JOHANNESBURG, South Africa
(AP)-The government filed charges
against 53 church leaders-including
two bishops-and jailed 56 teachers and
pupils yesterday for their part in
protests demanding better education
for children of mixed race.
There were reports of student clashes
with police in all four provinces but
there were no known injuries.
STUDENTS OF MIXED race have
been boycotting schools nationwide for
five weeks demaning that the white-
minority government spend an equal
amount on education for children of all
races. The protest has drawn support
from many opponents of racial
segregation.
The government now spends about
$800 a year on each white child, more
than three times the amount spent on
mixed race, Indian, and black pupils.
An emotional crowd of 206 sym-
pathizers sang hymns and waved
Bibles as the multi-racial group of
clergymen and parishioners was
charged in court under the Riotous
Assembly Acts. The arrests were seen
by observers as a crackdown on
political opposition.
THOSE ARRESTED included Bishop
Desmond Tutu, general secretary of the
South African Council of Churches, the -
Right Rev. Timothy Bavin, Anglican
bishop of Johannesburg, and the Rev.
Tom Anthony, director of the national
and world program of the Anglican
Church of Canada in Toronto.
The defendants did not enter pleas.
They were warned not to take part in
further demonstrations and were told to
return to court for a hearing July 1.
Most of the 56 teachers- and pupils
who were jailed were held under
security legislation which allows the
government to detain them for two
weeks without charges. Details were
not available on those arrests.
Various groups joined the protest, in-
cluding black students at the University
of Fort Hare, who were forced to go
home for supporting the action because

GOVERNMENT WRESTS CONTROL FROM STUDENTS:
. Korean revolt alted

KWANGJU, South Korea (AP)-
Paratroopers patroled the dark streets
of this city of 800,000 last night, enfor-
cing strict martial law after gover-
nment forces brought a nine-day
rebellion here to a bloody end.
Government officials put the death
toll at 19-two soldiers and 17
civilians-in the pre-dawn attack that
wrested control of the city from the
student-led insurgents. It pushed the
unofficial death count in Kwangju since
May 18 to 280, with hundreds wounded.
AUTHORITIES GAVE no overall
count of the wounded in yesterday's
battle but said 12 soldiers had suffered
wounds.
The uprising was the climax of a
month of protests against national mar-
tial law and of demands for a return to
democratic rule. It was the bloodiest
civil disturbance in South Korea's
modern history.
Expressing relief that the final

assault had not caused more bloodshed,
government officials called on "all
people to help heal the tragic scars"
and said President Choi Kyu-hah had
ordered relief efforts to begin im-
mediately to help residents recover
from more than a week of violence and
economic disruption in the city 150
miles south of Seoul, the South Korean
capital.
"THE KWANGJU incident should
serve as an occasion for all the people
'to reflect on their actions so that such a
tragedy is never repeated in this coun-
try," said Culture and Information
Minister Lee Kwang-pyo, the chief
government spokesman.
"There still exists a constant threat
of communist invasion from the Nor-
th," he said. "Under these circumstan-
ces, we should endeavor to overcome
and settle any problems in a spirit of
harmony and compromise."
Officials said 295 persons had been

arrested as suspected instigators and
participants in the revolt. Groups of
captives, most apparently university
students, were seen being led away
from the shell-pocked headquarters of
the Cholla provincial government in
downtown Kwangju, South Korea's
fourth-largest city.
The government insisted the revolt
was instigated by North Korean com-
munist agents, but student leaders and
sympathizers among Kwangju's
citizenry 'denied this. They said their
cause was the same as that of students
who had demonstrated elsewhere in the
country since May 1-an end to seven
months of martial law and a speed-up in
promised democratic reforms.
They said the violent uprising was a
reaction to brutality used by
paratroopers.
