TIIE MORNING OREGOXIAX, SATURDAY. NOVEMBER 18, 1922 BEDLAM IS LOOSED BY AGGIE STUDENTS Corvallis Deafened , by All Sorts of Noise-Making. CANNON STARTS RALLY I'renzicd Parade Through Streets and Great Bonfire ieatures of Homecoming Events. i OREGON" AGRICULTURAL COL LEGE, Corvallis, J"ov. 17. (Special.) Summoned to arms by the roar of cannon, the 3100 students in the Oregon Agricultural college and the hundreds of alumni already on the campus for the homecoming week end, snatched up horns, drums, dish pans, Chinese crash cymbals and every other noise-making device they could think of and proceeded in a body to turn Corvallis wrong Bide out. Not a citizen objected, but aided in the "painting" process instead, for all Benton county feels that this is the agricultural college's year for a victoYy in football over the state university team. Old residents of Corvallis. stared in wonder at the exhibition of en- through the city streets, columns of men whipping like mad from curb to curb, huge trucks and wagons propelled by hand carrying sym bolic displays, and as the din from the noisimakers deadened their ear-d.-ums, these persons declared that never before had the students "cut loose-' in that fashion. Co-eds had to be contented with blowing horns during the parade. Caravan Joina Parade. Ail irresistible force the auto Caravan from Portland, loaded with alumni -and an immovable object, the Beaver spirit of the students in parade formation met on Second street, but a chemical affinity ex isted tnd together they swept to ward the car.pus to light the rook bonfire that is held the funeral pyre of hopes of the University of Ore gon n today's football game. Bleachers erected in the armory served as a resting place for the stu dents before the bonfire was lighted. Here the winner of the national peace oratorical contest, Clarence Hickok, used all his power in con veying to the hearts of the students a final spirit that would be irresist ible. Martial music by the college cadeti band and singing of Aggie fighting songs, a speech by Professor Hewitt of the department of politi cal science, music by a quartet and a speech by Coach Rutherford roused the fighting liioocl in everyone pres ent, and Dow Walker of Portland, with a tale of some of the experi ences of the team of '04. led up to the singing of Alma Mater, led by Dr. D. V. Poling of Albany. Lyman Cooley of Portland and C. V. Montgomery, of Corvallis, yell leaders; then led the way to the bon fire, south of Waldo hall. Great Stn-k in Flame. Buiit in 36 hours by the fresh man class, the structure that went up in flames presented an imposing appearance. Fully 30 feet high and 24 feet square, the oil-soaked "stack" lighted the entire city when the four class presidents ignited the corners. The party of editors from over Oregon, expected at first to number approximately 50, has grown by leaps and bounds until 140 has been reached and acceptances of the in vitation of the student body are still coming in. Grandstand seats are ready for these editors and their wives, and the tickets will be given out at the luncheons in their honor at noon today. CORVALLIS GREETS ALU3IXI Great Reception Prepared for Old Grails and Many Events Billed. OREGON AGRICULTURAL COL LEGE, Corvallis, Nov. 17. (Special.)

OREGON STUDENTS IN RALLY Big Parade Is Held In Streets of ; University City. UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eu gene, Nov. 17. (Special.) The final rauy Deiore me Daitie witn ine ure gon Agricultural college at Corvallis tomorrow was held by the students of the University of Oregon tonight, whan they serpentined through the city of Eugene to the tune of "To Hell, to Hell With Agriculture, to Heli With O. A. C." The whole city was out en masse cheering the mob on, stirring up the accumulated spirit which has been multiplying in th nearta of the lemon-yellow root ers since the game last year. A howling, enthusiastic, almost crazed body of men and women tramped through the Eugene thea- and back to the campus, bursting their lungs in the excitement. The yelling and shrieking for two steady hours demonstrated the at titude with which Oregon is going to put its team on the field tomor row. Oregon is confident, and feels that the pigskin can be put over the Aggie goal line, as it has so many times before. LODGE TEMPLE IS READY Red Men to Dedicate New Bnild- , ing on East Side Sunday.

" Presentation of Satire of Frpthy Side of Life Masterful and Charms Large Audience. : Nearly 3000 young and enthusias tic classmates and proud parents and friends saw the January, 1923, class of Washington high school present "Dulcy" in the municipal auditorium last night. Audience and cast got real enjoyment out of the bright little satire on frothy life of this day, and it was fortunate rthat the class could get a place ' big enough to care for the crowd. Owing to the loss of the school by fire Mayor Baker and the city coun cil granted free ihe use of the audi torium, and the class must have realized a tidy nest egg toward helping replace the J10.000 school library that went up in smoke. "Dulcy" is one of those snappy, up-to-date studies of modern life that are. enjoying such a vogue these days. It scintillates with bright lines and carefully planned situations and denouements.. The cast handled their many opportuni ties like veterans and showed the results of careful coaching ancW were letter perfect, the only error being that they were even a little too perfect at times, a most excel lent fault in an amateur play where so many undergo a halting course. Dulcy, in the person of Ailleen Burrows, was just such a vivacious person as fitted the role. Her work, while difficult in its studied crudity, displayed real histrionic talent. An gela Forbes, played by Violet Faulk ner, was a winsome, charming char acter. Mildred Copenhafer handled the difficult role of Mrs. Forbes with discernment. The girls were exceptionally well clad and dressed their parts well. In fact, all the makeup and wardrobe were of a professional class. Of the men, Dulcy's husband, Clifford Zehrung, had the most dif ficult part, and presented it in ex cellent fashion. Harold Peterson as Mr. Forbes entered into the spirit or oeing a 4 in a gathering of young i iujks arm received a handsome as sortment of applause. Richard Nance must have devoted some time to studying his "scenarist" part, for he had it down to perfection, as did Melvin Stewart as the "loose nut." The great feature of the evening was the enjoyment that all were naving, from the dainty assortment of tulle-clad candy girls to princi pals on the stage. The management should be complimented for th ma chinelike,preeision with which the entertainment moved, and nrvt .nt. tie of the enjoyment came from the efforts of the Washington high school orchestra, under the direction of Harold Bayley.

I ONE B LL DEFEAT G SURPRISE E. Scrymgour, Prohibitionist, v Unseats ex-Secretary. CORNER ORATIONS CITED "Man of Fanatical Convictions, Raucous Voice, Violent Style of Oratory," iDescrlption. -, : LONDON. Nov. 17. (By the Asso ciated Press.) The election in Great Britain- with all its surprises, pro duced nothing which attracted wider interest and comment than the de feat of Winton Spencer Churchill, ex-secretary for the colonies, at Dundee, by the prohibitionist can didate, E. Scrymgour. With a.heritage of statesmanship handed down by his famous father, Lord Randolph Churchill, and his own native ability, he became one of the British empire's most pictur esque and forceful personalities. Mr. Scrymgour is quite as pictur esque as Churchill, though in an ec centric fashion. He is noted as the street-corner orator of Dundee and received much space in the press. Victor Called Fanatical. The Pall Mall Gazette ani Glob describes him as "a man of fanatical conyictions with a raucous voice and a violent style of oratory," then says "a little hot air won't do us any harm." Gratification has been expressed by most of the morning newspapers at the result of the- parliamentary elections. This was of course to be expected from the conservative press, in view of the retention of the con servative majority, but some of the liberal newspapers also have found certain grounds for satisfaction or at least compensation. They recognize that the outcome means a return to party government and the disappearance of all they most disliked in the survival of the coalition long after they regarded its dissolution as due. Subterfugea Are Gone. ''We are rid," said the Westmin ster Gazette, "o the- compromises and subterfuges which have made parliament contemptible," while the Dally News declares the election "has blown a'breath of clean air Into our discredited parliamentary insti tution" and rejoices at the establish ment of a "strong, effective and able opposition. The Daily Herald, exulting over labor's successes,, said it anticipated another election within 18 months and added: "If meantime we play our cards boldly and skillfully we ought to have a labor government without doubt." The Times regarded the results with dissatisfaction and said it de molished the last argument for main tenance of the coalition. The news paper would have preferred that the balance be held more evenly between the liberals and laborites but be lieves the country has nothing to fear and much to gaiil from ventila tion of the labor party's ideas In parliament. - , Several of the newspapers derived satisfaction from the fact that the conservative majority is not over whelmingly large, thus enabling the opposition to exercise a wholesome check-up on the predominant party. At the Theaters. Heilig. AN OASIS of harmony and fun was the minstrel show at the Heilig last night, and ah audience that packed the theater even unto the topmost boxes was in attend ance. Rusca &' Hockwald have been sending musical companies on tour for many years and making a finan cial and artistic success in their ventures when bigger and more pre tertious offerings have failed. This minstrel company is an ag gregation of excellent singing voices and the comedy is unusually good. One or two of the comedians stand out for individual talent and a quality of entertainment which would feature them on any vaude ville show. Of these are Tommy Harris, a pantomime artist of glow ing smile and a gift of naturalness. Another was Chick Beeman of inim itable comedy ways. The men are all colored and work with all the personal enjoyment the colored man takes in his' own singing ' and in music and dancing in general. The audience sensed the fact that each entertainer was also enjoying keen ly the songs and steps contributed by his brother minstrel, and the ef fect was contagious. J. R. Johnson, interlocutor, has a splendid, rich, deep basso and his solo evoked a storm of applause Bob Edmonds electrified his hearers with the exquisite beauty of his high tenor voice; Charles Woods and J. S. Reeves both were applaud- Since Viking Days cod-liver oil, now known to f 1 be exceptionally rich in the 1 1 vitamines, has been a means I I of health and strength to I tens of thousands. .

Two excellent comedians of original ways .were .Hurl-and Harry Nay, two of the six amusing endmen. Later the Nay brothers put on a clever vaudeville skit in soldiering with steps. Al Coleman and Lasses Brown, the latter of whom afforded great hilarity by maneuvers with his surprisingly large mouth, with Arthur Malone, completed the list of principals. - The olio was filled with vaude ville specialties, in which the com edy pf Frank Kfrk. as a musical tramp afforded great fun. and Chick Beeman's monologue was most amusing. A courtroom episode, fun on the levee, a trio of amazing young men dancers and plenty of new songs ana jokes rounded out the programme.

Add More Steam to Drive to Place Douglas Man in Presidency. Attempt to pledge western Oregon state senators' to hold a caucus, at the suggestion or me eastern. Ore gon group of seven, has failed. While this plan was going to pieces yesterday in Portland the ..support ers of B. L. Eddy, of Douglas, were adding more steam to their drive to place Senator Eddy as president of the state senate. Following the proposal of the eastern Oregon group that western senators caucus on president and that the eastern and western groups finally join issues on president, an effort was made to bring this about. ... Eastern Senators Foot-Loose. Only three western senators were found ready to sign an agreement and when others who. were ex pected to sign up declined, the three senators dissolved their agreement by mutual consent. This leaves all of the senators outside of the seven In eastern Oregon foot-loose,, save those who are pledged to Senator " Ridgley Direction of l II "1A V H Eddy, Senator Moser or Senator Farrell. The matter of geography has damaged the cause of Senators Farrell and Moser since Representa tive Kubli, of Multnomah, is now assured of being speaker. Some time next week Senators Ritner, Strayer, Taylor, Ellis," Den nis, Upton- and Robertson, compris ing the eastern Oregon bloc, will get together and vote their sentiments on president. The seven will go to the candidate favored by the major ity of four, so that there is no little lobbying going on among the seven. Vote Are Worth Going After. It is a bunch of votes worth ne gotiating for. Senator Eddy hopes to land the seven and Senator Moser entertains similar hopes, as does likewise Senator Farrell. It is quite possible that the seven may advance as a candidate for president one of their own number and some work is being undertaken with that end in view. . . , Abandonment of the caucus for western Oregon senators has given the eastern Oregon bloc something of a setback and one of the reasons for the failure is that some of the senators who were expected to join are, already committed to the can didacy of the senator from Douglas county, and pressure was applied to another to. keep out of the caucus as the backers of this senator want him to vote in another direction.

Beekeepers Hear Plea for Limiting Profit-Spread; Box Hive Target. The universal adoption of honey as a substitute for glucose artificial sugar food would do away with 90 per cent of the cases of diabetes, in testinal and kidney disorders of hu manity, according to K. D. Raker, who addressed the Oregon State Bee keepers' association at their annual conference at the chamber of com merce yesterday. Mr. Raker, who is president of the beekeepers' association and owner of one of the largest bee farms in the west at Goble, Or., stated that "according to recent experiments by the Colorado experimental labor atories, it has been ascertained that intestinal germs of all kinds are unable to live in honey, and the same applies to the germs of ty phoid. It is a noticeable fact that all honey-eating races are practi cally immune from these diseases." The meeting of the association co incides with the honey week pro gramme proclaimed for this week ! by Governor Olcott, and is held un j der the auspices of the extension college. Mayor Baker opened the meeting with an address of welcome. R. E. Besse, marketing specialist of the state agricultural college extension service, explained the principles of co-operative honey marketing. He pointed out that the pprsent profit spread of 100 per cent to 300 per cent between producer and consumer must be limited, as one of the first steps toward improvement of honey production and consumption in both I quality and quantity. The complete abolishment of box yon Herb erg . . i 4 v, -.. fir- . r. ,n i- -J nitfiirfi-T tirriitli hive -bee culture was advocated in the meeting. Speeches were made by Dr. S.
