FOUR DAYS IN MAY 1970 - On May 3, Gov. James Rhodes, up for re-election as a law-and-order leader, ranted at a press conference on campus against student protesters, calling them "worse than the brown shirts and the communist element and also the night riders and the vigilantes." Some students defied a curfew and waited in vain to be addressed by the university president. More students were bayoneted. I have a new hypothesis about the cause of the killings that I've reveal on May 4th, the 50 the anniversary of the shootings.
