Charle Harris, seek la agron
omy who dropped out of the Uni
versity last semester to represent
his borne town, Lebanon, Nebr.,
on a good-will trip to the Arab
Republic of Lebanon, was killed
Friday in no-man's land near Zion
Gate in Jerusalem.
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."

stantly while he was between the
Israeli and Arab truce lines which
divide the city of Jerusalem. 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.

In his statement at the Com
mission meeting Sunday, Brew
ster said the no-man's-land "is an
area which is forbidden to all
persons and therefore a most dan
gerous spot."
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."
A Farm House member said that
was a point Harris continuously
stressed in his letters to them.
Conscientious
Harris, was an exceptionally good
student, conscientious and helpful, j
said Dr. F. D. Klein, professor ;
agronomy.
Harris was also a student in the
Cotner School of Religion. He was :
president of Ag Interdenomina-1
ticnal Fellowship, treasurer of Ag;
YMCA, secretary of the YM Board j
of Management and a member of
Agronomy Club, Cotner Student
Team and Ag Reiigious Council.;
Harris had not definietely de-j
cided what he was going to do
after his graduation, but a fratern
ity brother said he was planning
to be a kind of missionary. He
learning "about the people them
selves wer there." !
A graduate of the Curtis School
of Agriculture, Harris worked two
years before entering the Univer
sity. He also worked during the
summers.

Calmly watching the removal of
a hedge, as an unofficial side
small beagle puppy named Cae
sar. 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. His only comment,
