Mario Savio addresses a small coterie of reporters in a packed Sproul Plaza as thousands of students swarm around a solitary police car. {Reference to "Goines" hereafter refers to David Lance Goines, _The Free Speech Movement: Coming of Age in the 1960s_ (Berkeley, CA: Ten Speed Press, 1993)} Goines: "October 1, 1964: At noon, Jack Weinberg is arrested at a CORE [=Congress of Racial Equality] table in front of Sproul Hall. Students sit down around the police car to which he is carried, preventing its departure. Demonstrators speak from the top of the car. Five hundred students sit in at Sproul Hall. At 6:15 pm, demonstrators and police battle for control of Sproul Hall doors, demonstrators prevailing. Anti-demonstrators converge on Sproul Plaza, and a fire engine races through campus. Potentially violent confrontation between demonstrators and fraternity boys averted. Demonstrators remain around police car all night.
