Buddhists Tri Quang and Phap Tri. TOP OF THE WEEK: The ghetto called Watts was seething to a boil again, and News- week's Los Angeles bureau chief Karl Fleming, 38, pulled up at one eddying hot spot with staffers David Moberg, 22, and Philip D. Hager, 29. As Hager moved off to watch one Negro gang break into a liquor store, another young band attacked Fleming and Moberg. Four-by-4 timbers flew. Both men went down; neither knew what had hit him. Moberg escaped with a black eye and a bruised face. Fleming's jaw was broken and his scalp badly cut. He was still sprawled on the sidewalk when an ambulance came (photo). That he was beaten by Negroes in the streets of Watts was a cruel irony. In three years in Newsweek's Atlanta bureau, Fleming had covered the landmark battles of the Negro revolt from Albany, Ga., to Oxford, Miss., to Birmingham, Ala., and numberless way-stations whose datelines are now all but forgotten. He ducked bullets and brickbats, whiffed tear gas, brazened out threats on his life--and never was seriously injured. And, a North Carolinian by birth, he reported the black man's march down Freedom Road with insight and compassion. No journalist was more closely tuned into the Movement; once, when a Newsweek Washington correspondent asked the Justice Department to name some potential Dixie hot spots, the Justice man replied: 'Ask Fleming. That's what we do." And none did more to bring the story of the Negro revolt to the public in such vivid, thorough detail. That Fleming was hurt in the thick of the action was no surprise at all; his instincts have always led him where the action is. At the height of the Ole Miss riot, he borrowed a U.S. marshal's helmet, stepped out of the embattled administration building for a look and heard a .22-caliber sniper rifle fire three times. The bullets crunched into the doorjamb inches from his head. He looked at the holes, blinked and remarked with aplomb: "You know, if I were James Meredith, I wouldn't go to school with these people." Fleming reported Watts with the same skilled perception he brought to the Dixie beat. And when he was injured last week, the well-wishers who deluged his hospital room with messages included not only a governor, two U.S. senators, a John Bircher, a Communist and scores of friends--but those in Watts who understood. "Just tell him," a Negro woman said, choking back the tears, "we are terribly, terribly sorry. I hope he will forgive us." "The youths who assaulted Karl Fleming did a bad thing, said Negro author Louis Lomax. "They struck a dear friend who just happened to be white." It was an irony Fleming understood. When he came out of surgery, his head swathed in bandages, his twice-fractured jaw wired together, he spoke briefly with TV newsmen-- and revealed that both his wry humor and his perspective were undamaged. How did he feel? "It's been," he answered dryly, "a feast of chuckles all day." Yet moments later he added: "If I were younger and lived in Watts, I might be doing the same things.".
