I'renzicd Parade Through Streets

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.

OREGON AGRICULTURAL COL

Alumni are flocking into the city
in streams on highways from every
direction, and they were met with
a reception that many of them de
clared they would remember forever.
Th city reserables one in which a
Fourth of July celebration is under

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.

CLASS PLAY DELIGHTFUL
WASHINGTON HIGH ACTORS
SCORE BIG SUCCESS. "
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.

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-

WESTERN OREGON '
SENATORS REFUSE
Plan for Separate Caucus
Goes to Pieces.
EDDY'S BACKERS BUSY
Supporters . 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

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.

State. 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
