jFrnnk Crosswailli Known
As Negro Organizer,
Says Townsend
"Mr. Crosswaith is well known
the nation over as an organizer
bf labor among the negroes. He
is said to be a good orator, and a
very well-informed man.'' This is
the opinion of Dr. H. G. Townsend,
professor of philosophy, on the
speaker who has been secured for
the campus tomorrow.
Frank Crosswaith will appear
on the campus under the auspices
of the faculty committee on free
intellectual activities, and will
Bpeak at 105 Commerce building.
His subject will be “The Economic
Basis of Race Prejudice.” This
subject, according to Dr. Town
send, should be of particular in
terest to students in sociology and j
to economics majors. It will be a I
free lecture, open to all students
and townspeople.
Mr. Crosswaith has a brilliant
record of service to the working
people. He has organized labor
unions for mechanics, barbers, mo
tion picture operators, and many
other working groups. He is
probably best known through his
work as special organizer for the
brotherhood of sleeping car por
ters. Besides his work with or
ganized labor, Mr. Crosswaith is
known as the Socialist party’s
foremost orator. He has run for
several offices on the Socialist
ticket.
During his stay on the campus,
he will be a guest at the Interna
tional house. A special luncheon
meeting will be held on Thursday
noon by members of the Cosmo
politan club, at which Mr. Cross
waith will be the guest speaker.
JANE THACHER CASTS
SPELL OVER AUDIENCE
(Continued from rape. One)
hiovement, Jane Thacher moved
her vast audience to emotional
appreciations which few can call
forth.
She dominated her instrument,
She led out the emotions of her
audience. She was faithful to the
Stern demands of the score. No
higher tribute can be paid. Her
great strength and exact touch,
her superb understanding of the
values and thoughts behind the!
finest expression of sorrow in all
piano literature gave to her play
ing a cpiality which can only be
called sublime.
The agitated rhythm of the bat- i
^oV the spirit that
wins the dash
Whether you like your track on the smooth cin
ders or prefer detouring cross country — you
know it's more than second wind that keeps you
going. To go faster and farther — try Shredded
Wheat. Your coach It nows it means more fuel
for the body—and that’s more speed for the legs.
That’s because all there is of Shredded W heat
is good—and you digest it to the last calorie. It’s
the breakfast of record breakers it’s on the
training table of the consistent meet winners.
And if your running is confined to making early
classes, Shredded Wheat can be eaten for break
fast in less time with better results than anything
else you can order! Try it tomorrow!

tie scene—the tender melody of
the dream the remorseless tread
of slow feet the piteous anguish
of a nation forlorn the howling,
swirling wind desolating the land,
the autumn leaves blown over the
open grave of a great nation—
that is the reading she gave the
stupendous "Sonata.”
The lilting emotionalism of
Soro’s “Declaration” was a relief,
and the Rachmaninoff transcrip
tion of Kreisler’s "Liebesleid” was
equally brilliant. Though the notes
covered the entire keyboard, the
melody and rhythm stood out
prominently through the maze of
decorative technique.
The last program was the "Fu
nerailles” of Liszt, which drags
emotional responses from the au
dience by pure musical structures.
Suspended rhythms, rumbling bass
figures, clashing discords, and mil
itant chords rise to ■ a crashing
climax which left many of the
listeners in an emotional stupor,
so powerful was the work, so
faithful the rendition, so perfect
the interpretation.
De Falla’s “Fire Ritual” was
played as an encore number. It
provided an effective let-down
after the tense glory of the Liszt
number.
Dorothy Lee To Speak

What, part women play in poli
tics will be revealed tonight by
Dorothy McCullough Lee at a din
ner of Pi Lambda Theta, national

The dinner will take place at
the Anchorage at 6 o'clock and
will be attended by members of
the honorary and their guests.

Dr. Illakeinaii Speaks
Al Methodist Meetings
Dr. Edward W. Blakeman, direc
tor of the Wesley Foundation of
the University of California, was
the principal speaker at. both the
morning service of the Methodist
church and the evening Wesley
Foundation meeting Sunday. The
day was observed by the local
Methodist church as Wesley Foun
dation day.
At the morning church service
Dr. Blakeman spoke on the relation
of the church to the state Univer
sity, pointing out that it is the
place of the church to give their
students religious education in the
state university which as a state
supported institution cannot give
its students religious training.
At the evening Wesley Founda
tion meeting Dr. Blakeman spoke
on “Group Thinking on Major Is
sues in College Life.” The worship
service preceding his talk was in
charge of Jack Bellinger.
Dr. Blakeman also spoke to the
Wesley Foundation council at a
meeting Sunday afternoon at 4
o'clock. He explained to them the 1
activities of the Wesley Founda
tion of the University of California.
Band Spring Series
Opened Sunday Night
The University band opened the
spring concert series Sunday night
before an audience of several hun
dred people. The band played from
the tennis courts between the old
library and Commerce building.
This program, which was the
first of a series of six concerts, in
cluded selections from Gounod's
"Faust," Rolllnson's “The Hunting
of the Snark,'' a Ball medley, “Isle
o' Dreams," and the Sousa march.
"King Cotton."
Details of the Mother's day con
cert will be announced later in the
week. Special features have been
planned by John H. Stehn, direc
tor.
WHAT SHOW TONIGHT ?
Colonial — William Powell and
Kay Francis in “For the De
fense.”
Heilig — Wheeler and Woolsey,
Edna Mae Oliver, in “Cracked
Nuts.”
McDonald — Marlene Dietrich
in "Dishonored.”
State — “He Knew Women,”
and “The Squealer.”
Marlene Dietrich Scores
The invincible combination of
Marlene Dietrich and Josef Von
Sternberg, of “Morocco,” and
“Blue Angel" fame, create another
intensely dramatic cinema in “Dis
honored,” now playing for the last
day at the McDonald.
If you want to see one of the
finest dramas of the year, one of
those that are considered for acad
emy prizes, go by all means to
"Dishonored.”
Combined with the restrained
fihesse of Marlene is direction that
makes one gasp. Von Sternberg
knows the value of a shadow on
the wall, knows how to make even
dressing a dramatic moment.
On the State theatre’s double bill
for this week are a comedy and a
melodrama. The first is titled “He
Knew Women.” “The Squealer” is
the second.
Wheeler and Woolsey Comedy
Hilarious
A fussy maiden-aunt; a beautiful
girl; two rival kings; a restless
executioner and a crazy kingdom—
these are the laugh-provoking in
gredients of Wheeler andWoolsey’s
Marlene Dietrich in “Dishon
ored,” showing at the McDonald.
latest comedy, “Cracked Nuts,”
playing at the Heilig today.
The high spot of the picture is
the work of Edna Mae Oliver, the
prissy Mrs. Wyatt of “Cimarron”
fame. She nearly steals the show
with the most refreshing hits of
hilarious comedy we have seen in
months.
William Powell at Colonial
William Powell is starring at the
Colonial today in a re-playing of
one of his finest efforts, “For the
Defense.”
The cast includes tawny Kay
Francis, whose work is so out
standing in this film that it raised
her to the front rank of leading
ladies from almost total obscurity.
So effective it was that she is
talked about as a contender for
the Motion Picture Academy's
prize.
Railroad Crisis
To Be Erb’s Topic
On KOBE Today
Professor of Economics
Will Speak Over
Emerald Hour
“The Present Railroad Crisis”
will be Donald Erb's subject when
he goes before the microphone at
4:45 this afternoon during the reg
ular Emerald editorial hour. The
talk will be one of a series to be
given by University professors
over KORE, sponsored by the Em
erald. Mr. Erb is a member of the
economics faculty and has been
especially interested for many
years in transportation problems.
“The railroads in the past two
or three years have suffered an
enormous decline of revenue, and
the new situation has brought
about grave problems in their man
agement,” Mr. Erb said in explain
ing his choice of topic. “The causes
of this decline are partly due, of
course, to the business depression,
but there are other causes not di
rectly connected with this general
condition. One important cause is
the development of other means of
transportation, busses, trucks, and
water ways.
“The attempts of the railroads
to meet the situation and stave
off its evil effects have presented
interesting material. They have
more than ordinary significance be
cause there are billions of dollars
involved in every type of invest
ment which depend on the rail
roads. The situation affects every
person in more ways than one.”
Third in the term's radio series
will be a talk by Dr. Victor P. Mor
ris, also of the economics depart
ment, who will speak probably on
t lie business cycle Thursday at the
same hour. The first Emerald
speaker was Frank Gardner Hale,
well-known metal craftsman and
artist, who visited the campus
some weeks ago.

scholarship to better utilization of
time on the part of members. He
pointed out that 90 per cent of the
students at Friendly hall were self
supporting:. and intimated that
they had a keener appreciation of
the need for scholastic achieve
ment.
Wick Sets Face
Clair Meisel, social chairman of
the hall, expressed the opinion that
the influence of Wick as sponsor
was an important factor in the
high rating secured by Friendly.
"Mr. Wick." he said, “has set a
high standard for himself, with S4
points to his credit. Inasmuch as
over f>0 per cent of the members 1
of Friendly hall are freshmen, I j
believe that his interest and en-!
eouragement are largely responsi
ble for the unprecedented record j
established for men's living organ- :
izations. i
Miss Thomas To Talk
At Albany Y. W. Today
Miss Dorothy Thomas, secretary
of the Y. W. C. A., will leave this

tions to the Albany Y. W. C. A.

Mrs. Fitch was undaunted by

started through her files in search
of a probable list of names. After
she had selected about 20, she read

recognize any of them. Then Mrs.
Fitch had an idea—a good one, too.
She invited him to come over and
inspect the pictures of these 20

as about the eighteenth picture

inspection, the man exclaimed: ^
‘‘There he is!”
