DE LEY'AL MAY BEACCUSER AT
 HUNS TRIALS

BRUSSELS, July 12 (Correspon- pondence of Associated Press).- If Baron Won Lacken-Walkenitz, civil governor, and regarded by many as the real ruler of Belgium during the German occupation, is brought back to trial at the Old Bailey in London, there will be present an accuser whom Lancken tried to send to the firing squad at the Tir National. That man is Gaston de Leval, Belgian at torney, legal counsellor of the Amer ican legation and special aid to the American ambassador, Brand Whit lock and Hugh Gibson, secretary of the American legation, during those dark days of the German occupation in Belgium.
 There is bitter hatred between Baron Lancken and the Belgium at- torney, who risked his life in his at tempt to save Miss Edith Cavell, the British nurse, from execution. Had it not been for the intervention Of Ambassador Whitlock and MT. Gibson a firing squad might have entertained De Leval on the morning of October 2l, 1915.
 De Leval, accompanied MT. Gibson when, on October II, the American secretary went to protest to Won der Lancken, who refused to intervene, the German caught sight of De Leval and exclaimed: "There is an enemy subject. What is he doing here?" Marquis VillaIobar and Mr. Gibson immediately recognized that Lancken was attempting to create a diversion and requested De LeVaI to withdraw. The latter refused, saying, T shall live to prosecute you at your trial" Lancken asked Gibson to dismiss De Leval from the service of the Ameri- can legation. Gibson refused.
 A few days later Lancken came raging to the American legation, bear ing copy of an English paper with the story of the execution of Miss CaVell, including MT. Whitlock's re- port to the state department, Gib- sons narrative of the events and De LevaPs legal conclusions.
 'This man De Leval will have to be removed from the American Iega- tion," said Lancken. Under military law he should be tried by a court martial I would recommend that the most severe penalty be visited upon him."
 On October 21, 1915, Lancken re- turned to the legation and demanded that De Leval be given up Mr. WhitlOck refused. De Leval went to London where he remained through out the war.
 Lancken's parting sally to De Leval was: we shall meet again." De Leval retorted: 'I am sure the pleasure will all be mine" And now they meet at the Old Bailey.

NATIONAL UNIVERSITY is
AGAIN BEING DISCUSSED
FAVORED BY WASHINGTON

Talk of national university-a
again, largely through the insistence
of United States Senator Sterling of
South Dakota that such an institution
be established in the capital city. The
university would be a postgraduate
school solely, and would bring togeth-
er the heads of the various state uni
versities at specified periods
Few people there are perhaps. who
know there IS a standing committee
of the United states senate called tn
committee on the University of the
United States. That it is compare
lively unimportant one is evidenced
by the fact that the chairman of the
committee is always a member of the
minority party in the senate. w. p.
Dillingha, Republican senator from
Vermont, was the chairman in the
last congress. In the present congress
the chairman will be Democratic
senator.
The idea of a national university
was conceived in the mind of George
Washington, and it may be due more
to this fact that the idea has been pre-
served to the American people
through a senate committee than to
any practical interest in the matter.
But the interest is assuming a new
significance in these times of advance
learning and educaroa1 evolution.
That great national postgraduate
school for the reception of state uni
versity graduates will be established
sooner or later is the prediction OF
such supporters, of the movement as

High School Notes
A Little Drama In Real Life

Floyd Brown played a very sensa-
tional part in a little spur of the mo-
ment" drama which came near result
ing into tragedy recently. For fully
three minutes, Floyd was hailed as
hero by his algebra class.
And all because of this when Floyd
came into the room, he stTolled lei
surely in front of the teachers desk,
glancing c%ausually at the assignment
leaf thereon. He caught a glimpse OF
a word in the assignment for his class
which stirred his blood. He looked
again. To make sure. he moved closer
to the word. No, he was not mis-
taken. There was the a%bbreviation
Rev" Mindful of the half prepared
lesson which the class as a whole had
had the day before, he Immediately
interpreted the "Rev." to mean revolu-
ton.
Kids" he called out in an elevated
style, we're going to have a revolu-
ion in class today Miss Trinkle has.
it marked down here so she wouldn't
forget. Oh! dear! What shall we co."
he said in a limp tone.
Just then the blood came surging
through his veins at an increased
speed. He stamped his foot and eX-
claimed in a very courageous tone,
Fellows, B~olshevisln is among us!
Miss Trinkle has our number, She
is going to lecture us severely Let's
get busy and be studying when she
comes in. And let each one smile a
heavenly smile when she enters the
room. Maybe we can put down this
revolution! Men and women of this
algebra class, it's up to us! Let us
mite against Bolshevism to uproot it.
Fall in! Your algebra books! Let us
study"
And with this last outburst of patri-
otto oratory, Floyd fell into his seat
almost exhausted, yet proud that he
was able to espouse such a worthy
cause.
When Miss Trinkle entered the
room, she was surprised to note the
quiet and studious atmosphere which
held sway.
Before we take I'D today's prob.
lems," she began, Eve will review
those which we had yesterday"
Every one glared at Floyd and Boil

trated study, which vas all uncallet

SENATE LIKELY TO ADJOURN
WITHOUT ACTION ON TREATY

WASHINGTON, Nov. 19-The mega
tive vote on the Lodge ratification re-
solution consisted of ~ democrats, 10
republicans, including irreconcilables.
After defeating the resolution the
senate voted to reconsider and Sc
make possible another vote after COM
promise efforts. 1t then defeated
Hitchcock's motion TO adjourn, and
then overruled the vice-president's
ruling that an amendment to the
Lodge resolution and motion to strike
out the preamble to the reservations
were in order.
Lodge, Hitchcock and other leaders
predict that the ultimate outcome will
be the present refusal of the senate
to ratify the treaty, leaving the ques-
ton in position for further c~onsidera-
ton at the next session of congress.
