COED is ADVISED TO LEAVE.
Girls Smoking Parties Are Not Per-
mitted at SaIina school.

Salina, Kan, Dec. 15.-As a result
of what the university authorities say
has been continuous infraction of the
school rules since a Thanksgiving day
escapade, three young ladies attend
ing the Wesleyan university, have
been placed under special supervision
by the faculty, and one was advised
to leave" the school, returning to her
home, in Montana.
According to her friends, one of the
girls is being kept under close watch
at Schuyler hall, the girls dormitory,
and it is said that certain visitors have
not been permitted to see her. The
girl said to be confined in Schuyler
hall recently it was said, her hip was
broken. However, no doctors have
been called to see her, and it is said
her confinement is merely to prevent
her from communicating with the 9TH
er three girls.
A man closely connected with the
university authorities stated today that
most of the girls troubles dates from
Thanksgivine, on which day the four
escaped from the school against the
express commands of DR.. R. P. Smith,
president of the university, and spent
the day at a skating rink in Abilene.
The girls, it is said, have been in the
habit of leaving their rooms by way
of the fire escapes and joining young
friends in the city, and one evening
recently were surprised in the midst
of a smoking party which was being
held in one of the vacant rooms at
the dormitory.
Two of the girls came from Mon
tana, and are the daughters of per-
sons who knew DIR. R. p. Smith of the
university, when he was president of
the Montana Wesleyan university.
