Six killed in Bombay riots
BOMBAY, India - Bursts of police gunfire at rioters killed six persons and wounded at least 12 yesterday. Mobs burned down the main railroad station and police declared dusk-to-dawn curfew.
Police Commissioner E. S. Modak blamed the rioting on the paramilitary Shiv Sena organization, which two weeks ago began a campaign to outst non-Maharashtrians from jobs in Maharashtra State.
Sirhan lacks full jury
LOS ANGELES — The complete jury in the murder trial of Sirhan B. Sirhan was yet to be chosen, but his defense lawyers have already conceded he fired the shots that killed Sen. Robert F. Kennedy and said they don't expect Sirhan to be acquitted.
Defense lawyers will contend that Sirhan's "diminished capacity" did not make him fully responsible for his actions the night after Sen. Kennedy won the California Democratic presidential primary.
BERLIN - Communist East Germany said yesterday it will forbid members of the West German armed forces and electoral college from using land routes into and out of West Berlin beginning Saturday.
West Berlin land routes closed
Officials in the 1,038-member electoral college said they had no intention of canceling their scheduled March 5 meeting in West Berlin to elect a successor to President Heinrich Luebke. The college has met in West Berlin every five years since 1954, always under Communist protest but never before under harassment.

Be a leader of men
Bull, known as Rick Atkinson to University administrators, lead members of the First Artaud Romantic Tautological Society in a demonstration aimed at a Marine recruiting table manned by, strangely enough, Capt. James Custar and his sidekick, S. Sgt. David C. Craft.
The table was stripped of several stacks of free literature by the society members who passed it out to on-lookers.
Caught in the spirit of the occasion, Capt. Custar, gallantly refused to circle his wagons,

saying, "This is the first time anybody helped us. Cleaned us out."
As Bill Berkowitz, New York senior, Don Jenkins, Kansas City, Mo. junior and Atkinson passed out the pamphlets, Atkinson's wife, Liz, explained the demonstrations as "revolutionary theater."
At one point the male society members did their own version of Marine calisthenics.
Berkowitz, campus hippie-in-residence, spiiced, "Be a leader of men! Be a lady Marine." Berkowitz hawked Marine newsletters, claiming they were the latest from the underground press.
"If you don't stop them in South Vietnam, we'll have to stop them in South Topeka," Atkinson yelled.
Frank Burge, Kansas Union director, even dropped by, stopped for a minute and talked to Liz Atkinson, inquiring about Rick's cold, and smiled a great deal. Burge was recently listed on a society handbill along with singer Jimi Hendrix as a "real person." The society had not reserved space in the Union for the demonstration Burge said.
Not so for the jut-jawed, straight-shouldered, apple-pie-eyed staff sergeant, who grumbled, "These are the same troublemakers who were up at Washburn the other day. Just thought I'd let you know."
