s Friday, November 17, 1972 College Station, Texas Page 3 THE BATTALION Two Blacks Killed At Southern University BATON ROUGE, La. bT)—Two young black men were killed Thursday on the Southern Uni versity campus during a day of protests that began with a stu dent takeover of the administra tion building and included a fire in the registrar’s office. Raymond Potter, administrator at Earl K. Long Hospital where one of the victims was taken, said a coroner’s report showed that the unidentified victim died of a shotgun wound. An official denied that any of the estimated 200 police on hand fired any weapons at the students other than tear gas canisters. Gov. Edwin Edwards activated a 700-man National Guard bat talion soon after the violence but did not immediately order any troops onto the campus. The guardsmen were gathering at an airport about one mile from the campus. ^ Small groups of students sat and stood around on the campus and a crowd of them watched firemen extinguish a blaze which caused an undetermined amount of damage at the registrar’s of fice about two hours after the confrontation at the administra tion building. The university was closed and all students except those who live on campus in dormitories were or dered home. Accounts pieced together by au thorities indicated the trouble be gan when students, who have been demanding a greater voice in col lege affairs, took over the ad ministration building. Another crowd of students, estimated by police at 2,000, gathered outside the building. Police ordered the students to move and, according to officials, a tear gas grenade was fired from the crowd at the officers. The students started throwing things and police responded with tear gas. “Nobody shot one round,” Sher iff A1 Amiss of East Baton Rouge Parish County told the governor, who rushed to the campus. “We didn’t use anything but tear gas,” Amiss said. In an interview after the area around the administration build ing had been cleared, Amiss said, “We heard two pistol shots, shots from a pistol that came from the crowd.” He said of the victims: “It look ed like they were trampled. Their faces were all swollen.” The violence occurred at about the same time Edwards was tell ing the State Board of Education in a downtown office building that he was giving up efforts to negotiate with disgruntled stu dents at the campus here and at a branch campus in New Orleans. All was reported quiet at the New Orleans campus, where stu dents ended a nine-day occupa tion of that administration build ing exactly one week ago in an agreement worked out with Ed wards. A girl who answered the tele phone in the office of the presi dent of the Baton Rouge cam pus during the student takeover of the administration building said as many as 2,000 students had gone to the building to talk to the president. At issue, she said, was the con tinuing controversy over requests for student control of academic affairs and the resignation of the heads of both campuses. The con troversy began at the Baton Rouge campus in mid-October and brought the arrests of several earlier this week on charges of disrupting classes. Rainfall High Here In October Bryan and College Station had above average rainfall for the third month in a row in October, bringing the 1972 total into the ballpark for a near normal year. The year was running drier than normal until August. With last month’s 3.95-inch average for the Carter’s Creek catchment area, the cities are about eight inches short of the Brazos County annual average, 38.76 inches. Normal rainfall for October is three inches.

Texas State Credit Pawn Shop 1014 Texas Ave., Bryan Weingarten Center WASHINGTON (A?)—The Unit ed States moved quickly Thursday to arrange negotiations with Cu ba to curb the hijacking of air liners. The two countries have not held substantive talks on any matter since they broke relations in 1961. In an afternoon meeting, Sec retary of State William P. Rog ers asked Swiss Ambassador Fe lix Schnyder to convey to Cuba the United States’ desire to push ahead “toward some agreement in the most expeditious and ef fective manner possible.” Reporting this development, State Department spokesman Charles W. Bray added that the U.S. would be willing to nego tiate directly with the Cubans. ,But other officials said Cuba would prefer to negotiate through the Swiss embassy in Havana, which handles U.S. interests in Cuba. Bray emphasized that any ne gotiations which are arranged would be restricted to the hijack ing problem. In Havana, Cuba, Pedro Diaz, an official in the Ministry of For eign Affairs, told the Miami News by telephone the next move on the hijacking negotiations is up to the United States. “We are now awaiting a reply from the United States on our proposal on hijackings,” Diaz said. “Essentially Cuba is willing to resolve the matter of hijack ings of planes and vessels orig inated in the United States but we are worried about it as much as anyone else.” JAY’S SABER INN Package Store Come by and let us show you our selection of fine liquors and wines.
