Students protest in Monument Valley Demonstrating High School students armed with picks, shovels, sleeping bags, paint and guitars decended in gaily painted vans and campers this week upon the usually quiet Southern Utah hamlet of Monument Valley to protest some of the existing conditions on the Navajo Indian Reservation. Setting up camp at the Seventh-da- y Adventist Monument Valley Mission and Hospital, the students began demonstrating by splashing paint on one of the hospital buildings. In fact, they splashed a new Welfare and Community center inside and out with paint they brought with them. Some worked several day's boarding up another hospital building with paneling. Some tore up the ground searching for water mains and others demonstrated against the pollution and trash of the white man as they restored that part of the Reservation to its native beauty. girls demonstrain the scene ted the drug pharmacy by restoring the donated drugs to law and order. Three times a day the demonstrators marched on to the kitchen wrecking and depleting the food stores. The long hairs of the group remained to mop up. Pill-pushi- ng The back nature bunch overran a pastor's hogan for several nights and were raided by other young whites making like Indians. The only casualties suffered were to people and pride. The damage sustained were water on fires, sleeping bags, peoples faces and clothes and one muddy hogan. The demonstrations were far the most part peaceful, marred only by a few pillow fights and water fights. Injuries were reported to include a couple of mashed thumbnails, blistered feet, sore seats, loss of sleep and minor cuts and bruises. One group from San Clemente, Calif, under the sponsorship of St. Andrews by the Sea United Methodist Church began demonstrating Monday, March 27. Keith and Sharon Sims and Mrs. Helen Line led the band and gave direction to the labor and cleanup details. A film of the early days of the Monument Valley Mission and Hospital produced by Mr. and Mrs. Line was shown to crowds on three different nights. A second group of 19 young people from the San Diago Adventist Area Seventh-da- y Churches donated labor and supplies to finish up the Recreation Hall and th e new Community Services Building. The latter group was a reconnaissance group for further such demonstrations this summer.
