and had earned over 3—oo tills year.
He earned $75 from chickens in Birds*
boro, the Burgess said. Myers had
originally stated that lie stole because
he was poor, undernourished, und
starving to death, and becuuse he did
not get along with his father. Burgess
Leitzell said that Myers changed his
story, saying. that lie had had a mack*
inaw ami $3O stolen as a freshman
and that he decided lie might us well
steal.
Myers admitted stealing 342 from
the Alpha Gumma Rho house, Leit*
zell claimed. Other admissions of
stealing money were $4.35 from lock*
ers at the dairy barns, $2 more from
the Alpha Gamma Rho house, and $1
from the Fletcher dormitory for wom
en where he also stole a shot-gun,
Leitzell said. He admitted stealing $lO
his freshman year and $lO us a soph*
omore. the Burgess added.
Police identified an auto repair'kit
found in Myers’ possession us the one
missing from a car parked in back of
the Acacia house alumni weekend.
That weekend the Acacia house lost
several hundred dollars. The car that
held the kit was stolen and luter re
covered in Logantou. Myers denied
stealing the car or any money from
the Acacia house, Leitzell said.
The Burgess expressed the belief
that police had solved the recent rob-:
bery epidemic. He said that Myers
would be questioned further. He add
ed that much of the stolen goods had
been identified, and that he would
seek a court order to return them to
their owners as soon as they could
be established.
Fresco Base For Proposed
Murals Advocated By Helme
“In the light of the current cam
pus discussion on murals l.n Old
Main, I was impressed by the much
more satisfactory results of fresco as
opposed to canvas wall puintings,
and by the work of Robinson, Biddle,
and Poor,” said Prof. J. Burn Helme
yesterday upon his return from
Washington.
Professors Helme, Dickson, and
Hyslop of the division of fine arts,

roni has decided to remain in the pol
itical picture.
Witlh the return of Francis Szym
izak, high muekety-muck of the four
class Independent setup,- from prac
tice teaching, things are beginning
to move along that front. He has
called for a reorganization meeting
of the badly-beaten Independent
freshmen, and it will be interesting
to watch developments in the fresh
man class.
Campus lost two very able clique
leaders during the past week. Frank
Bynford, sophomore, and A 1 Clingan,
freshman, chairmen of their respec
tive cliques, have dropped out of
school. Irv Supow has been named
temporary chairman of the sophs, and
the freshmen haven’t as yet decided
oh a successor, temporary or other
wise, for Clingan.
With these, this column's first few
shots, now “on the'reeord,” I’d like to
hear your reactions to this .endeavor,
and upon your cooperation and inter
est depends the worth of these rum
blings.

tion in the Department of Justice
and Post Office buildings. Such noted
American artists as Reginald Marsh,
Rockwell Kent, Leon Kroll, Boardman
Robinson, Henry Vavnuni Poor, and
George Biddle have been contracted
by the government to paint murals in
the new federal buildings.
“The favorable reaction of light to
1 the. fresco work of Biddle in contrast
to tthe very..unfavorable light reaction
to the oil on canvas work of Kent,
I Mechcu, and Curry,” Helme explain
ed, “showed clearly the value of true
fresco... The oil paintings done on
canvas in the studio and later fixed to
the wall were very difficult to see be
cause of the poor reflection of light.
“Robinson’s tempora on. canvas
was-more .satisfactory than the oil
compositions, but. has already -begun
to flake in parts, displaying a lack of
permanency;” he continued. “Bid
dle’s technique of execution on plaster
was most"satisfactory.” "
In response to a question regard
ing - likely -candidates for painting
murals in Old Main, Helme said, “I
went - down to Washington favoring
Biddle,' but was -very much impressed
with the- work, of Henry Varnum
Poor. l He hasn’t. Biddle’s technique
for .fresco, but his attention to de
tails and adaptability to the subject
matter make him worthy of consid
eration.” >
