David B. Hill '51, Kirkland House student charged with disturbing the peace a week ago Saturday at the University Theater, will be represented in Superior Court sometime this week by his father, a local attorney.
Hill refused to pay a $3 fine ordered by the Third District Court of Cambridge last week, and in his appeal implied that the case had not been correctly represented by the arresting officer.
Hill refused to make any statement last night, but witnesses alleged that he and a friend had cracked the old joke, "no my father doesn't work for a living--he's cop," in front of an officer in the lobby of the theater.
The policeman then followed Hill, according to accounts, down to the Square where he stopped the students. In the ensuing conversation, Hill claims to have been struck. Soon thereafter, he was rushed off to the station house in Central Square.
The police blotter for the evening merely lists a "disturbance."
