SYRACUSE STUDENT WHIPS

 Unnecessarily Delayed.

Syracuse, Aug. 5.-Herbert w. Faus of Elysburg, Pa, student at Syra- cuse university, went on a wild ram page this afternoon and attempted tc C. Nugent both of the university fac ulty, because he thought they delaye6 unnecessarily tlfe issuing of his diplO- ma. Two rough and tumble fights re suited in which the three participants were badly battered.
 Young Faus was a student in the Lyman c. Smith college of applied sci ence- Because of his activities in so- sity crew he had to make up work al the end of the session. Not until to- day did his diploma reach him.
 Immediately upon receiving it, Faus went to the office of Dean Sheppard and loudly announced:
 If you wish to know what think of your institution and this diploma, will show you.'' Touching a match to it. he lighted a cigar with the flaming parchment.
 Don't try that, young man, or there will be trouble" cautioned Dean Shep- pard, to which Faus answered:
 If this is what you mean, just take off your glasses
 Faus received blow on the nose be- fore he had finished his challenge. That started a rough and tumble fight in which Dean Sheppard got by far the worst of the encounter, though Faus was well battered.
 From the deans office Faus went to the residence of Prof. Paul C. Nugent and had another light, in which he was also victorious He blamed Professor Nugent for not authorizing the regis trar to issue the diploma.
 Faus is a member of Phi Delta Theta and of Phi Kappa Alpha, the two lead ing societies of the university, and is prominent socially.
 Two young men in Dean Sheppard's office declined to help the dean when he called on them for help and asked them to summon police protection, but he did not insist on seeking police help when told he would be given another beating up if he tried it.
