PLAN SOCIAL SECURITY *
WASHINGTON — The shaping
cf a vast social security program—
designed eventually to aid the job
less, the aged and those too ill or
young to work— was forwarded by
President Roosevelt today at a
meeting with congressional leaders
and cabinet aides.
The chief executive reported he
would send a draft of the program,
accompanied by a special message,
to congress during the coming
week.
While details on the financing of
the unemployment insurance and
old age pensions remain to be
worked out, and the amount of
payments contemplated was not
disclosed, those present at the
white house conference indicated
a federal outlay of $100,000,000 for
the initial year would be required.
BOLIVIAN DEFENSES HOLD
BUENOS AIRES—A fortnight of
bitter, bloody fighting in the
northwest Chaco tonight left Para
guay's a n d Bolivia’s biggest
armies, estimated to total 50,000
to 60,000 men, apparently in
another of their periodic deadlocks.
Dispatches from the warring na
tions indicated the stout Bolivian
defenses protecting Villa Montes,
major army base, and Bolivia’s oil
fields had stopped the smashing,
feinting advance of General. Jose
Estigarribia’s veteran Paraguay
ans.
CHAVEZ CONTESTS CUTTING
ALBUQUERQUE, N. M.—Dennis
Chavez, Democrat, today made his
last bid for the seat in the United
States senate held by Bronson
Cutting-, Republican independent.
Chavez, former congressman
whom Cutting defeated by about
1300 votes last November, an
nounced he had mailed to the sec
retary of the senate a contest of
Cutting's election, and was follow
ing soon to press for a hearing
before the senate elections com
mittee.
INDICT PICTURE COMPANIES
ST. LOUIS — Federal indict
ments against nine moving picture
companies and six of their exec
utives, charging conspiracy to vio
late the Sherman anti-trust law,
were returned today after an in
vestigation which promises more
widespread action.
Based on a St. Louis “movie”
war, the indictments allege War
ners and other major producing
and exhibiting concerns cancelled
franchises under which they agreed
to furnish films, sought to intimi
date and coerce owners of build
ings and in general conspired “in
restraint of trade.”
COCHRAN ARRESTED
RENO—Federal agents, moving
swiftly in their drive to round up
suspected aides of the late George
(Baby Face! Nelson, today ar
rested Frank B. Cochran, widely
known Reno aviator and garage
proprietor, placed his wife, Anna,
in technical custody, and then an
nounced “others may be arrested
latter.”
Cochran, about 50, was charged
with conspiracy to harbor Nelson
during the slain gangster’s secret
sojourn in Nevada and California
early last October.
WAR COUNCIL MAPS PLAN
NEW YORK—The war council
of business and industry mapped
tonight its plan for putting the
punch behind its program for ec
onomic recovery formed by the
joint business conference recently7
in White Sulphur Springs.
Silence guarded details of the
plans formed at a session of the
business conference committee
headed by C. B. Ames, president of
the Texas corporation.
SKOPLYE, Yugoslavia, Jan. 11
— (AP)—The Yugoslav govern
ment today outlawed bride steal
ing.
In an effort to halt the practice,
authorities approved of plans for
exchange of marriageable girls be
tween south Serbia and Herzego
vina.
A dearth of marriageable women
in southern Serbia previously had
caused professional ‘"bride snatch
ers,” white slave traders and even
parents to sell eligible girls at such
high prices that the newlyweds
often faced many years’ economic
bondage.
In Herzegovina, on the other
hand, husbands are scarce, avail
able brides too numerous. Marri
ageable girls often go at prices less
than those for goats or cows.
The government, therefore, has
worked out plans for disposing of
Herzegovina’s surplus single
women in southern Serbia where,
owing to the excess of men, no girl
over 16 goes long unwooed or
wed.
Thousands of girls, it was stated
today, are being either sold or
traded. The surplus would-be
bridegrooms in south Serbia are
delighted to pay S25 to §50 for
brides from Herzegovina, instead
of the normal prices in their dis
trict of $500 to $2,500.
For their part, the prospective
birdes gladly waive dowry rights,
asking only to be assured of shelter
and enough food. In Herzegovina
fod is scarce; in south Serbia even
the poorest never go hungry.
No questions usually are asked

The Sophomore Informal, the
big event of winter term, presents
itself for the approval of the en
tire campus when the doors open
this evening on the garden party
scene in McArthur court. The
dance, consummation of many
weeks of worry and hard work by
the directorate awaits the opinion
of the majority as to whether it
has been properly christened, “The
best decorated dance since the hey
days.” Decorators were working
last night and will be working all
day today at top speed to get ev
erything ready for the influx of
dancers. A large bandstand and

ments and novelty numbers. Dier
rickx’s orchestra, in its relatively
few appearances in Eugene, has
created an impressive following
here.
The programs follow closely the
garden theme of the dance in hav
ing covers in the form of miniature
gates. There will be programs
enough to supply 500 couples, those
arriving early being most sure to
receive them.
Unanimous support of the Infor
mal by the sophomore class was
voted at a meeting called by A1
Davis, president, Thursday eve
ning. Davis urged every sopho
more to be present, pointing out
that it will cost them nothing and
is really their own dance.

Frances Brockman, violinist,
senior in music, will appear Sun
day, January 13, with the Portland
Symphony orchestra as the fea

Miss Brockman will play a Vio
lin Concerto, by Tchaikovsky.
She came to Eugene about five
years ago and since that time has
been studying her instrument und

director of the University orches
tra. According to Underwood, she
showed marked talent from the
time of her arrival on the campus
and has been steadily improving
her technique through study since

to very few musicians throughout
the state of Oregon, either profes

A special appeal is being made
for all students who are going to
Portland this weekend, to make it
a point to attend the Sunday after

By BILL McINTURFF
The Oregon and Oregon State
basketball quintets, leaders of the
Northwest conference, will meet
tonight at 7:30 on the Corvallis
floor with both teams having an
even chance of victory.
Earlier in the season Oregon’s
four straight victories over Port
land’s leading hoop barnstormers,
Union Oil and Multnomah club,
set Coach Bill Reinhart’s squad
looking toward the far distant
Northwest conference pennant.
The ensuing slump during which
the Webfoots ceded three games
to the SONS apparently ended
when Reinhart’s proteges twice
nosed out the ill-fated W.S.C.
Cougars.
Comparison Difficult
Oregon State’s pre-season record
was disappointing. The Orange
five split even with Multnomah
club and lost two out of the three
encounters with the Oilers. But,
with a startling come-back drive,
the Beavers swept clean a two
game series with Washington
State, 25 to 19 and 38 to 28.
On the basis of respective pre
season records, Oregon would be
favored in tonight's scrimmage.
But on the basis of comparative
showings against Jack Fidel's un
happy Cougarmen, odds would
favor the Orange. Oregon managed
to edge out W.S.C. by a bare hair
breadth in the last few minutes of
play in both Cougar contests, while
Oregon State held the Washington
ians under thumb for the greater

Heifetz Tells of Enthusiastic
Support of Dog at Concert
Although the campus is lousy
with dogs of all denominations,—
from what have you to the bulky
Bruno— it is hoped that the can
ine friends of the students will
not take it upon themselves to
appear at the concert of Jascha
Heifetz when he plays in McAr
thur court January 19, as an in
significant little fox terrier once
did during a concert of the artist
in Manchuria.
Heifetz tells of the amusing ex
perience that happened in Harbin
during one of his recitals. The pro
gram ran on as usual through the
opening sonata, he relates. But
when he lifted his bow to begin
Schubert’s “Ave Maria” he no
ticed a restless stranger in the
audience.
The white terrier was wander
ing aimlessly up the center aisle, a
few rows from the stage. Natur
ally he had some misgivings be
fore starting. He hesitated for a
moment, debating what to do,
whether to tune up or have the
animal put out first.
But the dog settled the ques
tion by settling down. Greatly re
lieved, he began to play. One by
one the eight piano measures went
by without attracting any notice
from his four footed listener. But
just as he was beginning to have
complete faith in his little friend,
hr was shocked to see his head ap
pear, followed shortly by the rest
of him.
Heifetz, a sinking sensation in
side of him, kept on playing. The
dog walked slowly down the aisle
A few feet from the stage he
stopped, sat down and listened.
The seconds seemed like hours as
he stood playing, looking the dog
square in the eye. Just as the
strain was at the breaking point
the violinist saw the animal’s head
tilt upward an inch. He knew the
sign only too well and realized that
all would be lost in a moment. The
r.ext instant, the jaw opened, and
Schubert’s prayer was drowned in
a long howl. Heifetz stopped, par
alyzed. Another long howl fol
lowed, like a siren in a fog. Sud
denly it struck him what a perfect
living model the dog was of the
phonograph trade mark, "His Mas
ter’s Voice’’ and he burst out
laughing. In relief and amuse
ment the audience joined him. Then
half a dozen men made a dive for
the poor frightened animal and
for the next few moments the au
dience acted like the crowd at a
greased pig. Eventually the dog
■was cornered and carried out tri
umphantly amid great cheers!
A.S.U.O. Reorganization
Draws Approval From
Executive Council
Stoddard Remains
Old Assistant to Promote
Athletic Program
Coming a a one of the most im
portant developments in the pro
gram of student government of the
University of Oregon in recent
years was the announcement Inst
evening of the appointment of
Ralph S. Schomp, ex-’35, as as
sistant graduate manager in charge
of student activities other than
athletics, and the placing of Thom
as Stoddard, assistant to Graduate
Manager Huah Rosson, in charge
of athletic relations of the Univer
sity.
The announcement made by
Stoddard speaking for Rosson,
came as a dramatic climax last
evening at a banquet given by Al
pha Delta Sigma, professional ad
vertising fraternity, in honor of
Schomp on the eve of his intended
departure from the campus, after
one of the most active careers of
any one student in recent years.
The affair was turned from a leave
taking event into a congratulatory
banquet in honor of Oregon’s now
addition to the staff of the office
of the A.S.U.O.
Executive Council Approves
The appointment was author
ized at a meeting of the executive
council that was held on the cam
pus Wednesday, in which Stoddard
was assigned full time to the pro
gram for the promotion of athlet
ics.
Schomp will take over his new
duties on January 26, after he re
turns from San Francisco, where
he wiil visit at his home.
Of the new official Stoddard
said: “We think much of Schomp
and his successful work on the
campus and it is with great plea
sure that he is appointed as an
addition to our staff.”

Fred OHsop Granted
Athletic Participation
Through th° pffo-ts of Professor
H. C. Howe, University of Oregon
representative in the Pacific cocst
intercollegiate conference, Fred
Carlson recently had a penalty of
non-particinntlon in varsity ath
letics revoked. Howe believes the
interscholastic ruling which covers
this case is not well enough known
by all athletes.
The sports rules decree that an
athlete is ineligible for freshman
participation 12 months after he
has registered in the college for
the first time. Carlson, unaware of
this, played in a frosh game when
he came to this school after at
tending Willamette for a short
time. However, Professor Howe
arranged with the coast conference
for him to play three years on
varsity teams.
