Scrubwomen Drive Out Sit-in At London School of Economics
About 200 students had protested the suspension of fellow students at the London School of Economics where John F. Kennedy once studied. Scrubwomen confronted the demonstrators in a corridor, dismantling a barricade and forcing the sit-in to end as security allowed the students to remain seated until dawn. Marshall Bloom, a Denver native and head of the graduate students association, and another leader were suspended for staging the demonstration against the appointment of Walter Adams as director over Rhodesia policy.
