U.OFN. D. DISMISSED STEFANSSON
WHO LATER BECAME ITS HERO

the two-milc hike he was forced to
make. Stefansson very nearly re-
ceived his dismissal.
Constantly in trouble, the young
trickster finally was told to seek
learning elsewhere, and this he did
when he enrolled at Iowa State COL
lege. There he made brilliant rec
ord and was graduated with honorS.
Calculus Yarn Best One
But probably the best story, and
the one which has grown up about
Stefansson in the past few years is
the calculus yarn. It illustrates why
Stefansson was urged to get out of
the university. and also reveals the
dashing wit and piercing brilliancy
of the man.
The tale goes like this. Young
Stefansson went to his calcucus class
the first day Of school, He failed to
return to the sessions until the day
set for the final examination. At
tendance rules being rather lax, the
young fellow was allowed to write the
quiz. This he did. and so excellent
was his work that the professor gave
him 98 grade.
The faculty man was much i'm
pressed. and is popularity supposed to
have remarked. We'll. Mr.. Stefan
sson. you did remarkably we'll consid-
ering that you attended only one
class"
Stefan5son's anwcr. which has
made tradition, was, "Yeh, if I hadn't
come the first day I'd have gotten a

Noted Arctic Explorer Was
Brilliant Student But His
Tricks Classics

Grand Forks, N. D.. Dec l8.-Of
all the campus heroes at the Univer-
sity of North Dakota in the past
present, and the future to come. one
man stands above all. That man is
Vilhjalmur. Stefansson, famed arctic
explorer. who - once expelled from
the school for conduct-was selected
in 1924 as one of ten most famous
former students or alumni of the in
stitution. His exploits, CARRIED in re-
telling by countless students and fac
ulty members over quarter century,
are explained annually to every
freshman enrolling at the school.
StefanSSOn, SO stories run, enrolled
at North Dakota in the earlier years
OF this century. Remarkably bril-
liant in his work. his active mind
found an outlet In mischief which
finally resulted in his dismissal from
the university. He could not accept
the routine type of life, and his ac-
tivitieS were such that the authori-
ties finally had to recommend his
leaving school.
Liked to Trundle Kegs
His favorite stunt, so tradition
says, was the trundling of keg of
beer across the campus. The campus
was dry, history says. and the horror
OF the school authorities was sur
passed only by the glee which the
young explorer took in completing
the deed. He very nearly was re-
moved from school.
Then there was the cab incident.
The president of the university had
carriage which In he used to trans
port himself and his family from the
school to Grand Forks, which is sit
uated some two miles away. No
street car line was in operation and
the carriage was virtually the only
means of travel.
One on PreXy
One day Stefansson observed the
cab standing in front of a store,
awaiting its owner. The driver was
sleepily waiting as we'll. Stefansson
had an idea. He quietly slipped into
the cab and ordered in a very fair
imitation of the presidents tone,
Home, Petcr!"
The trick worked, and the prcsi-
dents temper was not improved by
