An unidentified black girl was injured when she fell out of a second story window during the melee. Pratt Williamson, a local fu neral director who observed the incident, said the girl fell when she tried to drop a window screen on a deputy standing on the - ground. It was after that, Wil liamson said, that police lobbed tear gas into the building. James Barrow of SCLC charged police used billy clubs on the children, and in addition, gave clubs to several local whites to help drive the children out. Hyde County Sheriff Charlie J. Cahoon could not be, reached for comment, nor could police in the area. The children call themselves "Martin Luther King Nonviolent Crusaders." They marched into the welfare building Friday to protest the departments threat to cut off aid to black parents whose children are boycotting county schools. About 20 officers arrived, ac cording to Barrow, and spent an hour evacuating employees from the building. Then, under a barrage of tear gas, they moved in. Barrow said children hid under tables, chairs, and inside closets to escape police. He said he knew of no arrests, although a number of injuries were reported. Parents who tried to get their children out of the building were also gassed, he said. Some chil dren had their clothes ripped off in the fracas. The welfare office was closed because of the gas still lingering in its rooms. Nearly all of the county's 855 black school children have been boycotting schools because o f "unequal and unrepresentative desegregation plans."
