] and a really magnificent epic ol
the great pioneer movement to the
West, comes today to the McDon
- aid theatre for a three-day run.
Produced at great cost, and di
rected by Raoul Walsh, the film
paints the history of those days ol
the middle nineteenth century in
colors of gripping drama. Of epic
proportions is the long march of
the covered wagon train, all day
creaking along the grinding half
trail.
Ileilig Shows “Top Speed”
Today is the last opportunity to
see Joe E. Brown’s tuneful and
comic musicomedy, “Top Speed,”
playing at the Heilig theatre.
Brown has attained a reputation
for a laugh getter in his talkie car
! eer, and he carries it on in a cred
itable manner in this film. Its sup
porting cast has a great many
comedians of stage as well as cin
ema fame. The only comedy in
town today.
Chatterton and Brook at Colonial
Ruth Chatterton, leading dra
matic actress of the cinema since
the death of Jeanne Eagels, is ap
pearing with Clive Brook at the
Colonial today in “Anybody’s Wo
man.” This is the first time since
the “Laughing Lady,” that this pair
have teamed up. The plot of the
story is a highly polished treat
ment of situations and manners.

In Impromptu
Tea Hour
gon Daily Emerald of the Air”
program was relayed from the Col- j
lege Hide Inn radio parlors Sunday
night and, although impromptu in
nature, proved to be one of the
most popular of the Emerald
KORF hours yet broadcast this
i year.
Featured on this tea hour pres
entation was Henry Kaahea, Ha
waiian tenor, who sang a series
of six songs, including four request
numbers.
New talent predominated on the
[program. Art Compton, banjo,’
and Del Parks, trumpet, offered'
both solo arid duet numbers. Gor
don Fisher, “canary whistler,”
made his first appearance before
the microphone and will hold an
important place on coming broad
casts.
Vinton Hall, editor of the Em
erald, after numerous telephone
calls asking for “You Gotta Know
How to Love ’Em,” finally con
sented to favor tfye radio audience
with that selection as well as sev
eral other songs.
Hall anil Harney Miller, continu
ity editor, gave another one of
their modern bedtime stories. Sun
day night found the tale of "Cin
derella” cleverly related by the
pair. The boys also took the parts
of Knute Rookne, Pop Warner and
other famous football coaches and,
after putting their heads together,
they picked the All-American foot
ball team which, by the way, re
sulted in the entire Oregon line

Gift Sale Will Aid
Scholarship Fund
For Coining Year
More Loans of Small Sums
Anticipated by Local
A.A.U.W. Chapter
The local scholarship loan fund
of the Eugene chapter of the
American Association of Univer
sity Women will receive a percent
age of the profits of the fourth an
nual gift sale sponsored by this or
ganization at the Oriental Art
shop owned by Mrs. Ruth B. Whee
ler in the Eugene hotel, December
4, 5, and 6.
More calls for loans this year
are anticipated by Mrs. F. L.
Chamber, in charge of the sale.
Fifty dollars is the largest sum
loaned, and amounts as small as
$10 are borrowed by students who
need just this much to tide over
a crucial point. There is no inter
est on these loans, which are only
temporary and are usually return
ed within a year.
This fund started almost at the
beginning of the organization of
the Eugene A. A. U. W. in 1912. A
few dollars were loaned each yeat
to worthy college students. In
1915 a definite sum, 10 per cent of
the national dues was added each
year until 1923, when a permanent
local scholarship fund was definite
ly set aside. The amount at the
time was $110 and at the end of
last May $427 was in the fund.
Last year six students were bene
fitting from the loans. The first
year the proceeds of the sale went
towards a $1000 art museum fund.
Students often visit the shop to
purchase gifts for relatives and
friends. Mrs. Chambers told of a
list of inexpensive articles includ
ing pottery, glass, stationery, port
folios and pictures, carved wood
and wrought iron articles, thing
to wear, scarfs, jewelry, that
might be found at the shop.

"Buy INow” Slogan May Work
Worse Hardship in Future
Rotter To Prolong Buying
Period, Says Professor
Daniel G. Gage
With the Christmas shopping
season fast approaching, the advis
r ability of following the slogans of
"buy now,” "buy more," "buy to
day,” is a grave one, according to
Prof. Daniel D, Gage Jr., of tho
school of business administration
In the past, he says, the stop and
start movements of purchasing
have been called business cycles,
i which are nothing more or less
' than alternate periods of business
activity and business depression,
i To start a “buy now” movement,
j just before the Christmas holidays,
would be to give a false stimulus
to a normally large buying season,
the reaction that threatens to
cause a sudden tightening of the
purse strings after the holidays
that would more than offset the
present temporary good achieved.
It would probably be far better,
he stated, to prolong the Christ
mas buying season over a period
of time, thus keeping the ball roll
ing with a cumulative effect that
would stimulate a later sales and
thus have the entire business-trend
profit by a momentum of steady
improvement. To "buy now” with
every ounce of reserve strength
would only call for a period of rig
id economy after the New Year
that would bring the business
movement to a halt, only to be re
vived at a later date with a great
er expenditure of effort and a
greater economic waste.
The solution of the present busi
ness depression lies in the gradual
and steady, not stop and start,
business movement, which might

The new G-E low-grid-current PUotron tube capable
of measuring a current as small as JO*17 ampere
This Little Tube Measures Stars
Centuries of Light Years Distant
6"7)Y MEANS of a new vacuum tube called a low-grid-current
©*-' Pliotron tube, astronomers can gather the facts of stellar news
with greater speed and accuracy. In conjunction with a photoelectric
tube, it will help render information on the amount of light radia
tion and position of stars centuries of light years away. It is further
applicable to such laboratory uses as demand the most delicate
measurement of electric current.
So sensitive is this tube, that it can measure 0.000,000,000,000,000,01
of an ampere, or, one-hundredth of a millionth of a billionth of an
ampere. This amount of current, compared with that of a 50-watt
incandescent lamp, is as two drops of water compared with the entire
volume of water spilled over Niagara Falls in a year.
General Electric leadership in the development of vacuum tubes has
largely been maintained by college-trained men, just as college-trained
men are largely responsible for the impressive progress made by General
Electric in other fields of research and engineering.
