farreaching that there is every indi-
cation that others at the university
are involved in transactions of an ex-
tremely unsavory nature.
The announcement followed the
notification by Public Examiner F. n.
Stacy that s4,950 had been found in
the university vault used by Bren,
subsequent to an examination at which
the examiner declares that amount
had not been located i'm the vault.
The cash was found in the vault in
the accountants office at the unver-
sity
Mr. Bren visited the university in
company with his attorney, y. W.
Cross, to assist the examiners in their
investigation of his accounts. His at
torney demanded of Deputy Examiner
Stacy that he tell what had become Of
certain sum Bren had declared had
been left in the vault. Mr.. Stacy re-
fused to make any statement
The examiners declared that there
had been no money in the vault when
they searched it carefully previous 70

been placed in the vault since they
searched it, according to their knowl
edge.

several things which they say have

Finally they discovered a CHECK
which had been sent to a professor In
the law school by a book concern. This
check, they say they have been told
by a credible witness, was in payment
for influence used by this professor In
