Pontiac, Mich.: Two Pontiac Police separate black and white students at racially-troubled Pontiac Central High School 10/7 after one black youth was shot and wounded and another hit by a car. Police lobbed tear gas to disperse crowds of about 500-students, fighting outside the integrated school where four white youths were shot and wounded by blacks two days ago.
