Clingan gave a chronological report on the recent ances at the university and said Chancellor H. Edward Young told the black leaders that two of the demands proposed would be impossible to grant. These were granting amnesty for demonstrators, and giving students a voice in hiring and firing instructors for black culture studies. Clingan said negotiations broke off when black leaders failed to appear at the appointed time for a session with Young and that he left the office. When the leaders arrived late they interpreted absence to mean that he refused to discuss issues with them and that that was when the demonstrations began, according to Clingan.

He said the administration had been working for some time on trying to solve the problems which led to the demands by the black leaders and are continuing to work on them. Clingan said that after a student had called his attention to two mounted machine guns on the campus and manned by National Guardsmen he ordered them removed at once, which was done. was a real Clingan said. administration won a victory, but we alienated 50 per cent of the Randi Christensen, daughter of Mr. and Mrs.

HIGH IN THE SKY High in the sky is the 127-foot Viroqua water tower, being built at a cost of $79,800. The golfball type tower will contain 250,000 gallons and will be connected with the Railroad Avenue well by 5,300 feet of 10-inch mains. It is being erected on the 80-acre Rusk Industrial Park. Its foundation in solid concrete is almost 10 feet deep. The kite-like shapes at the base of the tower are plates which will form part of the reservoir.

Some idea of its size may be gained from the dwarfed figure of the worker at the right. In the lower photo, one of the huge plates is about to be hoisted into position.
