BY THE WAY
Students of the University of
Pennsylvania have organized a
"Hardship Club" whose member
ship must shin up 20 foot ropes
hand over hand, swim 100 yards,
walk a mile in less than seven
minutes and dip under the parallel
bars ten times. They must sleep
on the gynasium floor, take a swim
in the Schuykill when the
water is near the freezing point, get
up at 3 a. m. for a ten-mile walk
and in every way show contempt
for fatigue, pain, sleep, cold, heat
and everything else anybody
doesn't like.
A tight between a member of the
third class and one of the fourth
class at the Annapolis Naval Acad
emy is the subject of an inves
tigation started last week.
It is said that Midshipman
Lawrence, a fourthclass man, was
compelled to do severe physical
exercise known as "the 166" by a
third class man. His performance
did not please the upper classman,
who, it is said, laid hands on the
young fellow to make the command
plainer. This was resented with a
blow that led to a fight.
Should the upper classman be
found guilty of the offence, his in
fraction would be plainly within
the definition of "brutal hazing",
which calls for dismissal from the
service.
A Massachusetts Institute of
Technology senior named Burdick
had for his thesis the problem of
making sodium sulphide by a
process different from the one
usually employed. In the presence
of Professor Hayward and several
students he made the experiment
last week.
The mixture, inclosed in a half
inch castiron tube a foot long, ex
ploded and nearly ' wrecked the
basement of the Rogers Building!

The explosion blew out a
large plate glass window, wrecked
the laboratory sinks, and burst a
two-inch water pipe, which com
plicated matters by flowing for fif
teen minutes before the shut-off
could be found.
More of the students were in
jured, but the flash of brilliant red
fire illuminated the whole section,
and policemen came from all direc
tions, expecting a heavy loss of life.
Professor Hayward told the stud
ent that he considered the experi
ment a failure.
Dr. Wyckoff, who recently
moved to State College, brought
with him two fine specimens of
Moose or Mountain Maple which he
presented to the Department of
Forestry.
