However, the 50 fine must be paid be-
fore the students will be permitted to

melee, and the money collected in fines
will be used to replace them. Double
cuts were given all students absent
from their studies Monday. The uni

are conducting an investigation of the
whole affair.

stration on the college campus Mon
day was inconsequential, and that at
no time we're moro than 200 students
concerned. There were no fights be-
tween students and professors. he says,
and the disturbance was quickly
quelled.
