ling as a result of the refusal of Frank
Bour,and OF Ardmore 20 answer ques-
tions regarding the organization to-day
in the trial of eight men charged with
the murder of three men at Wilson
last Thursday night.
Freezing called the hearing to halt
and asked for recess until next Tues
day that he may determine whether
charges may be made against the Klan.
The recess was granted. Freezing an
nounced also that on Tuesday he would
file a charge of murder under the riot
law against each of the defendants.
A witness early in the day said Bour-
land had key to the meeting place
OF the Klan. Asked by Freezing IL he
knew of the Klan's assembly room. he
said: II decline to answer" Freezing

court.
"I don't want to embarrass any or

object a good purpose, but the State is
entitled to all facts in this matter.

Judge Rutherford Brett of the defense
council interjected: THE State has no
right to pry into the secrets of this or
any other secret order. / don't know the
purpose of the Attorney General but 1
recall that Congress attempted an in
vestigation OF the Klan and dropped
the subject like a hot brick"
These are the questions that Bour-
land declined to answer: Are you a
member of the Ku Klux Klan? Do you
hold any Office in the Ku Klux Klan?
Do you know any of the members of
the Klan? Have you ever met with the
Klan in the Odd Fellows Hall? Is there
box containing Klan paraphernalia in
that hay? Have you seen any masks
that were property of the Klan. Do
you know whether J. A. Gillian is
member Of the klan? Do Klansmen
take an oath to protect and defend each
other under penalty of death? What
are the duties of the king kleagle, the
grand goblin, the Cyclops? Do you
know what is in that box at the Klan's
meeting place?
The witness answered in the negative
the question: did you hear anything

she was brought TO Broad Street Hos

All that time she has been lowering

lay in deathlike stupor.
Art first the youthful patient, who
was placed in a plaster cast at the sug-
gestion OF DR.. Adolf Lorenz. could only
articulate yes and no" But the
fact that she could speak at all thrilled
her and gave the nurses and physicians
an extra cause TO believe this particu-
larly joyful holiday time.
After Miss Moore had tried speaking
words of one syllable she advanced 20
complete. though short. sentences
Later in the day. when she missed one
of the physicians regular calls. she
took pen and pencil and wrote him a
note reminding him that he mustn't for

the bone structure of the skull and

FRESHMAN CLASS TO
Be RECORD BREAKER
Credentials Submitted Indicate En-.
roilment Two Hundred Greater
Than Last IeaI~--Housing
Situation Acute

Nearly 200 more credentials, sub
mitted by high school graduates de-
sirous of entering the freshman class
OF the State College, are in the hands
OF the registration committee this
week than at the same time last year
Announcement to this effect was
made this week by Professor c. A.
Isaacs, general college secretary, who
stated that credentials have al
ready been submitted by 369 high
school graduates, as against ia at
the same time last year. Last years
freshman class was the largest in the
history of the college and every in
dication points to a first-year class
this year that will exceed that OF
192021 by at least 200.
Indications are that a vast major
ity of the old students will return to
carry on their collegiate work and
the enrolment this year is expected
to break all records Inquiries from
plOoPCNilNC Sihuthio luhlbdIC a piNL-
erence for agriculture and its allied
courses, engineering and home eco
Monies, with other subjects in un-
precedented demand.
The housing situation is acute, but
every effort is being eXerted to To-
cate all the students in comfortable
quarters and it is believed that ALI
will be accommodated. All of the
rooms at Ferry hall, the dormitory
for men, have been assigned, with
70 names on the waiting last, to be
given the preference in order of pri-
ority. Many rooms are still avail
able in the residence districts, how
ever.
The most acute shortage appears
to be in houses for parents who de-
sire to come to Pullman to educate
their children and a movement was
launched Tuesday to construct a
number of small houses for tenn
porary use, with a view to charging
them later if necessary.
