The denial is regarded as significant in that it is taken as proof that Greece will not permit Bulgarian participa- tion in a drive on Sloniki, if it should be undertaken. Crones Still at Large, Say Police Body of Man Found Dead in Raiiroad Yards not That of Chef New York, .;Feb. 25.-The police were disappointed again today in their quest for the elusive Jean Crones, the anarchist chef wanted for the attempt to poison Archbishop Mundelein and other dignitaries of the Cathlic church when they attended a banquet in Chicago. It is stated today that the body of a man who committed suicide in the Central Railroad of New Jersey freight yards Thursday night was not that of the missing cook.. Admiral Refuses to State Opinion Winslow, U. S. N., Keeps Out of Ar- gument as to Arming of Merchant Vessels Washington, Feb. 25.-Attempts made by Representative Britten at a hearing of the house naval committee today to induce Admiral Winslow to express an opinion concerning the arming of merchantmen ended in failure. Admiral Winslow replied to all the questions put to him on this point by saying that although he had an opin- ion on the subject he was not an in- ternational law expert. He especially emphasized the ne- cessity for sea training as a qualifi- cation of naval officers in a discussion of the defects of the naval system, and proposed that boys be taken at Annapolis at 14 years of age, and af- ter two years of academic study, sent to sea for two or three years, coming back to complete their studies ashore. LINER CRETAN BADLY DAMAGED IN COLLISION WITH DOROTHY Norfolk, Va., Feb. 25.--The Merchant and Miners' liner Cretan, bound from Philadelphia to Savanndh, was in col- lision with the steamer Dorothy 14 miles north of Cape Hatteras during the thick fog early this morn- ing. The Cretan was badly damaged, but her fifty passengers were transferred to the Dorothy, which was in no dan- ger of sinking, and both vessels start- ed for Norfolk as fast as they could. A large hole was stove in the Cretan's starboard bow and immense quanti- ties of water penetrated one compart- ment. According to the wireless dispatch, the Cretan was able to proceed under her own steam. No one was hurt on either vessel. PONY RIDER IS SUSPENDED In a regular meeting held Thursday night the faculty of the Literary Col- lege concurred in the recommendatior of the administrative board that 34 students be required to withdraw be cause of failure, according to an an- nouncement made yesterday. The ad ninstrative board has also asked a number of others to leave for the same reason. Reinstatement for these students is controlled by the administrative board. In the case of the freshmen whio have been obliged to withdraw for poor scholarship the understanding is that an application for reinstatement after one semester of absence will bie fa- favorably considered. The case of Chas. S. Murphy, '19, of Ogde.nsburg, N. Y., who was accused of cheating during an examination, was considered, and Murphy has been sus- pended for one semester. In addition, 13 degrees of Bachelor of Arts, five of Bachelor of Science, and four teachers' diplomas were recom- mended. About 40 students completed the necessary work for the Bachelor's degree, but nearly half of the number have entered the graduate school and will receive their degrees with the graduating class in June. The whole matter of the election of studies and of classification was re- ferred to a committee for investigation and report. The committee was asked to give particular attention to the large number of changes subsequent to the first filing of election cards. Sev- eral members of the faculty have sug- gested that the policy of allowing changes of elections be abandoned rnd that students be required to con- tinun with a subject once elected. The requirements of the combined course leading to the B. S. and M. D. degrees were modified to include two bours of laboratory work in physics. This was done to conform to the re- quirements of the state board of medi- cal registration. The measure will be passed upon by the regents and, if' adopted, will go into effect with the be- ginning of the fall term in 1917.

FACUILTYDROPS 34 fmusical Talent Pleases Morgan F RU M LIT CO LLSE iDirector of Opera Say, "Tres Rouge" T~Thursday Hits Best Amateur Selections Regular Meeting on Thursdayein He Ever Heard Also ConsMers Changes in Lit-Medie Requirements "It certainly is unusual amateur music," was the answer given by Di- rector Morgan when asked his opinion' of the music for the Union opera, "Tres Rouge." "It suggests variety, and is catchy in every respect. I believe that there is an unusual amount of musical talent in this university." When questioned further as to whether he thought the songs of th s year's opera would remain popular with the student body for an extended period, as has been the case in pre- vious years, he stated: "Some of these songs are bound to be whistled and sung for a long time. All in all, they are quite the best collection of ama- teur songs that I have ever heard." He then went on to praise the work of Abraham T. Gornetsky, '17, who has the honor of having written the music for all but one of the musical scores for the 1916 opera. W. A. P. John, '16, writer of the book, is also the writer of the lyrics for all the scores. In speaking of Gornetsky, Morgan said, "It isn't often that you can find a man who can do so many different kinds of music so well as Mr. Gornetzky. In my opinion he is another Irving Ber- lin." The director expressed his satisfac-, tion with the work of both cast and chorus men, and commended the spirit of the men who are taking part in this year's production. Director Morgan has directed 16 shows in the past two years, having directed plays in his career at Har- vard, Yale, Annapolisf Pennsylvania and other universities. He also statedf that he expects to specialize on college productions in the future, primarily because.he likes the spirit of college men and likes to work with them. SOY.
