STUDENT HERE FINDS BROTHER LOST IN WAR
Oscar Mamigonian Receives Notice From Armenia That Child Is Safe
TO BRING BOY TO AMERICA
Armenian Student's Family Was Broken Up By Turk Raids
Oscar Mamiganon, an Armenian student here, is happy. Yes, extremely so. For last evening the Registrar's office notified him of a communication they had received from his former instructor. It was not an ordinary letter, for it contained the information that Oscar had been seeking for six years. It concerned the whereabouts of Oscar's only living relative a small brother. The older brother was only four years old when the older brother had last heard of him.
The family, consisting of a father, who was a professor in one of the largest Armenian universities, the boy who was killed was separated during the war. The father was killed, the mother died, the sister was carried off by the Turks Oscar came to this country, and the brother was in confusion of the war and conflict.
Chancellor Lindley and Geo O. Foster have been to the Near East Relief headquarters, in the scope of finding some trace of the boy, whose relative received a letter from the Harpock Unit of the Near East Relief.
The letter said that a small boy was in one of the orphanages, known as Brand Vartianen, who said his name is really Mamigianoman, and that he took the name of his father, Vartan. Brand says that he has a brother "Ougar" in America, but he knows very little about him as he was small and he had nothing away and he has heard nothing from him.
F.
Ooc expects to send for the brother as soon as possible, although it is not advisable to send money at the university. Unacount is a junior in the University.
Although the small boy is separated from his relatives he is more fortunate than thousands of the little children of the East.
The children already in the orphanages are being well cared for. The small brother of Oscar is well, but he asks that the committee tell his brother "that he is the only person who can help him and that he can do something for him." He wishes Oscar to write to him right away.
"Sailors" Decorate Elite Masculinity
Blossoming with the early fervor of springtime, even with the dandelions, comes the sailors with all their brothers, crush, panama, et al to graze the domes of the elite masculinity of the Hill. Late Friday evening, a few of the more daring ones discarded caps, felts, and other antiquated head apparel for the straw. In many cases the old falttail trunk was opened, the discarded luffed front, scratched, passed on, given a brushing with lemon juice, on a tooth washer, and renovated to the extent that it would "pass" most places for one just off the shelf.
But anything, just so it was a wunny went yesterday even though it may have been a relic of prewar times. As the throng marched to the churches yesterday each man set up with a crenation in his lapel and a lady on his arm one was greatly reminded of the people on their way to an orange grove.
In spite of it all, a little tingle runs through ones frame to think that "summer has come, the straw is here," and also a little shiver "causes the sooner the summer, the quicker that finals.

Remarkable Groth of Radio Telephony Shown—No One Knows What Future May Bring Forth
"Although radio telephony is never likely to replace ordinary telephone it is possible that radio transmission will be employed in the sending of toll messages from city to city," said Dr. Austin Bailey, an employee at the Eric Company. This opinion is endorsed by Prof. Austin Bailey, of the department of physics here, who says that Radio Toll service is already in us between Los Angeles, Cal., and Santa Catalina Island, a distance of some thirty-seven miles, and that Toll serien between Deal Beach and Atlantic steppes will soon be made possible.
There is no necessity of any place being out of communication with the rest of the world according to Professor Bailey. We now have radio in such a high state of development that all our phones are cut off the radio can still be used to send messages. Men on exploring expeditions in remote places where wires have ever been stretched can been in touch with their friends by everyone known, communication by wireless at sea is already invaluable.
Radio is too general; it goes over too large an area to replace ordinary telephone communication between individuals. It is not possible to direct radio messages so absolutely, but it might be used in sending toll messages. A "telephone subscriber might talk by wire with a radio station in his city, and the messenger which he would have to transmit could might then be transmitted by wireless to radio station in another city, and then sent by telephone to the person addressed." agree Dr. Steinemt and Professor Bailey.
The radio will perform its most valuable service in broadcasting Speakers can address the nation at large, as was done with the President's inaugural address. Lecturers can speak to large audiences. College professors can lecture to many who are not present at church. Market and ministers already preach to many who are not present at church. Market and ministers reports are being broadcasted daily.
The Radio Corporation of America makes an interesting statement on the present day shortage of radio broadcast receiving apparatus, with special regard to vacuum tubes. It is stated that the April production of vacuum tubes used in receiving sets will reach 150,000. The production of vacuum tubes for the delivery of 175,000 vacuum tubes, and, according to public and trade requirements there will be a demand for 200,000 or more in June.
Penn Students Concerned About Absence of Wood
The uncertainty regarding the return of General Wood from the Philippines to assume the provisorship of the University of Pennsylvania is arousing concern among students, alumni, and University authorities there who have confidently expected the General's return by September 1. The present indications are that General Wood will either assume office during his term in the second year or be obliged to resign the position as Pennsylvania's head, which he now holds. Only a critical turn of affairs in the insular possessions will persuade the Board of Trustees to extend his leave of absence.
Miss Helen Buck of Kansas City spent Friday and Saturday in Lawrence as the guest of the Sigma Kappa sorority.
