Girl Freshman Held Captiue
Many Hours BY Sophon,ores
Elsie Kanowitz, Pretty and Popular, ''Disciplined
for Violating Rule Against Flirting; Mothe,

Taking leaf out Of tho stories they
had read of college mems doings, girl
sophomores in the Washington Square
College Of New York University late
Thursday afternoon. gagged and blind
folded Elsie Kanowitz a freshman
charged with violating rules Of conduct
laid down for such, bundled her into
waiting taxicab, drove her to board
ing house and kept her there in bath
robe prisoner for eighteen hours.
She was released yesterday morning,
after her mother, Mrs. /. Kanowitz, Of
754 West 1Soth Street, had appealed in
vain to the university authorities to
rescue her daughter from her unusual
plight.
The rule of freshman "co-ed." con-
duct which Miss Kanowitz is charged
with having violated is the fourth of a
series entitled "Girls' Freshman Rules"
University at the beginning Of the
semester. 1t reads as follows:
"Thou shalt not converse with mem
bers of the male sex in the corridors,
halls or classrooms."
Pretty and Popular
Although the names Of the \girl
sophomores partakjng in the kidnap-
ing remained a secvet, the story Of
what occurred, as divulged by their
classmates, is something to this ef
feet:
Miss Kanowitz, who is undeniably
pretty, has for some time aroused the
ire of the sophomores by her fla
grant refusal to abide by the rule
quoted above. She was popular, and
coming into and going out of classes
she was generally to be seen in the
company of masculine escort, with
whom she chatted gayly and apparent
ly quite oblivious to the rule she
thereby violated.
Finally the sophomores decided on
action. They sent a messenger to the

classroom in which Professor Whipple
was conducting q course in essay
writing on the ninth floor of the
N. Y. u. building at Washington
Square, with the announcement that
Miss Kanowitz was varied by the
dean In the Office, situated on the
eighth floor.
The victim went, unsuspecting. As
she opened the door into the eighth
floor corridor seven husky pairs of
feminine arms seized her, stuffed hand
kerchiefs into her mouth and wound
bandages around her eyes. Then she
was transferred in a jffy into wait
ing taxicab. The blinds of the cab
were drawn
Mother Starts Search
After a lengthy journey she found
herself in small hall bedroom amid
strange surroundings. Her captors,
who wore masks at this stage of the
proceeding, took the bandages off her
eyes and the gag out of her mouth,
and then roughly addressed her and
substituted bathrobe for her clothes.
which they concealed. Then her hair
was loosened and put up in long braids.
The numerals of the sophomore class
were painted in iodine on her forehead.
When evening approached the sopho-
mores began to get conscience stricken
and finally decided to telephone their
prisoners mother. When they asked
Miss Kanowitz whether she had any
message for her parent, she told them:
Say to my mother that I'm happy
and having fine time"
When Mrs. Kanowitz was apprised
of her daughters situation, she hurried
to the university, but the authorities,
after investigation, told her they were
helpless in the circumstances. the
sophomores whom they called before
them all pleading ignorance of the af-
fair. Yesterday about noon Miss Kano-
witz was released, with the admontion
that she heed the Freshman rules"

classmates the necessity Of strict con-
formance with their mandates.

Three westbound transatlantic liners
were held off Sandy Hook yesterday by
a tenacious fog that settled on the

arder Royal George, from Liverpool,
was held off the Hook, and will not

! On the Touraine came Raphael Peyre,
a French sculptor, who made statue
which is called "Crusading for Right"
and represents United States marine
in action. The statue, which was pur-
chased for 900 by the marines who
| fought in France, is still abroad, and
may be erected in Belleau Wood, where
the marines made their great fight
against the Germans.

sculptor of the French Line pier and
escorted him and his family to the
Hotel Lafayette.

teen small bronze figures which he
will exhibit in this city.
Another traveller on the Tourane
was Milton l.. Schmitt, of San Fran
cisco, who has been abroad two wears
and is interested in the erection in
Paris of a large building to be known
as the "World Market" The structure
which is to cover twelve acres on a
bank of the Seine will cost 100, 900 900

to be the ideal center for world

Also on the Touraine was Professor
Jacques Hadamard, who holds the chair
of analytical mechanics at the Ecole
Polytechnique, who is on his way to
Central America. On his return he will
lecture at Yale University.
