Find Professor Peep
ing Into Co-Ed’s Bath
Chicago..—The mysterious “peeper”
who has been annoying girl students at
the University may Dot be beard from
again. Professor Gerald Louis Weodt
was foreed to rasign from the faculty
Friday, after he bad-been caught the
night before perchetk on the«roof ef a
small adjoining building,' which per -
mitted him to peep into a bathroom *o?
Kenwood hall, a dormitory for girl
students.
Extraordinary efforts were made bv1,
the University authorities to hush up
the matter. All employes and students
were warned not to discuss the affair
under penalty of dismissal. Another
professor persuaded the janitor- and
watchman who had captured Wendt to
permit him to go, but word of the cap
ture got to the newspapers, and Presi
dent Judson coukl take no other course
thao to dismiss the culprit.
Professor-Wendt, who is a graduate
of Barvord, explains that he was mak
ing a special investigation to see what
protection girls were afforded from
night prowlers.' This “investigation”
was rudely interrupted by a special
watchman and a janitor. ,

this evenings be pleased to kiss any
person who purchases a-LOcent ticket
beforehand.”
Tickets were purchased by the score,
and at 7:30 a long row of youngs men
bad aseerabled outside )tbe booth.
Then,. punctual -to the moment, old
Torn Forson, the local butcher, almost
as beautiful as-a side of bacon, stepped
to-the front of the&oothg
