Political Fog Lifts as State Poll Looms 3 Candidates Visit Campus Over Week-end; Neuiier Out Sportsmen Compose Large Voting Bloc By BOB ALLEN The campus was treated to a taste of state politics last week end with visits by three men, all mentioned prominently in the gub ernatorial race for primary nomin ations in May. Governor Norblad was in town to welcome Dr. Spears to the University and the state and to act as patron to the senior ball. Harry L. Corbett, one of Norblad’s rivals in the repub lican race, was also here, as was Charles Hall, a third republican contestant. From its original chaotic state, which came as the result of the death of Governor Patterson just at the time when murmurs of pos sible candidates were being heard and possible platforms being brewed, the situation in the state has cleared up, and political writ ers can see quite clearly what the issues are to be, and can. get some line on the candidates. As yet only one man, Edward F. Bailey has announced his candidacy on the democratic ticket, although Bert E. Haney, who has just re turned to Oregon, is expected soon to make known his intentions of running for the nomination. Drys Up in Air George Neuner, United States attorney, by withdrawing from the race has left a group of voters, the strong drys, up in the air as to which way their votes will go. A man' prominently mentioned by the extra drys is J. E. Bennett, but the members of the Anti-Sa lobn league do not seem anxious to swing in with a candidate who they fear is not likely to run bet ter than third. Apparently they want a winner, which forces them, if political dope can be relied upon, to make a choice among, Norblad, Corbett, Hall, and Bailey. Unquestionably, Norblad is in an advantageous position as gov ernor. Not only are his chances of lining up speaking engagements plentiful (he has already made over 200 during his brief period in office! but he can, if he wishes, play good politics with appoint ments, of which not a few come due between now and the May primaries. if isn xrouDies Loom Spoitsmen are hatching consid erable trouble in campaign circles, with their demands centering about the Rogue river, which they want closed to commercial fish ing. This situation will come to a head today when a retiring mem ber of the state game commission, C. E. Miller, withdraws from of fice, leaving an appointment to be made. It has been estimated that there are about 85,000 voting sportsmen in the state, which forms a considerable bloc for as piring candidates to seek. The question of reducing angling li censes is another issue that settles about the sportsmen, and causes considerable thinking among poli ticians. Kay Drops Out Thomas B. Kay, state treasurer, who was at first considered a probable candidate, later decided not to make a try for the state s highest office, and with his with drawal from the race left alsc many votes to be grabbed off bj those who aspire to the governoi job. But along with all the pettj squabbles, and accusations tha1 accompany the first months of £ campaign, the races are becoming organized, factions lined up, an( in a very few weeks sides will bt definitely established and the can didates will definitely get dowi to the business of seeking the elu sive vote of those who have no definitely made their decisions.

The classrooms scene fondly re minded us of Johnson hall, even the worshipping frosh and his green lid were there; only one thing lacking, we didn't see a sin gle fraternity scene. Winnie Lightner is her own clowning self in “She Couldn't Say No,” but the plot is just a trifle weak. However, Winnie is independent of plots, she’s her cwn show. “Sin Sisters,” “It’s a Great Life," ind “Paris,” are other worthwhile attractions.
