dainty article of food which would
allow the stomach to take the ordi-

where are agreed that nine.tenths OF
the stomach trouble in existence: is
caused by rising up in the morning
and trying to eat the pantry shelves

ing pancakes for breakfast ana not

The most popular form Of pancake

than two pounds of raw beef: Some
people object to the buckwheat cakes
on account of their sallow complex

of Pisa. and then disappear with a
terrifying rapidly. 1t is a trying task
to fry whole wheat pancakes TOT

The pancake can be made by any

OKLAHOMA CITY, Sept. al
Stories of joy rides at the University
of oklahoma, which have filtered from
recent executive sessions of the state
board of education, had their culmina-
ton today in the removal OF Prof. NJ.
G.. Nell, head of the university's geo.
logical department. The action OF the
state board was taken behind closed
doors.
President Stratton d. Brooks first
presented the case of Professor Nell
and another professor, who has gone
unnamed, to the state board of edu-
cation a month ago After having
newspapermen and others sent from
the room, President Brooks outlined
a story of alleged misconduct on the
part of two men connected with the
university.
He said they had taken two girl stu
dents on Joy ride. one of the girls
is said to have become alarmed by
the actions of the other parties be-
fore the ride had progressed far
and demanded that she be taken home.
The others demurred. but the girl was
so insistent that finally they turned
the car back toward Norman and left
her at her home.
The girl was so chagrned and up
set by her experience that she re-
ported it to the university authorities.
An investigation was started and IL
ended in President Brooks demanding
that the two professors resign. Both
refused at first and it was then that
Mr.. Brooks reported the affair to the
state board of education.
The state board was notified at its
meeting here this week by President

fessor. Neil had refused to tender II.
