At Fayerweather Hall, where protesters had preplanned every act by majority vote, students who intended to submit cleanly to arrest lined up at the door; those who preferred to be dragged out sat on an upper floor; those who decided to resist linked arms on another floor. The neat plans went awry as police kicked and clubbed their way through the building. For no clear reason, they even attacked newsmen, including a LIFE photographer and, of all people, Columnist Walter Winchell...
