4 Students Die
At Kent State
KENT, Ohio UP)— Four stu
dents in a crowd pelting National
Guardsmen with bricks and rocks
were shot to death at Kent State
University Monday when the
troops opened fire during an anti
war demonstration. Two of the
dead were coeds.
Adj. Gen. S. T. Del Corso said
troops began firing semiauto
matic rifles after a rooftop sniper
had shot at them.
Four other students were crit
ically wounded, and eight other
persons, including two guards
men, were taken to hospitals.
One of the guardsmen was
treated for exhaustion and the
other for shock.
The campus and the town of
Kent were sealed off after the
shootings, and school officials
ordered the faculty, staff and
19,000 students to leave.
A spokesman said about 300
foreign students and staff re
mained on campus Monday night.
Patrols of armed troops and
state police roamed the campus
and blocked all entrances.
Buses took the students to
public transportation facilities in
nearby Akron and Cleveland.
Akron State University stu
dents were organizing a rally for
downtown Akron Monday night
to protest the shooting.
Gov. James A. Rhodes called
for FBI help in investigating the
disorders.
In Washington, President Nix
on issued this statement:
“This should remind us all
once again that when dissent
turns to violence it invites
tragedy.
“It is my hope that this tragic
and unfortunate incident will
strengthen the determination of
all the nation’s campuses, admin
istrators, faculty and students
alike, to stand firmly for the
right which exists in this country
of peaceful dissent and just as
strongly against the resort to
violence as a means of expres
sion.”
The shooting came after a
force of 100 guardsmen, their
supply of tear gas exhausted,
were surrounded by about 400
demonstrators. The troops had
followed the demonstrators from
a rally on Kent State’s Commons
area near the football practice
field.
Guard spokesmen estimated
that 900 to 1,000 persons had
been involved in the demonstra
tion at the Commons.
Gene Williams, 21, a junior and
a member of the student news
paper staff, said he was seeking
refuge in a building when he saw
the troops turn “in unison, as if
responding to a command,” and
fire into the crowd.
Bullets recocheted off the walls
beside us and student fell to the
ground to avoid them,” Williams

said in a copyrighted story in the
Dayton Journal-Herald.
“A coed fell 15 feet in front of
the men into the arms of a male
student. A bullet had gone into
her neck and lodged there.”
He said he saw another youth
shot in the chest.
“I saw no snipers nor did I
hear any shots until the line
of troops turned in unison and
opened fire,” Williams said.
Del Corso, the adjutant general,
said guardsmen were forced to
open fire.
“A lot of people felt their lives
were in danger,” said Brig. Gen.
Robert Canterbury, who was on
the scene, “which in fact was the
case and the military man always
has the option to fire if he feels
his life is in danger.”
“He has the right to protect
himself.”
Del Corso said tear gas was
used several times in attempts to
disperse the crowd.
“The guard expended its entire
supply of tear gas and when it
did, the mob started to move for
ward to encircle the guardsmen,”
Del Corso said. “At the same
time, a sniper opened fire against
the guardsmen from a nearby
rooftop. All guardsmen were hit
by rocks and bricks.
“Guardsmen facing almost cer
tain injury and death were forced
to open fire on the attackers.
University President Robert I.
White asked all students, faculty
and staff members to go home
“as quickly as possible.”
Twelve persons, including two
guardsmen ,were hospitalized in
Ravenna and Akron. One guards
man was described as suffering
from shock.
Hospital officials identified
three of the dead as William
Schneider, Jeffrey Miller, Allison
Krause. The fourth person was
an unidentified girl.
Miller, 20, was from Plainyiew,
N. Y., and the Krause girl, 19,
from Pittsburgh, Pa.
“I don’t know where the first
shot was from,” said Gen. Canter
bury. He said he was with guards
men but heard no order to fire.
“They started pelting every
one with bullets,” said Mary
Hagan, a student who witnessed
the shooting. She said some stu
dents fell and others remained
standing. They shouted that the
shots were blanks, she said.
Miss Hagan said she heard
one guardsman issue a cease-fire
order which halted the firing.

Editor:
I am a veteran. During my
tour of duty in the military,
servicemen were blessed with two |
pay raises, each about a year
apart. Both times within about
a month or two of the pay raises
there was a notable hike in rent
and commissary food prices.
Recently veterans were given a
welcomed boost in their Veter
ans Educational Assistance. But
now we are faced with the very
unwelcomed sounds of “needed
raise in college tuition”. But
this not only affects veterans
but anyone struggling financially
to keep up with college costs.
There are probably many
“needs” in the Texas college sys
tems that require more funds,
but as I look around at some of
the inappropriate spending at
some colleges I wonder.
I may be whistling in the
wind. But I appeal to anyone
: with my views on this issue to -
join with me in asking for stu
dent strength to try and quell
this new grasp at our pocket-
books.
Perhaps even our student sen
ate can voice our appeal.
