    "ocrText": "TELECON\nMr. Kissinger/Dorothy Zinburg\n11:00 p.m., May 7, 1970\nK:\nI'm going to see a delegation tomorrow afternoon.\nZ:\nOne group is calling at 4:30 -- a different group. When I left\nyou, everybody was locked up in a faculty meeting. I called the students\nI knew and tried to call off the picketing. I realized there was nothing\nto be accomplished there. I tried to make it clear you were trying to\ntrade with them. If they could call off the picketing, you would see them.\nI said why don't you think about it and call XIXXX\nhim.\nK:\nThis they did; however, they have not been given a time on\nFriday yet. I wonder whether they think they are being given the run-\naround. Secondly, the Secret Service insists that I stay at the White\nHouse tonight.\nZ:\nThey don't expect you to be at home.\nK:\nThey have to call back in and give us the names of the students\nSO we can clear them thr ough the gate. You are welcome to sit in\non any of these student group meetings.\nZ:\nI would like to -- the business students and the other students.\nK:\nThe business students are on Saturday morning. I don't know\nthey are having a mass rally there. You have no time in the afternoon.\nK:\nI am seeing the Harvard people. Then I am seeing the Columbia,\nBryn Mawr, Johns Hopkins, etc. en masse. I am going to see them\nat 4:00 and move the business school students to some other time.\nZ:\nIf you meet with any other student group, let me know. I plan\nto go to the Harvard caucus tomorrow at 9:00, but will be free from\n10:30 on.\nK:\nDo you think they will think I am betraying them if I am not\nin my apartment.\nZ:\nI don't know. The young lady said, 'you mean he is going to\nbe there?' It was almost as if they thought you wouldn't be there. I\ndon't think they will feel betrayed because of the fact that they know\nyou are willing to see them. I have made dozens of calls."
