GIRL BRANDED FOR LIFE.
FrOlic of Initiation Takes Serious Turn
Victim, Suffering and Under
Physician's Care, Is Pronounced
Permanently Scared.

indianapolis, Ind, Feb. 4.-'Let the
victim now prepare to be branded
with the insignia of our noble order"
The voice was girlish, the scene
ghostly. Slender, masked and shroud-
ed figures stalked about the dimly
lighted room. In the center sat a fig
ure sedate and dignifed. From be-
hind this mask came the solemn, girl
ish voice. AT one side was another,
blindfolded and trembling form An
"awesome" silence was over all
The victim who aspired to the honor
of membership in the Alpha Gramma
Tau Sorority of Shortridge high school
was thrust forward. Slowly with even
strokes the branding brush was ap-
piled. In concentrated nitric acid on
the back of each school girls hands
was traced the mystic Greek insignia
"A. G. T."
That was three weeks ago. Last
evening DR.. E. Z. Hodgen, who has
been attending the burnedhands of Miss
Hazel Reisner, 2421 College avenue,
stated that the scars of the burns re-
ceived during the branding will re-
main with the young woman through
life. After three weeks of suffering
her hands are healing, but the brand
ing" has created a sensation which
will not Immediately die out in sorority
circles of Shortridge
The initiation at which the new
branding stunt was tried on Miss Reis-
ner for the first time was held at the
home of Miss Mary Anthony in Col
lege avenue. DR.. Hodgen states that
the solution used must have been a
very strong one of concentrated nitric
acid. and his opinion is verified by the
statements of the Alpha Gramma Tau
members themselves, whose tears have
been unable as yet to efface the scars
from the hands Of the victim.
There has not been an official in
vestigation of the affair by the fac
ulty. it is understood, as Miss Reisner
has been unable to attend school be-
cause of her burns.
The scars mark both hands on the
back in livid lettering and about each
wrist a bracelet was burned.
