STUDENTS HURL
ACID INTO THE
BALLOT BOXES
University of Minnesota
Had Its Own Way of
Getting Into Limelight
of College Rioting

Minneapolis, MINI, April "a
(UP)-The normal academic calm
of the University of Minnesota
had vanished to-day in series of
riotous student elections climaxed
by acid hurting that injured four
students, two so seriously they
were confined to the hospital.
Carl Yapffe, Brainerd, MINI, was
identified to-day by fellow students
as the youth who tossed a milk
bottle of sulphuric acid into a bal
lot box, showering acid over four
poll watchers.
Physicians said the condition of
none was serious but that scars
might be left. The acid tossing
was the latest incident in a tumul-
tuous week of elections already
marked by sluggings, ballot box
thefts and publication of an un-
authorized political newspaper.
What action would be taken had
not been determined.
The acid throwing occurred in
a special election called after stu
dent raiders had carried off ballot
boxes in a battle during a vote
earlier in the week. The second
election also was called no contest
when it was found the acid
thrower succeeded in destroying a
quantity of ballots.
