Despite the rigorous measures taken by the university authorities, compelling every student when entering the university to produce an identification card, riotous scenes against Jewish students were repeated today at the technical institute. One Jewish student was beaten.

Handbills were distributed demanding the expulsion of the Jewish students from the university. A serious outbreak took place in the chemical institute, the superintendent requesting the Jewish students to leave the hall in order to calm the rioting students. A number of Jewish students were beaten up.
