If V) 1 " IT' - 1 M 4 ft V X Police Raid College Wanky And &ng Heels Ink United Press International A protest by more than 700 Columbia University students that began over university policy came to a swift and violent climax during the week, leaving students and faculty bitJLer and officials about the future course of the prestigious school. A forceof 1,000 policemen routed the students from five buildings they had occupied for seven days, dragging, car rying and leading them off to jail where they spent the night before being charged with trespassing. About 140 students were injured in the bloody melee. The police action brought the small leftist organization that spearheaded the protest, the Students for a Democratic So ciety (SDS), a broad base of support among fellow students and faculty members, who called a strike. They were de manding the resignations of university President Grayson Kirk and university Vice Pres ident David Truman for calling in the police. At the week's end, the pro test and the strike had shut most of the Morningside Heights campus of the 17,500 student university for eight days eays. The SDS began the protest with demands the University end construction of a gymna sium in a nearby Harlem park which the students said would deprive residents of a recre ation area and that the uni versity end participation in a Defense Department research program Columbia halted construction on the gym but the universi ty's efforts to negotiate the students out of the buildings hung up over the students' de mand for amnesty. After the two-hour police sweep, a shaken and dejected Kirk appeared before newsmen to explain the action. "If Co lumbia had preapred to accede to the students' demands for amnesty from all disciplinary action resulting from their il legal conduct," he said, "we would have dealt a near fatal blow not only to this institu tion but to the whole of Amer ican education."
