Ever since it was forced to accept the chandeliers, which a sister House had refused, Eliot House has harbored a certain sense of inferiority. Witness the incident of a notice posted day before yesterday, announcing a lecture by Professor "Karl" Schumpeter.

Chancellor Dollfuss ignored Vice Chancellor Fey's doings but bristled up in Geneva when Austria's Habsburg pretender, handsome 20-year-old Archduke Otto, son of the late Austrian Emperor Karl, made a bid for restoration.
