8 ........ ..THE CADRE 119.9 KENT, OHIO - The student council pres— ident and a sociology professor were among those arrested Tuesday (Oct 20) as county deputy sheriffs began a roundup of 25 per- sons indicted by a state grand jury in connec- tion with the protests against American in— vasion of Cambodia last May. National guardsmen killed four students during the protest action._ The grand jury report took blame away from the guardsmen and placed the ‘major respon- sibility’ on the university administration for fostering ‘an attitude oflaity, over—indulgence, permissiveness.’ Faculty members were also blamed for ‘over emphasis’ of the right to dissent. Student council president Craig Morton was arrested by a man in civilian clothing wearing an American flag in his lapel and charged with ,second degree (would you believe) riot for being part of a ‘tumultuous’ crowd. He was released on $1,000 bail. Thomas S. tough, 42 year old associate professor of sociology, was charged with in- citement to riot and released on $5,000 bail. Dr. Lough. a self—professed socialist on a. faculty where liberals are identifiable by the beards they wear with their crewcuts, is pop- ular among the students. but regarded with alann by some of his colleagues (that means faculty) who fear, as one said, that ‘He’s giving us a bad name.’ The professor who also directs an anti- " poverty program in Akron, has been a con- troversial figure since he began describing the manufacture of molotov cocktails in his social problems course several years ago. The first of those arrested was Richard Felber, 21, who left Kent State last fall. He is already in jail serving a 20-40 year senten- ce for possession of hallucinogenic drugs. The news of the arrest of Morgan, an air force ROTC cadet who has been the major spokesman and organizer for the emphasis on non-violence that pervades campus groups here, was greeted with consternation among the students. As signs announcing the arrest were posted in the windows of the campus newspaper, the Daily Kent Stater students shook their heads. ‘I just don’t believe it,’ said one student. Near Memorial Gate at the edge of the cam- pus, one student asked what the student pres- ident had been charged with. ‘I don’t know: I guess they just wanted to. get him because he’s a symbol’ his companion said. Dr. Robert 1. White, the university president this morning issued a statement saying that he would not immediately comment on the grand jury report. Like all of the 300 witnesses before the I grand jury, Dr. White has been under a court order forbidding him to speak to news— men. On Saturday, Common Pleas Judge Edwin Jones issued a modification of the order to permit Dr. White to hold a news conference to comment on the report but specifically forbidding him to criticize it. This moming‘s statement began dryly: “It is impossible for me to make any com- ment on the grand jury report without crit- ical comment of portions of it. This would violate the supplemental order....” Dr. White, a pipe-sm oking man who wears his Phi Beta Kappa key on his tie clasp, is caught between theircstless'nes’s of his stud- ents, the resentment of_the townspeople and the pressures being brought to bear by state and local politicians. On Friday, he was de— nounced both by the grand jury and by the students at a rally. . _ _ This afternoon, he issued another statement New. . 9&4 ‘ Indicted at Kent State calling the Friday rally “deplorable” and char- ging that it was “beyond any doubt an de facto disruption”. Under a new Ohio law, campus disruption is a crime. There was heated debate among-members of the student government over whether William M. Kunstler, the radical lawyer who has volunteered to direct the defense of those indicted, should go ahead with a speech sche: duled for tonight at the Magic Theatre, a downtown bar. Both the faculty senate and the student government met in emergency sessions this afternoon. University officials said that before his arrest, Mr. Morgan had asked that Mr. Kunstler not be granted permission to speak_on campus. The debate reflected, on the other hand, fear that the university might be shut down and a commitment to non-violence widely shared among the student‘body, and, on the other hand, the anger of the students over last spring’s deaths and the’findings -of the grand jury.
