There is a bell, which has 7 feet high and 4 feet diameter, nearby the Clerk Building on campus of San Jose State University. One of alumnus, a prominent alchemist, Kevin White, donated it to SJSU in 1954. He asked administrators to ring the bell at midnight of 15th every month. He said as long as they ring the bell at the moment, school would be safe. Sound of the bell was a high tone and it lasted long. No one complained the sound even though it rung midnight.
School administrators assigned a role to ring the bell to students who lived in the dormitory.

Since he was busy to make a cheating sheet during the night, he forgot to ring the bell. There was nothing happened after that day until the next month of 15th. When another student ring the bell, sound of the bell changed to deeper and lower sound. Next morning, one of student found the student who forgot to ring the bell last month died on the bed.
