TERRORIST BOMB
Seven Hurt In : Hong Kong (N.Z.P. A.-Reuter—Copyright) HONG KONG. Nov. 16. Seven Chinese civilians were injured last night by a terrorist bomb shortly after a high Government official urged residents to step up their vigilance against Communist agitation. The renewed violence erupted in the western district of Hong Kong island as ballistics experts were examining a suspected bomb in the area. A Government spokesman said a bomb thrown from the rooftop of a building exploded in the street some 100 yards from where the experts were working. After the explosion, about 150 people assembled on a road near the scene, the spokesman said. They ignored police warn ings to leave, so the police fired five rounds of tear gas to disperse them.
