Three members of the Law college who broke faith with their group to the extent of assisting the Engineers in repairing the dirig ible E' 27, partially destroyed by fire in a near-riot Wednesday morning, were summarily punished during the intermission between ten and eleven o'clock classes yesterday morning. The irate lawyers forced the cul prits, Wendell Cameron, Robert Pow ell, and Arch Weaver, to run a gaunt let of padules as atonement for their misdemeanor. A double rank of pad-dle-wielders lined the sidewalk south of the Administration building to take part in the ceremony. A con siderable number of spectators were attracted to the scene by the vicious "thwack! spat! thwack!" of the instruments of torture. A large group of Engineers gath ered for the occasion, in anticipation of further attempts to wreck the di rigible, but no trouble developed be tween members of the two colleges at that time.

Foster, dean of the College of Law, has asked permission to grant diplomas to its graduates who complete the course in seven se mesters providing they have attended one summer session during their course.

Attorney General s Opinion The attorney general's opinion in full, as quoted by Frost was as fol lows: "Allow me o say in answer to the question asked by Mr. Foster that in my opinion the proposed plan meets the requirements of the sta tute as to the time when the several courses of lectures shall be given. "If the other requirements of the statute governing such schools are complied with as fully I have no doubt tliat the medical college t Omaha is a medical college or school Li good standing within the nanin? of section 8162 complied statutes of Nebraska for 1922."

A. D. house raided last night in a renewal of the ancient fued be tween the engineers and lawyers. Po lice were summoned to stop the fight ing at the P. A. D. house, and fire men dispersed the mob outside by the use of water. The trouble started about ten o'clock when the lawyers drove up in a machine and attacked the dirigible constructed by engineers in front of the Adminiistration building. Engin eers left their positions in the labor atories and huiried to the scene. They organized into a mob and headed for the P. A. D. house where they surprised the lawyers in the act of carrying eggs down stairs in readi ness for the attack. They proceeded to scatter them in a somewhat broken condition about the house. Cause Damage In the course of the struggle a window was broken out and several pieces of furniture were broken. Riot calls were sent in by residents of the neighborhood and 7 or 8 po licemen were sent down to quelch the riot. They had some difficulty in keeping the engineers from going in en masse to drag out the lawyers who they believed were in hiding in the house. Someone, evidently seeing the flare of a torch carried by the engin eers, sent in the fire alarm. The trucks left but returned a few min utes later and the firemen used their equipment to disperse the mob which had gathered to witness the battle. Many onlookers were soaked and the crowd was soon dispelled. Virtue and Wilson Tubbed Clarence C. Virtue and Hugh Wil son, the two lawyers taken from the house were taken to the campus and ducked in the Pharmacy pool, around which the engineers gathered to plan further aggressions. They then went to the Delta Theta Phi house in search of more lawyers. They were unsuccessful in finding any of the men wanted so left the house undamaged. It is estimated that the damage done in the P. A. D. house will total $1,000, including broken doors, win dows and furniture and damage done to floors and rugs. The dozen lawyers in the house at the time of the raid had locked the doors in anticipation of the attack but the indigu&iit fcuKuicets Luuke doors and windows to force admitt ance. It was in the course of the search of lawyers believed by engin eers to be hiding in the house, that the damage was done. Mickey Aids Professor Clarke E. Mickey came to the aid of the police in stopping the roit by admonishing his engin eers to go back and take care of their laboratories and leave the settlement of tlie lawyers with the proper autho rities. The men left the house and re turned to the campus but were soon on their way to the Delta Theta Phi house to get every lawyer they could find. Bill Matschulla, house man ager, used his argumentative ability to talk the gang out of making such a mess of their house as they did of the P. A. D. house. A compromise was made whereby the engineers agreed not to destroy any property if allowed to make a thorough search of the house for lawyers. None were found so they left without further fighting. Four Delta Theta Phis, Duke Jones, Chet Irwin, Walter Schrnn, and Dwight Rissler were picked up on the street and ducked in a mudhole back of Morrill Hall. Hugh Wilson, P. A: D., was ducked in one on R. street. Camera Mea on Job Camera men were on the scene after the riot taking motion pictures of the P. A.
