Hal Hoss To Talk
At Political Meet
Oregon students, who have evi
denced more interest in national,
state and local politics this year
than ever before as shown by the
large registration figures on the
campus, will be given a chance to
take in a real political gathering
next Thursday evening, when the
Young Republicans organization of
Eugene will meet to hear Hal E.
Hoss, secretary of state and a can
didate to succeed himself.
The meeting will be held at 6
o'clock at the Lee-Duke cafe, and
all students interested in joining
the organization or in hearing Mr.
Hoss are requested to get in touch
with Bob Fisher, president of the
group, at telephone 1200. Any call

Faculty To Show
‘Outward Bound’
"Outward Bound,” the audible
cinema version of the famous New
York stage success, will be the
next offering of the faculty club
at the Colonial theatre Thursday.
The picture is said to be even
more effective than the stage
play, since atmospheric effects are
more easily obtained by the cam
era and microphone. An all-star
cast, production of the highest
type and the gripping story com
bine to make this an outstanding
film in every way, it is stated by
S. Stephenson Smith, chairman of
the faculty cinema club.
The picture will have three
showings as usual, the first start
ing at 2 o’clock.
DR. HENDERSON FINDS
UNIQUE HYBRID ON TRIP

about the pines, and this was per
fectly natural, as he had collected
plants all along on his previous
trip. So we began looking for a
possible site as we approached

search uninterruptedly as we
reached the north bank on leaving

twelve miles we came to land that

Campus Will See
Students Dashing
To Seven O’clock
jpARLY campus visitors need
not be unduly alarmed by
thinking that their watches are
an hour slow if they should per
chance see several students
tearing towards Yillard hall
about 6:45 these bright morn
ings.
The reason for this radical de
parture from accepted campus
custom is that the I o’clock
class of the Introduction to Lit
erature class has been changed
to 7 in the morning.
Members of the class will
have grounds for contesting
cruelty on the basis of non-sup
port due to the fact that sev
eral of them have to miss their
breakfasts. Shaving is definite
ly out of the question.
use some technical terms,” he ex
plained. “One species, the kinni
kinnick (arctostaphylos uva-ursi)
has cuneate or wedge - shaped
^leaves less than an inch long; its
flowers are pink, and its ovary to
the fruit is glabrous, or smooth.
Arctostaphylos Columbiana has
wider, oval, lighter colored leaves,
one to two inches long; the flowers
are white, the ovary or young
fruit, is hairy to woolly. The first
is a creeping plant; the second is
an upright bush, two to six feet
high.
“This hybrid was trailing but
about a foot high. It had oblong,
dark colored leaves about one to
two inches long, varying to long
wedge-shaped; the flowers were
white-pink, and the ovary hairy;
there was no sign of fruit. I have
never seen nor heard of such a hy
brid manzanita before, but this is
more a hybrid than a new species,
but just as remarkable.”
League Assembly
Seeks Armistice;
GENEVA, April 18.—TAP)— The
League of Nations assembly com
mittee of 19 today decided tenta
tively to form a mixed commission
of Japanese, Chinese, American,
British, French and Italian repre
sentatives at Shanghai, to exert
every effort to bring armistice ne
gotiations between the Japanese
and Chinese to a successful con
clusion.
I rnc committee was unwilling to
fix a date for Japanese evacuation
and remained divided upon the ex
tent of the authority to be given
the proposed mixed commission.
Irish, Spanish, Swiss and Czech
members of the committee of 19
wished to empower the commission
to fix an evacuation date, but Sir
John Simon, British foreign secre
tary, opposed that plan, saying
the United States might object.
The final formula now rests with
the drafting committee.

but a complete investigation
through clippings and files failed
to bring out any evidence that
Grayson actually had participated
in the race.
Sterling Green, now assistant
managing editor of the Emerald,
who was No. 155 on the Jefferson
squad in 1928, says he is certain
Grayson did not participate. Virgil
D. Earl, who ran off the meet that
year, says he does not remember
Grayson competing in particular.

Dick Neuberger, editor-elect of the
Emerald and Oregonian correspon
dent, went through the files and
was unable to find any stories tell
ing that Grayson actually had seen
action in the meet, which was held
on April 28, and wired George R.
Grayson, father of the athlete, to
that effect.
It is rumored that Grant is the
school protesting Grayson. Should
it be proved that he did participate
in the Oregon meet, the Jefferson
flash will be ineligible for track
this year. Upon the ruling of the
league will depend the fate of the
entire Jefferson team, for Gray
son is its keyman. He recently
ran the 100 in 10 seconds flat,
and holds the state low-hurdle
record. Experts confidently pre
dict he will hit 9.9 before the sea
son is ended. Grayson also is an
outstanding football player, lead
ing the Portland league in scoring
for two successive years. He is a
triple-threat halfback.
Senate O.K.’s Million
Dollar Cut in Dry Fund
WASHINGTON, April 18—(AP)
—The senate today almost unani
mously approved a million dollar
cut in the $11,000,000 prohibition
enforcement fund but the prohi
bitionists rallied to overwhelm two
proposals for deeper reductions.
Senator Johnson (R., Calif.),
stirred up the first prohibition bat
tle of the session with a proposal
to cut the enforcement fund to
$5,125,000, “in the interest of econ
omy.”
Dry leaders assailed the drastic
cut and after a brief flurry de
feated the motion, 42 to 17.
Ban on Short Selling
Vital, Whitney Affirms
WASHINGfORApril 18— (AP)
Testimony the New York stock
market would have been forced to
close when England went off the
gold standard if short selling had
not been prohibited temporarily
was given to the senate banking
committee today by Richard Whit
ney, president of the exchange.
The statement was drawn from
Whitney near the close of a long
day of spirited cross-examination,
but the stock exchange president
would not agree the ban on short
selling was ordered because of a
fear the bears would demoralize
the market.
He insisted the prohibitory rule
was adopted to make the shorts
buy to cover and thus provide a
bolstering factor in the market.

“Sky Devils’ at McDonald
Howard Hughes comes to the
fore again. This time it is “Sky
Devils,” a comedy thriller of the
World War vintage. Spencer
Tracy, William Boyd (of the stage)
and Ann Dvorak, latest of Holly
wood’s late sensations play in the
title roles.
All the thrills of a picture of
this type are used and many more.
An unusual feature is the insertion
of a cute little "Rumble Seat”
scene during the height of the ex
citement while bombs are bursting
far below.
When one “dumb cluck” meets
another “dumb cluck” in the hotel
room of a sweet little bit of non
sense in France during the war
there is bound to be something do
ing. The two “dumb clucks” get
into all sorts of scrapes over their
“almost won and lonely.” The au
dience is alternately snickering,
shaking and —ah—er—shall we
say blushing?
Ann Dvorak handles her role
well; she not only affords a real
treat of silken legs and whatnot
but she has a smile that knocks
’em all out. Additional comedy is
furnished by half-pint George Coo
per who only asks for an airplane
and a couple of bombs to play
around with to put any audience
in delirium tremens.
Characteristic of Hugh’s direct
ing, “Sky Devils,” has a huge ar
ray of planes with lots of action
which is impressive and breath
taking.
“Miss Leading Lady,” is the title
of the picture which is coming to
the McDonald Wednesday for two
days.

“Guilty Hands” at Colonial
“Guilty Hands,” starring Lionel
Barrymore, is as the title suggests,
a mystery picture with a corking
murder in it. In this picture Bar
rymore is conceded to have reached
a new height in cinema circles,
i W. S. Van Dyke directed this
I picture and has used many unus
ual camera shots, which add great
i ly to the effectiveness of the pro
duction. “Guilty Hands” is show
I ing for today only.
“Smart Women,” featuring Rob
ert Ames and Mary Astor, is com
ing Wednesday for two days.

Dolores Costello is the featured

While in Portland Mr. Dunn ex
pects to address the Classical
club of teachers on the subject,
“From Temple Pediment to Cathe

‘Blow at Wages’
WASHINGTON, April 18—(AP)
A billion dollar tax program dif
fering in several important particu
lars from that submitted to the
house ways and means committee
was sent to the senate today by
Secretary Mills of the treasury.
An optimistic outlook for gov
ernmental economy, the secretary
reported, had enabled him to elim
inate entirely the taxes he had pro
posed on gas and electricity and
to recommend a federal gasoline
tax of three-fourths of a cent rath
er than one cent a gallon.
The automobile industry told the
committee, through George M.
Graham of the Rockne Motors cor
poration, its spokesman, that the
tax would be “a direct blow at the
nation’s wages.”
Leading figures in the automo
bile business including Edsel Ford,
Walter P. Chrysler and Alfred P.
Sloan, Jr., president of General
Motors, were present as Graham
attacked the tax of three, two and
one per cent respectively on pleas
ure cars, trucks; and tires, parts
