Kneier leave Nebraska and that

ing to the resolution.
Two members of the Mortar
Board advisory committee (faculty
members i will supervise the count

The resolution as recommended

ciety: "Be it enacted by the Student

LIBEL MATTER PRINTED
Anonymous Issue Contains
Scurrilous Remarks
About Faculty.
A
the
and
limil'! number of copies of
second issue of "With Kire
Sword" were distributed
among university students on
Tueaday venlnj. Dedicated to
nearly all of the organizations
which were condemned m the first
iMiie of Marcb 28. the anonymous
editors featured an alleged expose
of a supposed senior announcement
graft, of lar.. year.
About half of the second sheet
of the two page Issue was taken
up with scurrilous attacks upon
Prof. Roy Cochran, department of
histoiy: Dr. Rufus A. Lyman, dean
of pharmacy college, and Prof.
Clara Conklln. chairman of the ro
mance languages department.
The exposition of the handling
of the senior announcements last
year directly Inferred that mem
hcis of the student committee had
participated in crookedness of
some consequence, that Dean T. J.
Thompson was thoroughly aware
of the situation, and that Long's
and the Co-Operative book store
were implicated in the transac
tions.
Libel Action Involved.
Included in the -accusations of
the "Gadflies" concerning the an
nouncement activities of last year
were Charles Dox, Kldred Larson,
Merle Jones and Carl Olson. The
matter was said to have been
brought to light by an investigat
ing committee consisting of Lester
Schoene, winner of Harvard law
scholarship of last year; Marvin
Grimm an 1 DeForest West.
Dean H. H. Foster of college of
law stated that In his opinion the
matter contained in the last issue
of "With Fire and Sword" was
such that persons damaged there
by mould have causes for action
for libel and that possibly prosecu
tions for criminal libel could suc
cessfully be brought. He would
not express any opinion as to the
best manner in which to handle the
situation, but in the meantime de
plored any unnecessary publicity
as merely pandering to the ego
tism and vanity of the anonymous
assailants.
Use University Mail.
Tart of the circulars evidently
were distributed through the uni
versity mail, as a number of fac
ulty members received copies of it
through this channel. They were

Army Man Billed to Appear
Before Convication
This Morning.
Cot. George Fyroade, as'it
ant commandant of the Command
ant and General Staff school at
Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, will
talk on history at convocation, 11
a. m. today, in the Temple theater,
giving speical emphasis to the
Meuse-Aigonnc campaign tt the
World war. Colonel Jewelt is in
charge of the convocation. The
lcctuie will be illustrated with
slides.
Colonel Byroade is a graduate
of the United States army war col
lege and has been in the service of
the army since 1894. The school
at which he is stationed bears the
same relation to military training
that a graduate college docs to a
university. '
Campaign Important.
The Meuse-Argonne campaign,
of which Colonel Byroade will tell,
was one of the most important and
decisive battles of the whole war.
The territory between the Meusc
river and Argonne forest was a
most strategic point in that just
beyond this point was the only
convenient loute for conveying
supplies to the larger German
forces located on the Hindenburg
line, and at this point were sta
tioned Germany's reserve troops.
To capture and destroy the Ger
man railroaJ beyond this area
would be to bottle their main army
up without means of obtaining
supplies.
The allied forces sent 600,000
Americans to take the Argonne
district and it was here that the
Americans did some of their hard-
j est fighting. When the Yankees
i came within shelling distance of
tne German railroad the Germans
i'3al'i?d that they could hold out
no lnrer and the armistice was

ion that the alleged evils of our j
dog house are being magnified Ju.st i
as boys magnify flat feet in seek
ing excuses from military science."
Construction of the annex was
prompted by necessity rather thau
choice, the dean explained. "The
logical place to keep dogs is on the
roofs of buildings, lnterrogatiou of
university oi'ficials disclosed that
expansion pians did not include
building of a new pharmacy build
ing within ten years. Housing of
dogs in the "tower" was unsani
tary and dogs were essential to
physiological laboratory work;
construction of the animal on its
present location was, therefore, the
only feasible solution. Erection of
the annex was approved by uni

Appearance Poor
"Though I fully realize the ar
chitectural deficiencies of the an

it is almost as good as Pharmacy
building itself. Fortunately for the
critics, the annex is pretty well
bidden behind the bushes next the
sidewalk, and the fact tthat there
is no odor is another redeeming
feature. The building is wonder
fully equipped."
Teasing of the dugs by students
is chiefly responsible for the noise,
Dean Lyman stated, admitting also
that the dogs caused commotion
when they were being fed, or ac
corded human ' attention. "Dogs
will answer back you can't get
