GRAND RAPIDS (A) - Police maintained patrols inside and out amid racial tension at three Grand Rapids high schools to- J day while city school officials studied black demands for a school of their own. Demands for a high school and middle school in the black cons- munity plus an end to busing of black pupils were on a list of sev- en items presented to school A ficials Wednesday. There were no reports of any incidents at Central, Creston, and Ottawa Hills High- Schools, which opened for the second consec tive day under police guard be- cause of racial tension. A fourth high school, Union, where the trouble began Mon- day with a 10-minute slugging match involving scores of black and white pupils, remained closed with no indication when it will reopen. No trouble w a s reported Wednesday as one detective pa- trolled inside each of the three high schools which held classes. Two uniformed policemen were stationed outside each school and there was a similar surveillance for at least two middle schools. Paul Phillips, president of the Grand Rapids Urban League, pre- sented the demands after a peaceful march to the Board of Edugation offices by a group of about 300 blacks. Phillips said the list, "repre- sents the total thinking of the black community, not just some. On these issues we're all tI- gether." Other demands included im- provements for predominately, black South Middle School, em- ploying more black school per- sonnel, dismissing teachers iden- tified as "racists,' and award- ing diplomas to black hign school seniors now in good standing 're- gardless of what happens during the remainder of the school year."

Murtagh ordered Powell re- moved from the courtroom for a few minutes, but readmitted him before submitting the case to the jury, which included five blacks. The case, the longest criminal proceeding in New York Stats', began in April, 1969 with toe ar- rest of the defendants and the indictment of 22 persons. It has cost an estimated $2 million. Nine of those named in the or- iginal indictment either have never been apprehended or were subjects of separate litigations. The prosecution based its case on the testimony of four under- cover agents who infiltrated the Panther party in 1968 and 1969 and reported daily on their ac- tivities. Defense lawyers hammered at the credibility of the policemen who said they were under pres sure to justify their roles by get- ting incriminating evintenuce. They charged the prosecution's case was compounded of out of context statements, irrelevancies and appeals to racial fears and bias. In New Haven yesterday, the defense rested in the murder- kidnap trial of Black Panthers Bobby Seale and Erika Huggins, (See story., Page 7,.
