This is the second photo in a series of three related photos. The three are attached together with masking tape. This photo shows a close-up of a male demonstrator's face (see H98.1.994). He has been involved in an altercation with police, and has been injured. He has been struck on the side of the head with a police officer's billy club. His head is bleeding and his eyes are wide with fear. Two people are assisting him but only their hands are included in the photo. One person is holding his head, while another person is applying pressure to the wound - holding a bandage tightly against the wound. A note written in black pen on the back of the photograph reads,"He refused to move fast enough & got beaten". On May 12, an anti-war demonstration protesting President Richard Nixon's Vietnam war policies (specifically Nixon's recently announced strategy to mine North Vietnamese harbors) was held in front of the St. Francis Hotel. Both California Govenor Ronald Reagan and New York Govenor Nelson Rockefeller were staying at the hotel during an official "kick-off" for Nixon's re-election campaign. Three thousand plus demonstrators attended the noontime rally, which turned violent when a police motorcycle was set afire. There were sixty arrests and numerous injuries.
