Copenhagen. Dec 1s-The Assoei-
ated Press is informed by d high
authority that the committee OF the
eonsistory of the University of capen-
hagen In its preliminary examination
~ his records failed to discover proof
that Dr. Frederick A. Cook reached the

me consistory at secret session
today received a preliminary report
covering the first stage of the work
OF the committee which II examining
the polar records, An excited discuss
sion followed. The committee has NOT
completed Its investigation
The report was presented BY Rector
Tarp. but its nature was carefully
guarded from others than members Of
the consistory. The latter are pledged
10 secrecy. II was admitted, how.
ever. that the work thus far accom-
plished provoked an animated debate
among the university Officials. To the
newspaper men Rector Torp said:
The committees work is not vet
finished l cannot tell how long it
viii continue. but | hope that the re-
suit can be made public before New
Years. Both the members Of the con-
sistory and the examining committee
have been forbidden strictly to make
public anything regarding what has
been accomplished this far by the in
sestiSators''
The result of tnday's discussion was
request on the part Of the consIstory
that the committee continue It's work.
The university body will leave to the
investigators proper the matter OF
making public later the results OF their
inquiries.
In the meantime. II is announced by
an official of the university that the
consistory will not make public any
communication based on information
received orally from the committee at
today's meeting
Popular opinion here appears to have
undergone gradual change. From the
beginning of the controversy the popu-
lace of Copenhagen has been decidedly
pro-cook. Recent developments. how
ever have been disappointing, and to-
day the general impression prevails that
DIR. Cooks papers as submitted do not
constitute proof that he discovered the
north pole.
IL Is learned that several members
Of the university consisters are exceed
ingis angry over the rectar.s pr.timf-
nary report, one of them expressing
regret that the university had not
waited until DIR. Cooks claim that he
reached the pole had been proved
before hanoring him.
