FRAT COMPROMISE
PLAN IS DISCUSSED
BalIou Confers With Alumni
Representative of Lamb
da Sigma.

The compromise plan proposed by
lambda Sigma Fraternity for settle
ment Of the high school fraternity
controversy was discussed today by
superintendent of Schools Frank w.
Ballou and Sidney Z. Kent, alumni
representative of the organization. 1t
was the first of a series of confer
ences which the Board of Education
authorized the superintendent to hold
with representatives of Lambda Sigma
looking to an amicable disposition Of
the dispute.
Lambda Sigma did not join with
Sigma Delta and several other fra
ternities in instituting legal proceed
ings against the school board, and is
making an effort to become a recog-
niZed school organization through con-
ferences with school authorities. An
other conference will be held next
week between DR.. Ballou and repre-
sentatives of the fraternity, after
which the superintendent is expected
to report the results to the board.
Faculty Control Sought.
Faculty control and supervision over
the high school fraternities is pro-
posed by Lambda Sigma as a means of
receiving the approval of school au-
thorities. AS school officials now have
such authority over school organiZa-
tions on the approved list, 1t is con-
sidered likely that Lambda Sigma may
become a recognized fraternity.
A postponement of the hearing on
the suit brought against the board by
three high school boys, originally set
for Friday, has been agreed to as a
result of a conference between John
e. Laskey, former United States dis
trict attorney and counsel for the stu
dents, and Corporation Counsel Fran
els II. Stephens, who has been desig-
mated by the Commissioners to defend
the board. The case was set today on
the court calendar for May 20.

Though Peter Rabbit teased and teased he could get no more inior- nation from or Mistah Buzzsrd. He had to be satisfied with the knoWl- edge that or Mrs. Buzzard didn't have a nest over on the Big Noun tain. So once more Peter devoted his time to looking up in the trees of the Green Forest. An idea had come to him, so now instead of looking for new nest. he went about look ing for old nests. You see, he remem- bered that Hooty the Owl and Mrs. Hooty didn't take the trouble to build a nest for themselves, but simply fixed up an old nest-one built by Redtail the Hawk or by Blacky the Crow. It might be that or Mrs Buzzard had done the same thing. So now Peter spent his time looking for old nests.
 He found 8 number of them The trouble was that when he found one he couldn't tell whether or not it was occupied. How he did wish he 1 could climb like Happy Jack squir- 1 rel or Chatterer the Red Squirrel, But he couldn't. He would go all around the tree in which that old nest was and look up at it until his neck ached. He hoped he might see the end Of or Mrs. Buzzard,s tail over the edge of the nest. But Inc l la. around in the hope that somebody 1 would come of whom he could ask questions. Usually if he waited long enough some one Of the feathered folk would happen along and Peter would be able to find out that that old nest was not being used.
 It was surprising how many old nests there were. Peter wasted lo
 of time, and in the end he was nc wiser than before as to where Ol Mrs. Buzzard and her two eggs reall, were, At first Peter hadn't wanted others 10 know what he was looking for but at last he didn't care wh' knew 1t. So he began 10 ask every
 one he met If they had seen the mes of or Mrs. Buzzard. or course thi
