¶1C. A. 6th Cir. Application for stay presented to Mr. Justice Stewart, and by him referred to the Court, denied. Mr. Justice Douglas, believing that the Ohio anti-rioting statutes, Ohio Rev. Code Ann. §§ 2923.52 to 2923.54 (Supp. 1970), on their face seem overly broad and prima facie infringe on freedom of expression protected by the First Amendment, would grant stay for reasons stated in his dissenting opinion in Younger v. Harris, 401 U. S. 37, 58.
