Postal Officials to Give Statement on Lampoon
Cambridge, Mass., April 28.—Authorities in Washington today were expected to decide whether the Harvard Lampoon came under the bar of objectionable pictures and literature. Local postoffice officials have held up copies of the magazines pending a decision from Washington.
A drawing which represents a man and a woman in close embrace is said to be the object of contention. At the same time the Harvard Lamp room also cam under the roof of the police station, and the end of the local police censor. The Lampoon has again appeared, however, upon the newstands, somewhat modified.
Despite those chapels, the editor of the Lampoon said that they were "not important" and did not edit. They are backed by two professors of the Harvard law school.

Field Museum Expedition Secures Fossil Specimen
Prof. Elmer S. Riggs, A. B. '94,
M. A. '96, associate curator of paleontology at the Field museum in Chicago, returned yesterday from South American field expedition to Caracol National Field expedition in the South American fossil fields.
The expedition covered about five thousand miles and approximately eight hundred specimens of one hundred species were collected. Fossils of prehistoric animal life buried five million to 15 million years in South America and differing in shape, found anywhere else in the world, have been collected by Professor Riggs, for the Field museum.
Food for $2 a Week Was the Rule in 1898
In these days of soaring prices, many a student, when he looks at the price tag, gags, recovers himself, and proceeds to buy the article, praying that the person whose pense account will be on speaking terms at the end of the month. The price did not always come so high though, even in Lawrence, as is attested by the itemized account of a man who attended the University in 1898.
He paid $2 a month room rent and he could eat for a week on $2. Instead of paying $12 or $15 for a pair of shoes, he paid $3; and a suit of the best cotton would cost the least. The boat of hats for either winter or summer could be bought for $2.
This student saved himself from the appearance of a caveman by a 13 cent haircut and a 10 cent shave. He could see a basketball game for 25 cents, and the junior prom, including a hack to and from the party depleted his allowance by only $1.50. He would have gone up to cents to $1.50, and a tired student could ride down Massachusetts in the male-drawn car for 5 cents.
About the only articles which have remained stationary in price are postage stamps and quiz books. Perhaps they were larger or of a better quality in that day. There was one expense item, however, with which present-day students date the book for the cent of a coat hook in the old cost room in Fraser hall where the Y. M. C. A. office is now located.
If anyone sighs for the return of the old days with their attendant low prices, he should stop to reflect that prices were not the only low things at that time. A dollar was considered good wages for a day's labor.
Plan Education Service
New Bureau to Advise on Movie Installation
The bureau of visual instruction maintained under the auspices of the extension division will establish a service department for various types of visual instruction equipment which are used in Kansas schools, according to E. C. Dent, secretary of the bureau.
For the past five years, the bureau has experimented with types of equipment such as motion picture projectors of all types, booths and booth specifications, oque projector systems, small accessories, to determine their suitability for school use. School boards and school superintendents to whom the bureau sends out such equipment are often used by the bureau. The equipment will be most satisfactory for their individual needs if they are in the market for such material and it is the aim of the bureau to give ublession opinion on any type which may consider, according to Mr. Dent.
However, the bureau does not plan to enter the field as a strictly commercial enterprise, but will co-operate with the schools of the state in determining and securing satisfactory equipment, using as a basis for recommendation the results of the experimentation carried on.

Dogs Have Had Their Best Days in Lawrence
The uncleased dog is doomed. Nodescript mongrel or pet thoroughbred—all must have the little license tag dangling from their collar or the Evienne dog catcher decrees that they end their rambling, carefree life, and take up their abode in the new pound in Woodland park. Worried owners might call at the new pound for their dogs, and upon finding a charge of 50 cents a day gain their release. Otherwise the canine friends of man must gaze longingly from behind their continuing fences at the careless anglings of their friends and pine the summer days away.
