WHAT SHOW TONIGHT? McDonald — Ronald "Colman in “Raffles.” Colonial—“White Cargo.” State—Richard Dix in “Lov in’ the Ladies.” Heilig—Belle Bennett in "Re captured Love.” “White Cargo” Plays Here Heat, temptations, monotony find damp rot slowly but surely un dermine the moral fibre of white men in the tropics, and thus forms a plot for the dramatic “White Cargo,” which starts a four day run at the Colonial today. The picture is a worthy succes sor to the stage play, an excellent effort enacted by a meritorious cast. At least one of the love scenes is frankly torrid, but there is no smirking at sex. Tt is a ter rific story of white men in the tropics and barbaric passions of the native girl, Tondelayo. Colman In Crook Role Ronald Colman as the most fam ous of all gentleman crooks, “Raf fles,” cavorts at his adventurous ' best in a picture now on view at the McDonald theatre. Raffles is Colman’s third successful criminal talking film. “Bulldog Drum mond” revealed Colman in pursuit of criminals. The second, “Con demned,” showed him as a convict held'-in the tropic fastnesses of Devil's Island. ’“Raffles,” the third, shows him as the amateur crimin I al, desperately trying to elude the law. Resides Colman, Kay Francis and David Torrence (who was the doughty banker in “Disraeli”) are in the cast. Belle Bennett Plays Mother Belle Bennett, featured in War ner Brothers production, “Recap tured Love,” which is playing to day at the Heilig, is again seen in the role for which she is famous, that of a mother, but this time a gay young mother who enlists the ] aid of her son to cleverly win '• back her philandering husband. John Halliday and Junior Durkin. Broadway stage stars, are the supports. High Society Blue Note Richard Dix, in the role of an electrician who masquerades in high society, comes to the State today in "Lovin' the Ladies.” In stead of the traditional heroine, Dix is involved with four women. They are Lois Wilson, Rita LaRoy, Renee MacReady, and Virginina Sale, a sister of chic. The picture j is supposed to be “philosophical and farcical in nature.” ♦ SOCIETY ♦ By CAROL HURLBURT Mr. and Mrs. Lindsay Honored at Reception The annual faculty reception will take place tonight at Gerlin ger hall, where President and Mrs. Arnold Bennett Hall will he at home, honoring Mr. and Mrs. E.

It. Douglass, University librarian. Congestion in Condon was the rea son for the transfer. It was re ported by Mr. Douglass that stu dents were unable to find seats on certain nights. As the top floor of the main library was not In heavy use he decided to make this change. If this does not relieve the condition, more books will be transferred in the future. PLEDGING ANNOUNCEMENT Sigma Alpha Epsilon announces the pledging of Kelt on Strader of Eugene. Rhodes Scholar Describes England Students Will Find Alfons Kora, Oregon Rhodes scholar in 1927, was cornered in the College Side last night and ( asked for his views on the 1931 Rhodes scholars’ possibilities and opportunities, and also for some j of his own observations on Oxford, possible future alma mater of two of the four Oregon boys chosen by the committee yesterday after noon. He responded capably. It was a distinct disappointment that he had no accent. The purpose of the Pdiodes scholarship awards is to bring to England and to Oxford university i i 1 ■ the best type of students from ev ery part of the English speaking world. It was a dream of Cecil Gordon Rhodes, British explorer and engineer, that Oxford grad- 1 uates should carry English culture to all parts of the globe. He left a huge sum of money in trust to carry out this wish. Mr. Korn took his B. A. (Oxon) last July, after three years of in tensive reading for honors in 10th century literature, and was award ed his degree from Christ’s Church college after a six-day examina-; tion covering every phase of the j Ihree year's work. “I found the English to be gen- I ----—I - EMERALD CHIPS ♦ _— Friedman in Portland— Dr. Leo Friedman, of the Uni versity of Oregon department of chemistry, drove to Portland last Saturday to attend the meeting of the Pacific coast section of the Technical association of the Pulp and Paper Industries.

Sports ire-traditional, and every English ad who'c.omes up from Eton, Har ow or Rugby, vyhich, by the way, ire not public schools, whatever ;lse may be said of them—every English lad must take part in some form of conventional British sport, rycling and walking through the cvely Oxford countryside. "I, myself, traveled afoot a great leal to escape the atmosphere of ntense concentration and ordered, nolded learning which at first I found most hard to adjust to my American attitude. "The individual colleges are -vailed, and have two, or in some instances, only one gate. They are almost completely shut off from the wild rush of Oxford city life. In the streets one frequently sees e> gigantic red bus against the background of a Woolworth store, and just to one side, an ancient and mellowed Gothic spire rising above the ugly shops and gro tesque modern business places. “Over in Cowley village, the name of a section of the town has clung through centuries of change, I he largest motor works in the na tion, the Morris-Cowley people, is located. "While the town itself is manu facturing, the surrounding country is decidedly not. Sutton-Courtney is typical. But a few miles from Oxford, it presents the same front as it did in the early 16th century, when Alexander Pope lived there. The small stone houses have thatched roofs, and line narrow winding roads which serve as streets. The ends of the streets and the beginning of the fields is indicated by a heap of refuse. The landscape is totally differ ent from that of the Northwest. There the people are in a large sense part of the land. No vista can be found without either Rom an ruins and Roman influence, Saxon hovels and walls, romantic Norman structures, churches, mon asteries, or later modern habita tions and developments. No view (1 English countryside can be had without some thought of the peo ple who made it what it is. The country has been lived in!” Of the university itself I«Ir. Korn said, "During term-time all stu dents must be in the college at night. The student attends lec tures in certain colleges, but that is the only requirement. There is no credit system, no course which A pipeful of good tobacco is the real smoke TODAY, tomorrow, all the rest of your life, you can en joy and keep on enjoying good tobacco in a good pipe. “How can I pick a good pipe, and how can I tell good tobacco? ” you may ask. Who but you could answer? You'll know your own good pipe when you bite down on it. Edgeworth may be the tobacco you’re looking for. It has the dis tinctive flavor that men like, the slow-burning coolness; and it is rich with the aroma of fine old burley blended just right. A pipe ful of Edgeworth is the real smoke. Why not try Edgeworth? You can buy it anywhere in the 15e tin—or, if you wish, write for a generous sample packet — free. Address; Larus 6& Bro. Co., 105 S. 22d St., Richmond, Va.

One is said to be ( reading for a degree, no ‘majoring j in Litt.’ or whatever else. “Cambridge and Oxford stu- ' dents do not work while attending the university, regardless of the custom in other schools of Eng land, Scotland, or the continent. At Manchester there are doubtless many who do work part time, and at Paris most of the students with whom I talked did work . while studying. But the Oxford tradi tion and the Oxford honours read ing system did not allow that sort of thing. “Vacation travel on the conti nent is general. I spent two of the long summer vacations in Ger many, one winter vacation in Ita ly, and a considerable amount of time in France. Knowledge of French and German is almost es sential to an American student abroad, and now that the third year of the Rhodes scholarship may be taken on the continent, this holds true in a more practical way. “Economic England ? One soon forget.s the horrible sights of club footed children and starving mass es. The social system is so vigor ous and the barriers so great that any who are born in the factory classes soon forget their longings to rise above the station to which , they were born. Generations of undernourishment have bred the masses to a stoic endurance of want and hunger. “Before the American has been ! long at Oxford, he can go down by the ‘Gas Works,’ which represents EAT AT THE Green Lantern T avern The Home of Hospitality the same things there that it does here, travel through the slum dis tricts, with its streets littered with cabbage leaves, old bits of paper blowing about, stockingless chil dren playing in the filth, he can view all that without shock and repulsion, because he has begun to feel that it has been so for gen erations.” Alfons Korn saghed heartily, and i crushed out the ’steenth cigarette. He rose, taking several yellowed tomes under his arm. Then on top of these he placed a brilliantly cov ered novel. “Well,” he remarked, “I’ll have to leave’. I've a bit of reading to do tonight.” So he left, to do his studying. "Eugene's Own Store McMorran & Washburne PHONE 2700 Going to the Football Game?
