Denied Winter Campus Housing, International Students Scramble to Find Alternative Options
No one has yet been brought to trial in connection with the September 25 disruption of the Center for International Affairs (CFIA).
Two or three persons involved in the disruptions have been tentatively identified as Harvard students, said James Q. Wilson, professor of Government and chairman of the Committee on Rights and Responsibilities. His committee will have jurisdiction over complaints issued by CFIA against any Harvard students involved in the disruption.
Identification Not Firm
"The identification has not been sufficiently firm for the committee to initiate proceedings into the matter," Wilson said. His committee has not yet received any written complaints from the CFIA, and he does not foresee that it will.
CFIA Director Robert R. Bowic, Clarence Dillon Professor of International Affairs, said that no written complaints would be submitted to the Rights and Responsibilities committee until further evidence was obtained on any Harvard students who might have been involved. He did not rule out the possibility of written complaints to the committee if such evidence should become available.
Shortly after the disruption in September, seven warrants were issued, none of them for Harvard students. Six were John and Jane Doe warrants, and one was for Eric M. Mann, leader of Boston's RYM/SDS chapter.
The Picture Fits
On October 7, Mann was arrested for larceny in Montpelier, Vt. With him was Jill H. Wattenburg, whose picture fitted one of three Jane Doe warrants "to a T," according to a Cambridge detective.
Rendition proceedings to bring Mann back to trial here have begun. He is presently in custody on $2300 bail at the St. Johnsbury Regional Correction Center in St. Johnsbury, Vt. Miss Wattenburg is free on $300 bail, and Vermont authorities were unsure when she would be brought to trial.
