BIDDLE STUDENT BODY ON STRIKE ffuspension of Senior For Insubordination Resented by Members of .all Classes. . The faculty of Biddle University will meet Thursday afternoon to consider what action shall be taken With re gard to the "strike" of about 80 stu dents Wednesday in consequence ,cf the suspension of one of their num ber. The students, who refused to report at classes Wednesday morning, were still "out Thursday. Members of the student-body announced their determi nation to remain out until the faculty agrees to withdraw the suspension of the student. What steps the faculty will tako S could not be stated Thursday morning by Dr. H. L. McCrorey, president of th.e institution. A statement regarding the "strike," issued Wednesday night by students, declared "200 college students went on strike as the result of indefinite suspension of a membtr of the senior class." Dr. McCrorey said Thursday morning that the total number of those refusing to a report for classes is 80. The statement of the students con tinued: . "The immediate " cause of the" sus pension was said to be insubordination to constituted authorities of the insti tution. The student body, feeling that the drastic actions taken by the author ities too severe for the misdemeanor, asked for reconsideration of the case, which was not granted. This resulted in the striking of the four college classes. "The. cause of the actions of the Stu dents was not confined to the suspen sion of the student, but there-, has been a general dissatisfaction among the students with the present administra tion." Dr. McCrorey said Thursday the students asked the faculty to hold a meeting and then went on "strike" without waiting for a meeting to be held. That trouble between' the students and faculty is reported to have start ed last Friday night when Dr. Mc Crorey and Superintendent Williams were making the rounds to. see that the students were in their rooms. Dr. McCrorey said the superinten dent knocked at the door of one room about 10 o'clock. The studgnt, who was dressed and sitting in his room, according to Dr. McCrorey, orderea the knocker away. Dr. McCrorey en tered the room a few minutes later and reprimanded the Student. The student reiterated his statement that the col lege ofiiclals had no business knocking at his d6or, the president said. ? Inspection of rooms was decided' upon as 'one means of imposing re strictions in order to keep the students off the streets at - nights, Dr. Mc Crorey said. Rather strict rules were imposed, after" a period of laxity, and students are chafing under this re striction, ' President McCrorey added. The action of the student in oppos ing constituted authority was taken by the faculty as sufficient reason for ordering his indefinite suspension. Stu dents considered this measure too dras tic with the result that ' at . a mass meeting .Tuesday, night they voted to "strike" until the suspended member is reinstated. , Theological and preparatory depart ents of the college are not affected by the "strike." Teachers -went to th!ir class rooms as usual Thursday morn ing. Dr. McCrorey said, and some stu dents were in attendance. The matter is expected to be thrash ed out at a meeting of the faculty Thursday afternoon'.Members of the student body may be present at this meeting, it was intimated. Meanwhile, the "striking" students are using the University only as a, place for eating and sleeping. To . save several trains of ears from destruction from fire at . the winter Quarters of a circus . in Bridgeport Connecticut, recently, three elephants were pressed into service. The ani mals quietly pushed the trains out of danger and then returned to their quarters. 8 SS0 yard 16-inch dark material and yard 36inch lining. Price 15 cents.
