NEWTON WIELL, for once I'll agree with ” somebody, namely the lass who writes Vanity Fair’s movie criti cism. She declared Barbara Stan wyck one of Hollywood’s finest actresses, and I agree. Anyone who saw her do her fa vorite movie scene on the staeg when she appeared with her hubby, Frank Fay, in “Tattle Tales,” knows. Now she's in the Mac's picture, “Gambling Lady,” and plays the part of the daughter of a square gambler. Father can’t make ends meet with straight card playing, so he shoots himself. Daughter goes out and cleans up by playing a square game. Wins herself a so ciety and money husband, but her former friends keep popping up. Hubby makes misstep, and it gets complicated, but love wins out in the end. “A Modern Hero" plot: Barthel mess rises from circus performer to millionaire by driving ambition, taking on and discarding six va rious and assorted women. Picture ends with hero broke y and-sad.* His 'motherlie's just beginning, and will rise to greater heights. One wonders! Saw part of “Ed’s Coed,” and it is just about as one would expect. It’s an amateurish production and isn’t particularly exciting. It is interesting because of its local in terest ,and the wise guys at the mike get off a few good ones. Wait’ll you hear the car doors close. The heroine seems to be a pretty nice girl. And how interesting are the fashions of the day. There are lots of legs, and a few rolled stock ings, which was a fashion in those days, and has its merits today. Not Seen So all I can tell you about “I’ll Tell the World” is that Lee Tracj is again a reporter. This time or a syndicate, whence, no doubt comes the title about telling tht world. Tracy is seldom dull. It’s a firsl run, or are you interested?

University Coeds Give Their Ideas on Marriage, Career Hearing for the 259th time yes terday in one of our classes that the college woman is using her college experience as a sort of transit between childhood and mar riage, we decided to take a cross section of the coed’s opinion and find out their ideas on the sub ject. One young lady, languishing in the library over a weighty tome, raised her eyes slowly as we ruth lessly bolted out with our “how do-you-feel-about-it” question. “Marriage—ah, yes! Marriage.” She fashioned her lips as though this queer word carried her back aways. Gradually there returned a glimmer of understanding. "Oh yes! Marriage.” With that she laid down the book she had been reading, took off her glasses and began: “I'm not interested in marriage at the present time. You see, it s too far away. I've got to sample living before I settle down. I mean really sample it, not this bilge water idea of life that one hears about usually, but the real thing. Somehow, right now ' I couldn’t stand the responsibility of fussing with a house—my room mate goes crazy enough as it is just caring for our room.” With this answer we became in terested in finding out what more girls think about the question— girls who, as far as some profs are concerned, are biding their time until that certain question is1 asked. And then we discovered some thing—something we hadn’t no You’ll Find the Newest ARROW Shirts and Shorts in Eugene at ERIC MERRELL CLOTH lid FOR MEN “The College Man's Store” 825 Willamette HI31fiI3ISISISISISfSISiB13J5!5]SJSI3J5MSISISS Get the Classified Habit Looking for ;i l’laco to Live ?

TELL YOUR WANTS TO US—WE WILL TELL THE CAMPUS s Phone 3300 Local 214 iramra; ticed before: that those girls who were pretty busy with things in general, and interested in a par ticular line, usually threw back their head and smiled—“sometime perhaps, but there’s too much to do, and see, and think about, and feel before that time. I’d like to work a while and find out for my self what all this careering is about.” We expanded with pleasure as these opinions streamed into line with our own ideas on the subject. It seems logical reasoning to ob serve that those college women who have found a definite niche want to do something about it—not nec essarily something sensational, but with the attitude that “we’ll be all the better for it.” On the contrary, those that are biding time are looking around a bit. One young lady cryptically re plied: “Well, the only danger is that these domestic little creatures will pick all the good men, and when we get ready . . . well, what did Ann Vickers do?” “You're covering too much ter ritory there,” we hastily interrupt ed. “What about the sane remarks of so-and-so, who remarked very colmly that she was getting a cul tural background preparatory to building herself a home. Or in the words of Sally Allen: “Marriage is like a portrait; you have to paint it.”—And that takes thought and time. !

SUE SEZl - Bet ty Powers was seen sporting the very latest in fur trim for spring outfits—a real-live-honest-to-goodness white rat (Ugh!) draped coyly ’round her neck. One of these quaint looking needle-like tail effects with lush red eyes. Ah, me!—Ghosts!! What wails! What groans! What weird, gosh-awful noises! In reality only Bob Bid dell, Chuck Cummings and .John Llewelyau Saturday night rendering a few horrible imitations of singing in loud, lusty and uncertain tones, tunes and words. Well! And well!

They surely look like what the well dressed nudist wears in her more exposed moments! This alone is worth the. price of admission. And say! The, ankle-choker pants the “eds" wear! You’ll just hoot!
