A 2 Jutf i I Protest Aftermath: A Shoe, umor-Aiid A Full Jail A When it was all nvpr at Kent Sra'e University Werlnes-day night custodians wetv the only people left the third floor nf the Music and Speech building where Students rr a Democratic i (SDS) demonstrated for more than four hours. The crew, three cleaning women and two janitors, were left with the task nf cleaning the litter and debris. The third floor corridor was strewn with cups, trash paper, an empty milk carton, towels torn from machines in a women's rest room, overturned wastehaskets and a woman's right shoo. A METAL fire door, which kept demonstrators from the hearing room where members were appealing suspensions from the university, was bent and battered. A rack for storing folding chairs was bent and overturned.

(in the first floor a glass panel of a door was shattered where SDSers had attempted to force their way into the building. A university spokesman said a complete damage estimate had not been made but he felt the total would be at least several hundred dollars. The 19 women arrested in the Kent State University disturbance went to court bane- footed. They walked from the County Courthouse across a a street to Municipal Court. The reason? Sheriff's deputies explained that women's shoes often reinforced with metal and generally have sharp (huiis and can be used as weapons.

The men were allowed to keep their shoes. A early morning rumor sparked Portage County Sheriff's deputies to the biggest scarp of the night. While demonstrators were being brought to the Portage County jail the word spread that 200-plus Kent State students were on their way to Ravenna to storm the jail. Chief Deputy Walter Moore interrupted a court session to tell the judges and prosecutors that he was preparing lor the worst. Deputies once again donned their riot helmets, but this time added shotguns and canisters of tear gas to their usual weapons of riot sticks and sidearms.

Nothing happened. Togetherness in jail? Mr. and Mrs. Edward 0. Erickson spent the night in Portage County Jail in separate cells.

Carolyn "Candy" Erickson, was arrested on a trespassing charge but was released on $1,000 bond. She is a graduate student and teaches freshman English at Kent State University. "Rick" Erickson is the son of former Akron mayor Edward 0. Erickson, was held in jail without bond on a trespassing charge. He was out on an assault and battery charge resulting from last week's demonstration.

Lawvers Herb Kane and Jo- Many of the trouble makers were not KSU students. One was an Oberlin student who was ousted two days ago. Lights burned br'ghtly in the court room all night as a battery of four prosecutors prepared charges and judges processed the long parade of demonstrators. The judges had been alerted and were on standby when the first students arrived. TWO GIRLS refused to leave the bus when deputies called them by number rather than by name.

"We have names," they shouted. The girls appeared barefooted in court as jail keepers confiscated their shies. Ralph H. Beuhler of Ann Arbor, sat in front of one of the busses and refused to move. He was dia-ged with an officer and his bond set at $1,300.

He became unruly after leaving the court room. A officer marched him downstairs at gunpoint. DEMONSTRATOR AND FOE SQUARE OFF ON KSU'S FRONT CAMPUS Continued from A-l first aid station, but -only one student was slightly hurt when kicked in the back during a scuffle. At Ravenna the prisoners were locked up in the crowded jail, then handcuffed and taken five at a time across the street to Ravenna Municipal Court.

seph Giulitto witnessed the court hearings for the Portage County Bar Association to guarantee students' constitutional rights. Among those sneaking at the rally before the march to the Music and Speech building were Cleveland rebel priests Robert T. Begin and Bernard L. Meyer. F'ather Begin told the crowd "the revolution is begun and either you come along with the revolution or the revolution will run you over the U.

S. has no right to spread imperialistic attitudes to the other nations of the world." Neither he nor Fr. Meyer participated in the march, but reportedly helped collect bond motiey on campus for those arrested. Here todny'r, sttemnt by Kent Sta1? president. Or.

Rcbe-i J. White, after the Wotlncsdfy campus disorders: IN HIS STATEMENT this morning, President White said that, "for months SDS has signaled and announced its disruptive tactics. Their plans had been no secret. Yesterday's speeches openly urged violent action." "The immediate situation had gone beyod control. The proceeding events marked by rxtreme volatility by many had strained our insufficient police resources.

The campus police were simply over-whelmed by the cascadirg events. "Not a blow was struck by a policrman despite the breaking of windows and the wrenching of doors from hinges. The State Patrol Operation was impeccable. "Our action coincides with clear previous announcements and indications. The major statement on March 7, made explicit the university's basic position in mailers of dlsriip.

THEY AltL; James Powrie, 2t, 310 W. Matthew Flanagan ill, Jeff Powell fed Jailing student demonstrators turned out to be a gigantic squeeze play.

Parents? There were none in sight as the 58 men and women charged in the KSU disturbance were hailed before Municipal Court Judges Lester Campbell and Robert Kent for bond hearings. Some reported their parents would be coming later today. R. Plageman, 21, Mentor; Richard Skirvin, 23, 1604 E. Main Kent; John Cox, 19, S.
