Walton Protests and Faces Jail Time
UCLA basketball star Bill Walton, the 6-11 All American who led the Bruins to a 30-0 season and NCAA title, joined about 50 protesters on the UCLA campus and was arrested for failure to disperse during an antiwar demonstration. An official warned expulsion is unlikely, with other disciplinary actions not discussed. Walton said arrest is minor compared to his view of administration policies in Vietnam.
