THE OREGON STATESMAN, SALEM. OREGON, SATURDAY MORNING, APRIL 21, 1928
J
Pans Being Completed For
National Convention of
Women's Clubs
"I am (ratified and delighted
with the plans of the club women
of Texas for the forthcoming con
vention of the General Federation
of Women's club," said Mrs. John
D. Sherman, president of the gen
eral federation, on her arrival in
Washington from the west . and
south, where, according to custom,
she visited the convention city of
San Antonio and conferred with
the chairmen of the local biennial
board, Mrs. Henry Drought.

reputations for efficiency and
willingness to give loyal service in
the great cause of organized wom
anhood as exemplified by the gen
eral federation of Women's clubs.
I was assured by scores of women
that every effort was being put
forth to make this the best conven
tion ever held by the general fed
- eration.
"Without doubt the municipal
auditorium where the convention
is to be held is the best adapted to
our needs of any meeting place we
have ever had. I was assured that
the use of amplifiers will not be
necessary and after trying it out,
1 believe this is true. The building
is ideally arranged for the meeting
of small groups and for exhibit
purposes. In addition to this the
auditorium of the Y. W. C. A.
which is opposite the auditorium,
has been engaged by the depart
ment of education for the school
of methods in adult education
which will be conducted by Mrs.
Elizabeth C. Moriss, a nationally
known authority on this subject,
of Asheville, North Carolina.
"A delightful innovation is be
ing introduced by the local bienni
. tl board in its arrangements for
the reception to be held in honor
of the General Federation. This
will be held out of doors in the
plaza in front of the auditorium,
which will be flooded with light.
The program for the opening ses
sion, which is essentially a Texas
program, but is largely prescribed
by precedent, will include address
es of welcome by the chairman of
the local biennial board, the presi
dent of the state federation, the
mayor of the city, and a represen
tative of the local chamber of
commerce. To these addresses, the
president of the federation will
respond, and these will be musical
numbers.
Mrs. Drought entertained in her
home with a tea during my visit
for members of the local biennial
board and the city' federation of
Sau Antonio gave a luncheon on
the roof of the Plaza hotel, which
gave opportunity for me to meet
more than 300 of the club leaders
of the convention city. This was a
delightful affair, full of cordiality
and friendliness. I have always
noticed in my travels in all parts of
the country that in no section is
there as much made of the child
ren as in the southern states. Con
vention programs and other gath
erings never fail to include 'some
.Jateresting feature" by children and
jt&fctrlttncheon was no exception.
fVTM little girls, each dressed to
J eaent one of the nations whose
"t one time floated over the
present state of Texas presented
a little pageant, a verse of expla
nation was read by one of the
club women and each hild carried
the flag of the nation, later pre
... sen ting the flag to me as a souve
nir of the occasion. The park com-
mission sent me lovely flowers and
I was also presented with a framed
picture of the beautiful doorway
of the Mission Conception de Ac-une."

Francis Wanner, of Portland.
A new Eleanor Boardman
the featured feminine role.
A brand new male lead in
James Murray, erstwhile extra
man. who will never grace the "ex
tra list" again.
"The Crowd" has made James
Murray just as a single picture
in years gone by has established
other screen players.
Eleanor isoaraman has done
good work before in many Metro-
uoiawyn-Mayer productions. She
was lovely opposite John Gilbert
In "Bardelys. the Magnificent."
She was good opposite Charles
Ray In "The Auction Block," and
she helped carry on with the re
mainder of the principals in "Ex
change of Wives." but she has
never before been cast in a role
which has permitted her to really
show her wide range of acting
ability.
A slice of life, served from any
one of a hundred cities served
with heart interest flavored with
drama spiced with humor a
dish of America one of the most
human stories on the screen that
in short, is the essence of King
Vidor's "The Crowd."
This photoplay comes very near
telling the real history of the life
of the great American middle
class and it is a genuine "big pa
rade of peace times." The prin
cipal characters may be any one
of the hundreds of thousands of
Americans struggling for a living.
n,ieanor Boardman and James
Murray have the leading roles.
supported by a large cast of pop
ular piayers.
An added feature for the f:i
sfnore program today will be the
presentation of "One Dollar
Week" by the B & C players. This
is an exceptionally fine bill and
will entertain all.
POLITICS BOOM!
AMONG
COLLEGIANS
Candidates Being Hustled
into Foreground by Frats
and Sororities
Students of Willamete univer
sity are now turning their atten
tion toward the coming election of
etudent body officers, and politics
is beginning to boil more and more
as the final date for filing peti
tions draws near. Midnight Sat
urday has been designated the
final date.
Each year much rivalry Is stim
ulated between the various groups
on the campus as the elections
draw near, each seeking the elec
tion of one of their members to
the higher offices, the presidency
oi tne student body and editor
ship of the Collegian. Having
student body officers as members
of their fraternity, or sorority is
of much assistance at pledge rush
ing time, and each makes a des
perate effort to have its candidate
elected.
Joel Berreman student body
president two years ago, waa the
only Independent man ever elect
ed to a student body office, since
fraternity groups. Charles Red
ding, member of Alpha Psl Delta
Hugh McGilvra, member of Kappa
Gamma Rho and registered from
Portland as editor of the weekly
college publication.
The two probable candidates for
presidency are Kenneth Litchfield
of Portland and William Smullln
of Hood Hirer, utennem is a
letterman in golf and tennis, is
now second vice president of the
student body, and has been presi
dent of his class. It is not certain
whether Smullin will be a candi
date or not. He is now manager
of the Collegian and has been
president of his class and of the
Cubs.
To date Everett Faber of Cen
tral Point is the only candidate
for editor of the Collegian. He is
a member of Alpha Psl Delta so
cial fraternity and was manager
of the publication last year. There
Is a possible chance of Smullin
running for this position Instead
of for president. The editor of the
weekly publication receives a sal
ary of $100 a year, besides a trip
to the coast convention of college
publication editors.
Two candidates have indicated
that they were in the race for edi
torship of the Wallulah, university
annual. These are Frank Van
Dyke of Medford and George Poor
of HUlsboro. Both are members
of the Collegian staff and have
had experience in this line of
work. This position also pays a
salary, and a grea4.deal of work
Is attached to it. Van Dyke is a
member of Alpha Psl Delta social
fraternity and Poor of the Kappa
Gamma Rho.
Candidates for second vice pres
ident are Reeve Betts, of Athena,
member of Sigma Tau; Paul
Geddes, Roseburg, member of
Alpha Psi Delta: and Ivan White.
Salem, also Alpha Psi Delta. The
Epsilon Delta Mu is the only fra
ternity on the campus that have
as yet not entered a candidate for
any of the offices, but its mem
bers make it a rule to their pros
pects the last few days.
As a rule women are chosen to
the office of first vice president
and-ecretary of the student body.
The most probable candidates for
first vice president are Jean
White. Portland, Beta Chi;
Georgia Fairbanks. Pensacola,
Florida, Alpha Phi Alpha; Bureva
Culbertson. Portland, Delta Phi;
and Beulah Launer, Albany Delta
Phi.
The only candidates running for
secretary are Beatrice Lockhart,
Portland, and Beulah Wampler,
also of Portland, members of Beta
Chi and Delta Phi respectively.
The election will be held In May,
