police spokesman said. “There
are still some sporadic shots
from snipers in the area.”
Earlier, UPI cameraman
Tony Halik said he saw six
persons lying in a street “being
treated and handled as dead
persons—l assume they were
dead.”
Mayor Alfonso Martinez said
no plainclothesmen fired at the
student demonstrators who
were calling for labor union
reform, university reform, and
the release of “political priso
ners.”
However, news and photo
reporters who saw the action,
including a number of UPI
--GRIFFIN REALTY COMPANY
correspondents, said the uniden
tified men arrived in city
trucks and buses, addressed
each other with such titles as
“sergeant” and “lieutenant,”
and gave and received orders
like policemen or soldiers.
Uniformed police on the
scene referred to the men as
“diock brigades.”
The Presidential Palace said
the rioting began with students
of different political groups
brawling. A spokesman said
Communist, Trotskyite and
other leftwing groups were
mounting a protest march and
a confrontation occurred with
the rightwing political student

organization known as MURO.
The protest march began at
the 70,000-student National Po
lytechnical Institute—the scene
of the 1968 demonstrations that
brought 78 deaths, 40 of them in
a gun battle in the courtyard of
a housing development.
Thursday’s protest march
had only just begun when city
police fired tear gas bombs to
disperse the estimated 20,000
marchers. A UPI correspondent
reported from the scene that
“then groups of men jumped
from state trucks and buses
bearing no labels and charged
the students scattered in all
directions. I heard four shots.”
He said “the men in plain
dothes were very well orga
nized. I asked some of them
who they were and they would
not say anything. They made
gestures as if they would rough
me up if I persisted.”
