Battle Cruisers Versus
Planes? Car Ban too
Strong for Mieliigan
—- By A. L. S.
Goolidge’s wislios regarding 111o
cruiser Mil before "ongress fonn 1 fd
for naught Monday and Hip sennfo
voteil 54 to 28 against the proposal
to eliminate the time clause from
the ship bill.
In so many words, Hip timp clause
says that those ships must be built
starting at a certain time. Without
the rule, the presidtnt could set the
time whenever he thought the na
tion's pocket book and naval needs
coincided.
With I he $275,000,000 necessary
to build the 15 cruisers and the air
plane carrier a fleet of bombing
and attack planes could be built
which would have little trouble de
molishing any navy in the world,
pay aviation fans. And the funny
part is they’re probably right.
Mark Twain could find an answer
to his satiric comment that “every
body talks about the weather, but
nobody does anything about it,” in
the American public's attitude to
ward aviation as a war weapon.
They all agree that airplanes
would be fine tilings to send out. oa
raids over the enemy’s camp and
then spend about $2.50 per capita
for cruisers.
Any aviator will bet. his winter
“bennies” that planes will win the
next war and any sailor wjll bet.
his uext-to-the-last dollar on the
navy. All they need now is a war
to decide which is the liar.
Lo, the poor Indian (his name in
this case is Jackson Barnett) told
senators of Hie United States the
other day that a white woman had
married him for his money made in
oil in spite of his protests and un
willing mental attitude.
His ideas of the value of money
were scarcer than Scotch (teals, lie
gave $550,000 away to a church,
couldn’t recognize his own picture
•—and in general, hardly knew what
it was all about. And to think
people with more brains than he has
are poor!

Because he made enemies by be
ing an exponent of birth control and
eugenics and because the students
with cars disliked his banning autos
from the campus, Or. Clarence O.
Little, president of the University
of Michigan, resigned his position
recently.
He saw incipient snobbishness in
students who owned autos, so he
banned them. He thought all stu
dents should be housed on the cam
pus, so he planned a huge women’s
dormitory for next year as a move
in that direction, lie heard Michi
gan slurred because of student
drinking, so he invited federal pro
hibition agents to police the campus
and investigate, 'flic regents and
other interested parties rose up
against him and now lie’s out. of a
job for the first time since he grad
uated from Harvard.
The whole affair smacks of poli
tics and more politics, like the Suz
zalo incident at Washington.

The press and politics arc hobnob
bing again. Over in France, hints
and rumors are flying around and

viki” seen in the scandal of the
Gazette dn France, but it looks like
the same old story.
Some judge told court secrets
about the trial of a woman and the
newspaper printed them, along with
supplied pictures and laudatory biog
raphies of the judge. As it turned
out, this woman, Mine. Hanau, was a
money baroness and used the G.i
^ zette, along with three other papers,
to put across her financial publicity,
a recognized source of income for
French papers which is a betrayal
of trust in American newspapers’
eyes.

prime minister of Great Britain,
says, “It is imperative that steps be
taken at once to end all this foolish

Budget Submitted
The submitted budget included a

satisfactory working margin to in

Although expenses have been held

Glee Marks Infirmary Patients When
Subject of Gift Radio is Broached
Nurses and Inmates Register Joy on Hearing
Shine Day Money Will Be Used to Buy Set
Cautiously (’moping up to thn
door of ttio infirmary, T shouted,
“HowM you liko to lmvo a radio?”
1 duck fit fast, tint T was caught.
Beaming, smiling, grinning from
olieok to check, they showered me
with questions. "When?” ‘‘How.’”
“Honest, are they going to get ns a
radio?” “Oh, gee, do you suppose
we could get hack our Ozarka?” “1
sure hope they get enough shoes to
shine!”
These queries came from Miss
Oolohan, the genial head nurse of
the university, from her assistant,
and from the patients. The infirm
ary is most certainly in favor of
having the funds of junior shine day
turned over to them for their radio.
“Why,” she said, “I should say
we do need a radio. They took away
the one we had. It was an Ozarka,
and it sure was good. Nights when
there were games, we’d listen to the
reports, and then there'll lie music
ami lectures, and plays, ll helped
to keep everybody in bid and quiet,
and then it was an enjoyment for
ns, too, von know.”
Sho seemed worried over tlio
amount of shoos Mint would nood
shining on ‘‘Shine Day.” “Von
know,” sho said, “I’ve boon tolling
everybody T see lo bo sure and stop
and have their shoes shined on that
day. 1 oven told t tic butobor, to
day.”
Sho continued, “And say, if we
don’t gel a radio this lime we’ll
sure bo disappointed. I ’vc been
calling the stores and having thefn
sent out, but I’ve fell too cheap to
do that lately.”
Fooling satisfied, I turned to go,
when 1 was called back, by Miss
Colohan. “Hero, Bob,” she smiled,
“is a nice rod apple. Now go back
and write us a fine story, so lots of
people will have their shoos shined,
and wo can have our radio.”

Students to Hear
South American
Talk at Assembly
Tomlinson Will Describe
Ten Republics Socially,
Politically, Economically
Edward Tomlinson, writer, travel
er, and lecturer, will bo the speaker
at the assembly Thursday morning
at II o’clock in the Woman's build
ing. During the past five years
lie has spent a great deal of linie
studying political and social con
ditions in South America, and has
analyzed some of the delicate an
gles on tin- problem of international
relations between North and South
America.
South America is not merely a
land of wild Indians, head hunters,
and revolutions, Mr. Tomlinson dis
covered on his trip. The wild In
dians were found in the remote
fastness of tlie Amazon jungle; head
hunters have joined the dodo, and
revolutions arc over emphasized.
Shows Great Development
It is a land of broad and fertile
plains and plateaus, great cities,
limitless resources, many and
varied races of people, and art and
culture and progressive develop
ments, Air. Tomlinson reported on
his return.
Mr. Tomlinson, is very enthusiastic
about the ten republics of South
America and will tell the univer
sity students of them during his lec
ture. One of these countries has
more sheep, and exports more wheat
than the United States; he reports
another possesses half of the world’s
supply of tin; and stifi another is
able to supply the world with three
fourths of its coffee. Another thing
which causes him to revere South
[America is that the oldest university
| in the world is there, the finest
| school of art and the most preten
jtious opera house.
Mr. Tomlinson was born in the
South and fought in the World war.
Later he was sent to the British
armies to explain America to the
soldiers of the empire. He was edu
cated in this country and later
studied at the University of Edin
burgh, Scotland.
Rev. E. V. Stivers, pastor of the
Christian church, will give the in
vocation. The university band will
play three short selections before
the speaker is introduced.
remain for the Webfoots to prove
that they wore hopelessly oft' form
when they lost four straight tilts on
tlio northern road trip.
The outset of last night’s contest
had all the possibilities of a close
battle with either team a probable
victor. The Wen
foots were hitting
h li p basket, fre
quently, but. for
every Oregon score
the Grizzlies hail
one to match it.
The playing of
both tealns was so
clone during the
first minutes that
the lead changed
~ six limps.
Dave Epps Scott Milligan
put Oregon ahead at the start with
a short shot from under the basket,
and immediately following, Ed
Chinske, Montana forward and cap
tain, was awarded two free throws
and converted them both. A few
seconds later Chinske dropped in a
long, looping shot, from the side
linos. Jean Eberhnrt, sophomore
center, tied the score again, and then
Hidings gave Oregon a two point
lend. ’
The lead was tossed back and
forth until, with Montana ahead, 11
to 10, Cordon Hidings passed through
the Grizzly defense to score six
points in rapid succession. From
then on the Ori/.zlies hardly ever
came close, and the AVebfoots lead
19 to 11 at the end of the first half.
Webfoots Pile Up Lead
First Horner, then Hidings, then
Eberhnrt, then Milligan and Epps,
and the Webfoots increased their
lead in the second half to 95 points
before the northerners had fairly
started. The contest became so ono
sided that the Montana players be
gan to wonder if their victory in
the north wore more than a dream.
But it; was far from a dream, and
the blot, 29 to 28, still stands at
Missoula as a defeat for Oregon.
I Jean Eberliart, Cliff Horner, and
Harold Olinger, coming in later on
in tho game, proved the unprecedent
ed brilliance of the sophomore com
bination in the Beaver game was
something more than a mere surprise
Eberhnrt, with his long reach and
accurate eye, was second only to
Gordon Hidings for scoring honors
on the Oregon team. For the first,
time since the days of Hoy Oker
berg, the Webfoots have a center
who can get the tip-off. The play
ing of the Wehfoot team as its of
fense charged unfalteringly under
the Montana basket clearly proved
the value of the tip-off.
Montana Tries Long Shots
The fast floor work and close
checking of Cliff Horner was one of
the outstanding points in Oregon's
victory. For every time he was
‘din ved off his feet by the towering
Grizzlies, Horner was lip and play
ing harder and better than ever.
Long shots and lots of them were
the main forts of the Montana team
last night. After the whirlwind
stnrt at the first of the game, the
Grizzlies were unable to break
through the Oregon defense to score
on close-in shots. The northerners
were forced to resort to mid-floor
shots, but comparatively few of
them went into the basket.
Ed Chinske, star of the Montana
team, was peculiarly elusive even in
defeat. The Webfoots could scarce
ly touch him as he dribbled down the
floor to drop in some sensational
long shots. He alone, with 11 points,
