way. Mhm another sweep of the Commons, and there were more arrests. Cries of Don't run, don't run! Heard from the students. Some of the

00:03:25.290 - 00:03:42.740

students retaliated with chunks of bricks, bottles, whatever they could lay their hands on. A photographer was hit by flying shingle. It sounded like a coconut cracking open. The skirmishes continued for well over an hour, the various police units forming and reforming students chanting, screaming, moving in

00:03:42.740 - 00:03:57.660

to fill the areas as police moved out and there were more arrests. At one o'clock, there was a low, but it didn't last long the crowd reform tack units rushed the library steps. There were more arrests. A student identified as 22 year old AM Malone, a

00:03:57.660 - 00:04:13.820

grad student in the English lip, was bleeding badly from several head cuts. After the rush on the library was over, He was removed by stretcher under arrest for assault. In the same skirmish, a young police officer, rookie patrolman Paul Jewel, was struck down by a brick

00:04:13.830 - 00:04:27.680

thrown from close quarters. He appeared to be seriously injured, Sergeant Richard Will. It said he and two other officers, one of them Jewel. We're chasing a student armed with an iron pipe. When they were jumped by the crowd, Jewel was hit under the ear, breaking a

00:04:27.680 - 00:04:44.290

bone in the back of his neck. He was unconscious for about 15 minutes or several unexplained arrests. One man, tentatively identified as a faculty member, was picked up on a warrant issued yesterday. Cameramen and reporters were not attacked, but the scene was so hectic the movement

00:04:44.290 - 00:05:00.250

of students and police so rapid at times that it took artful dodging to avoid getting caught in the middle and hit by flying missiles or swinging sticks. At one point students began erecting a barrier in front of a cafeteria. Other students or perhaps plainclothes officers, moved

00:05:00.250 - 00:05:16.890

in to tear it down, and several fights broke out between students. The police moved in again. Several times. Police appeared to be moving off campus. But when the crowds moved back in and began a siege on the BSS building, again hurling whatever missiles came to hand,

00:05:17.230 - 00:05:37.720

the police were back on campus again. One of the missiles and metal lawn sprinkler broke through a window on an upper floor, injuring Dr Harry Freeman, director of the college foreign student program. He left in an ambulance with what were described as severe lacerations. At four

00:05:37.720 - 00:05:53.490

o'clock, Dr Hayakawa met with reporters. He admitted it had been a very tough day on campus to use his words for police, for students, for faculty, for everyone concerned. But he expressed cautious optimism that conditions on campus were improving, and he said it had been the

00:05:53.490 - 00:06:14.190

most exciting day of his life. It's pretty grim, but still I'm not completely, completely on optimistic about it. I think that tomorrow is another day and we've got to live through it. I don't like it at all. but I think it's necessary. Under present conditions, I

00:06:14.190 - 00:06:30.330

look for a reduction intention, but if there is no reduction tension, there'll be no reduction in the police force. But because I believe that some of the steam may have been blown off and we don't know until we see the circumstance of the way these are

00:06:30.330 - 00:06:48.950

sent to me by friends who this time you begin. No, not me to the city this time is my academic colleagues from this institution to have sent these to me. Following Dr Hayakawa is press conference professor Leo McClatchy, the president of the academic Senate, spoke briefly

00:06:48.950 - 00:07:08.120

with reporters. The academic Senate of San Francisco State College has met its regular meeting this afternoon. Much of the discussion was a deliberation on a motion which was introduced that the members of the Senate resigned, presumably on the basis that the individuals did not represent the

00:07:08.120 - 00:07:30.930

faculty. This was naturally, hotly debated. Finally, on a roll call vote four i 32 no and one abstention. Consequently, the Senate is still in session. The Senate then proceeded to approve procedures which had been recommended by the executive committee of the Senate. The deal with many

00:07:30.930 - 00:07:49.070

of the basic problems as quickly as we possibly can. President Hayakawa says that the tough tactics will continue. Classes will continue normally remaining open as usual, regardless of how much police force is necessary to accomplish this. Many on campus believe that he is taking the right

00:07:49.080 - 00:08:07.770

tact that eventually the leaders of the dissident factions will be removed from the campus and peace will be restored. Others are not quite so sure. It's as simple as that. This is Claude Man, reporting from San Francisco. There will be police action to protect the constitutional

00:08:07.770 - 00:08:25.060

rights of those who want to go to school as much as is necessary to protect those constitutional rights within whatever constitutional limitations there may be, it will be that kind of police action. We will not tolerate any abusive police action. You will not tolerate any overreaction,

00:08:25.740 - 00:08:40.850

however, in making that delicate judgment that sometimes has to be made as to what is overreaction and what is legitimate constitutional action. The bats are going to be resolved against those who are in the middle of a riot and who have the opportunity of getting out

00:08:40.850 - 00:09:05.780

of the way in any factual situation where it is clear that a policeman has overreacted or that the policemen has used more force than was necessary to effect an arrest. That's all. The job of policemen is to effect an arrest, not to mete out punishment. Now

00:09:05.780 - 00:09:18.240

I will grant you if if it is, if it is, if it isn't a conception to anybody that that police policeman ought not to be used on campus. It's a very, very sad thing that they have to be used. But those who should be blamed are

00:09:18.240 - 00:09:29.160

those who think they have a right to press their views with guns, with threats of guns, with rocks with animal blood or with broken bottles. Those are the people should be blamed for the for the riots.
