Two hundred and two undergraduates signed a petition protesting "the military involvement of the United States in the defense of Quemoy and Matsu" yesterday while the Harvard Liberal Union was collecting $120 to help repair the Clinton, Tenn., high school.
The HLU plans to continue its drive today, said Roger C. Algase '59, president. Collections are also planned for Radcliffe and the graduate schools. Clinton High School was dynamited by segregationists Oct. 5.
Freshmen contributed about half of the money collected in the HLU drive.
Distributed separately by a small group of interested students, the Quemoy-Matsu petition will be sent to the State Department.
