Where can I find a picture from Kent state when the hippie girl placed a flower in the soldiers rifle?

I didn't find an image, but I found a quote that might help.


(She was one of the 4 killed there.)





The biggest thing in the life of Allison Krause of Pittsburgh apparently was her boyfriend, Barry Levine of Valley Stream L.I. He dropped to the ground when the guardsmen opened fire and was unhurt. Miss Krause whose friends said she was on her way to class, did not get down. She was killed.





“She had just stopped to look around and see what was happening, “ an acquaintance said.





The most most frequent adjective friends used in describing the 19 year old art history major was “beautiful.” She had Dark curly hair and her face was described by a student as “Indian-like so proud.”





A friend, Karen Zabrucky, said that mss Krause’s parents had wanted her to marry a Jewish boy. (Barry is Jewish). When it was suggested to Miss Krause that religion was not important, she replied that it was important to her parents.





By all accounts, Miss Krause had no overriding interest in politics or revolution. She frequently carried a pet kitten around the Kent State campus. And last Sunday she placed a flower in a guardsman’s rifle barrel and said, “Flowers are better than bullets.”

Reply:check out the Kent State University website.
Reply:I don't think it's a girl. It's a guy. Sweater? Just over the ears blonde hair with a bit of wave, guardsman coming up from behind plucking them out?





It wasn't just one flower.





He put one in the muzzle of several rifles.





( The lad had pluck! )





You may want to check ' Images ' on the Yahoo home page, just above the search window.





From there, barring negative results, try United Press International. Well stocked stalwarts, those. Hope this helps.
Reply:Yes, I think you could find it at time.com, as I think it was originally published in Life Magazine.
