cently returned to film making. It
is a picture much better than the
ordinary one that deals with this
famous army of renegades.
“Whoopee” Held Over
“Whoopee,” the extravagant
technicolor musicomedy playing at
the Colonial, has been held over
for a fifth and final day.
The film is one of the outstand
ing pictures of the year, and has
been a great favorite wherever it
has played. Presented on the Co
lonial's new Magnascope, it has
won high praise.
Western at Heilig
Dorothy Kevier and Matt Moore
are playing at the Heilig today in
“Call of the West,” one of the new
and improved western films. An
exciting tale of the great outdoors,
some of the finest exterior photog
raphy seen at this theatre for
some time, combine with fast,
tense action in making an all round
good show.
Locales are pleasantly contrast
ed between the great outdoors and
the “gay white way.”
Sea Story at State
“Ship From Shanghai,” one of
the tense, dramatic sea stories so
improved by the introduction of
sound, is playing at the State thea
tre today. The film is a dramatic
narrative of the life on board ship,
and has some terrifically dramatic
moments. Well worth seeing if you
like sea stories.

YWCA President
Will Read Paper
At National Meet
Daphne Hughes To Attend
Conference in Detroit
Last of Montli
Daphne Hughes, national Y. W.
C. A. president and student at the
University, will attend the na
tional faculty-student conference
in Detroit, December 28 to Janu
ary 1. The purpose of the con
vention, sponsored by the Council
of Christian Associations, which
is the combined representatives of
Y. W. C. A. and Y. M. C. A., is
to discuss the coming changes in
America’s educational system, and
to improve cooperation between
students and faculty.
Miss Hughes will read a paper
on “Activities and the Fraternity
System,” preparatory to an all
morning discussion of that topic.
“Very few representatives from
the Northwest will attend,” stated
Miss Hughes. “More from the
East and Middle West, where peo
ple are more conscious of campus
problems, will attend. Approxi
mately 1T>00 people are expected,
about 750 each of students and
faculty members.”
Drama Reading
Planned Tonight
Mrs. Seybolt To Present
‘Green Pastures’
Tonight a dramatic reading of
“The Green Pastures,” will be giv
en by Mrs. Ottilie Turnbull Seybolt
at the Guild theatre at 8 o’clock.
The play won the 1930 Pulitzer
prize, and has created quite a sen
sation during its long run on
Broadway. One of its unique fea
tures is an entire negro cast.
It is the story of creation simply
interpreted from the Bible, told
humorously, but with a deep, re
ligious experience behind it, in
spite of the fact that even God
himself uses the negro dialect as
spoken in Harlem.
Mrs. Seybolt attributes its wide
appeal to the human sympathy ex
pressed. Every character is natur
al and familiar: Because of its re
ligious message the play was cho
sen as a Christmas program.
There will be no admission
charge.
YW To Entertain

the term’s accomplishments of
each of the 16 Frosh Commission
project groups ami a recognition

is chairman of the recognition
services.
PROBLEMS OF HOUSES
TO BE INVESTIGATED
, -
(Continued from Page One)
methods of long-time financing,
and comparisons of methods are
expected to lead up to a set of
model regulations.
Under the expansion program,
information will be gathered which
is expected to prove very useful
to houses in determining future
building locations and to help
them with their financing and
other overhead costs.
Several other house problems
are to be taken up in the survey
during the year and a more intelli
gent method of arriving at house
quotas will be helped by a study
to reveal the actual accommoda
tions of the various houses. The
survey is expected to afford the
various organizations an oppor
tunity to save thousands of dollars
each year by intelligent buying.
“One instance of the economy
expected by concerted action of
the living organizations is seen in
the comparatively low fuel costs
this year,” Sherrill declared. “The
houses now contract to buy their
annual supplies from bids received
in the open market and the saving
is estimated to be in excess of
one thousand dollars per year.”
Questionnaires To
Evaluate Spanish
Will Attempt To Prove tlie
Language Still Popular
Questionnaires have been sent to
the high schools throughout the
state by Carl J. Furr, of the Ro
mance language department, to de
termine the popularity of Spanish
in high schools, and also the de
mand for Spanish teachers in the
schools. The results of the ques
tionnaire will be reported at the
annual meeting of the American
Association of Teachers of Spanish,
at Boston, on December 26 and 27,
by Leavitt O. Wright, professor of
Romance languages, who will at
tend the meet.
Dr. Wright, who is president of
the local chapter of the association,
does not believe that the popular
ity of Spanish is on the decline de
spite reports to the contrary. It
is expected that questionnaires
will indicate whether this is so or
not.
Carpenter To Attend Meet
Of Law School Association
Charles E. Carpenter, dean of
the law school, will attend the an
nual meeting of the Association of
American Law schools, which
meets at Chicago December 29 to
31.
At this convention problems ef
fecting law schools will be consid
ered, and questions of law teach
ing and writing as well as prob
lems of various other fields of law
are discussed at a series of round
tables.

Monroe Doctrine
Obsolete, Opinion
Of Congress Club
Majority of Members Say
Latin Republics Need
No More Protection
The Monroe Doctrine is obsolete
in the opinion of the majority of
the members of the Congress club.
In their meeting last night, a mi
nority upheld the doctrine on the
argument that the Central and
South American countries still
need the protection of the United
States.
The popular opinion considered
the United States quite conceited
if it held such beliefs, because the
Latin republics are far more diplo
matic in their international rela
tions than is this country. Most
of the other countries of the west
ern continent have joined the
League of Nations, the World
Court, and the Pan American Un
ion, it was shown.
Another popular viewpoint of the
members questioned the restric
tion of the doctrine’s attitude to
the western continent. With the
I intricate economic relations of the
i United States to the rest of the
world, it was pointed out that any
; disturbance anywhere in the world
would have as great an effect on ;
the United States as disturbances [
in the Central and South American
countries.
For the next meeting it was de
cided to discuss the “Success of
Democracy.” The subject will be
introduced by George Bennett.
