The legend of the flying
Dutchman is the most picture
Sque and romantic of the many
tales current among sailors
half a century ago. The tale is
told with variations in nearly
every Maritime country. AS
the hero is a Rutchman.
we shorN, properly refer to
Holland for the true version of
the tale. Several thorities
give tins as Follows: "Falkcn-
berg was u nobleman, who
murdered his brother and his
bride in fit of passion, and
was condemned therefore for
ever TO wander toward the
North. On arriving at the sea-
shore, he found awaiting him
boat. He entered the boat,
attended by his good and his
evil spirit, and went on board
spectral bark in the harbor.
There he still fingers, while
these spirits play dice for his
soul. For six hundred yeadS the
ship mas wandered the seas,
and Mariners still see her in
the ocean, sailing Northward,
without helm or heimSman.
She is painted gray, has color
ed sails. a pale flag, and no
crew. Flames issue from the
masthead at night"
The spectre ship is often at
tended by a fog. Many unusu-
al occurrences are attended by
a fog or mist, and are often
easily accounted for by the I'M
usual resonance given to
sounds in fog, and to the
strange feelings often expert
enccd when locked in from the
outside world by a fog-bank.
A particularly apt illustra-
ton of the effects of natural
causes given is in a modern
book on travels. One evening
travellers in ship approaching
close to port danger, on the
South African Coast, beheld a
Vcll-known English man-of
war, a short distance away.
The travellers set faces OF.

and manned from the English
ship, in sight of everybody. All
recognized the "Barracouta." ~
and they expected to find her
at anchor when they arrived.
short time later. II was a
week, however, before she ar
rived, and then it was learned
that she was at least 300 miles
form Port Danger at the time
referred to. The image seen
was doubtless due to reflection
or rcfraction in some cloud or
fog-bank. Artic Voyagcrs often
speak OF the very remarkable
effects of rcfraction, and many
OF the nautical tales of phan-
townships are beyond adoubt.

DIR. Anderson's switch was ex-

mentioned above.
Says Facts Learned Later
At the time he defended Mr.
Fuchs. the president had not
been told and did not then know
the extent and character Of his
activities as a Communist the
letter stated, adding that DR.
Anderson was unaware that Mr.
Fuchs had been a cell leader
and had lied under oath in a 10y
atty hearing.
"As a result of this additional
information the president be-
llieved, and SO informed Prof
Fuchs, that the question now was

AndersOn's Praise Quoted
DR.. Anderson was the target
of another criticism by the COM
mittee, which quoted his state
ment of July 10, 1855, praising
Mr.. Fuchs. The statement was
issued after The Star published
an account of the professors
|closed-door testimony on Capt.
tol Hill. 1t said in part:
HE is known in our Wash
ington College Of Law as an in
telligent. loyal and devoted
teacher. He made a serious mis-
take in the past, which he has
recognized and declared. The
American University therefore
would support his right as a
citizen to pursue his chosen pro-
fessional activities. To take any
other position at this time would
be beneath the dignity of the
institution with a Christian re-
lationship and commitments"
Less than a week later, Mr.
Fuchs was summonded to DR.

stated it would not consider Mr.

sharply criticized the university
