Declaring that the moral and estnetlo
tone of the university needs upiifuns'
Professor Noyes OF the English de-
partment to-day began the work by
advising the members of his classes
that hereafter any student who comes
attired in a sweater will be denied ad-
mission.
Sweaters, said the professor. ARE
vulgar and unseemly, and no gen
tleman should be found with one on
in the presence of ladies, and parttcu-
larly while in attendance upon univers-
ity classes. / wish 1T distinctly under
stood that hereafter 1 shall be obliged
to refuse entrance to any pupil VINO
comes to class wearing one OF the oD-
noxious garments.
i regard a sweater, when worn un-
der these circumstances, as an Insult
to the women students present, and
believe the women feel very much the
same way about the matter"
Several years ago the practice or
wearing sweaters became so alarm
ingly prevalent at the university that
an order was issued forbidding II, but
there have been lapses from the rule.
and the habit has threatened to again
become general.
Other professors have during the last
few days lectured their classes In
vigorous fashion. regarding their NOR
ais and student habits in general.
Professor Christy of the engineering
department, prominent member OF
the faculty, to-day lamented the fate
of the proposed honor system fea-
ture, which the student body voted
down at an election last week. He said
the students by that action publicly
announced that they preferred dis
honesty to honesty.
Professor Lewis of the chemistry
department gave Editor Joseph P.
Loeb a verbal castigation to-day,
when he said that the editors remarks
in the Daily Californian, regarding the
big &C. matter, were distinctly 1ip-
pant and calculated to provoke irrev-
erence and cast ridicule upon the fac
ulty members who have opposed the
big CO. project. Loeb had editorially
referred to the storm of protests
against the big &C" as Much ado
about nothing"

quantities of suffocating smoke that en-
veloped the building. The fire was a
blind affair. and before it could be
subdued the roof was chopped open in
a dozen places and through these holes
water was poured until the building
was declared to be out of danger. Fire
man Louis Wescott of the North Berke-
ley company was overcome by the
smoke while in the building and was
carried out unconscious.
