Com- plaint has been made to the faculty : committee on students’ affairs by O. S. Adams and D. 8. Adams, seniors, who are brothers, that the book contains an indecent cartoon and matter accom- panying it, reflecting seriously upon the brothers Adams, and constituting an offense against good taste and the rights of the men who are offended. The faculty committee has issued a peremptory summons to Gregory, w. has been out of town since Monday, return at once and show cause why the Blue and Gold should not be suppressed in accordance with the petition of the Adams brothers. The message from the faculty to Gregory was sent by wire, and Gregory is due to get into town late this evening, when he will appear before the faculty men unless he can procure a stay of proceedings[ in _some manner. The Adams brothers are jocularly called the “butt-ins” of the senior class, having been elected to that honorary place by the class at its last electlon. The affair is made the subject of a car- toon in the Blue and Gold, which de- picts the brothers looking into a build- g and then looking out, with lines be- neath that are considered by the Adamses to be decidedly offensive. Throughout the day there has been talk of injunction proceedings by the Adams brothers to restrain the Blue and Gold men from putting out their book to-morrow. Ezra Decoto, gradu- ate manager of student affairs, who is also an attorney, has assured the man- agers of the annual that no injunction can be procured, though they may be subject to a suit for libel. The junior class held a meeting this afternoon and considered the proposal to make each junior stand an extra as- sessment of $2 aplece for the Blue and Gold. The original assessment was $5, for which each junior receives a Blue and Gold. Gray's proposal to add $2 to this assessment was rejected. The mat- ter of the Adams brothers’ complaint was not considered by the meeting of the juniors. ‘The forthcoming Blue and Gold is re- puted to be full of sensational matter, ! dealing with student life and facuilty affairs, and its appearance on the cam- pus to-morrow is awaited with ln!ere!t unusually keen.

Danger of a serious fire is not remote and the citizens realize that the expenditure of a compara- tively small sum of money to purchase hydrants and to equip the fire com- pany properly is money better 'spent than in replacing burned structures. The public meeting called to dis- cuss ways and means to improve the fire fighting service was well attended by men whose presence means co- operation in the campaign. Chief Simmons of the fire department pre- sided and A. F. Joseph acted as sec- retary. The immediate need of pro- viding more hydrants and of repairing those now in service was pointed out and recognized. William Nelson, Charles Barden and W. H. Griffith were appointed fo so- licit funds to buy the necessary hy- drants, which will be put in place by the firemen when they arrive. This done, other measures will be taken to improve the service.
