AT LEAST 30 persons, 15 of them police, were injured Mon day in clashes between students and police and police and thugs when the wave of antigovernment demonstrations spread to this capital and two other cities. The new violence threatened President Rhee's governmenl with a major crisis, as alarmed government officials contemplated the possibility of further outbreaks.

The high school students involved in the clash Tuesday were planning a protest against a government ban on demonstrations when police intercepted them. Pusan. South Korea's second largest city, and Congju, 70 miles southeast of the capital, were scenes of other violence Monday. MEMBERS of President Syng- man Rhee's Cabinet met to discuss the demonstrations that began in Masan last week.

The trouble broke out in mass defiance of a government ban on demonstrations imposed after several students were killed in bloody rioting in Masan. -f SEVERAL, thousand university students started a demonstration that ended in a skull-cracking, window-smashing riot after dark. In Pusan, 1,300 high school boys stoned policemen, smashed windshields of fire engines and injured two officers in a three- hour demonstration.
