However, don't rejoice toe vociferously; for you must stil wear the traditional green lie and bow your heads in shame before your elders. Take care that you don't mislay it; for the Order of the “O” has deter mined to enforce the rule strictly this year; and all of fenders will be hailed before the court of tradition, where their sins will be laid bare and their punishment prescribed. Frosh caps can be obtained at the Co-op or other stores for a mere pittance of fifty cents, and it behooves the wary freshman to get his before the Order of the “O” gets him, as the rule goes into effect today.

COLONIAL — “Skyscraper Souls.” STATE—"The Crowd Roars.” REX—"The Painted Woman." McDonald The romance of the tuna fish eries, with its wealth of dramatic highlights and perils, is portrayed in "Tiger Shark,” which starts a three-day run at the McDonald to night. The versatile Edward G. Robin son plays the role of a Portugese fisherman, adding another to his growing list of racial characteri zations. Richard Arlen plays the part of his first mate, and Zita Johann, the part of a lovely or phan whom the fisherman be friends and later marries. Many of the spectacular sea shots were made off the west coast of Mexico, where man-eating sharks abound in great schools. These scenes add a great deal to the thrill of the picture. “Tiger SharK'1 was directed by Howard Hawks, who also made “Dawn Patrol” and “The Crowd Roars.” Colonial “Skyscraper Souls,” which ends its run at the Colonial tonight, fol lows the new trend of motivating drama through the background. "Grand Hotel” was the first not able success of this kind. “Union Depot,” “Transatlantic,” and “Hotel Continental” have been at tempts at the same thing.

How ac curate? And what agency is best qualified to collect and present them. l .^1 fnl fnl fnl fTTl GO fPTI r£l fTH m m m m m m m rn m m en m in m Mice Abound in Huestis? Shack; But He Likes 1 By ANN-REED BURNS Generally speaking, the wor “mice” suggests bites nibbled on of food-traps and cheese—wome jumping on a chair as somethin small and gray scuttles across th floor. But there are mice and mice—a you would realize if you shoul visit Dr. R. H. Huestis’ little shac! back of the biological research lab oratory. It is filled with bushe boxes, each housing a nest of mic — not the common "kitchen spe cies” (they are really importei from Asia) but the deer mouse, i native of North America. In Silver Lake, Oregon, Dr Huesfis several months agi trapped an ordinary field mouse. I) three different litters of its chil dren. out of each litter of fou one mouse was of a new color never found before on a dee: mouse. The color is known a: brown agouti a sort of yellowish brown. Dr. Huestis believes that this new mutation is caused by agent which is present in many deei mice as a recessive trait, and wher present in troth parents, produces in one-fourth of the offspring a brown-agouti coat. The norma color of the mouse is a grayish brown. This discovery of Dr. Huestis has attracted the national interest oi scientists; he has received inquir ies concerning it from such well known men as J. K. Doatt of the Carnegie museum and W. S. Castle of Harvard. Meeting of Amphibian Club Tuesday Night The Amphibian club members met Tuesday night to enjoy a good swim and to talk over theii plans for the year.

Greyhound Lines i 9 Yeggs Take $600 In WSC Robbery Two masked robbers looted the purser’s office at the Washington State college early yesterday morning and obtained $600 in stamps and about $3 in cash. After binding E. J. Carson, the night watchman on duty at the time, an attempt was made to open a larger safe but it was un successful. ’ The attempt on the registration funds recalls the unsuccessful at c tempt made at the University of Oregon Sept. 25, 1931, when yeggs made a vain effort to steal the reg istration funds during freshman j week. L Also at Oregon State college, December 4, 1931, a similar raid on the college vaults netted rob , bers $340 in cash. Similar meth j ods were employed at that, time as . I were used in the W. S. C. rob . bery. Dr, Clark Reports Classes Enlarged Extension classes are being en larged in scope, according to Dr. Dan E. Clark, assistant director of general extension. Classes are be- j ing resumed in Portland, Salem, ' Eugene and Medford at the present | time, and Dr. Clark expects to see extension classes started in Cor vallis in the near future. Statistics on registration are not available yet, but are expected to hold up to last year's mark, at least as far as Portland is con cerned. Two of the courses taught in Portland have been dropped, and several new ones added, calling in to use still more professors from the University and Oregon State college. Phi Delta Phi Banquet Scheduled Thursday Phi Delta Phi, national law hon j orary, will hold a banquet Thurs day evening at 6 p. m. at the Col lege Side Inn. Dean Wayne L. Morse, of the law school, will be guest speaker of the evening. Carl ton E. Spencer and Orlando J. Hol lis, faculty members of the hon orary, will also be present at the I banquet. According to Otto Frohnmayer, ' president, the law honorary is the oldest national organization in the country, and is open to outstand ing students in the law school. Arnold R. Beezer, province pres ident of Phi Delta Phi, from Seat tle, will be a guest in Eugene over Sunday and Monday. -. aggfeg Education Dean From Corvallis Proves Popular With the exception of those ma joring in education, most students l do not know that there is a new j dean of education with us this year. Nevertheless there is a cer j tain Dean J. R. Jewell, who comes | from Corvallis, where he has been j making friends and admirers by the score for the past five years. An indescribable quality of ; warmth and sincerity about Dean Jewell makes him likeable at first meeting. He is one of a few men who can make a first acquaintance feel at ease, and his sweeping ver satility makes him always inter esting or interested. Dean Jewell is a southerner by birth and a gentleman by instinct. He hails from the same part of Tennessee <is does Dean J. H. Gil bert, another member of our fac ulty. He attended dt Coe college, Cedar Rapids, Iowa, and later he studied at Clark university, where he roomed with Dean H. D. Shel don, also of this institution. Dr. Jewell is a member of Phi Beta Kappa, and holds an honor ary degree in law granted by the University of Arkansas, in addi tion to his Ph.D. from Coe college. Students of Music Active on Campus Statistics of the number of stu dents enrolled in the music depart ment are to be compiled this week, says John J. Landsbury, dean of the school of music. More than 65 students are try ing out for orchestra this quarter, and, according to Rex Underwood, director, various concertos and symphonic compositions by Haydn, Schubert, Beethoven, and other composers are being prepared for rendition later on. The band has about 15 fewer members than last year. However, Mr. Stehn, director, says that the band displays splendid musician ship this year. Arthur Boardman, head of the vocal department, announces that there are still plenty of openings in the Polyphonic choir for new mem bers, and that their project is the preparation of Handel’s oratorio, “The Messiah" which will be given December 11. Student Recovering Woodrow Everett; a freshman at the University^ who is recover ing from an appendix operation at St. Vincent's hospital, is making rather fast progress despite the fact that he had a very severe at tack of appendicitis last Thursday. Pointing the way to the advertised brand Many a “sale” made hy advertising has gone to a competitor because the purchaser did not know where to buy the advertised brand. Tele phone men evolved a plan to make it easy to find. They created a “Where to Buy It” service in the classified telephone directory. There—beneath the advertised trade marks —Buick, Goodrich, RCA Victor, General Electric and many others now list authorized local dealers. Thus telephone men complete the chain between advertiser and consumer —increase the effectiveness of advertis ing — help manufacturers and dealers to increase sales —help consumers to get what they want! Because they apply vision to subscribers’ prob lems, Bell System men continually increase ‘he value of telephone service. BELL SYSTEM A NATION-WIDE SYSTEM Of 1NTER-CONNECT!NG TELEPHONE#
