WHAT SHOW TONIGHT ? Colonial — Maurice Chevalier in "Playboy of Paris." Heilig — Virgil Mulkey, the ma gician. Feature picture. McDonald —■ Will Rogers in "Connecticut Yankee.” State—Edmund Rowe in “Good Intentions." Workshop Theatre (13th and Ferry "Ten Nights in a Ear room.” Campus cast. Curtain at 8:15 p. m. Virgil Mulkey at lleilig Virgil Mulkey, Eugene boy, graduate of the University, one time star of Guild hall productions, known as one of the cleverest ma gicians in the country today, is opening a three-day Heilig engage ment today. Accompanying him are all the people and accoutrements neces sary to put on a full stage show that compares favorably with those of the late Houdini. The Heilig is showing a new cinema each day, along with the complete change in acts Virgil shows during his engagement. Will Rogers Film Hilarious A lot more hilarious anachron isms than were ever intended or dreamed by Mark Twain, are in cluded in Will Rogers’ version of “A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court,” now showing at the McDonald. However, all the Rogers innovations would surely have received the whole hearted approval of Twain. How, for in stance, was Twain to foresee the comic value of a whole fleet of Austins rushing to the rescue of the Yankee, or the auto-gyro that drops bombs, or the amazing qual ities of a magic cigarette lighter? In the cast besides Rogers are Wil liam Farnum, Myrna Loy, Maur een O'Sullivan, and thousands of extras. Sets of Arthurian castles are remarkably good.

TARIFFS IN DEPRESSION, SAYS PORTLAND TRADER (Continued from Page One) nett told how a cargo could be shipped by water from Antwerp to Portland cheaper than the same cargo could be shipped from San Francisco to Seattle. To those who are interested in taking up foreign trade work for an occupation, Mr. Barnett ad vised that they take all the busi ness administration and courses relating to foreign trade as pos sible. “Foreign trade,” he said, "is a field that is far from over crowded, and with the world as large as it is it will be a long, long time before it is overdone. Foreign trade is opening up new fields day after day, which means a chance for those who are ambi tious of learning the business.” Mr. Barnett is a former student of the University, dropping out of school in 1917 to join the army and see active service in France. The John G. Barnett company, Inc., is a result of eight years of intensive work by Mr. Barnett. It is now one of the leading export and import houses on the Pacific coast. He has always been ambitious. When he was 16 years old and a student in high school, he opened up a Ford agency which he kept until the time he dropped out of school. Dr. Rebec To Address Presbyterian Banquet Dr. George Rebec, dean of the graduate school, will address the annual banquet of the First Pres byterian church in Portland this evening. He will confer with graduate students Friday morning. Dr. F. S. Dunn To Speak At Classics Convenion Appearing as one of the four speakers before the American Clas sical league will be the honor for Prof. Frederic S. Dunn, head of the Latin department, when the Na tional Education association con venes June 30 at the University of Southern California. The invitation to take part in the program of the league, which is a division of the National Edu cation association, was recently received by Professor Dunn from Ralph V. D. Magoffin of New York university, who is president of the American Classical league. “From Temple Pediment to Cathedral Campus” is the title of the paper which he is preparing on the similarity of subject mat ter found in pagan culture to that found later in Christianity. For a number of years Professor Dunn has attended the national conclave, representing the North west from the regional committee. Treasure Hunt Hike Flannel for Saturday A mystery hike, under Mae Mas terton’s leadership, has been sched uled for this Saturday, leaving the Gerlinger building at 1 o’clock on Saturday afternoon and traveling up to the three cabins beyond Hendricks park, a distance of about six miles. Each girl will be required to bring a plain Hershey bar and five cents. The hike will be held along the same lines as a treasure hunt, however, the motif is being kept secret. Any girl on the campus who is interested in walking is in vited to turn out for this hike. Records of hiking, taken from fall and winter terms, show that 53 girls have gone on one or more hikes. Many of these girls have hiked more than a hundred miles. The listing of the exact amount of miles covered will be given later, according to Ella Redkey, hiking manager. ROUTE OF DUST CLOUD BRING S DISAGREEMENT (Continued from Page One) was so heavy one couldn’t go out side without holding a wet hand kerchief over the mouth,” Dr. Smith concluded. Let Dr. Hodge take the stand. “When I arose this morning and looked out of the window to the east,” he began, "I saw a grayish cloud just this side of the Cascade mountains. At first I thought it was fog, but I noticed a cloud above it that was azure blue in color, so that I realized the gray ish cloud was dust. "Being an eye-witness to the scene, I am quite certain that the dust came over the mountains di rectly east of here. Collecting some of the dust on a glass slide placed outside a window, I placed it under a microscope, the test proving that it was volcanic dust from Eastern Oregon."
