Other cadets inside the gates surmised

Id went 10 their aid. At least dozen
-ldets gathered around the eateman and
-rgued with him. The one cadet remained
on the outside. As the gateman would not
listen TO argument. there was nothing for
the cadets to do but use force-and they
did When the gateman wasn't looking
they pulled their unfortunate colleague
over the turnstile and ran for dear life TO
the barracks.
1t was this incident that caused the
cadets to hesitate N leaving the ExpoSi-
tion grounds without proper credentials
for their safe return. They waited upon
Captain Haight. who is in charge OF
Worlds Fair ceremonies. and asked him
to secure passes Captain Haight was not
invested with authority to issue passes
and at first he gave the boys no en-
couragement.
4 score of the cadets gathered on the
outside OF Captain HaiEht's Office and be-
gan to formulate a plan Of action.
They accosted an Exposition enploye.

was decided upon and Captain HaiCht was
notified.
Captain Haight got in communication
With some of the Exposition officials with
the result that Catenen were instructed
TO admit the cadets without passes upon
their return from the city.
The heroic plea Of scaling tho fence
was abandoned, OF course. after Captain
Eaisht had announced th1t everything
had been made right. but the cadets de-
