Assembly Today Speaking seriously, although it Is difficult to do so with the lines of the one-act comedy presented at the Eastern Oregon Normal school this morning still in mind, the play was a farce. Under the constant strain of tho ridiculous, the four characters played their pfarts with seriousness and concern. Only an occasional smile, brief as a second, revealed that the actors were not living their roles, and the difficulty of control ling amusement while others were laughing. Perhaps outstanding was the por trayal of Miss Feversham, the secre tary, by Kathleen McClaren, whose acting was truly skillful Mrs. Prout the novelist (Lorcne Gemmell ) who may have had too much Imagination or may have been dreadfully In love, played her part well, crying hysterically several times. ; Adrian Prout (Frank Devaney), Mrs, Prout's stepson, was as un sophisticated as a child, in fact has a manner evident in the young. He was very deeply in love with Miss Feversham who had a passion for him, precise as she was. Dr. Gardner (Albert Hopkins) was tho most natural person in the play and he. too. was often struck with unusual Ideas. Thanks to the sec retary his proposal to Mrs. Prout was accepted. Tho play was directed by Miss Lena Foley, who announced It and the cast. Selections by the girls glee club were presented at the beginning of the assembly.

LA GRANDE EVENING OBSERVER, LA GRANDE, ORE. Legge Explains His Statements To Gov. Reed WASHINGTON, July 16 P Alex ander Legge has disclaimed In a let ter to Governor Reed of Kansas that ho "got hot about something" at the recent meeting in Kansas in the farm board's campaign for wheat acreage reduction. The letter, made public yesterday at the board's offices, said some news papers "seem to have tho Impression that Mr. Hyde and myself were asking the farmer to quit raising wheat in Kansas." "You know how far that. Is from the fact, the suggestion being only to raise a little less of it and give the consumer a chance to catch up with producers," the board chairman wrote. "In view of the further facts and Information that have been developed on this subject during recent months, I am hoping you will see your way clear to Join us in this request. In other words, . we are asking little co operation from the grower who Is tho one who will receive the benefit from any Improvement in the situation." After the meeting at Dodge City, Kansas, Legge was quoted as having said : "Tho biggest hog will always lie in the trough. Kansas Is now in the trough." This led to a telegraphic request for his resignation from Max M. and Louis Levand, joint publishers of the Wichita, Kansas, Beacon. Legge 's letter to Reed concluded: "Still another peculiar angle . Is brought up by your friends, Max and Louis, of Wichita, who are prone to speak for all Kansas, acting as if they thought they were the state of Kan sos. They transposed the words "Is Kansas" to read "Kansas Is" and pro ceeded to get Insulted about it. . - "It seems quite clear that you un derstood what was meant, as you were sitting within a few feet of mo on the platform at the time and appar ently accepted the statement in the spirit m wnicn it was maae. tiaa you though there was anything In the re marks disrespectful to the good state of Kansas, I am sure that you as governor would havo promptly pro tested rather than leave the Job to Max and Louie. "Since you have given out copies of your letters to me, I feel that you will not object if J pass this letter along to the press. "Sincerely yours, "Alex. Legge."
