Rex Has Love Trap
For Last Time Today
Laura La Plante will be seen
today for the last time in "The
Love Trap," her latest starring
vehicle in the role of a woman who
by determination alone saves her
reputation and the love of her hus
band.
Movietone Follies
Leaves State Today
The "Follies of 1929” will play
its last day at the State today and
will be followed by "Two Lovers,”
the latest co-starring attraction
of Vilma Banky and Ronald
Coleman. This is the last picture
of this famous team, as each has
reached the point of being a star
in his own right.
McDonald Picture
Has Humorous Plot
Lilting melodies and snappy
dancing have made the rollicking
comedy, “Twin Beds,” even more
of a success on the screen than it
was as a stage play. Jack Mulhall
sings the theme song which has
been labelled “If You Were Mine,”
and Patsy Ruth Miller plays the
part of his bride with great gusto.
The plot, that of a newly married
couple separated on their wedding
night, affords a great deal of
hilarious comedy.
Rod Im Roque Stars
In Hold ’Em Yale
Breathing the very spirit of
undergraduate life, football, box
ing, student activities of every de
scription, “Hold 'Em Yale” comes
to the Colonial theatre today with
the dark, romantic Rod La Rocque
tearing his way to victory for his
alma mater.
It abounds in action, life, ro
mance, color, and reveals the actu
al heart of the modern American
campus and the typical college
hero.
Senior Kid Party
! To be Postponed
Till Winter Term
Initial Meeting of Class
Held in Villard
'f Assembly
The annual senior “kid” party,
usually held during the fall term,
will be postponed until winter, it
was decided at a meeting of the
senior class in the assembly room
of Villard hall yesterday after
noon.
The difficulty of finding a date
in the crowded fall social calendar
was the cause of moving the event,
to which the guests come clad in
juvenile costume, ahead to the
winter term. The date of the par
ty will be announced later. The
senior formal ball will also be held
during winter term, and senior
leap week is set for spring term.
The treasurer’s report stated
that there is on hand in the class
treasury, more than $600, and
that this sum does not include
the tax, which is collected by the
university in the registration fees,
and which has not yet been turned
over to the class.
About a hundred seniors attend
ed the meeting, which was presid
ed over by Eleanor Poorman, vice
president, in the absence of Carl
Nelson, president.
DR. BARNES TELLS
OF MUSEUM WORK
(Continued from rage One)
that I should study these two men
and not Pelham, but you see, the j
papers of Pelham were most all j
lost or destroyed. The Duke of
Newcastle and Lord Hardwicke,
together with Pelham practically
ran the British government from
1745 to 1754. Pelham was prime J
minister. They carried on a pro
digious correspondence and kept
' most all the letters sent out and
those receiveed. Thus it is easy
to get the material on Pelham.
They had several secretaries who
wrote in a beautiful hand, I should
say, that is like the business col
leges try to teach this Spencerian
script, you know. Newcastle was
spasmodic, though at times he
wrote very well, but when he was
peeved he was practically unread
able, and he was peeved most of
the time.”
It was an unusually severe and
cold winter in 1928, and Dr.
Barnes said by March he was
rather tired out by his concentra
k
tion and took a nine weeks vaca
tion on the continent, mostly in
southern France and Italy. The
remembrance of charms of a lit
tle village, called Mentone, on the
Mediterranean, almost sent him
into ecstasy.
“The air,” he sighed, “the blue
sky, the sun; Mrs. Barnes and I
stretched out on the beach and
absorbed little violet rays all day
long. The people are so kindly;
and made one feel so at home,
they are cheerful and bubbling
with the joy of life. It makes you
want to stand up and shout for
joy, and most likely the people will
join in with you, so different from
London where you would be ar
rested for disturbing the peace,
you’dmow.”
Dr. Barnes had not been there
since 1922, during the post war
depression, and he noted a vast
improvement since then. Amazing
strides have been taken in nearly
all directions. The greatsCt change
he noticed in Italy was the fact
that nearly all the beggars have
been run out.
“Quite different from London,”
he said, waving a small sharp
knife around in a preoccupied
manner; he had been playing with
it all the time and it kept me on
the edge of the chair worrying
about it.
“London,” he continued is in
fested with them. They draw pic
tures on the side walks and beg
you for money for looking at their
works of art. I heard rumors that
they no longer are independent
concerns but have been syndicat
ed, and one man makes the rounds
drawing all the pictures, then they
hire fellows to sit with them and
look mournful and hold out a hat.
Most of them claim to be ex-ser
vice men, but few of them are
about 21 or 22, so it’s quite amus
ing.
"Another form of begging is to
sell matches. But just try and
get the matches after you think
you have purchased them, why in
their eyes it amounts almost to a
crime.”

SENIOR OF OREGON
TRIES CHICAGO SLUMS

the employees were swollen to the
albows.” The wages for her nine
and a half to ten hours labor were
about five dollars a week.
“The room in which I stayed,”
she went on, “was about five by
seven and reminded one of a cell.
It contained a very narrow cot and
a locker the size of those used at
the gym in which to keep all of
my clothes. There was one dingy
little window opening out on a
court where garbage cans were
kept.” Miss Edmunson stated
that sanitary conditions in general
were very bad.
“Of course,” she said, “we could
not tell anyone that we were stu
dents or everything would have
been spoiled. One of the most fre
uent questions was 'What nation
ality are you?’—something else
which we could not tell. One time
we counted the different national
ities which were represented at the
table where we worked and there
were seven. Another question fre
quently asked was ‘are you mar
ried?’ and the main topic of con
versation was the latest boy
fridnd.”
Miss Edmunson was able to ac
tually see severally very interest
ing events, one of which was a
Salted Nuts
That are toasted—Fresh
and Crisp. Are they
good? Well, you be the
judge. There are Pecans,
Almonds, Pignolias, Pis

* communist riot, when the people
were “just like a herd of cattle."
Another was a newspaper strike.
A dope raid was also staged in a
nearby hotel. It was found that
a system of bells had been worked
out in the rooms whereby the oc
cupants could be warned and es
cape by means of a trap door.
"The first week seemed like an
adventure,” Miss Edmunson de
clared but after that it was drudg
ery. Many of the girls working
in the factories get married to
escape working but after they are
married they find that they must
continue to work. Many of them
are also carrying a great deal of
responsibility. One who made
forty dollars a month was obligat
ed to send thirty of it home. As
her room cost one dollar a week
and her board four it was impossi
ble for her to make ends meet. It
is very hard for a girl to live un
der the conditions which are pres
ent and on the amount of money
she earns.”
The college women who were
living in Chicago met twice each
week to discuss problems and to
hear lectures. Miss Edmunson af
firmed that Chicago girls who
knew of the students said: “We
don't expect you to go out and
revolutionize the world but this
will help you to make yourself a
better person in your profession.”
Those people who are more fortu
nate than those who live in the
slums may help them by buying
union made articles and by legis
lation.
Miss Edmunson says that she
would like to go back again next
year but different people are chos
en by the Y. W. C. A. each sum

FAMILIAR STUNT

mony in conveying to Beverley the
information that he was to run
the gauntlet, which, otherwise
stated, meant that the Indians
would form themselves in two par
allel lines facing each other about
six feet apart, and that the pris
oner would be expected to run
down the length of the space be
tween, thus affording the warriors
an opportunity, greatly- coveted
and relished by their fiendish na
tures, to beat him cruelly during
his flight.
This sort of thing was to the
Indians, indeed, and' exquisite
amusement, as fascinating to them
as the theatre is to the more en
lightened people. No sooner was
it agreed upon that the entertain
ment should again be undertaken
than all the younger men began
to scurry around getting every
ing ready for it. Their faces glow
ed with a droll cruelty strange to
see, and they further expressed
their lively expectations by play
ful yet curiously solemn antics.
‘‘The preparations were simple
and quickly made. Each man
armed himself with a stick three
feet long and about three-quarters
of an inch in diameter. Rough
weapons they were, cut from
boughs of scrub-oak, knotty and
tough as horn. Long-Hair un

After The Movies....
Don’t forget your girl will expect more than just a movie/
no matter how enjoyable it was—in fact she will want
something to eat, and more than that she will want it at a
place that caters to those particular collegiate tastes.
So we’d suggest the Peter Pan after the movies for a foun

impression on her!
