BRIAN CHAODERTON- I A man who filed for citizen-ship papers only three days- ago may change his mind about becoming a Canadian after two thugs beat him over the head with a pop bottle and stole his wallet Thursday night. Mario Perkovic, 35, of 81 Metcalfe Street, in Canada five years 'from Italy, was followed for several blocks in Centre Town and attacked in the vestibule of his apartment "They hit me on the head with a bottle and I started to Weed like the hell." Mr. Perkovic said.

"Then one said 'give me your money or I'll kill you. After giving up his wallet which contained $15, Mr. Perkovic gave chase In his blood- spattered clothing, south along Metcalfe and east on Slater. He lost sight of his assailants when they cut through a parking lot behind the Beacon Arms Hotel. Mr.

Perkovic described the two men as young, about 25, with medium long and with the appearance of "street- bums." They were both over six feet and weighed about 175 to 200 pourids, he said. During the chase Mr. Per kovic appealed to two young persons to call the police. The two youths told him to call for himself, he said. "Canada Is a beautiful coun- Perkovic saidr'But there are so many bums and hippies." After a one-hour ride through the city with police In an at tempt to catch the bandits, Mr.

Perkovic said he was very dis appointed in the youths he saw. I just don't understand young people in Canada. They seem to live from day-to-day and don seem to have any future," he said. 'They just seem to live like animals." Two days ago I applied for Canadian citizenship, but I could change my mind or move," he added. After a short walk though the mall, Mr.

Perkovic had started home about 10.45 p.m. He noticed the pair following him and when he stopped in front of his apartment they rushed him as he opened the outer door. They hit him almost instantly, without warning, he said. The force of the blow gashed Mr. Perkovic's head and shat tered a three-quarter-inch plate gIasswindow in the inner door of the building.

He was released from the General Hospital later that evening.
