SEEKS CITY OF FARA
Archeologists to Excavate
Suoposed Site Where
Ark Was Built.
Thought to be the site where
Noah constructed the Ark before
the deluge, the city of Fara in
Mesopotamia, once the ancient
Sumerian city of Shurrapak. is
being excavated by an archcolo
Slcai expedition of the University
of Pennsylvania, following a grant
by the Iraq department of anti
quities. The site of the excavation is
eituatcd in the center of a desert
about 100 miles from the Chaldean
Ur of Antiquity, and the work is
being carried on under the direc
tion of Dr. Erich Schmidt, an ex
perienced archeologist, who will
continue operations until late
spring.
According to Horace H. F.
Jayne. director of the University
of Pennsylvania museum, "It is
generally accepted that the Bibli
cal account of the deluge is de
rived from the Babylonian story of
the flood. In recent years the
joint expedition of the British
museum and the university mu
seum at Ur has brought to light
evidence which seems to confirm
the historical existence of a flood
in the Mesopotamian Valley.
"The texts generally speak of
five cities which existed before the
deluge," Director Jayne further
explained, "and of these, the city
of Shurrupak, or the modern Fara,
was the native town of Uta-Nap-bistim,
the Biblical counterpart of
Noah. Here, according to accounts,
the Ark was built."

"Hopkins forever!" has been
adopted as the slogan of the
newly-organized Old Timers' club,
of the Johns Hopkins university, it
was learned recently. It is alleged
that Bob Bortner and Mac Halsey
are the principal founders of the
group, which, apparently, main

At the initial meeting of the
f "Old .Timers" it was especially
made clear that each member who
is to be officially accepted into
the ranks must primarily prove
that he is able to successfully
.smoke a strong cigar without dis-
jrtaying any after-effects what
ever. Must Fail Course to be Eligible.
However, that seems to be a
minor point, compared to the eligi
bility regulation. In addition to
having to be a senior, every Old
Timer, to be recognized as a mem
ber in good standing in the new
club' at Homewood, must have
flunked one subject or dropped a
course "iy request" of the pro
fessor. Or, better still, it was ex
plained, he must produce evidence
from the dean's office that he

he became nationally known.
With Dr. Coffey as a feature
speaker and the possibility that
other nationally known livestock
men may be put on the program,
prospects are bright for a large
attendance for feeder's day, it was
predicted. Last year over 2,000
Nebraska farmers and their wives
visited the agricultural college for
the day to break all time attend
ance records.
Women attending the college
last year were given a special pro
gram in the afternoon and this
feature is again planned for this

mates that there were more than
300 women attending the meeting

SMOKING BILL IS
SENT ON WAY TO
ANOTHER READING
(Continued from Page 1.)
bill would do nothing which has
not already been done or could
easily be done by faculty ruling,
Senator J. A. Axtell of Fairbury
introduced a substitute measure to
prohibit drinking and smoking in
the buildings and on the grounds
of the university, normal schools,
high schools, and in dormitories,
fraternities and sororities houses
and in the buildings or on the
groups of all public, private,
church or parochial schools of the
state.
Following a lengthy oration by
Senator Axtell and considerable
discussion in the chamber, the
substitute was defeated 6 to 26.
The six senators supporting the
more drastic measure were Axtell,
Easton, McGowan, Reed and Scott.
When someone questioned a pos
of Omaha why his bill prohibited
smoking and permitted drinking,
Senator Johnson of Cheyenne, au
thor of the original bill, said that
drinking was already prohibited
and added that he had received
telegrams asking him to stand by
the original measure.
When someone question the pos
sibility of enforcing the bill Scott
of McCook rose to state that uni
versity authorities could be forced
to enforce the bill if the seventeen
members of the senate who voted
against indefinitely postponing ac
tion on university smoking should
choose to block university appro
priations. Much discussion followed the de
feat of Senator Axtell's substitute.
Much of the time was snent in lok
ing and ragging on the existing
conditions and possibility of en
forcing any prohibition which
should be adopted. The senate ad
journed at noon with no action
taken on the original bill and with
two or three qualifying amend
ments before the house.
Consider Amendment.
The afternoon session opened
with the consideration of an
amendment to the original bill in
which Senator Rolla C. Van Kirk
of Lincoln proposed that the bill
be worded so as to apply on'y to
to 'Flunk9 Course
Johns Hopkins Club
the prime purpose of the Old Tim
ers' club. The group expects also
to study the conditions and meth
ods in grading and classroom pro
cedure, so that it may remedy the
exigencies and undesirable condi
tions which are believed to exist
here. And, ceaseless efforts will
be made to see that those in the
club who "busted" courses are
passed by the instructors con
cerned. "How influential our work will
be cannot be ascertained now,"
said a charter member, a "five
year man," whose name cannot be
revealed. "However, we firmly be
lieve the Old Timers' club will
prove a God-send to the Home
wood campus."
50 on List Now; Expect 100.
Fifty students attended the
initial meeting, it was learned.
However, the deluge of applica
tions f-ir membership in the so
ciety indicates that the future roll
will list nearly 100 names of "old
timers" who have tasted "flunks"
in one course at least.

students, faculty members and
others connected with the schools
where smoklnr was to be pro
hibited. After three readings of
the bill with .the amendment, a
considerable jangle as to the mean
ing of Van Kirk's amendment and
two Indecisive votes, the amend
ment was lost on a standing vote.
Following the defeat of tne Van
Kirk amendment, Senator Axtell
proposed an amendment to nrovide
expulsion from school for students
and dismissal from the faculty for
instructors who should ba found
guilty of violation of the law. This
amendment was Immediately de
feated. Further ragging and joking back
and forth between the senators
with many of them falling to ad
dress the chair took place befoiu
any further progress was mado
with the business at hand.
Motion was then made to ad
vance the Johnson bill to third
reading minus all amendments.
Someone called for a division; an
other called for a roll call vote.
The roll call vote resulted in the 23
to 9 victory for the bill.
Fire Hazard seen.
Van Kirk explained his vote in
timating that ha was voting for
the anti-smoking provision be
cause of the fire hazard at the uni
versity rather than because he
felt smoking is an evil. Axtell
qualified his vote, explaining that
if he couldn't get all he wanted
(meaning- his defeated substitute
of the morning session), he would
take what he could get and vote
"yea-" . .
Dunne- tne discussion ana vote
Senator Rodman asked why it
would not be Advisable to tack a
pending measure against exces
sively loud laughter and other dis
turbances on Sunday onto the end
of the anti-smoking: bill. He
voted "nay" on the motion to ad
vance the bill to third reading.
Senator Randall questioned
whether it would not be advisable
to prohibit all smoking In auto
mobiles, as had been done in
Yugoslavia. He also voted "nay. '
During the deiiDerations or we
senate a group of students
crowded the rear entrance of the
chamber. One of their number
said that they added their support
to the ""nays ' on an proposals.
There was no disturbance except a
little cheering at the battering
back and forth between the senate
members.

STUDENTS PLEA FOR
RELIEF FROM DRILL
Petition Presented With
10,100 Names by 53
Representatives.
. . . (The Pennsylvanlan.)
Claiming that the students will
bear the brunt of the next war
and should refuse to participate
unless every congressman who
votes for it and every dollar or
capital for its promotion is con
scripted first, Nathaniel Weyl, Co
lumbia university student ana
chairman of the Intercolegiate
Student council's anticompulsory
R. O. T. C. committee, described
the adventure of the fifty-three
students who went to Washington,
D. C, recently with a student peti
tion to lobby against compulsory
R. O. T. C.
"We carried a petition signed by
10,100 students in 56 colleges ex
pressing strong opposition to com
pulsory military training. We were
entertained by Senators Frasier,
Brookhart, Copeland and Davis
who spoke to us briefly," said
Weyl.
The delegation was composed of
such student leaders as Charlotte
Tuttle, daughter of the republican
candidate for governor of New
York and student at Vassar; Ken
neth Mieklejohn of Wisconsin and
Yale; Howard Mellali, editor of the
Harvard Crimson; John Powell of
Swarthmore, and a delegation of
twenty-five Swarthmore students.
The students paid their own way
to Washington and represented
eleven colleges.
Women's colleges took part "be
cause college women are opposed
to war. and find it impossible to
reconcile military training with
the Kellogg pact," said Miss Tut
tle. The lengthy petition stressed
the propagandists nature of mil
itary training in idealizing war,
its inconsistency with the purpose
of the Kellogg peace pact, and the
fact that the "compulsory feature
indicates that the opinion of the
majority of students stand op
posed to it and constitutes its own
confession of failure."
