Returns From
Chicago Meet
Association Conference
Attended
Ella Carrick of Cataloging Desk
Describes Conclave in East;
3000 at Sessions
Although she had just arrived in
Eugene that morning from a trip
to Chicago, where she attended the
conference of the American Li
brary association, Miss Ella Car
rick was back on duty at her desk
in the cataloging department in
the library yesterday afternoon.
Miss Carrick was away for about
two and a half weeks, having left;
Eugene on October 13. She at-;
tended the conference for her own j
pleasure, not as a delegate from
the University library.
In her opinion the highlight of
the conference was the presenta
tion of the Newbery medal from
1933 to Elizabeth Foreman Lewis,
for her book “Young Fu.” The
medal is awarded annually by the
children’s librarians section of the
A. L. A. for the best children's
book published that year.
Author Speaks
Mrs. Lewis, the author of the
book, spoke informally at the con
ference and autographed copies of
her book for the delegates.
A number of foreign delegates
were at the conference, Miss Car
rick said. Among them was Mon
signor Eugen Tissarant, of the
Vatican library in Rome. He ad
dressed the conference in English.
A librarian from the British mu
seum in London was also present.
The conference was attended by
3000 delegates and was held in the
Stevens hotel. General headquar
ters was located in an exhibition
hall filled with exhibits of books
on various subjects, library furni
ture, and many other items of in
terest to librarians.
Conference Sectioned
Sessions of the conference were
divided into general ones and spe
cial ones of interest to people in
the various types of library work.
“I attended a little of every
thing in the way of special ses
sions,” said Miss Carrick. “I was
particularly interested in the cata
loging and public documents ses
sions, as my work here has to do
with those two subjects. I also
attended the children's session to
see the presentation of the New
bery medal.”
Virgil Will Show
Magic in Eugene
On November 10
Mystery and magic lurk in the
darkness of Hallowe’en night, but
even more baffling mystery and
more thrilling magic are promised
University students and Eugene
folk on November 10, when Virgil,
master magician and illusionist,
appears at the armory.
Virgil was a student in the
drama department of the University
from 1921 to 1924, when a “spot
ter” for a vaudeville company
lured him from the campus with a
fat contract. He had been inter
ested in magic since was eight
years old, and he had made his
first professional appearance at
the age of IS, when still a student
at Eugene high school.
Since he left the University, Vir
gil has trouped in nearly every
state in the union. For about five
years he has been a co-partner
with W. B. McDonald (of the Co
lonial theater McDonald-Godfrev
combination) in the talkie thea
ter business.
This year he had a huge semi
trailer specially built to carry a
party of seven and the ten tons
of apparatus used in his two
hour program. His new venture
with "the second largest magic
show in the United States” opened
auspiciously October 15, playing
to full houses in Port Townsend,
Washington, with “standing room
only” signs out the fourth night.

w tsn t it exasperat* J
i ng to ha> s to miss a
wonderful party because of “recurring” pains?
Embarrassing, too, when you can’t tell friends j
the reason. But now, no need to flunk an exam
or miss a party. When you are below par, take
Kalms, quick-acting tablets developed by
Johnson & Johnson especially to relieve “re
curring” pains, such as headache, backache and
neuralgia. One tablet is enough for most cases.
Kalms are safe, do not affect digestion or heart
action, and are not habit-forming. Your drug
gist has them in purse-size boxes of 12 tablets.

Plaster Likeness of
Prehistoric Skull
Bests King Kong
Adam was as modern as Buck
Rogers, compared to dear old
“Pithecanthropus Erectus,” a
mere boy of 500,000 years of age
“Pithe's” skull, or rather, a
plaster model of it, is reposing in
some excelsior at Condon hall,
along with plaster models of a go
rilla’s skull—an out-of-date King .
Kong,—an orang-outang, a gibbon,
and a chimpanzee.
“Pithe's” skull bears a marked
resemblance to that of the gorilla
about the frontal bones above the
eyes. “Pithe” was much higher
at the back of the head, however,
and probably had it over King
Kong's grand-daddy by a long way.
Although the scientists are still
arguing about how old Mr. Erec
tus is, they are rather well agreed
that he was a man, that he was
the oldest one known, and that he
had his day at least 500,000 years
ago. They may be off a few hun
dred years, but what’s that to
Pithecanthropus Erectus ? He
probably wouldn’t feel at home
now, anyway.
The box of models is an inter
departmental loan from the an
thropology department of Oregon
State college. The two schools
frequently exchange material when
one or the other needs it for the
instruction of classes.
Thursday to End
Sale of Mums for
U. O.-Utah Game
Money and Blanks Will Be Turned
In to Committee Chairman
On November 2
Only three days in which to buy
’mums remain. On Thursday, No
vember 2, the sales close, and all
money and remaining blanks must!
be turned in to Marie Saccomanno'
at the Kappa Delta house. For
selling' ’mums the house represent
ative receives a free ’mum.
Since all ’mums are uniform in
appearance and price, 75 cents, the
confusion of last year in making
out the blanks can be avoided.
Besides being ornamental, the
’mums are an outward sign of
school loyalty.
Heading the committee for the
sale of ’mums is Marie Sacco
manno, chairman, with Janet Mc
Micken, sales manager, and Betty
Ohlemiller, publicity, assisting.
’Mums will also be sold for the
Oregon-Oregon State game in
Portland, and will be waiting for
students at Tommy Luke’s until
1:30 Saturday, November 11.
The money and -blanks for the
’mums to be worn at the Portland
game must be in by November 9,
while the sales close Wednesday,
November 8.
Posters, advertising the ’mums,
have been distributed in all houses
on the campus, as well as in the
College Side, Taylor's, and various
other places where the students
gather.
This week, accompanied by
members of the speakers’ commit
tee and the Phi Mu trio, consist
ing of Lucy Ann Wendell, Mary
Margaret Lott, Margaret Ellen Os
borne, accompanied by Maxine ]
McDonald, will visit the various
living organizations, singing the

Educational
Plan Studied
By Honorary
State Officials to Work|
With Phi Delta Kappa
Efficient Business Administration
and Reorganization of
Schools Needed
Phi Delta Kappa, men s honor
ary in education, has for its main
project this year the formation of
a workable plan to correct the:
present educational crisis in the j
state. They will work in coopera- j
tion with the state department, Phi j
Delta Kappa members and offi- ;
cials throughout the state, and the
school of education at the Univer
sity and the state college.
The committee for the formula
tion of the plan is: Dr. C. L. Huf
faker, of the school of education,
chairman; Leo Leslie of Univer
sity high, treasurer; Joseph A.
Holaday, of University high, sec
retary; Wendell L. Van Loan, of
Roosevelt high; Dr. Victor P. Mor
ris; Rex Putnam, superintendent
of schools at Albany; and C. A.
Howard, state superintendent of
schools.
Conditions Critical
An example of the situations re
sulting from the crisis is the case
of a teacher who was working in
a lumber camp in Klamath county.:
He secured a school in easternj
Oregon. He was unable to use his,
first warrant for either food or ]
fuel. His wages as a day laborer
were better than those as a teach
sr so he loaded his family in a lum
ber truck and returned to Klam
ath county. The school board of
the eastern Oregon district is now
attempting to have his license re
voked.
A Phi Beta Kappa from this
campus found that warrants he re
ceived in exchange for his services
at an eastern Oregon school were
worthless. He wrote to a friend,
“I am trying to save enough mon
sy to buy the gasoline to return.”
Some districts are paying $40
a month wages in warrants and
the warrants are positively un
cashable.
Reorganization Needed
Dr. Huffaker says that with ef
fective reorganization of schools
and an efficient business adminis
tration that the elementary and
secondary schools of the state
could be operated for $9,000,000
annually. At present, although no
definite figures are available, the
estimated cost of elementary and
secondary education, which cost
would include debt services, would
be $18,000,000 annually, with the
possibility of a much higher fig- j
ure.
Dr. Huffaker and his assistants !
hav.e done a great deal of work on ■
the problem and formulating a
workable plan.

ers of Japan, who are subscribing
to a life membership at a cost of
$3 gold. As a result of Otsuka’s
influence, the government has ap
propriated 80,000 yen to build an
international house for occidental
students who want to go to Japan
to study.
While on the campus Otsuka
took a keen interest in the work
of the International Relations
club and in the Murray Warner
collection of oriental art, regarded
as the finest in the West. He al
so delighted in informally enter
taining friends, often donning an
apron and cooking, with genuine
skill, a tasty all-Japanese dinner.
Many friends on the campus still
hear from him and are watching
his work.

COLONIAL — Three short

By J. A. NEWTON
An Historic Picture
Any motion picture which makes
an everyday event assume a great
er significance is to be classified
as great. Such a picture is “Night
Flight” at the Mac.
“Night Flight" deals with the
inauguration of a night airmail
service over the Andes mountains
and up the west coast of South i
America.
If any of these stars are your
favorites you will be disappointed
in the size of his part. That is the
trouble with so many stars in one
picture,—no one has a big part.
As a story, as a unit with some
thing to tell, “Night Flight”
stands out. The word to describe
it is “important.” Very few pic- ;
tures nowadays really have some
thing to tell; they aren’t impor
tant. They’re entertainment. Not
so “Night Flight,” although it cer
tainly is, for the most part, very
entertaining too.
But this show is more than tha,t.
It’s a monument to man’s progress
Aviation becomes big and noble
with this show. The hum of the
passenger plane at 5 in the after
noon and that of the mail at 11 at
night means a great deal more
after seeing “Night Flight." Rec
ommended. Don’t miss it.
In favor of "Torch Singer,”
Claudette Colbert is in it, and she's
always good, as are Ricardo Cor
tez and David Manners. On the
other side, I must say I’m rather
disgusted with the maternity ward
scenes,—not particularly in this
picture, but in others also. Cer
tainly there should be a limit to
the dripping sentimentality and
intimacy of these motherhood
scenes which are thrown upon the
unsuspecting public.
After all, there is a time anu
place for such things, and the
Claudette Coineri, who fur
nishes the heat in “Torch Singer.”
screen does not impress me as the
place.
Having dispatched the mother
hood scenes, this piece proceeds
it a fairly good pace. The girl
ises the radio to locate her daugh
ter and finds the child’s father at
the same time.
More Comedy Carnival
The Colonial management has
moved its Wednesday show up, and
tonight will begin what gives
promise of being rather hilarious
entertainment. W. C. Fields, the

Cressman, Stafford, Smith Visit
Marshfield District in
Search of Data
A field trip into the coast re
gions, which yielded much inter
esting information and part of a
skeleton, was taken recently by a
party under Dr. L. S. Cressman
of the sociology department.
Cressman, Howard S. Stafford,
and Dr. Warren D. Smith, chief
geologist of the party, followed the
; coast through Marshfield and be
low there to look at some private
collections of Indian material in
order to judge the possibilities of
the district.
The University has a fine gen
eral collection of Oregon speci
mens made by Dr. Thomas Condon
first professor Of geology at the
school, but his collection is incom
plete in regard to certain locali
ties. It is the object of the science
group to'enlarge this collection.

Furthermore. Mickey Mouse will

Popeye should become very popu
