On the third day, some 80-odd flower children staged a swarm-in, temporarily seized the personnel carrier and the copter, and forced the museum to close down the exhibit for half an hour. Pickets 150 strong showed up outside, carrying signs reading L.B.J.'S HEAD START TEACH OUR CHILDREN TO KILL.

...pieces of news that may have been overlooked or "misinterpreted" by daily newspapers and magazines. It reported, for instance, that 40% of the soldiers guarding the Pentagon during last fall's peace march sympathized with the demonstrators; some, said L.N.S., actually shed their uniforms to join the flower people.
