Syndicate: BELGRADE / HAPPY BIRTHDAY MR PRESIDENT


    YESTERDAY, on august 20, belgrade students organized action in order
to give a "stafeta" * to president slobodan milosevic on his 56
birthday. of course, the action has been inspired by the same ritual in
past decades, when on may 25 whole country celebrated TITO`s birthday.
there was also one more "joke" -  "stafeta" started at 15,05 (the
official time of tito`s death)

POLICE forces stooped the students, violently, as usual, and three
students have been beaten.

"happy" birthay mr president!!!!!!

every year by youth through all country, in order to be given to tito,
