Believe Anarchists Plotted to Injure University Nigkt Goat Insidious plotting by secret repre sentatives of the Third Internationale, Moscow, Russia, is suspected by at tendants to the goat which was im ported from Scandinavia to appear in the University Night program Satur day night Traces of pluxotctrachanesoluline, newly discovered poisonous compound which leaves no tnsto, have been found by attending veterinaries nt the College of Agriculture. Suspicion was placed on conspiring radicals only after inquiry at downtown pharma ceutical dispensaries showed that a suspected anarchist has purchased one milligram of the poison only Monday. Certainty as to the motives for the poisoning has not been announced, ibut it is thought that no malicious attempt was made to destroy one of the leading characters in the pro gram. It is thought instead of this that the goat merely happened to be the victim of the alien disturber when he sought to discover the degree of effectiveness of the new compound. Food was taken by the weakened animal only after fifty-seven varie ties of voracious food were placed be fore it It had gone so long without vitamines that its ivory horns had turned a sickly yellow. The almost perfectly straight wool was shriveled to kinkiness, and the growth of hair was stimulated, greatly weakening the animal. Raw Grape-nuts, lacking prepara tion of any kind, was the only kind of food for which the goat evinced even the slightest desire. After consuming thirty-two ounces of the food under careful watch of attendants, strength began to return to the animal, and he was able to regain his feet His first action was to make a weak butting motion toward the can in which his food had been placed. His next reaction was a feeble sim ulation of the dramatic action through which he was to go in acting in the prologue of the performance.

This scLjo! is for the consideration of proper dress for women for all occasions. The "Charm School," as it is known, u not intended to be a style show; the object is merely to call attention to inconsistencies of dress and to cor rect them. The school believes that true charm does not come in a moment The veneer of culture is sometimes so thin that it "shows through" when a person talks during a musical pro gram, or gets up and walKs out aur ing a speech.

FOSCHTMAN WILL BE KEPT AT HOSPITAL Two more University students, a man and a woman, were reported to be ill yesterday, but it is not cer tain that they are infected with small pox. Although only one real case has been reported since several hundred students were exposed a week ago, the danger is not past and every precaution against the disease should be taken, according to Dr. R. A. Lyman. "If a student finds himself suffer ing from chills, disorders of the stomach, pains in any part of the body, or a bad headache, he should stay in his room and reported to auth orities at once. All of these are symptoms of small-pox and should be carefully watched," said Dr. Lyman yesterday. Lloyd Foschtman, pharmacy fresh man who was removed to the city isolation hospital Wednesday is re ported to be no better. Dr. Chapman, stated that he thought he could let the patient out in a few days, but since then there have been develop ments, and he will have to remain at the hospital for at least two weeks more. "The only precaution that can be taken is for every student who has not already been vaccinated to be vaccinated now," said Dr. Lyman. "If a person has been inoculated in the last three or four years, or has had smallpox at any time, he ia not likely to take the disease." Nearly twelve hundred have been vaccinated at the University Health Office in the last ten days, and more are expected to receive treatment now that cases are being reported. A new shipment of vaccine was re ceived last week. Vaccinating is also being done free of charge at the City Health Office at Tenth and Q streets.

"Kiner Olaf." by Elgar. will be pre sented soon by the University Chorus, according to Carrie B. Raymond, di rector. The exact date has not yet been set. "Kine Olaf" is an ancient legend dealing with the conversion of the people to the Christian religion.

LEGION THINKS NEBRASKA RIGHT Lincoln Post Commends Uni versity for its Stand on Stu dent Military Drill. OPPOSES CIRCULATION OF BLANSHARD ARTICLE Lincoln Post No. 3 of the Ameri can Legion unanimously passed a res olution yesterday against the posi tion taken in an article by Paul Blan shard which appeared in a recent number of the Nation, and which has been reprinted and circulated on the campus by students. The article was a criticism of the R. O. T. C. system and the construc tion placed upon it under the Morrill Act, the University of Nebraska unit being used as a typical regiment. The resolution follows: "Whereas, certain insidious propa ganda has been spread about our Slate University and its environs in an attempt to arouse a sentiment against military training, and the R. O. T. C, and, "Whereas, this propaganda is largely the output of certain agitat ors from without the State, and not the protest of numbers of Nebraska students, and, "Whereas, misstatements relating to military training, the R. O. T. C, and the sentiment of the students in general have been made Be it resolved, that the American Legion, Post No. 3 of Lincoln, Ne braska, by its executive committee, does herewith submit the following: The American Legion believes that the proper interpretation of the in tent of the Morrill Act has been giv en by the University of Nebraska, and with two or three exceptions, by the other land-grant colleges of our country, in requiring military train ing of all physically fit students, un less excused for cause. "The American Legion knows that the representatives of the land-grant colleges in convention assembled, unanimously approved the existing system of military instruction. "The American Legion .would again go on record as most strongly opposed to any propaganda designed to arouse sentiment against recog nized patriotic American ideals and customs, and does hereby heartily commend the University of Nebra ka for its consistent stand on the ques tion of military training in the R. O. T. C. of the University of Nebraska. Major Sidney Erickson, professor of military science and tactics, when asked for his opinion of the resolu tion yesterday, said, "I think the res olution is a good thing. The Legion always has been in favor of any igency in the Morrill Act, which stip ulates compulsory military training for all males in the school. Mr. Blanshard states that the Morrill Act ?ays nothing of compulsory training, but I think he refuses to realize that when the act was made, and when Universities were new, every course was prescribed and there were no jlectives . Because of this, the mak ers of the Morrill Act in 1862 did not ay military training was compulsory, but just entered it in the list of nre cribed courses. Members cf the Law College have told ma that thii point would be upheld in court.' NEBRASKA SWIMMERS WIN Defeat Kama Agfiea in Dual Meet By Clo Margin.

Castings Are Made in Engineering Foundry Metal was poured in. the mechan ical eng:neering foundry for the first time this semester, yesterday morn ing. About one ton of iron was heated and poured, and about fifty castings were made, of which only two or three were of large size. F. L. Overstreet, instructor in mechan ical engineering, was in charge. Each cross weighs about twenty five pounds. One cross is forged in one piece, the others are plates in the shape of a cross, but joined by rivets. The inscriptions on the inside are kept in preservation by a waxy sub stance which chemists have not yet identified.

Chancellor Benton, Professors Church and Aughey were the teach ers I remember their names best, as I was in their classes. George ; Howard, William Snell, and Clarence Kiiotlc-s, were the names ol tne young men in the class; it is possible that one or more of them may still be there." "So good was the reception," writes E. R. Wiggin, Waukegan. Wis consin, who received his master's de gree in mechanical engineering in 1313, "that I could hear the speaker crinkle the paper as he was reading, and hear him breathe." S. M.

"As clear as if they were in the room, the voices from Nebraska reached us last night as we enjoyed the Charter Day pro gram," writes "Sam." "Herb" sup plements his brother's comment by adding that "It is marvelous to think that I was hearing some of my pro fessors as clearly or more so than I heard them in their classrooms." Thirty-eight alumni clubs in as many cities throughout the United States met on the evening of Febru ary 16 to "listen in" to the program broadcast by their alma mater.
