taverns throughout the evening When the bars closed at midnight, thousands of students spilled into the streets.
Many of the students apparently became excited when someone in the crowd stabbed police Sgt. Robert Saber, who was patrolling the area with other officers.
Saber, bleeding profusely, tried to push his way through the crowd to a group of other
Alvin Johnson, director of the Riley County Police Department, said, "At that point, the group just turned on the officer and went after him. I don't think the group was aware that the officer was cut. They thought he was pursuing someone."
Saber suffered a puncture wound in his right arm. He was treated and released. Police said they did not have a suspect in the stabbing.
ONE KU STUDENT who witnessed the melee, Sara Kennedy, Lawrence junior, said she was "scaRED to death" as she watched the mob shout at police.
"The fact that the police were carrying batons, plus the fact that the crowd had turned on the police, sort of went to everyone's heads," she said. "All of a sudden, the police found themselves in a circle and backed up three blocks."
In past years, the KU/K-State rivarly has extended beyond the playing field and into the taverns of Lawrence or Manhattan. Students in these areas among students have not been uncommon.
When KU plays at K-State, Riley County police said they assigned extra officers to the campus.
This year, however, witnesses said the conflict was not between KU and K-State students, but between students and police.
Police used batons to restrain groups of shouting students, witnesses said. Members of the mob responded by hurting beer bottles, forcing them at police officers, forcing the confrontation.
YARNALL SAID about 20 people were arrested. Most of the charges were for assaulting a law enforcement officer, disorderly conduct and slight K-State students were arrested, he said.
Among those arrested were one Lawrence resident and one KU student. Yarnall said
Henry Yoo, 22, of 1500 W. 24th St., was arrested and charged with battery to a law enforcement officer. He was released yesterday on $500 bond and is to appear in Riley County Court Wednesday, Yarnall said.
Douglas Swenson, 22. Osawatomi senior.
was arrested and charged with criminal damage to property. Swenson was released on $1,000 bond yesterday and also is to appear in Riley County Court Wednesday, police said.
Other KU students also might have been arrested, Yarnall said, but police asked students only for their hometowns, not school affiliation.
Police said many Manhattan residents who were not students also were involved in the ruckus.
Charles Hein, director of communications for K-State, called the events in Aggieville "an unfortunate incident."
Another patrolman, Orlando Pages, was injured outside a Hardee's restaurant. A beer bottle from the crowd slashed him across the face
"We探听 the whole thing," Hein said. "The people who were arrested will be dealt with by the civil authorities, as we expect they should be.
"It's a regrettable incident — certainly not the kind of behavior we expect from K-State students."

Students protest site of new science library
With the branches of a 50-foot tall American elm arching above them, about 25 students sat in a circle outside the Military Science Building yesterday afternoon to protest the site of the new science and technology library.
The students sat quietly, surveying the gold and orange leaves scattered about the wooded area between the Military Science Building and Hoch Auditorium.
Construction on the new library, planned to be built between the Military Science Building and Hooh Auditorium, could begin as early as 1967. Jim Kanz, dean of libraries, said
RANZ SAID LAST week that he understood the concerns of those who wanted to preserve the wooded area, but stressed that the Kansas "desperately needed" a new library.
"I don't see anything wrong with wanting to save a tree — or any of the trees in that area," he said. "I agree, they can put a building there that would ruin the whole area. But they can put a building there attractively, too."
Mark "Gilligan" Sump, one of the authors of a petition that calls for the new library to be built on a different site, invoked the protesting students to picture builders, concrete and construction workers devouring the land.
"We're here today to determine if that's what we want our campus to look like." Sump said. "We may have a fight on our hands, though."
MAX SIMPONS, AN architect with Peckham, Guyton, Alberts and Viets Inc. in Kansas City, Mo., said last week that no floor had been made to cut down the 50 foot ceiling.
Ranz said plans for the library should be finished by January 1985 and then will be submitted to the Kansas Legislature for approval.
"All we've got is the site," Simpson said. "We haven't decided where the building will be on the site, nor the height nor the design of the building."
The library is scheduled to be built in two phases, Ranz said. When completed, the library will be almost the size of Watson, with close to 150,000 square feet of library space.
salsa and other students at yesterday's rally said they weren't opposed to the new
library, but they want University officials to consider all other possible sites before beginning construction.
"WE CAN'T PRETEND to the job of the building committee, but they didn't even consult us." Sump said. "Essentially, we can take the administration hear our for a change."
During the past month, more than 3,000 students signed a petition opposing the library site. Sump said. Student Senate passed the petition at its meeting Wednesday morning, as it brought it to the Chancellor Gene A. Budig, the Board of Regents and members of the Legislature.
Ranz said the site for the new library was selected because of its central location.
THE FIRST PHASE of building, tentatively scheduled for completion in 1898 at cost of $1.93 million, will include space for all computers and a computer science, architecture and geography.
The second phase, which could begin construction as early as 1990, will include space for business, engineering and music materials.
Preserving the 50-foot American elm was brought up at the Sept. 28 science library committee meeting. Ranz said, but committee members must wait for the architects to complete their plans before making a decision about the tree.
YESTERDAY. THE small group of protesters swapped ideas for saving the wooded area for more than a hour, but admitted that organizing student support wouldn't be easy
"I talked to a lot of my friends and they think saving the tree is great," said Ellen Eder, St. Louis junior. "But when I told them about the rally, they were really cynical. They think, 'Well, they'll cut it down anyways.'"
Martie Aaron, Wichita junior, said. "It is important for the administration to listen to the students on this issue. If it's our campus. It will help us stop them from taking Potter Lake?"
Sump said the group will gather at the elm tree at 5:30 p.m. tomorrow for another rally. The group will discuss plans for a homecoming float.
"It'll be a potluck picnic," he said. "Bring banners, bring friends, bring food."
