Hoover Wards Off 800
Callers; Mexico Is in
Midst of Revolution
-By ART SCHOENI
ThRESIDENT HOOVER is now cx
pcricndng trials similar to those
ot' a managing edWor pf a college
daily at the start of school.
After being duly5 installed in the
White House that has been Cool
idge’s for the past six years, the
high sachem sat down and started
to ward off job-hunters.
They came in hordes and droves,
his first-day visitors numbering 800.
Hoover took on the role of a har
vest hand in between his medita
tions about the evils of rebels and
-Mexican revolutions and mowed a
swath in the ranks of those who
wanted a “hand-out” job for the
votes they polled for liiyn last No
vember.
UN 8 ARE HOPPING again
from behind the Mexican cac
tus gardens. Revolts started the
first of *the month for t#ie under
stood purpose of unseating President
Portes Gil and putting in his rival
for the presidential job in the re
mit campaign, Gilberto Valenzuela,
ex-minister of Mexico to Great
Pritain.
'Idle rebels had the advantage of
surprise during the first part of the
uprising and raptured several strong
vantage cities, but with the arming
of government troops, the news col
umns are full of loyalist victories.
American interests in Mexieo
amounting to two billion dollars,
have nbt been touched by the revo
lutionaries, who are smart enough
to keep from roiling Uncle Sam,
who last mouth signed a pact to
abolish war.
THE WEDDING of Colonel
Olias. A. Lindbergh and his
fiancee, Miss Anne Morrow, who al
most got theirs in an airplane
wreck last week, will probably take
place in the next week, friends of
the pair having divulged that they
have received invitations to attend
the affair.
Probably no marriage iit recent
history has attracted the notice of
the world as the coming nuptials-of
the famed flier and his bride will
bring.
The plane wreck in which Lindy
injured his shoulder did not seem
to. daunt him or Miss Morrow very
much. Before many hours they
were flitting across tho sky again
one hand.
« ® *
TRUE TO HIS promise ill his in
augural speech, Hoover is-turn
ing his eyes toward a solution of
Die prohibition problem of the na
tion.
During his campaign, lie expressed
himself as favoring an investigation
with Lindy steering his plane with
into today’s burning opus entitled
“Why Americans Break Laws and
Drink Hootch.” When Senator
Harris of Georgia proposed spend
ing $24,000,000 to try to enforce
prohibition, Hoover took the stand
along with Treasury Keeper Mellon
that lie would liko to find out what
was the matter with the liquor aboi- j
ishment forces before spending mil- I
lions without knowing where it was j
going.
He will appoint a probing board
soon, says late press dispatches.

A Funny Little, Sunny-Tempered
Truck Comes Gathering-—Girls
By LOIS NELSON
A funny little truck, a sunnv-tem
pered one that doesn’t go very fast
\ or very slow, cftmes gathering at
the University of Oregon every day.
Its driver’s name is Sam Manerud,
but you always call him Sam be
| cause everyone else does. Sam stops
at a corner every day and rings a
funny little bell. The bell—it really
does sound like a eowbell—brings
forth, not laundry nor milk bottles,
but college women, trimly attired
in riding Jiajoits, who call “Hello
Sam—sorry I 'm late.” °
They hop in and perch themselves
on one of two little benches in the
“lumpity” little truck. When
enough habit-clad girls have piled
in, away goes Sam out to Bangs’
Riding academy, of which he is
owner, for the day’s classes.
Eighty-five university women are
signed up for horseback riding this
year, taking it for credit as their
physical education requirement.
This is, Sam declares, one of the
largest riding classes the university
has ever had, and to him it is a
demonstration that the popularity
of the sport is growing, rather than
languishing as it did from about
1910 to 1920. Worni n students ride
two hours an aftt n a each week,
making up the thir ' required hour
if physical educate . n some other
sport.
Sam Manerud, v.i has made his j
mine in Eugene for udv 30 years

icademy more than 1 wo, says that

“A girl who is a id and shows

fore and are nervous, but they just
smile and stick to it,” the veteran
rider related. “Sometimes they fall

injury any girl ever has had in this
group was a broken foot,” he con
tinued. “Biding horses makes good
sports out of people.”
Sam thinks, too, that riding is
one of the best recreations, because
it develops muscles Usually ncifl

the fresh air and the country and
get to see nature,” he added.
The owner hopes to build a riding

year “if things go right.”
This, he declared, will make pos

equestrian said. “But 1 just te
