STUDENTS ON STRIKE
DRASTIC POLICE ACTION
YOUNG MAN SHOT DEAD
BELGRADE, February 2. (Received Feb. 3, at 9 p.m.) Three hundred students to-day barricaded themselves in the university buildings and declared a hunger strike as a protest against the treatment of fellow students allegedly engaged in Communist activities, and at present confined in a concentration camp. The police stormed the building but encountered resistance. They fired revolvers, killing Mirka Szrentitch, a younger brother of Jugoslavia's leading writer on economics. Six students were seriously injured.
