For the second time within a week Jewish students at the University of Warsaw were attacked by their colleagues last night.

Two Jewish students, Isajas Warn and Alice Neufeld, were injured. The attack occurred in the Anatomical Institute where the anti-Semitic National Democratic students were incited by Professor Grzybowski who is also a deputy in Parliament.

The National Democratic professor incited the students to demand of the head of the Anatomical Institute that dissection work be carried on apart from the Jews.

The incitement reached such a stage that the Jewish students were compelled to flee from their attackers, under the protection of Dean Dabrowski.

Twenty-five Jewish students were injured at Warsaw University on November 9th and riots have been current in Warsaw and other University towns throughout the week.
