Serious disorders in which several Jews were injured by Nazi students forced postponement yesterday of examinations in the Medical Faculty of the University of Cluj.
The Nazis drove off or beat with cudgels and iron bars Jews attempting to enter the building. Professors intervened but were unable to restore order. The council of professors, summoned by the dean, decided to hold the next examinations under the protection of bayonet armed gendarmes.
