Freshman Lets Loose Gas Attack in Matthews Room

A candidate for Harvard's funny mag, the Lampoon, nearly asphyxiated Yardlings in and around the north entry of Matthews Hall the other day when he opened a cylinder of chiorine gas and found himself unable to close it again.

Samuel T. Ansell '44 was presented with the has--tly container by a friend who found it outside the physics lab. Too curious to resist the temptation, the playful Freshman released the deadly gas in his room, but quickly threw the cylinder out of the window. Immediately, windows in nearby Straus Hall flew open and irate Yardlinge implored the Lampoon heeler to "cut it out."
