White Rats Mahe Darling Playmates; Declares Zoologist Want n new playmate?- A icuto white one with pink eyes, nose, feet, amt even a little pink tail? Pardon. A long, skinny one. The zoology research station has some very nice ones. White rats— and only a month old. They are .'is affpetionato and playful as kittens, as their proud owner, Birnet Ilovey, who has been doing tropism experi ments with them, gladly'explains, and in order to pirove it, he puts them through nil kinds of tricks. The little darlings have a sweet tooth and when a cube of moistened sugar is put on the top of their cage they display great aerobatic skill and climb to the top of the cage to eat the sugar. When one gets more to eat than the others fegl that he is entitled to, they pull him down by his tail. They are very dainty eaters, holding the food given them carefully in their front paws when nibbling. The rats are naturally very af fectionate and like to climb all over tlifir owner. A favorite habit of theirs is to lick his hand. Some persons may not care for this, but the rats are easily trained so the practice can probably be overcome. See Al’s Doom In Blockade of ‘Favorite Sons’ Bourbon Parly Split Over Candidates; Paper Line* up Forbodes Mtv United Pr#*«<8) WASHINGTON', I). C., Jan. 20.— The potential “favorite son” bloc in the Democratic, lineup has reached tho point where its combined strength probably is within nbout 10 votes of the one-third necessary to block A1 Smith. The governor’s fate would appear to depend chiefly upon whether a coalition of local candidates could lie welded into a batnllion of death ready to fight indefinitely. Several reasons / are offered against the possjbf ty of such a paper lineup really k Ring Smith off. One is that most leaf ?rs of the party are afraid of anothe factional fight like that) of 1024 Vvnd would be willing to see Smith nominated if ho gets considerably above a straight majority. " Another reason is that some of the favorite son candidates, like 1 'omereno of Ohio and Ritchie of Maryland, are for Smith if ’ they cannot win themselves. Smith un doubtedly will fall heir to a good many of these votes after the first few ballots. A third reason is the some of the favorite sons are se cretly prepared to accept the vice presidential nomination with Smith if they can get it. New Term Begins In Extension Classes The winter term of the Eugene Extension classes closed last week and the new term commences this week.

On Sodden Field Throe Lettermen Report; j Freshman Team Well Represented A score of lino-hion turned out on the sodden, sun bathed, practice field on the west side of the var sity stands yesterday where Coach John .T. McEwnn held football prac tice. 'Most, of tho men out were from the freshman team of last year. Har ry Wood, Tom Weems and Meryl I Hagen were the only lettermen to : report. Conch MeFwan after letting the ! men limber up began drilling them | on correct line positions, offense land defense. Form is what the foot j brill mentor is after now. He de sires to get players inured to the ! right and best positions and prac tice them ’till they become natural and habitual. A player must be on balance, be lieves the captain, so that ho is in position and able to go forward, to either side, or to the rear, without any useless and time wasting shift ing about, or with loss of power. Tho lineman’s offensive charge was demonstrated to tho men. The player charges forward in short, quick steps, head up and back straight. The group was then given individual attention ns they each practiced this charge. During the session McFwan lined the men up in line positions, then walked up and down correcting er rors and showing tho right way. Some of the lettermen demonstrated the work to the freshmen. Forest Conservation Discussed by Writers In Quarterly Review Forest conservation is the theme of the current issue of “The Com monwealth Review,” published quar terly by the schools of sociology and education, and the departments of economics, history, and political science of the University of Oregon. “At the Forest Cross Roads” is the title of an article by Thornton T. Hunger, director of the Pacific Northwest Forest Experiment Sta tion. Hr. Hunger points out the tremendous increase in lumber pro duction in Oregon in the last few years, and contends that it is the time for a universal policy of re forestation or forest farming in this state. “Sustained Yield and American Forest Problems” is the subject of an article by David T. Hason, a Portland forest engineer. Mr. Mason discusses the present yield of Ore gon forests and the changes in pro ductions that should be made to in sure a sustained yield from the for ests through future years. In the concluding article of the “Review,” Dr. F. G. Young, dean of the school of sociology and edi tor of the quarterly, discusses the best methods of utilizing to the fullest extent the resources of Ore gon. New Plan Proposed To Better Acoustics Of McArthur Court According to reports from Jack W. Benefiel, graduate manager of j the associated students, the pro | posed plan for bettering the aeou 1 sties of McArthur Court is to be 1 put before the administration as ! soon as possible. The plan is to use some kind of I material to absorb the sound of the j building. The most feasible plan, ! and the one which will bring by far the best results, seems to be the covering of the ceiling with burlap Last Times Today Buster Keaton in “COLLEGE” Matin©# Dally 2 p. m. On the Stage— “THE MYSTERIOUS THREE” Nightly at Nine Coming— “Sorrell & Son” One ot' the greatest stories of a Father and Son’s devotion ever filmed. A picture that all should see or some other material, according In Renefiel. Other possibilities include the ar ranging of curtains from tlio ceil ing to the bottom ef the balcony, cutting off most of the balcony, and padding the concrete wall in back of the balcony. If the whol? ceiling is covered it would lake a material with an absorbing power very near to that of burlap, but if heavier material is used, a little less than one-fourth of the ceiling would need to be covered, and would be put where it would be most convenient to do so. If this plan is to be adopted the building will be more suitable for both spepking and music, according to Beneficl. Lone Chance for Smith Is Appeal To High Courts Vare’s ‘Slush Fund’ Next In Line for Senate Probing Body (By United Press) WASHINGTON, I). C., .Tan. 20 — Appeal to the United States supreme court or re-election in Illinois ap peared the only courses left open to Frank L. Smith today in his fight for admission to the senate. Ills friends said they did not know what his next move would be. • A resolution by Senator Heed, Democrat, Missouri, chairman of the primary investigating commit tee, declaring Smith’s election taint ed with fraud and corruption and his seat therefore vacant was adopted late yesterday by a senate vote of Cl to 2.!i ; This overwhelming vote against seating Smith wi^s held by some ob servers as forecasting possible simi lar action against Senator-elect Wil liam Tare of Pennsylvania, whose ease will bo taken up next by the Heed investigating committee. There is a difference between the two cases, since Tare’s election was contested while Smith’s was not, but both men have found the temper of the senate against them and have been blamed for using large “slush funds.” House Presidents To Be Guests, of Dean Shirrell A dinner for all presidents of men’s fraternities will be given by Elmer L.
