A battle between democratic and anti-Semitic students broke out at the law school of the University here, with the anti-Semites shouting: “Argentinians, yes; Jews, no.”

The battle is the first to occur since several years ago when anti-Semitic elements among the students were checked. The anti-Semitic group–which used bottles and other weapons in the flare-up-refers to itself as the “Nationalists-Peronists,” but is considered a part of the fascist Falange movement.
