ROOSEVELT ISSUES CALL
TO WANDERING LEGISLATORS
WASHINGTON — Roosevelt
came through as predicted yester
day and called a special session of
congress for November 15. Chief
considerations will be legislation to
stabilize the income of the farmer,
and to increase the income of low
jr-paid employees of American in
dustry.
All of which will probably prove
irksome to many congressmen who
are vacationing in Europe, Ha
waii, Africa, and other far-flung
points. In his fireside chat last
night via radio, Franklin Delano
said his recent trip convinced him
that there is immediate need for
important legislation.

BRADY GANG VICTIMS
BANGOR, Me. — Another no
torious gangster bit the dust yes
terday when G-men bullets put an
abrupt finish to the crime career |
of A1 Brady—the man who once |
boasted he would “make John Dil
linger look like a punk.” And the
bandit-robber was well on his way
to doing it.
4 Followed from Indiana to Maine
by more than 20 federal agents,
the payoff came when a suspicious
clerk in a sporting goods store
tipped officers that three men had
been in the store ordering large
amounts of ammunition and that
they would be back for more. Pho
tos revealed the identity of the
men.
They kept their word and came
back, only to be met by a barrage |
of bullets which nailed Brady and
a pal for keeps. The other gang
ster later surrendered. G-men now i
have only two more well-organized
gangs to hunt down.
PEACEFUL REPOSE
OF CORPSE SHATTERED
STREETVILLE, Ont. — “The
Case of the Kidnapped Cadaver”
would be an appropriate title for a
ghastly deed that was unearthed
Sunday in a little Canadian vil
Ij^e near Toronto.
Fresh earth tossed about the
grave of Hayden Pope, 20-year-old
lad who died last week, attracted 1
a passer-by. Resultant digging led
to the startling discovery that the
body was missing from the coffin.
In its place was a note demanding
payment of $100 for the return of
the corpse.
AFL TURNS DOWN
PEACE BID BY CIO
ATLANTIC CITY — Peace
making attempts by the CIO, in
which the American Federation of
Labor was invited to a conference
to seek common grounds for a uni
fied labor movement, were sharply
rejected by the latter last night.
William Green, AFL prexy, fired
back a reply accusing the Lewis
faction of “insincerity” and bad
faith in suggesting that both sides
send 100 men to a peace meeting.
W CIO Boss Lewis, commenting on :
the invitation issued from his un- j
ion’s convention at Atlantic City, ;
said “We candidly prefer peace,” :
but refused to comment on the re
jection.
WALLY, EDWARD TOUR
IN TRAILER-HOUSE
BERLIN — Germany's only
trailer-house was in readiness last
night to receive its first resident- '
travellers—the Duke and Duchess '
of Windsor. 1
The super-deluxe conveyance, '
equipped with bar, kitchen, tele
phone, and other conveniences,
was manufactured by Chancellor '
Hitler for the sole use of foreign
diplomats and other distinguished
guests. Wally and Edward will
tour to Groessinsee today . . .
From castle to trailer-house! Quite |
a jump in one year, even if it isn’t
as bad as it sounds.
CHINA, japan asked
TO COOPERATE
WASHINGTON — Changing [
America's slant on the Sino-Japan- ,
ese conflict, President Roosevelt j
last night told radio listeners that |
the United States intends to “co- 1
operate” with both China and Ja
pan.
His statements confirmed earlier
beliefs that this nation will try to
bring about a settlement “by
agreement" to end the oriental
squabble. Action will await the
nine-power conference to be held
ip the near future.

Rush Week Vagaries
Told in Short Drama
By W. B.
A play in as many acts as it takes to get through the thing.
Setting: a fraternity house on this or any other campus. Characters:
members of the freshman, sophomore, junior, and senior classes. Time
Df opening scene: middle of “rush” week, might better be called “hush”
iveek, time when all weak points and disagreeable things relative to
me iraiernny system are nusneu.
(Curtain) Rushee reclining in
biggest, most comfortable chair in
parlor, contentedly puffing on a
cigarette (courtesy Ye Actives, in
corporated). Rushee says, "Gee
whiz, I feel like a king. Cigarettes,
shows, everything I want . . . free.
And gosh, everyone calls me by my
first name already. Had no idea
college was going to be this good.
Mmmm . . . why didn’t I come
down sooner.”
(Enter sophomore, speaking in
undertone as he skeptically sur
veys rushee). “Gotta line up more
j fellows with a little beef. Be
damned if I’m gonna do details an
other year. Better get hot.” (Exits
hurriedly.)
(Enter junior, who smiles in gen
ial fashion in general direction of
the rushee, then mutters to him
self,) “Just gotta get guys with
dough this year. Gotta put the
fraternity back on its feet. Better
line up a few cars, too. Always
| come in handy.”
(Enter senior). “Nice looking
batch of fellows this year. Our
men are getting pretty cocky about
it, though. And too early in the
week. Oh well . . (with con
descending half-smile at rushee,
j senior walks out and)
| (Curtain.)
(Act the second . . . same scene
... Saturday afternoon as pledges
are being received at the various
houses. Sound effects . . . victory
bell clanging, siren going, horns
honking intermittently and a shot
gun being shot off every so often.
Curtain.)
Sophomores, juniors, and seniors
are all gathered around something
or other, can’t see just what it is,
but they seem very excited and are
yelling madly and jumping up and
down with enthusiasm. Oh, it's a
pledge they are glad-handing. O.K.
fellows, go ahead. One-two-three
all together now, “Congratulations.
Gosh, we’re glad to see you, fellow.
Let us take your bags. Congratu
lations! (Repeat three times for
effect, or something.)
Sophomore, aside to junior,
I “What was his name?”
Junior, looking bewildered and
very dumb, “Damned if I know.”
Senior, “Well don't look at me
... go ahead, congratulate the guy
anyway . . . who cares what the
sucker's name is.”
Pledge is escorted off royally by
the grinning actives. (Curtain.)
Act the third. Tuesday afte
registration. Actives have finally
stopped acting because . . . well,
after all, they’ve pledged the mugs
now. Curtain rises. A heap of
tired humanity (the pledge) is re
clining, exhausted in the big easy
chair. Senior enters. Pledge rises
as rapidly as his condition will al
low and bows to the senior, mum
bling something about “yes, sir.”
The senior look at the pledge odd
ly and says, "I wasn't talking to

you.” (In other words, keep quiet,
mug.)
Enters the junior, a disgusted
look besmearing his usually hand
some countenance. "A fine bunch
of pledges. Not a car in the outfit.
I’ll be (censored).” Meanwhile,
pledge has skipped quietly away.
Sophomore bursts in. “Where the

pledges. Never on hand when
there’s anything to be done. They
aren't so dumb, but . . . darned if
I’ll do details anymore . . Stops
as three pledges straggle or stag
ger into room. Soph straightens up
to dignified sophomore standing.
Features become stern. Speaks
gruffly, “Off your dimes, mugs.
What d’ya think you’re doing . . .
taking a rest-cure? Get busy!”
Meek pledges hurry slowly out.
“Y-yes, sir,” under their breaths,
“so this is college . . . some fun!”
Voice from off stage, “Quiet
hours, you mugs. Pipe down!”
Frightened, bewildered freshies
disappear just as club-swinging
soph comes on. “Now where the
(censored) are those guys . . . any
way?”
Senior chuckles. Junior stalks
up to sophomore. “Remember,
punk, those details are done or
else!” and he eyes the back of the
sophomore's lap most disconcert
ingly
“A fine bunch of pledges we
got,” the sophomore whimpers.
Something else (censored). Senior
in quiet voice, "I think they are
fine fellows, too.”
Voices from off stage rising to a
screaming screscendo, “so this is
college! (censored!)” and the final
curtain, or the end.
Lawrence to Head
City Planning Group
Recently named as chairman of
the city planning council for the
Portland Chamber of Commerce is
Ellis F. Lawrence, dean of the art '
school. The committee, composed
of 50 specialists in engineering,
architecture, economics, and law,
tias as one of its purposes the form
ing of a citizen council and forum
of city planning.
The committee is also studying
and preparing reports on legisla
tive reforms, recreational areas, a
ten-year budget, blighted areas,
and repairing of the waterfront
where the fleet lands.
Frosh Pictures to
Be Available Today;
Others to Be Friday
Frosh pictures for ASUO
cards will be available start
ing today. Sophomore, junior,
and senior pictures will be
available starting Friday.
Those students not having
pictures are requested to
watch the Emerald for fur
ther announcements, Assist
ant Activities Manager Vol
chok said yesterday.
Yeomen Get Pies to
Tempt Independents
Yeomen have ordered 80 apple
pies to be served with coffee at a
dessert next Friday night, accord
ing to Harry Hodes, president of
the independent men.
After dessert the Yeomen and
Orides will get together for a
dance. The hall will be decorated
with balloons. Special encourage
ment is being given to all indepen
dents to attend.
Both Yeomen and Orides plan
for a large membership this year
because of increased enrollment.
Debate to Precede
(Continued from paije onf)
debators will be aided by a sup
porter.
4-Year Document
The clause that receives the most
votes will be automatically adopted
into the constitution, which will go
with the class through their four
years in college. Next spring the
frosh will draw up a skeleton con
stitution for the incoming class.
The argument for the extended
suffrage proponents will be that
more students will become inter
ested in frosh affairs, a bigger
turnout at the initial class meet
ing will be evident, and that the
policies of 900 students will not
be directed by say 300 students -
which was the case for freshmen
this fall.
Holloway’s Reasons
Holloway’s reasons for retaining
voting privileges with cards will
be that class cards would not sell
unless voting came with the cards,
that thus activities might suffer
from lack of financing, and that a
definite class group has always
been evident satisfactorily in past
classes.
However, Miss Mohr believes
that activities could be handled so
that the enlarged class would be
attracted to buy cards to partici
pate, and thus add to the treasury
-furthermore attempting to make
the activities a paying proposition.
Late last night evidence of in
tense interest in the question was
apparent, with proponents of the
opposing stands organizing their
supporters to be present at the
meeting in full force.

On the tables where they may readily be seen, are books from the
Chiswick press, William Morris’
press, in London, the Merrymont
press, and Elzevir press, as well as
a number of other volumes of note

accompanied by cards explaining
the particular value of the volumes.
Beok in Vellum
One of the oldest book’s in the
collection and one of greatest val
ue is "The Truth of Religion" by
Hugo Gratius. It is printed in old
style Latin and is from the Elzevir
press of Amsterdam, founded in
1640. The book is in vellum, and
the pages are thick and crisp with
age.
From the Chiswick press, Lon

by Robert Louis Stevenson. The
pages arc elaborately colored and
designed and the words are beau
tifully spaced. Mrs. Stevenson
wrote the introduction.
Pilgrim’s Progress Shown
“Pilgrim's Progress,” bound in
vellum, is one of the beautiful
books printed by William Morris
in 1892.
A 1754 edition of Milton's “Para
dise Lost” with notes by Thomas
Newton fascinates many people.
The old English alphabet is used.
Infirmary to Have
Ambulance Drive
Latest improvement to the Uni
versity's infirmary is the new am
bulance driveway, on which con
struction was started this week.
The new driveway, which is be
ing built along the east side of the

proach, so that both side-opening
and back opening ambulances will
be able to approach the infirmary
with equal facility, according to
F. A. Cuthbert, University land
scape architect.

the baton each week. With his en
trance at the Royale, there dawned
upon Broadway the night-club era,
the era of cover charges and dance
floor entertainment.
Then came the first Whiteman
concert at Carnegie hall, at which
symphonic jazz impressed men in
top hats and tails, and women in
evening gowns so deeply that it
came to stay.
London followed in Whiteman's
rise to fame. Private parties for
British nobility, and back to New
York.
The Prince of Wales, setting a
new high for American social
scrambles, visited a Long Island
estate. Dozens of bands offered
their services free, for the public
ity. Whiteman was invited to play
and received $6,000 for the night’s
work.
