THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, TUESDAY, DECEMBER 30, 1930 oe LACK OF ALCOHOL IN TUBERCULOSIS GERM NOTED BY SCIENTIST jj Deadliness of Disease May Be Charged to This Difference In Cells Cleveland, Dec. 30.—(?)—The tu- berculosis germ either lacks or strangely conceals a peculiar alcohol common to most living things and this may account for its deadliness. The missing alcohol is a sterol, a subsance which absorbs the benefits of sunshine and light, and not asso- ciated with drinkables. Discovery of the deficiency was re- ported today by Dr. Robert J.

COLLEGE STUDENTS ABOUT AVERAGE IN “MORAL TENDENCIES Grant Schools Have Dis- ciplinary Troubles Washington, Dec. 30.—()—College students apparently are no better and no worse than the country’s populs- tion at large. A study of moral conditions in the 69 land grant universities and col- leges, included in a survey of the in- stitutions by the federal office of education, has led it to that conclu- sion. Considerable space in the recently completed 1,800 page, two-volume re- port was given to problems of han- dling fraternities and sororities and students’ coriduct at social affairs, showing that the heads of a good many institutions experienced trouble with student drinking and behavior at dances. Drinking was listed as one of the chief trouble makers at 26 of the in- stitutions. Six colleges reported trouble from extreme types of danc- ing. Eleven reported a “great deal of trouble because of attendance at cafes and roadhouses after dances,” and some declared “withdrawal from halls to cars and rides after dances, the stag line and attendance at pub- lic dances” brought complaints, i “Action of alumni and guests from ; other colleges and high schools was | given fairly frequently as a problem | said the report. “Discourtesy to chaperons seemed to be a fairly common complaint. However, when one remembers the ease with which couples leave the dance hall, the handiness of the au- | tomobile and its powers of quick transportation and seclusion, one jcannot but wonder whether the chaperon is a figurehead.” The survey, begun in 1927 with a congressional appropriation of $117,- Survey Indicates That Land/ causing concern to college officials,” | &M! turned on.

Admirer of Woman Winnipeg, Man. Dec. 30.—(?)— Maybe the king of wanderers is going to settle down—at least he has Picked a queen. © J. Leon Lazarowitz, .25, known as the king of hoboes, en route to an international conference of his fol- lowers at Spokane, Wash., said in a letter received here today that his queen's name is “Mary” and that she lives in Superior, Wis. “She is my ideal,” wrote King Joe—more than that he did not divulge. Lazarowitz, bearing letters from kings, presidents, premiers and gov- ernors of many lands, who was given the “golden key to the city” when he visited Winnipeg last year, did not fare so well on this westward trip. In Regina, he was a guest of the city, but behind jail bars, after being arrested as a common tres- Passer. Wisconsin shipped potatoes to 27 states and to Cuba during the 1929- 30 season.
