KARL SENT TO POTIFF GUARDED BY SOLDIERS
Banishment is Plan Favored by Allied Ambassadors in Paris
SUICIDE BY KARL FEARED
Zita, Former Empress, is Person Really Feared by the Hungarians
Vienna, Oct. 25, 1921.—Guarded by two companies of soldiers, former Emperor Karl was taken to Potifir near where his troops were crushed in battle. Karl and his associates, including his wife Zita, will be detained there until the Allies send instructions as to what to do next. The city, Banishment the city favored by allied ambassadors in Paris.
After he had fled from the battlefield in a special train to Komorn where he rejoined Zita the advanced guard of his pursuers were close at hand and two own troops who captured him, deeming it expedient for his own safety.
The remnant's of Karl's army which tried to capture Budapest were being hunted down. The last village held by Karl was turned over and the last body of Karl's troops surrendered.
Karl and Zita were very downhearted today. A close watch was kept over Karl less he attempt suicide. The former empress Zita implored the officers to get some word to their children who were under attack, a campaign to regain the throne was launched less than a week ago.
While Zita, former empress, was the person really reaffirmed by the Hungarian people, it was Kark's unpopularity that helped him in his attempt to regain the crown.
On the verge of defeat at the gates of Budapest, Karl made an attempt to rally his former subjects. He issued a proclamation promising reforms and new elections and stating: "I only am entitled to the crown and expect all workers and soldiers to accept my orders."
But "hi8 people" were almost solid ly against him.
"Abdication both for yourself and for the crown prince, and interment in Hungary until final disposition of the king," were the terms of his surrender.
Ambassadors of the Allies at Vienna favor the banishment of Killar and Zita to some island or colony "far from civilization." It is said that Lloyd George agrees with this suggestion.
The "K" Books Have Been Shipped, Says Publishers
"THE CLIMAX" HERE NOV. 7
The "K" books have at last been shipped. At least that is the word just received from the publishers at Greenfield, Ind. The publisher of this year's book is the Mitchell Print Company, which makes a specialty of handbooks.
Coming to the Bowersock, Monday afternoon, November 7, is "The Cliam×", by Locke, a play marked by the humor that belongs to Locke's other works. It deals with the problem of the modern woman, but handles, its subject in a humorous manner, resulting in a clever comedy.
One of Locke's Best Comedies Coming to Bowersock
"one or the best textures is the musical element and, although it can be difficult to hear in a concert, the music is an attractive part of the play. The delightful voice of Miss Peterson, who takes the principal part, has been very favorably commented on by many audiences. In addition to Miss Peterson, important parts are taken by Elmer Stanhope, who took a part in the original New York production of "Abraham Lincoln," and by Oscar Deeter of the Provincetown Players of New York City, who played in "Emperor Jones." "The Climax" is frequently compared with the popular "Enter Madame," one of the greatest successes of the musical genre. The plays do not have many elements in common the greater experience of Locke as a playwright gives "The Climax," in the opinion of critics, many important points of advantage.
The books are expected to come by freight and should be here any time provided the rail strike does not delay them.
An All-University Convocation is called for Wednesday, October 26th, at 10 o'clock. Group meetings will be held in the Kansan Center with the list compiled by the County Club Committee and published in The Kansan. Classes will be shortened to 35 minute periods and the morning schedule will be as
