But simply because the university has no rules governing rooming arangements for any such animal. “Ozzle” has been sharing a dor mitory room with Malcolm C. Vos burgh of Lepeer, Mich., scholasti cally high-ranking sojmomore. College authorities learned of the unprecedented rooming arrangement through a frightened and indig nant chairwoman. Vosburgh tried to explain that “Ozzle” was a perfectly harmless little fellow and made an Ideal roommate. But authorities couldn’t see it that way and now “Ozzle” doesn’t live there any more.

Four hundred and fifty republlcah leaders were arrested In a series of raids here, Including George Papan dreou, head of the new republican party, who was held In Jail. Thirty tousand armed Independ ents and republicans were reported In the revolting force In Crete and It was feared the uprising might spread to the mainland. Feeling la Bitter Feeling Is bitter regarding the proposed restoration of George II and republicans and liberals Intend to boycott the plebiscite to be held Nov. 3 on the question of asking George,, to return to the throne from which he was ousted In 1922. The revolt In Crete, birthplace of Eleuthercos Venlzelos who led the bloody revolution, of last February against monarchist tendencies In the government, took the govern ment by surprise, apparently. The army Is to take the oath of allegiance to George tomorrow, and the day has been proclaimed a na tional holiday In commemoration of the capture of Thessalonlca from the Turks In 1912. But It was known they expected bitter dissatisfaction with the course of events In prospect as the result of the bloodless coup o, Oct. 10 by which the national assembly, at te demand of army and navy chiefs, voted the abolition of the republic, Invited George to return at once, and named Gen. George Kondylls, the country’s strong man, as regent, premier and minister of marine. There was not only opposition to the restoration but to the Kondylls government. en Are Well Armed The men In the Cretan revolt were reported to be well aremd, and they are known as valiant flgters who have carried arms since early boy hood. News of the uprising was not known publicly In the capital until late last night, several hours after It started. At once the government began ar rests of known republicans, and seized 50 republican army and navy officers, among them one general who were ordered deported to Aghlasleftratius Island. As the Cretan Rebellion started, republican officers here proclaimed that they would boycott the monar chist plebiscite. ' There were Indications that the rebellion might prove th.e definitive test of the power and popularity ol the Royalists under Kondylls. They have proceeded triumphantly with their plans, Inviting George to come here at once In anticipation of the prebisclte. He, at London, refused to come until he was assured by a plebiscite majority that his people really wanted him. _ Long confident that the country wants Oeorge back, Kondylls moved swiftly when he seized power Octo ber 10. He proclaimed martial law the cabinet at Its first meeting vot ed to restore Greek citizenship tc die king and other members of the <oyal family, and it was announcer i.hat the governmental power woulc be centered In Kondylls personally pending the king’s return. There has been apparent apathy ^n the part of the general public oward the Impending plebiscite lesplte the bitterness of the poll' lcally conscious. It has been re arded ae certain that the monar hlsts would win by a big majority Claiming SB to 40 per cent of the Idctorate as republicans, Themis to lofouhs, liberal leader and sucoes to the exiled Venlzelos, said tha epubllcans would boycott the Nov' ■ 8 plebiscite.
