EAGLES MAKE GREAT HIT

POPULAR STUDENT SAYS

TREATMENT IS NOT JUST

Members of Student Body Up

in Arms and Declare Faculty Shielded Others and Made Example of Carey.

On the charge that ho cheated in. his

xamination. Clifford Carey, a Sophmore, at Earlhani college, and the -est football player on the rani, bo

lides lelnu' the best man in trade ath

letics at 'school,' and a star basket ball

blayur, was yesterday uneon:IiUjnai!y

hxpelled from the college. Th3 facul

ty at a meeting to consider iarej &

ase, decided by unanimous vote thru

ho must be dismissed from tne; insti

tution. President Kelly sain last

liight that Carey -w as not charged with

Cheating in any particular examtna-

lion, out mat evidence ol jusum iuio

Showed he had "cribbed" m neariy all

is tests since entering school. lie

aid that Carey was allowed to enter ollece this fall under certain condi-

ions and that these had been violated.

Announcement of Carey s dismissal

aused much excitement among stu-

lents, and they are unanimous ia their

ktand for the popular student. They

tleclare that although Carey was not

is Droficient in his studies as in ath

letic contests, yet that he was thor-

mehlv honorable. Careys dismissal

from school will greatly weaken he

football team, as he was a tower of

treneth at full back and did goal

kicking. He was the popular cnoice

for captain next year.

Carey's homo is at Carmel, ;ind.

Carey's Statement. Carey was seen last night by a

Ipallndhim reDrcsentativo and admitt-

ed that he had been "cribbing" on.

Home tests. He said however that he had but' been unfortunate in being caught as "cribbing" is the rule rather that the -exception among students at Earlham. He said that, if all the students who "cribbed" wero -dismissed from school the attendance would be cut down until there was hardly anything left but "sissies". He felt

Ithat he had been unjustly treated in

Ithat he was not dismissed irom

school before the Wabash football

game was played he admitted to

President Kelly that he had not won his credits fairly. He said that the authorities had allowed him to play in the game in the hope that he

could help win for his school. He said that he had been admitted to Earlham this fall because he was

I football player and that now the sea

son was over the faculty was ready

I to kick him out.

The students admire Carey's manly

admission and in chapel this morning there will be popular denomstration on the part of the students up

holding Carey and denouncing the

faculty.

Prominent Student's Opinion. When seen last night, one of the

most prominent young men in the

athletic, student and social world at

the college stated that he thought ! that the faculty of he college had aj grudge against Carey or they never have "fired" him. He further said, j that ever since Carey figured in the :

kidnapping, episode at the college last

year, when several Freshmen kidnapped the Sophomore class leaders, in order to prevent them from attend

ing the SophomoreSenior banquet, the faculty had been down on Carey

and that they got him back again this year, because he was a football player, and as the chances for a good team wero bright, they thought Carey would be a tower of strength, and after he had practically won three games by himself during the season and was largely in other ways responsible, for the victorious team, the'

faculty had kicked him out. He said that he thought because they had a grudge against Carey they wanted to use him as an example. The Case of Eva Newsom. He said the faculty did not pay any attention or rather hushed up the case, last year when Miss Eva New-

soni "cribbed" her graduating thesis,

and which prevented her from accepting the Tiryu Mawr scholarship, which the faculty had bestowed upon her. He stated that because she was a friend of several men on the faculty she was not exposed, and just because the faculty had a grudge against Carey they wanted to make an example of him. when they should of made an example of the first person they cpught at it. lie also stated that if all the students of the colic sre wore "canned" when they "Cribbed," there wo?ild not be one hundred 'jersons Iett in the whole school.

At two o'clock this morning the committee named by the Palladium and five lodges interested finished the count of ballots in the Palladium voting contest, showing the "Knights of Pythias to be winners by a most conclusive vote. The winning lodge gets the splendid $850 piano exhibited in the Starr salesrooms on Main street while the Druids who come second in the contest will be gi.en the lodge altar and bible, purchased from the Romey Furniture Company. This prize was valued at $75. The gentleman's ring given to the man getting the largest number of votes for any order was won by August Thomas who turned in 505,1C0 votes for the K. of P's. His nearest competitor was Franklin Moore who had secured 303,897 ballots for the Druids. Mrs. Ed Stigleman with . 142,000 votes won the ladies ring. The rings were of gold with solitaire diamond setting. They were purchased of the Haner Jewelry Company. The-contest was finished with a flourish. It became exciting to the extreme at the finish. Votes by the thousands poured in on the committee at the eleventh hour, but with coats off and sleeves rolled up the counters never flinched and the adding machine kindly loaned by the Second National Bank kept up its constant tick. A large crowd stood in the lobby of the Westcott Hotel awaiting the result. It early became noised around that the K 'sf P. order had sufficient votes to win, but the Druids did not give up and many of their friends waited until the last to hear the result. Most of the crowd, however, was soundly sleeping when the count was completed. Everything passed off smoothly and the decision of the judges was received with good feeling by ?!l concerned. The committee which made the Count wac composed of Dr. Richard Schillinger, Mayor of Richmond, Jesse Bailey,. Superintendent of Police, named by the Palladium; C W. Genn, ancTJohn Towle for Red Men; William Whitacre and Charles Muey for Druids; John Meerhoff and Dr. J. M. Wampler, for Kn"g!-ts of Pythias; George B. McClellan and Henry Rost for Modern Woodmen and Mr. Strattan and George L. Scott for Odd Fellows. The committee organized by electing Supt. Bailey chairman and Mr. Genn, Secretary.
