UI. STUDENTS RAISE $208,000 IN FEW HOURS Governor McCray Starts sl,000,000 Memorial Drive. Special to The Times. BLOOMINGTON, Ind., March S—More than s2oß,ooo—over half the $400,000 goal set for campus contributions —was , pledged within six hours after the Indlana University memorial fund campaign for $1,000,000 opened in men’s gymnasium here last night. Os the total the men had subscribed $121,100 and the women $87,000. Eleven campus organizations solicited reported 100 per cent subscriptions, averaging almost S2OO for each member. Few students have refused to give to the fund. The drive will continue tomorrow, and all classes after 10 o'clock will be called off. Governor Warren T. McCray officially opened the drive at a mass meeting of 3.000 students and townspeople, held in the men's gymnasium this afternoon. No contributions wre solicited or accepted until one hour after the meeting. By 6 o’clock a sum of $73,993 had been reported by team workers. "Education a ,and the disciplinary training of the mind acquired through a course of institutions of higher learnings are to be considered more as an investment than an expense,” said Governor McCray. "Notwithstanding, there is uppermost in my mind at al! tiroes a determination to hold taxes as low as is consistent with sane economy, yet following this theory in the last Legislature, I cheerfully urged the assembly to grant more funds to the educational institutions of our State than heretofore had been granted. "Unlike most States, the State of Indiana is called upon to support three State schools, but she has never at any tu'e shirked this responsibility.” SEES LITTLE TO STOP EXECUTION OF BEN BROOKS Governor, Opposed to Capital Punishment, Would Enforce Laws. Governor Warren T. McCray f as far as his personal sentiment is concerned, does not believe in capital punishment, but this sentiment would not lead him to interfere in the meeting out of Justice according to the State laws, he said today when asked whether any action in the case of Ben Brooks, confessed Jackson County slayer, who is in the Bartholemew county Jail under sentence of death, was considered likely. "I personally am opposed to cap.'al punishment as a matter of principle." the Governor said,” but I am here to enforce the laws as they are on the statute books." Governor McCray was asked if tl\e fact brought in court that the confession of Ben Brooks was obtained by Superintendent George A. H. Shideier of the Indiana reformatory after he had told Brooks that it was his belief that no man had ever been hung or electrocuted in the State of Indiana had previously confessed to the crime would have any bearing in the case. Mr. Shideier was asked recently if he intended to intercede for Brooks in view of the fact that the confession was obtained in that manner and Superintendent Shideier replied that he did not intend to take any further part in the case. , The statement made by Shideier was news to Governor McCray and he said that it would come up before him when the case is viewed. Governor McCray said that he knew of no extenuating circumstances in the ca.-e from newspaper acocunts that would Justify any action on his part looking toward the saving of Brooks from the electric chair. Brooks was taken to Jeffersonville from the Jackson County Jail at Brownstown shortly after the finding of the mutilated body of Amazona Montgomery, prominent Seymour and Jackson County business man and farmer. Brooks’ case grew out of the theft of chickens in which some members of his family were alleged to have been involved. Montgomery met his death in a brutal manner in a secluded and desolate spot in the eastern part of Jackson County, qnd his body was not found until three days after he had been murdered. Feeling ran high In Jackson County and Brooks, after his arrest, was put in the State reformatory for safe keeping.

SCIENCE HEADS START HUNT FOR QUEER MONSTER Chicago Instructors Plan Trip to Pat age. Jan Wilds. CHICAGO, March B.—Northwestern and Chicago University scientists prepared today for a South American ’’monster hunt.” Reports from Patagonia that a living pre-historic monster is roaming the wilds of that land have prompted university paleontologists to consider a thorough investigation. Elmer S. Riggs, curator of the Field Museum of Natural History here, will head the Chicago delegation. The mor.c-ter animal is said to be a plesiosaurian with a body like a crocodile and a neck like a swan’s— probably, scientists say, the missing link in the evolution of some modern animal. “Existence of such an animal would be proof of the truth of the geologic science,” Riggs said. EXPEDITION LEAVES BUENOS AIRES BUENOS AIRES. March B.—An expedition under direction of Clemcnti O’Neill, dir?ctor of the Buenos Aires zoological gardens, plans to leave Saturday for the Patagonian wilderness to capture dead or alive the prehistoric plesiorsaurus reported existing there. The hunters will be equipped with harpoons and firearms and will be ready to do battle if need be with more than one of tho prehistoric monsters. Dr. O’Nclli said today there had been other reports of plesiosaurus beiDg seen in the region where Martin Sheffield, an Englishman, claims to have discovered one. CREATURE SEEN IN REMOTE REGIONS. This remote region, miles from a railroad, Is known as tho graveyard of the Kurassic period, in which the plesiosaurrus lived. It abounds in skeletons and other relics of the age of giant monster* such as the icthythasurus and tho sea dinosaurus. Dr. O'Nelli believes it possible one or more plesiosauri may still be living in that lost world among tho fossilized bones of his contemporaries-a Methuselah of ante dlluviau days. The expedition upon arriving at Lake Esgul, deep in the Andes where the giant reptile is supposed to be lurking, will construct a boat and search the water for the mysterious “thing." If the reiic of bygone days can be taken alive the plan is to carry It back to Buenos Aires for the zoo. Otherwise it will be embalmed—equipment for this will be carried by the hunters. Lake Esguel is a small lagoon without any surface outlet to the sea. It is a very deep basin, near latitude 43, an ideal

place in which to seek ancient forms of life as there has probably been no decided change in its physical aspect since prehistoric ages. If a pleslosaums is found it will be a great step for science, organizers of the expedition said. Scientists will be able to learn about the functioning of the pineal gland, whether the third frontal eye functions, whether the nervous system depends entirely upon the brain and spinal meduala or has Independent active ganglions. “If Sheffield really has seen one of these monsters alive it will be of great importance to science," said Dr. O’Neill. “It will likely be about nine or ten feet long with a body like a crocodile and a long neck.” Dr. O’N lli does not believe this plesiosaurus actually lived In prehistoric times. He thinks it is linked to lost ages by many generations and that its own years are probably not more than 500. EXPEDITION' LEAVES BUENOS AIRES. He added he had received reports of traces of other species of pre-historic beasts in Patagonia. One was the neamylodon, about the size of a hippopotamus. Its hide and bits of hone with fresh gristle attached were found in a cave.

I noticed marks on the grass near the lake like tracks of heavy cart wheels. The grass remained flattened not growing up again, causing the supposition that an enormous animal had glided over it. “I have seen in the center of the lake an animal with a large swan like head. Its movement in the water suggests the body of a crocodile.” Wilker Pays $<37,000 for Two Properties The one-story business block at 126130 Soutn Pennsylvania street and the two-story building at 523-529 Massachusetts avenue have been transferred to Fred Walker for $07,000 by Mrs. Florence M.

FLOWER SHOW TRADE TICKETS ARE RELEASED Half Price Admissions Issued for Use of Merchants. Charles G. Pahud, chairman of the admissions committee for the Fifth National Flower Show, which. Is to be held in the Manufacturers’ building at the Indiana State fairground, March 25 to April 1, today announced the release of 20,000 trade tickets for the flower show to be sold at one-half the regular 50 cents admission or 25 cents each, including the war tax. “These trade tickets,” said Mr. Pahud, "were obtained as a concession from the national flower show committee, when tile responsibility of staging the national flower show was assumed by Indianapolis, and will te sold in multiples of 100 to Indianapolis merchants and manufacturers who wish their employes to attend the national flower show at onehalf the usual rate of admission." “This opportunity affords the merchant and manufacturer an excellent chance of securing large numbers of tickets for a

show, which all of his employes will want to see nt an extremely low rate.” As only 20,000 of such trade tickets were authorized by the national flower show committee, it is believed that the supply will be exhausted within a short time after the tickets are released. All trade tickets will be sold in packages of 100 at $25 a package. Trade tickets will also be available to civic organizations and clubs as such, and several requests have already been received from leading Indianapolis lunch

Wilkin-Hale State Bank failed to open for business today. It was the only State bank in Oklahoma City and had a capli tal stock of $200,000. A placard in the window said a reorganization was being effected. A steady withdrawal of funds was responsible for the closing today, according to the State banking department. This makes more than forty banks closed in the State in 1922.
