THE WIND PLAYS HOB WITH HATS AND CAPS
Freshmen Lids Roll Like Pennies.
By plucking off freshman caps and sending them rolling like pennies down the Hill; by rattling the tin roofs of the University so that classes could scarcely be held; and by sweeping students and dry leaves indiscriminately, the students of March gale made itself all felt over Mt. Oread this November morning.
Several accidents have been reported; for instance, near the Administration Building at 8:30 a fair coed lost her hat; and when a rescue dashed after it, the cop shot his hand him and descented him on the article to be rescued.
By 9:30, the wind had knocked windows out of the Engineering, Mining, Geology, and Chemistry Buildings. "The fault is the wind," declared John Shea, superintendent of buildings and grounds. "The loose condition of the windows had little to do with it."
Profs. W, P. Haynes and R. C. Moore, of the departments of geology and mining, believe in advertising their wares. At odd times during the last few days they have been neatly labeling the various offices and museums in Haworth Hall. "We have some interesting things here, and we want people to know where they can be found," said the professors.
Therefore, all you who lost tempers, or hat feathers, or windows on your bed, or best remain cheerful and blame all on the strongest this fall.

Wireless Station at K. U. Receives Correct Time and Weather Forecast
Receiving messages from stations in Florida, Virginia, Texas, and from ships in the Gulf of Mexico is an ordinary occurrence at the wireless receiving station at K. U. L. E. Whittemore, instructor in physics at Ohio State University, on the station. Last night the steamship "Saturn" called the station at Ft. Sq. Houston, Texas and a few minutes later Miana, Florida, was calling the fruit boat "Buena Ventura". The steamer "Cartage" started repeating their call to Key West, Florida, an instant later, given that it was at Key West time to get his instruments in tune with those of the shin.
According to Mr. Whittemore, the receiving radius of the station is 2,000 miles and the sending instruments are capable of only 450 miles. A new aerial has been installed this winter under the wing of Fraser Hall, the last winter under the weight of the sheet. It stretches from Blake to Fraser Hall, a distance of 270 feet.
MUST KEEP MESSAGES SAYING
Because of the fact that any operator is unable to speak without permission, any message except that intended for the benefit of the public, is liable to fine and imprisonment. Mr. Whitmore could not repeat the information that was being sent through the air last night.
At five minutes till nine last night the U. S. Naval station at Arlington, Virginia, cross from Washington, D., C, commenced sending time signals, a dot being sent every second. At ten seconds of nine there was a pause—then a long dash informed the country that it was 10 P. M. Eastern ships about approaching storms and of derelicts at sea. Then follows the weather report for all of the United States. This time service is used by the department of Physics of the University in order to check the clock connected with the seismograph. By this means it is possible to tell the exact time of the occurrence of any earthquake which is recorded. Later in the evening the operator at the station at Vera Cruz in a rapid high pitched tone, in much the same way that a Mexican talks.
HEAR FROM DIFFERENT PLACES
"It is a peculiar phenomenon that on one night I am able to hear the coast states, while on another I hear stations up in the northern part of the United States, and on still another can be heard stations in California and from some of the states. And I did Mr. Whittemore "Last year the wireless department at the University did some experimental work along the line of ascertaining the cause of this. A coronarius is so fitted to enable the promoting of such experimental work."

BY THE WAY
Once upon a time Tubby, a nice dark frat asked Fuzzy, a pretty blonde soror for a date for Thursday night. Now at a certain institute of learning, he went to the university and this date was therefore more interesting and Fuzzy accepted. He called and escorted her to the Hall of music where Skovgard was leading masters.
Morpheus Attended Concert
Now Tubby had been studying every night until the hours cease to grow greater than twelve and found that he needed more sleep than Edison. He moved on, however, he nodded, in the second, he slept, and thrice he snored in the face of art.
Fuzzy has not decided whether Tubby shall be black-balled by her sisters or whether a petition shall be presented to the Board of Administration to provide official prodders at all concerts.
