The survivor, Comanche, a horse, lives again today in Walt Disney's movie, "Tonka," now playing in a local theater.
The only U.S government survivor of the 1876 Custer massacre at Little Big Horn is on display at the KU Natural History Museum—stuffed, of course.
Comanche Gallops Again
Comanche is shown in the above picture being viewed by visitors to the museum.
Comanche's fame dates from the time a detachment of U.S. Cavalry troops arrived at the scene of
The horse's owner, an officer in Gen. Custer's 7th Cavalry, had been killed along with the rest of the soldiers by warriors led by Chiefs Rain-in-the-face and Crazy Horse.
Custer's last stand two days after the massacre. The only living thing left was Comanche, and even he was seriously wounded.
Comanche was nursed back to health by the Army following his discovery and transferred to Ft. Riley, Kan. He died there on Nov. 7, 1891, at the age of 31.
Around the Campus Theta Chi to Move Three Professors Into New House Write Indian Book
"We will be more or less camping there for a while anyway." De Ros Hogue, Lawrence senior and a member of the fraternity, said.
Theta Chi fraternity will be moving into at least part of its new house between semesters.
The fraternity will occupy one floor, a study tower and the dormitory part while construction will be continued on the rest of the house.
"It should be pretty recognizable as a house around March," Hogue said. "There is a lot of carpenter work that must be done before it is complete."
Plant Growth Study Gets $2,200 Grant
Research on regulating plant growth has been granted $2,200 from the Frederick Gardner Cottrell Fund administered by Research Corp.
The study is directed by Albert W. Burgstahler, assistant professor of chemistry. Graduate students seek information on the inhibition and regulation of plant growth with certain acids.
The authors are Dean Kenneth E. Anderson of the School of Education; E. Gordon Collister, professor of education and director of the Guidance Bureau, and Ralph E. Kron, now at the University of Pittsburgh.
Two KU professors and one former instructor have written a book on Indian school children entitled "The Indian Child Goes to School."

"I'd walk a mile for a Camel!"
More people want America's real cigarette than any other brand today. For 10 straight years, Camel has been the top-selling cigarette of all. The Camel blend of costly tobaccos has never been equalled for rich flavor and easygoing mildness. The best tobacco makes the best smoke.
Cast off the fads and fancy stuff . . .
Have a real cigarette have a CAMEL
