When boor Ih ordorod It Is delivered In daylight, and no" bonus tiro mndo about It. "Tho old Htudont affairs commltteo understood tho situation exactly and considered It nonsense- to prohibit decent beer drinking on tho campus. Dr. Jordan, who Is a monomaniac on temperance, dumandod that tho com mittee put a midden Htop to drink ing. This was about u mouth ago. Tho commltteo couldn't sea It his way, so Jordan politely foruad Prof. Durrainl. th chnlrmnn, to resign. prohibiting boor busts and declaring that if a student took a drink of beer nny place ho did so at hta porll. A copy of this oil lot wts mailed to each fraternity and was recolvod lato In tho afternoon. "Of courso a protost .wns in order and tho regular form of Informal protest Is n parade.

Everybody who played an Instrument hiurrlcd up to got a plnco In tho band. "There wero no 'ring leaders' as tho papers have stated. Nobody had any Idea whoro we woro going and nobody cared particularly. Someono suggested that wo march down to Clark's houso and boo If he would mako a Bpeech. So tho band Btarted" for Clark'B and wo all fol lowed. Clark wasn't home. I think he got wind of tho parndo and skip ped out. Ills wife enmo to tho door and Bald, 'I suppose this Is for the benefit of Prof. Clark, but ho Isn't at home.' Wo thon Bang 'Hall Stan ford Hall," and marched back much disappointed. Two or three fools In tho crowd showed tholr lack of breeding by tnlklng back to Mrs. Clnrk wllh such remarks ns, 'Can't you phono for hlm7' 'Toll him we'll call again,' etc. They wero prompt ly called down by tho roBt of tho pnrnders and I have no doubt they woro heartily ashamed of themselves. .Wo then mnrched bnck to tho Quod, through tho Library, and wound nip' at tho Memorial Court, whoro after listening to the reading or the procla mation nnd giving throe choorB for tho old commltteo wo quietly dis banded. "ThlB Is nil thoro wnB to It. It lnsted about an hour, and tho stu dents went homo and got to work. It was no different from dozons of othor parades and no ono thought anything moro about It. I know a dozen fellows in tho parado who novor drank a quart of boor In tholr lives. Two of tho follows, .11. C. Croon nnd a follow named Boyd aro momborB of tho student tompornnco socloty nnd Green Is president of thnt organization. Both of thoso men signed tho petition. Knight Jordnn, President Jordnn's son, was a1no In tho parado and was ono of tho slgnors, In fnct ovorybody In tho pnrndo signed tho potltlon doclnrlng thnt they wero Just as blameworthy jib tho 12 who woro flrod. Tho 12 woro not lenders, becnuso thoro woro no regular leaders. Everybody fol lows tho band, which gonorally goos whorovor It takes a notion. "Tho nctlon of tho committee nearly knocked tho student body off Its foot. They didn't know what to mako of It. To flro anybody for taking pnrt In a parado at Stanford wiib unheard or and unthinkable Wo stood around with out mouths opon, wondering If nnothor enrthqunko was coming. Tho parado occurred on Thursday and tho commltteo took notion on tho following Tuosdny. The pnrndo had boon practically forgot ten. "Tho wording In Clnrk's nn nouncomont, suoh as 'rowdyism,' nnd 'Insulting conduct ninda tho wholo student body furious. For a whllo ovorybody was In favor of striking. "On Wednosdny Prosldent Murphy of tho studont body cnllod a moot ing which wns attended by noarly tho wholo malo contingent of tho university. All thoso who woro In tho pnrndo signed the potltlon I hnvo mentioned nnd nil tho rost or tho men, about GOO, hnndod In nnothor potltlon demanding tho re-lnstnto-mont or tho 12 taispondod men (whom tho commltteo claimed woro tho only onos they woro.ablo to Idon tiry) and doclnrlng that they would stand by tho 12 men nnd tho rost of thoso In tho pnrndo, no mnttor wlint tho nctlon of the commltteo might bo. In othor words nearly tho wholo student body (mon) have pledged thenuolvos to loavo the unl vorslty If the man aro not re-Instated. "I don't think anybody will ba flrod. Nearly all tho parndors hnvo been boforo tho commltteo In tho Inst two days, askQd If tho signatures woro theirs and If wo took part in tho pnrndo, nnd excused. No ono can toll what tho rosult will bo, but I think It will be all right To fire 250 mon for no offeuso at all Is sim ply propostcrous. "It looks on tho fnco of It ns If tho students havo backed down, but they havo not. Many woro for strik ing at onoe, but tho sanor element havo Insisted that a strike will do jno good, and that It Is hotter to of ,rer an apology even if it U not duo. "We havo now mndo our last move. It Is un to Clark to come through or there will ho tho groat oit bunch of trouble that ovor hap ponod In any university. Clark Is wrong and he knows It. Public sentlmont and tho San Francisco nowspapors nro all on our sldo. Even tho Examiner, which yellow shoot has never mlsod a chance horotoforo to shoot It Into the stu-l ugiius uuni, is tar us since uiarK and Jordan have mado themselves rldlou lous and obnoxious. "If Clark doesn't do tho square .thing tho alumnae will probably step in and mako things hot for him. Tho wholo student body Is fighting for a principle and they are right. Wo aro going to light It out. For myself, although my degree ta only, six weeks distant, I am perfectly .willing to leave the university if tho 12 men aro not tnken back whether they fire mo or not.
