The anti-Semitic students left the university grounds and attacked a Jewish passerby. At this point the police took a hand, and dispersed the demonstrators.

At Krakow University, Endek students held a demonstration on the campus and attacked Jewish students, injuring one severely.

At Grodno, anti-Semitic rioters smashed windows of synagogues and of four Jewish homes on Kazowin Street, a street which had been avoided during the Grodno riots of last June. During the trial this week of rioters accused of inciting the attacks of last June it had been testified the demonstrators deliberately avoided Kazowin Street fearing the Jewish porters who live there.

Anti-Jewish orders which broke out yesterday in the province of Posnania, which borders on Germany, spread further today. Incidents were reported in the townships of Ryczwol, Rogow, Wagrowiec, Oborniki, Leszno, Wronki, Rawicz and Czornkowo.
