Police in armored vehicles used tear gas and clubs to disperse 1,000 stone-throwing ethnic Albanians in Yugoslavia’s Kosovo province. The protesters were objecting to the trial of Azem Vlasi, former chairman of the Communist Party of Kosovo. He and 14 others are charged with organizing illegal protests against Serbians in the province.
