Representatives of the Harvard administration yesterday met with protesting members of the Roxbury community, along with Harvard Afro and SDS members. They discussed in heated fashion, two proposals of the Roxbury-based New Urban League of Boston...

At first anonymous, the leaflet reappears in a second edition signed Students for a Free...
