Nazi students at the University of Breslau have proclaimed a boycott of lectures by the only remaining Jewish professors at the institution. At a special meeting of the medical students, at which Jewish students were denied admission by Nazi troopers who refused to let them enter the hospital to attend their lectures, it was voted to boycott lectures given by Professors Fraenkel and Bielschowsky, both of whom are converts and exempt from dismissal on account of their war service records.
