Puerto Ricans, police clash
NEWARK, N.J. (AP)—
Hundreds of predominantly Puerto
Rican demonstrators, who were
protesting police actions, hurled
stones at City Hall and smashed
storefront windows Monday in a
second day of disorders.
After meeting with two groups of
community leaders. Mayor Ken
neth Gibson asked Newark’s
400,000 residents Monday night to
“voluntarily stay indoors until
further notice.”
During the meetings, police
made two forays into the city’s main
street to disperse demonstrators,
numbering up to 1,000 persons.
The protestors said they were
angered by police arrests and handl
ing of disorders at a Puerto Rican
festival on Sunday. The protesters
complained excessive force had
been used by police at the disor
ders.
Some protesters demanded the
ouster of Police Director Hubert
Wilhams, whom Gibson appointed
to the post several months ago.
Monday’s trouble came on the
heels of a demonstration by about
2,000 persons Sunday night over
disorders at a picnic in Branch
Brook Park.
Two men were shot at the Sunday
festival; a 4-year-old girl was tram
pled by a policeman’s horse; and
several others were hit by flying
rocks and bottles. Two police cars, a
fire department car and a motorcy
cle were burned.
Authorities didn’t say what
caused the disturbance or who fired
the shots, but some police reports
indicated the crowd’s anger stem
med from gambling arrests at the
picnic.

The Academic council
lengthened Q grade drop time in
Thursday’s meeting.
Formerly, the student desiring to
drop a course had to do so by the
20th day of class to receive a mark of
Q. This symbol indicates a drop
without penalty. Any drops after
this time were indicated as P or F,
dropped with a passing grade or
dropped with a failing grade.
Under the new rule, a student
can drop his course, regardless of
grade, with a Q up until mid-term.
He must have the approval of his
academic dean. Thereafter, he may
drop the course only with a Q if he is
passing the course. A grade of F will
be recorded if dropped with less
than a “C” average.
