Trolley poles were jerked from the wires and torpedoes were placed on the tracks of those still able to proceed. ‘The explosion of these added to the yells of the students and the honking of horns raised a terrific din. Upon the arrival of police the students fled to the campus and quickly closea the gate behind them. John Barber, 20, New Rochelle, N. Y., was the only one caught. “Examination Pfl‘iod neurosis” was the explanation of the outburst given by one veteran policeman.
