East German Guard Shot
(N.Z.P.A.-Router—Copyright) BERLIN, June 19.
East German border guards yesterday shot and apparently killed one of their own colleagues. He was running after a group of refugees trying to escape to West Berlin through a tunnel under the border wall. The five escapers—three women and two men—were caught by the border guards before they could reach the entrance of the tunnel.
