Are College Kids Rude? No, Only in A Hurry, Is Claim Are college students discourteous 01 are they hurried along at such a tor rifie rate they have no time to he po lite? Professor John Galen Howard, a mem ber of the faculty at the University of California declares that scrambling books to getlier ten minutes before the hour may show a lack of politeness, but in reality it is only the resistless hurry of the day and not intentional rudeness. Good manners are not decreasing among the students according to Professor How ard. In the great number of students enrolled in our modern universities he acknowledges that there always a few roughnecks but only a few can be termed absolutely raw. A native of France who is serving on the faculty of University of California when asked if he thought the students were polite mused a moment and replied that' he believed that they could be very much more so. COLONEL LEADER NOW HANDLES HOCKEY TEAM Co-Eds Show Enthusiasm Over Game and Coach Decides to Play Tomorrow “The greatest thing since Gettys burg,” was the way Colonel John Lead er expressed his opinion of the junior freshman hockey game waging fiercely on Cemetery ridge last night. “This reminds me of a trench raid,” said the Colonel, as he watched the squabbles over the “putt” and heard the crack of the sticks. Colonel Leader is the new hockey coach. Last night as the players sauntered off the field with a few bruised arms and fingers, enthusi asm was rampant over the game and the new- coach. Such orders as “Drib ble that ball!” “to the wing,” “now center,” and “you’re a dear wing,” brought eneourageing results. The Colonel did not play today but he will have his stick on the “putt” to morrow to give the team a good run. This hockey stuff, it is reported, has dieting “skinned all hollow” and makes one feel more like eating than ever. AT THE THEATRES Opening with two greatly differing types of stories, the photoplay pro grams at the Rex and Castle theatres are unusually attractive this week. Dorothy Dalton in “The Siren Call,” a fervid romance of Alaska during the gold rush days, is the featured offering for three days, starting Monday, at the Rex. In addition to the main picture,1 the organ concert by Charles W. Haw ley, Rex Wurlitzer artist, contains a: group of three numbers, Rachmaninoff ’« “Prelude in C sharp minor,” “My Old Kentucky Home” as a special request number, and selections from “Chu Chin Chow.” As a Rex specialty, Delmar “Dizzy” Imper will be heard in saxo phone solos. The Castle presentations starting j Monday for two days, offer Lon Chaney arid a star east in “Flesh and Blood”; which is credited with being even su perior to that stellar star ’s character-J ization in “The Penalty,” and as an atmospheric prelude, John R. Britz and his Castle orchestra will render “Love’s Old Sweet Song,” presenting Mr. Britz as a solo violinist. An event to be anticipated is the Y. M.-Y. }V. mix to be held next Friday evening in the Armory. The affair, which is annual, will this year be in the nature of a county fair. Side-shows, concessions and food will be the fea tures, as well as some clever stunts. <4# Wringer-dry without a wringer! ANY good washing machine today can be re'.ied upon to do the wash ing—but the Laun-Dry-Ette is the only machine that does the drying too. The Laun-Dry-Ette has no wringer. It whirls the clothes dry for the line—ar.d it whirls them dry a tubful at a time. Doesn't smash buttons—Doesn’t bend hooks and eyes—No red hands. Let us give you a demonstration.
