6 FREE SPEECH CURB CHARGED AT Pin University of Pittsburgh Situ ation Held Precarious by Association of Professors. ■y th» Associated Preaa. PITTSBURGH, Pm., December 28. The American Association ot Univer sity Professors, in Its December bulle tin, makes a report on academic free dom at the University of Pittsburgh, In which It Is said freedom of speech by Pitt Instructors “is precarious and la held not by right, but the grace of tile administration.” The report is based on an investiga tion made at Pitt last Spring by Georg£ Sabine and Carl Wlttke of Ohio State University following dissolution of the Pitt Liberal Club by university author ities after the club held a Mooney-811l- Ings meeting on the campus against orders of school heads. Situation Held Difficult. •There is no disposition on the part of the faculty.” the report said, “to deny that the situation of the adminis tration really is difficult. It has adopt ed a highly ambitious project of ex pansion calling for greatly Increased endowment; It is dependent for funds partly on a State government, in both of which Influence and peculiar point of view certain big business and indus trial Interests seem to be paramount.” Last\ Only ® ne Da y I Dav ■ kft to Save I _ 7 1 NeaHy I Tomorrow ■ g O% I f / On Several Lines II • M Os Nationally Known I jftemuL Qltui»S hoes I Plat dbmfirt) Values as high as $16.00 Reduced to |K W. don’t Met to l Physical Culturo at REGULAR prices—but H when they're reduced—it means double value fbr leas money.

Erected by the workmen as an expression of their appreciation of the religious importance of the cathedral, the star can be ' seen from virtually every section of tiie city. In previous years it has gleaned forth from a posi tion directly above the sanc tuary. but since last Christmas the roof of the choir has been completed and the star has moved westward, keeping pace with the advancement in the building of the great edifice. The bulletin contained an answer by Dr. John G. Bowman, university chan cellor, who was given proofs of the re port. Dr. Bowman said: “The prejudice of one member of the committee was evident on his ar rival at the university. He seemed eager to express his own views on the Issue rather than And the facts. Charges Insinuations. "I regret the tendency of the article to make insinuations rather than to state facts. “An Investigation of a university by the American Association of University Professors places upon the association an obligation to have its work con ducted Tn fairness and executed In a judiciary manner.” Dr. Bowman tonight said he had nothing to add to his previous comment.

NEW YORK, December 23.—High over Manhattan in a hundred-mile-an hour flying telephone booth reporters yesterday talked to the liner Leviathan 500 miles at sea. As casually as if sitting in their own homes two reporters and three engi neers of the Bell Telephone Laboratories soared 3,000 feet over the city in a big tri-motored plane, asked for and got the Leviathan as if they were calling for a number just around the corner. They passed the time of day and heard the gossip of the ship from Commodore Harry Cunningham and passengers aboard the vessel. This new step in communication was effected by a radio-land-wire-radio hook-up. Commodore Cunningham passed on the information to the Associated Press reporter that it was a clear day and a Go to Eiseman's for SWEATERS For Dromt . . . for Sport . . . for Work.
