Scope and content
Item is one of two photographs illustrating what Stephen Archibald called a "proto-demonstration" in the winter of 1967. Michel Guite, a Dalhousie student and the owner of the sports car in the photograph, had for some time been ignoring the campus security guard's requests to purchase a parking pass, which was a relatively new requirement on campus. The security guard eventually called a tow truck to have the car removed. When a group of young men in the Student Union Building noticed the tow truck driver breaking into the car, they shifted some furniture outside and resumed their card game while blocking the truck.
