another work day with such grave
tragedies occurring."
Over 200 people attended last
night's strike coalition meeting
and made final arrangements for
strike activities.
A second rally was scheduled
for 5 p.m. today.
The first dissemination of strike
information will begin this morn-
ing as picketers and leafletters
place themselves at strategic posi-
tions across campus.
After much debate last night
the coalition voted to emphasize
that the protest will be peaceful.
There was some indication, how-
ever, that certain factions intend
to engage in disruptive actions.
In order to ensure a "militant,
but disciplined, n on - v i o l e n t
march," the coalition has organ-
ized a contingent of student mar-
shals to stifle any outbreaks of
violence.
Members of local high school
organizations also met last night
to plan protest activities in their
own schools. Strikes there are
planned for Monday, and will be
preceded by leaftletting through-
out this week.
The statement by President
Fleming said: "All of us have been
shocked and depressed by the
tragic events on the Kent State
University cartipus," "A number of
faculty people have called me sug-
gesting that there be an oppor-
tunity for the academic com-
munity to share its sorrow in some
kind of convocation. ,
"Accordingly, I have initiated
arrangements for a memorial ser-
vice to be held on campus Thurs-
day, May 7, probably at noon,"
Fleming added.
In an earlier statement on the
wave of student strikes across the
country, Fleming said: "The depth
of alienation among youg people
over our involvement in Southeast
Asia is a national tragedy. I see
no hope that these wounds will be
healed so long as our present poli-
cy continues."
Meanwhile, Student Govern-
ment Council last night endorsed
the national student strike. In a
statement, SGC said, "We con-
demn the slaughter of four univer-
sity students at Kent State and
feel that their responsibility for
this tragedy lies in the calculated
effort of the Nixon-Agnew admin-
istration to destroy all forms of
dissent.
"The government must recog-
nize the rising crescendo of dissent'
against its policies," the statement
continued," and act in a manner
responsive to the growing concern'
of the American people over this
country's involvement in the war
in Southeast Asia. We demand an
immediate withdrawal of all
American troops in Southeast
Asia."
In anticipation of today's strike
activities, University administra-
tion representatives and SGC of-
ficers met with Mayor Robert
Harris and Police Chief Walter
Krasny last night to discuss the
proper action to be taken if dis-
ruptions occur. Administration of-
ficials said that disrupters would
be dealt with more severely now
than they had been during the
recent class strike supporting the
demands of the Black Action
Movement.

Whats
your,
excuse?
You could have gone water ski-
ing or swimming or to a dance
at night. Instead you've spent
the entire day moping around
the house feeling sorry for
yourself. And why? Just be-
cause it was one of those diffi-
cult times? How ,silly. A lot of
girls are out there enjoying
themselves under the same cir-
cumstances. They use Tampax
tampons.
Tampax tampons are worn
internally so you can swim or
dance or do most anything you
please. There are no bulky pads
or telltale odor to give you
away. Tampax tampons are so
easy to use. Yes, even the first
time. Just follow the instruc-
tions inside each package. So
go on out and enjoy yourself.
With Tampax tampons you
have no excuse.
