YEARS PROBATION FOR HAzERs.
Eighteen of the Cadets in Trouble at
Northfield Have Chance to Finish
Their Course.

President Ira l.. Reeves of Norwich
university, in statement relative to
the recent hazing episode al the uni
versity which resulted i'll the dismissal
of three cadets and the summary sus-
pension of the remaining 81 members
of the sophomore class, says that "a of
the suspended men have asked for re-
instatement.
President Reeves says that IS of tie
applications have been acted upon and
that the men have been placed on pro,
baton until July |, 1917. The remain
ing applications have been tabled and
the president says that it is not likely
they will receive further consideration
until sometime the next college year.
President Reeves gives out a state
mcnt made by r. w. Cotton, j. F.
Loughlin, II. Herbert Cameron and W.
D. Hedges of the sophomore class, the
latter president, in which the action of
the class in refusing to disclose any in
formation is given. President Reeves
statement saws that the faculty could
not interpret the position of the sopho.
mores in any other way ethan that of
defiance" and accordingly took drastic
action. Every cadet reinstated on
probation has been required to sign a
pledge not to engage in hazing and to
use his influence to prevent others
from so doing.
The scene of the hazing was not on
the "Terracc. but in the village. The
freshmen were aroused from their beds
and given time to partially dress be-
fore being taken to the place where
they were compelled to run a gaunt-
let formed by two lines of sophomores
and receive chastisement in the shape
of "strapping" with heavy military
belts and "spanking' with barrel
slaves.
The affair became known through
residents of the village, who were dis
turbed by the noise, and President
Reeves was notified. An investigation
was ordered and when three probation
ers, Jacobs, Mason and Ogseon, de-
clined to tell what they knew about
the hazing the trouble for the sopho
more class as a whole began.
There was no leniency shown and
orders were issued by the president
that every member of the sophomore
class be suspended.

rooms and club rooms and to build i'll
the rear an addition for an assembly
hall, pool and billiard room and bowl
ing alleys. The present building con-
tans If large rooms and is well adapt

of the best in town. The organization

tune and its bright prospects.

council in the state and is one of the
first to own a home. 1t was instituted

bers. There are now about 100 MEM
bers, and while the membership is not
as large as that of some of the coun-
ellis in the state it has a larger per-
ccntage of insurance members, which
is decidedly to its advantage.
The first meeting of the council was
held in Red Men S hall, where the of
fcers were installed. Regular meetings
were held in Grand Army hail until
Feb. 5, 1905. and thereafter meetings
were held in Red Men S hall. On March
