council. Following his speech, turmoil and
confusion ran riot throughout the hall.
Debate Is Hot
John Bolt Culbertson asked several
questions of Grimsley and Williams concerning
the eligibility of the two men.
Then J. Woodrow Lewis secured the floor
and said to Williams: "I demand that
you and the student council show proof
that Stokes and Adair will not graduate
next year."
Shouts and handclaps rocked the hall
after his demand Yancy McLeod then
rose to his feet and asked that the student
body request the student council to
reconsider their action. His request was
lost in the confusion. J. J. Brown made
a motion that student body sustain the
decision of the student council. Nigel
League immediately jumped up and demanded
that the motion be tabled. Williams
overruled motion and tabled as out
of order. McLeod then moved that student
body meeting adjourn until Saturday
and hear candidates' speeches at that
time. His motion was tabled.
League again rose to his feet and read
^rticle 5, section 2 of the constitution of
the student body, which declared that
business may be transacted by a majority
of those present.
Heated discussion arose at this time as
to whether declaring Stokes and Adair
eligible would be rverely business or an
amendment to the constitution. According
to the ruling by President Williams and
others, it was decidcd that it would be an
amendment and necessarily require a
two-thirds vote of those present.

Graveyard Search
Ends At Calaboose
These here fraternity initiations are
getting to be something fierce.
Three Furman University freshmen
with a hankering after fraternity affiliations
will think twice before they seek
names in Springwood cemetery again.
They were caught in the burial pleace
early one morning by city policemen making
their morning rounds and exposed
to the dangers and hardships of the local
calaboose until the reason for their wandering
around at night was explained.
The three unlucky aspirants were being
initiated into the Centaur club. As
they were performing the melancholy
duties thrust upon them by the men
higher up they were spotted by a custodian
of the peace. The men ran and the
officers gave chase, one giving up, one
being caught after a short chase, and the
other eluding the police until he tried to
jump a wire fence and was caught on the
top strand.
Fraternity brothers came to the rescue
and obtained their release. We wonder if
any more messages will be placed in
Springwood cemetery.

Straight Shots
Denn Baker conducting chapel exercises
with a Colt .45 in his hand I- Can
you imagine such a situation ? Such was
the case Thursday morning when two
members of the International Police visited
the campus and presented a very interesting
program, spiccd with an exhibition
of fancy shooting by one of thf
party.
Captain Firmin J. B. Van Audenhove
and Lieutenant Evarist F. De Meyer,
former Belgian army officers, representing
Belgium as members of the W. A. W.
E. C. Unit 28, International Police, were
the gentelemen instrumental in putting on
the rough and ready stuff in chapel. Coming
as a pleasant surprise at the end of a
very interesting talk by the captain, the
novel display of fancy shooting made a
big hit with the students.
Remarkable straight shooting was exhibited
by Captain Audenhove, with either
revolver or rifle. Shooting first from a
standing position, the captain changed
to difficult positions, shooting from on
his back and between his legs with the
same accuracy. One noteworthy hit was
made with a rifle, over the shoulder, aiming
by means of a mirror held by the
marksman. i
Cool nerve was evident in Lieutenant
Dc Meyer as he held several targets
around his face for the sharpshooter to
hit. The climax was reached when a
cigarette, held in the lips of the lieuten-l
ant was split in two by a freak shot,!
made by the captain while lying on his
back over a piano seat. ..
These two men arc at present engaged
in making a tour of the world. They left
Belgium in March, 1928, and have since I
toured Europe, the British Isles, Canada,
western United States, Mexico, and part
of the eastern Atlantic states. During this
journey, they have visited all the important
points iu the countries they havel
journeyed through, meeting leading citizens
and notabl :s.
Among the celebrities they have had the I
pleasure to meet in this country are: ExPresident
Coolidgc, President Hoover, I
Secretary of State Stimson, other members
of the capital group, members of the
Hollywood film colony, mayors, gover-l
nors and many others. The men speak I
English very well, considering the fact I
that they have been in this country only 1
a short time.
Among the adventures related by these I
men are several incidents among the I
bandit-infested wilds of lower Mexico.l
In one affair with the bandits, they un-l
fortunately had to shoot two bandits.
While touring Nicauraga they were captured
and held prisoners by Sandino'sl
men. But they smile at the mention of I
these experiences. j
After leaving Columbia, the Belgian
Caravan, the traveling name of the party,
will point toward Key West. Here they
plan to ship to Cuba and from there con-|
tinue their tour of the world.

Matron Locked Out
Of Coed Dormitory
u
The story of the man who bit the dog
was well illustrated Wednesday night
when Mrs. Grace Graham, matron of the
Woman's Building, came home at 12
o'clock and found herself locked out of
her own domain. This often happens to
a coed but this is the first time in the
history of the University that a matron
has been locked out.
Mrs. Graham states that on her return
from the Cotton Ball she walked up to
the front door and tried to open it. Not
succeeding in this but still hopeful, she
walked around to the side of the building
and tried to awaken some of the girls.
Maybe the girls were heavy sleepers,
maybe they weren't but anyway no one
answered to the call for help. After circling
the building several times without
success, Mrs. Graham found Judge;
through their combined efforts Verna
Ayer was awakened and she obligingly
opened the door.
