that they had in their rooms. The rooms were shot up. Each of
the locks in Scott Hall were shot off the doors, you know,
like somebody was in there so they had to shoot the locks off.
And the State Government refused to pay for this. SCOTT and his
boys refused to pay for this, and th administration of A and T
has got to get the money of some kind to paint all thuse rooms
and so forth. So SCOTT at a big dinner recently where he invited
all the presidents of the student bodies to come in and talk, the
brothers got together and said they were going to boycott him,

riot laws and so forth that they passed in June which kind of
tightens up things. So, you know, the oppression is really
increasing, so when you talk about the future, you know, what
we're going to be doing in the future, it's kind of, you know,
you have to look at it temporarily, because things are chan ing
pretty fast.
One of the things that we've had to deal with again is
