it was too dark. .He had no idea whether the people involvedwere students or outsiders. He added, however, while the fire

'men were attemtping to extinguish the flames, approximately30 individuals were involved in an attempt to take the hosesaway from the fire men. At this sane time, stones werecontinuing to bethrown at the ROTC Buildhg.

University Police in evidence at this time. Ireported to the desk sergeant that they have thrownarailroad flare in the R.O.T.C. building, andwill burn it down. His response was to rndio oneof his patrol units, to ask ii they could see thobuilding burning. Their response was apparently nega-tive, and I told the desk sergeant that if he and

I stood there discussing whether or not the buildingwas burning, for ten minutes, it certainly would ho.He thanked no ior my report, and was making othercalls on the radio, so Ileft and returned tothe vicinity of the R.O.T.C. building. Thedemonstrators were still throwing stones at thewindows, and at one point two or three of themrushed the building with a log and threw it

through 3window, breaking the cr0ssfrnme. Thefirst railroad flare apparently did not do the

job, sud utleast two other ottompts.were node toset the huilding eiirc. One demonstrator sotthecurtains at one of the windows aflnue. They burned,

but did not appear to set the building on fire.Several ofthe demonstrators than aygroaehed two

motorcycles on the cinder parking lot, soaked ragsin the gasoline from their tanks, and set theseaflnsoin the building. I still did not see any lawenforcement officials in the area.

see one demonstrator with a sheathed hunting knife onhis belt, with an eight to twelve inch blade. Onefireman succeeded in getting ahose attached at the

"hydrant at the northwest corner of the building, and

was proceeding to drag it, with water coming irom thenozzle, to the southwest corner of the building, wherethe fire was Started. I heard shouts of get the -hose from the crowd, an; four to six-of the

Two of these individuals appeared to be settingthe building afire by throwing lighted objects through a winat thisend of the ROTC building.

The studentsand demonstrators were throwing rocks. stones and otherobjects at the deputies and at the ROTC building. Theywere also shouting obscenities at the deputies. The deputiesseemed to be occupied fully in protecting themselves frombeing hit by the thrown missiles and were doing nothing toprotect theROTC building or disperse the crowds.

" addition, he saw some individuals chop at the fire hoses

with mechetes and axes.They apparently cut through thehoses because the firemen lostwater pressure and were help-less to put out the fire.'
