DEMONSTRATION AT AIR FORCE ACADEMY


AIR FORCE ACADEMY, Colo.--Police carry off a demonstrator


identified as Barbara Minor of Denver after breaking up an anti-air


war protest during chapel services at the Air Force Academy. The


Academy's chapel is in the background. Thirty-one protestors, in-


cluding seven nuns, six clergymen and 19 lay people were detained


briefly by Air Police and county sheriff's officers for handing out


pamphlets denouncing continued U.S. bombings in Indo-China.


Some 60 members of Clergy and Laymen Concerned joined in a non-


violent silent witness during Catholic and Protestant services at


the chapel. One protestor left the service every five minutes to


dramatize a claim that U.S. bombs are killing 300 civilians -- or


about one every five minutes -- every day in Laos and Cambodia.
