CHICAGO. Feb. 29. (AP) At
11:S9 o'clock today George W.
Rodent of Portland. Ore., walked
up the steps of the art institute.
stopped between the two British
lions on guard there and looked
around.
Half a minute later George E.
r-ichty of Hinsdale, 111., came
bounding up the steps to be whack
ed on the back by Mr. Rod en 1 and
to be whacked back in return. Next
came Clifford Olaf Johnson, of
Mankato, Minn., across Michigan
avenue to join Mr. Rodeni and Mr.
Ruchty and in another minute A.
Swanson, of Waco, Texas, Join
ed the crowd. .
After many manifestations of
joy, one of them pulled a telegram
out of his pocket. It was from G.
Frost of Little Rock, Ark., and
said he could not come. F. J. Faur-
bach of New York was missing
and the rest waited 15 minutes
for him' and "then decided he was
lost.
"What," asked an inquiring re
porter, "Is it all about?"
Then it developed that today's
meetings between the Hons of the
Chicago art institute was the re
sult of an agreement made in Ire
land in 1918.
"In December, "l 9 18,"' explained
Mr. Ruchty, "the six of us met at
Mulcahy's saloon In Passage, near
Queenstown, Ireland. Rodeni was
a naval aviator, the rest of us were
ensigns on destroyers. We had. a
pig's head dinner and at a pig's
head dinner you are supposed to
do something out of the ordinary.
So we all agreed to meet between
the lions of the art institute in
Chicago at high noon on February
zv, iszs. None of us have met
since. We are going to meet again
right here at the art Institute on
February 29, 1936."
