TECH RIOTERS ESCAPE JAIL SENTENCE, DENY COP BITING

Escaping the jail sentences recommended by Police Chief Leahy, three Tech rioters were fined $15 each yesterday, and three more had their cases filed when they were found guilty in East Cambridge Court of having disturbed the peace Monday night.

Appealing their fines to the Superior Court, Henry Sedgwick and Otto Arnold denied having bitten a policeman's finger and stealing his hat and badge in the scuffle.

Testimony from students and policemen revealed that the affray had been marked by a considerable use of indiscriminate epithets.
