After five hundred students staged a walk-out from a Dorchester high school February 4, Chairman of the School Committee Paul Tierney (Louise Day Hicks' successor), citing a "national conspiracy to disrupt and destroy the public school system," sent uniformed and plainclothes policemen into four Boston high schools to prevent arson and keep non-students out of the buildings.
