Rutherford and. with the exception of a few minor improvements which were not on the plars, approximately 19 have been accepted, John E. Downes, school supervisor, said today. The school authorities decided to makes public the information rela- tive to the reasons for the origina: rejection of the plans offered by Warren-Holmes Powers Co. of Lan- sing, Mich., since there have been rumors that if the Duilding were constructed on the original plans it would cave in. Although the building inspector and C. H. Baldwin, a corsulting en- gineer, pointed out several places in the building where beams, columns and tresses were not strong enough to hold the roof, Auditorium Bal- rony and Stairs Supervisor Downes xpressed the opinion that even if hese were not improved, the maller columns and braces would have been strong enough to care fov the weight put upon them. Building Inspector Rutherford wrote a five page letter to Super- visor Downes advising him of the need for changes and expressed fear that if the building were construct- | =d as originally planned there would be a question of safety.

Montreal is the port where most Swedish immigrants land when en- tering Canada. Most of them go trom that eity to British Columbia or 1o the western wheat fields. The Lutheran church being the leading | church’ of Sweden, it is felt likely that an emmigrants’ home will be | 1l l valuable at this city, and that there | is need for a Lutheran church there. Dr. A{:lquisl will investigate both situations. Seneca Club Planning For Baseball Season The Seneca A. C. a newly formed organization has started plans for! 1he baseball season and rooms have been secured in the Spinetta bulld- ing on Main street.

This action was taken to conform with the decision given yesterday in court by Sir Harry T. Eve, judge of the chancery divielon. The justice enjoined the council from proceed- ing further in its deposing of Gen- cral Booth until he had been given opportunity to place his own case before the adjudicating body. Tomorrow's action will be in the form of a resolution conveying the invitation to General Booth. The American army commander, Miss Evangeline Booth, was not poesent at today's conference. She was suffering from a slight cold, but expected to be able to attend the formal session tomorrow. Miss Booth is considered by many councillors to be the outstanding candidate for her brother's post of command. Movie Star Photos Are No Longer Free Hollywood, Cal., Jan. 31 P — Movie fans no longer will get auto- graphed photographs of their film favorites free of charge. The association of motion picture producers ruled at a meeting yester- day, that hereafter the deluge of fan mail would be checked by an- swering requests for the coveted photographs with a card suggesting that a nominal price be sent to pay for the picture. The ever mounting cost, which was declared to have grown into a tremendous item for the movie studios and their stars, was given as the reason for the economy edict.

When the eyes were touched they reacted, however, showing that the head was not dead. At the end of half an hour all signs of life be- came increasingly clear. “The eyes were opened,” Dr. Brukhanenko recounted, “and had every appearance of being alive. The head responded to the rlightest touch. If you touched the ear, the head shook it in a typical canine movement. When our young assist- ant, Volodia Dregkov, accidentally put the end of a wire into the dog's nostril, the head jerked 8o violently we had to hold it down on the plate.” A light was suddenly flashed on the head and the eyes shut instant- ly. When a plece of cotton soaked in acid was put in its mouth, it was immediately ejected, but when a piece of cheese was put in, the head swallowed it. Every test made in the course of three hours showed the normal responses. The senses were obviously functioning. “Why were we unable to prolong the process?” Dr. Brukhanenko asked, and proceeded to answer: “The cause seemed to be a change in the blood. It became darker and the head seemed to suffer for lack of air. Tow:rds the end of the experiment the mouth would open again and again as though the dog wanted to br:athe or to yawn."
