I complete investigation of the
Greek letter fraternity system was
1 ordered at the University of Texas
today following the death Sunday
night of Nolte McElroy during his
initiation into a campus fraternity.
I Investigating thoroughly the

Elroy's death is a faculty commit-

Monday night asked President H,
Y. Benedict to appoint at once.
The popular 19-year-old football
player died in a hospital a few
minutes after his collapse from
crawling over a pair of electrically-
charged bed springs. Though this
case did not furnish excuse enough
for' the "boarding" of the frater-
nities, the Board of Regents in-
dicated, nevertheless, that it had
brought to the foreground an un-
dercurrent of sympathy against
them.
A grand jury investigation was
asked Monday, but this promised
to be a mere formality, as District
. Attorney Moore said no indications
were been considered.
