"By symbolizing our movement we believe we will attract many students who have felt but never acted on their beliefs. Therefore, we are calling what we call a 'Bolshevist' meeting in 4 o'clock this afternoon in Fraser

"Red stands for revolution," said George Strong, who will probably lead the meeting this afternoon, "and it signifies an uprising against the Senate rulings on the University lately, and not only in the matter of parties. See our effigy? One foot white and one foot black, get the idea?" Unbalanced.
On the bulletin board in the vestibule of Green Hall is the following notice;
"We, the understigned members of the senior law class swear to punish any member of that class, who does not appear Wednesday morning with a red symbol of some sort, to the fullest extent possible with the use of paddles, and disquallify him from wearing the senior law insignia."

Ritt, John, Dancy, M. B Atlas, and
Anaas.
CRYSTALLIZING, NOT LEADING
"We are not attempting to lead public opinion," said William Wertz, president of the senior laws. "We are simply trying to crystallize what we believe is the sentiment of the students of the University, against the usurpation of their powers by the University Senate."
"Student opinion seems to be of one idea," said an onlooking faculty member during the fire, "and I guess that is enough said."

Miss Moodie, private secretary to the Chancellor, said: "As far as I know the following amount of subsistence money will be paid to the army and the amount due to the navy will be determined later.

They will also receive twenty-five cents a day for room from October 1 to the time that
