FOUR YEARS AGO Saturday, National Guardsmen killed four students at Kent State University in Ohio. Trouble had been building at the university for about a week, beginning when students set up roadblocks during a strike for admissions of more black students and an end to on-campus ROTC. Ohio governor James J. Rhodes was hard-pressed in his campaign for the Republican nomination to be senator. He was running against a Taft, his administration had run into some financial scandal, and he was pushing "law and order" issues hard, brandishing the National Guard at campus demonstrations like a new, improved...
When the shooting stopped, four students were dead. William K. Schroeder, 19, of Lorain, Ohio, had been second in his ROTC class. Sandra Lee Scheuer, 20, of Youngstown, Ohio, had been walking to a speech therapy class with a friend.

...congressional or presidential general-election campaign or for a mix of public and private funding; the bill also calls for matching public and private funds in primaries. The House bill, which makes public financing mandatory for presidential elections but prohibits it entirely for congressional races, is languishing in Ohio Democrat Wayne Hays' Administration Committee. A bill submitted by Nixon limits individual giving and tightens disclosure but opposes any public financing on the grounds that it is wrong "to make millions of Americans pay [for] the political activities of individuals and parties with which they might totally disagree." This argument...
