Harris, who was former chap lain of FannHouse fraternity, was "very highly regarded" among his fraternity brothers, FannHouse President John Olson said Monday. "There wasn't anything he, would n't do for anyone," Olson said, adding that "he was a deeply re ligious fellow." "He was quite an unusual fel low," Olson continued, "in that he was always going about doing kind things." CoL Charles Brewster, Ameri can chairman of the Jordan-Israel Armistice Commissions reported to the Commission Sunday that "it should be noted that the victim had most probably crossed the (truce) line unwittingly from Jordan and was at the time of his death well within the confines of Man's Land."

The bullet which struck him down, ac cording to a United Nations spokes man, was fired from the Jordan sector of Jerusalem. The diplomatic correspondent of the English language Daily Jeru salem Post said it was understood that Harris "was shot twice by direct aim" and that "one of the bullets lodged in his chest," ac cording to the investigation made by UN observers. Jordanians were quoted by the correspondent as saying Harris was "crawling towards the old city wall with something in his hand: which was taken to be his weap on." However, the UN investiga tion showed the object was Harris' camera. Jordanians alleged that Harris spoke to an Israeli solder, but the Armistice Commission report said that "from the place where the body was found, the deceased could est sympathy" to Harris' family. expressing the hope that lessons not have spoken to any soldier, No learned from the incident would j Israeli or Arab." rulr avniri similar wirrnrvp ! rorOWUea Area later, CoL Brewster extended "deep- Harris was shot and killed in- Lieufenant Governor lock, Bridle Dinner o Honor Warner Li.

Brewster said Harris was the "victim of a tragic error." Funeral services for Harris were held in the Israeli sector of Jeru salem. He was buried in the Anglican section of the Christian Cemetery in Ramallah, north of Jerusalem. Photographs were taken of the fun eral, consular officials said, and they were to be forwarded to Har ris' family. Fall Report Asked Sen. Carl Curtis Friday asked the State Department for a full report on Harris' death. He also requested that representations be made to the Jordan government for some form of reparation or compensation for the shooting. Cur tis pointed out to the Department that, although Harris had no of ficial connection with the federal government, he was on a government-sanctioned good-will trip. Jordanian officials turned the body over to the U.S. Consul in Jerusalem with appropriate ex pressions of deep regret. A spokes man for the Jordanians was re ported to have said a Jordan sentry at the Mt. Zion gate had shouted a warning to Harris to stop which he did not beed. Harris wrote recently in a letter to his FannHouse brothers that: "We in America have much to give these people in the Near East, but we have so much to gain from them too, in the way 01 love and understanding."

Caesar belongs to Max Kreit man, freshman in the College of Business Administration, but actu ally has been adopted by the en tire Zeta Beta Tau house where be has lived for nearly a month. At frequent intervals Caesar would leap up and start gnaw ing at hunks of the unearthed roots. He would then dart away to explore the unknown terrain, saddle bowlegs running and his ears flapping gleefully in the wind. Caesar would investigate the far reaches of the immediate neigh borhood. Many students on the campus; are already familiar w4th the lit tle black face and wagging tail. Caesar's friendly personality bab bles over when he sees any pass erby. "I have a bard time keep ing him from following the girls," said Kreitman. Caesar also loves to munch on buttons while some one holds him. In" each life some rain must fall and for Caesar this rain is in the form of a Hoover vacuum cleaner. This frightening piece of electrical equipment instills fear in Caesar's small - type soul. Immediately when he hears the sound f'the approaching Hoover, Caesar heads for the protective shelter of bis master's bed. Dick Fellman is the only one who hasn't been captivated by Cae sar's charms.
