Wallace in New York
Violence erupts at Garden
NEW YORK (UPI)—Clashes between police and protesters both black and white-erupted around Madison Square Garden Thursday night as third party candidate George C. Wallace made his long-healed New York appearance and won the greatest ovation of his campaign to date.
More than 1,500 police, afoot and horseback, used nightsticks to keep pro and anti-Wallace factions separated as Wallace and his running-mate, retired Air Force Gen. Curtis LeMay, addressed a cheering crowd of 15,000 persons which filled three-fourths of the huge arena.
Many Arrests
At least 23 persons were arrested, including four young women, on charges ranging from disorderly conduct and assault to inciting to riot. An undetermined number were injured, including a pro-Wallace youth who was taken to a hospital with a foot-long knife slash in his back
AWS to sponsor Leadership Day
"Pig, pig, pig," "police brutality," the crowd shouted over and over again as the police forced them from the streets, sometimes with nightsticks flailing. Rocks and soda cans were hurled at police, and one youth swung at a policeman with a stirrup from a police horse.
The demonstrations continued to swirl in the streets around the Garden during the hour-long rally. Many of the Negroes in the crowd wore African dress. Many of the whites appeared to be members of the Youth Against War and Facism Movement. One of the injured was a policeman.
Policy clubbed several anti-Wallacistes, including a girl, to the ground as the masses pushed into the streets around the Garden, completely snarling traffic. Some slow-moving demonstrators were clubbed by police even after they fell to the ground.
Associated Women Students (AWS) will sponsor their annual High School Leadership Day for selected senior girls throughout Kansas at 9 a.m. tomorrow in the Kansas Union.
Pam Castor, chairman of the committee and Kansas City junior, said, "We're trying to bring it down to their level so that we won't seem so far above their heads."
This year's theme is, "Educational Opportunities." Trying to take the stress off academics, AWS will discuss the extra opportunities which KU has to offer.
which he said was inflicted by a Negro in the crowd.
The 200 girls who are expected to attend will have a chance to find out what university life is all about. They will begin-with a welcoming speech from Dean Emily Taylor and then will break up into discussion groups until lunch.
After eating lunch in the freshman residence halls, they will take a bus tour of the campus.
The girls will again meet in groups to discuss the KU coed and her role in university life.
A fashion show will complete the afternoon activities. A WS Fashion Board will model typical KU fashions.

Blacks to oppose LHS cheerleader amendment
Lawrence High School LHS black leaders plan to oppose an amendment to their cheerleader resolution which was presented to the LHS Student Council yesterday.
Beverly Southard, one of the leaders of a black student walkout in September, said the amendment presented by John Bumgardner would give the power of nomination to a board but would leave the cheerleader election to a popular vote by the student body.
Miss Southard said the black students now want the cheerleaders elected by a qualified board and the election taken entirely, out of the hands of the students.
"We don't like it at all," she said. "It's still a popularity contest."
She said she thought the council would pass the amended proposal, but added, "We don't intend to accept it. We'll fight for what we want, but if we lose, we'll just lose this time."
We want you to hear the new AR amplifier.
1. It delivers 60 watts per channel continuous power (not "music power"), about as much as transistors and speakers today can stand. That ought to be enough for you.
2. The fanatical AR quality control that makes their speakers so dependable goes double for the stereo amplifier. If you do run into trouble, parts, labor, freight, even a new carton are part of the bargain. Not for just 90 days, either, but for the first two years.
3. Next to the volume control, tone and balance controls are most important. AR engineers have done these circuits in a beautiful new way, instead of going by the book.

Support asked in letter sent to McCarthy
Hubert Humphrey is receiving active support from former McCarthy and Kennedy supporters here, Teddy O'Toole, chairman of the Student Coalition for Humphrey-Muskie, wrote in an open letter to Sen. Eugene McCarthy.
The letter asks for McCarthy's help in electing Humphrey, O'Toole pleads, "Senator McCarthy, your refusal to support the Humphrey-Muskie ticket might have the ironic effect of helping elect a man we jointly abhor: Richard Nixon."
O'Toole said seven members of his group's advisory board are former McCarthy supporters. "We have active coalition organizations in 43 states, and in each of these states former McCarthy student organizers are in leadership positions." he said.
He added that former McCarthy supporters are in leadership positions in each of 800 Coalition campus groups.
O'Toole asked McCarthy to support the new student movement just as they supported him during his campaign.
