Has Dope on Dopey Dates Correctly
CORVALUS, Jan. 14 (AP) Some "don'ts for the

were listed today for Oregon State college males.
Miss Cronemiller's opinions were gathered on what col
lege gals consider "lousy male dates."
They are :
"Don't make the girl decldeO
'what are we going to do tonight?'
She doesn't know the state of
your pocketbook.
"Don't try to appear sophisti
cated by bragging on how much
you can down. That's an awful
boner.
"Don't ask, 'what grade aver
age did you make?'
"Don't give her a line she
probably has heard it all from
the girls you had out last week.
"Don't think you're too stu
pendous. - .
"Don't mak off-color remarks.
"Don't think you can't have any
tun unless you are swacked.
. "Don't be too smooth looking
or acting it makes the girl sus
pect a flaw somewhere. Don't
come dressed like a farmer,
either.
"Don't be a 'Joe college' It
only shows how young you really
are."

five representatives of the" fed-:

ous times last week, headed by a
member of r Its general counsel
Uff front Washington. DC, &
inac on or two or these men will
be in 8alem this week when, the
governor's special messars on the
proposed amendment reaches the
legislature. On their first visits.
they came more or less incognito
and conferred with members of
the commission and .others. - - -
Bearing In mind that this entire
Issue was raised, not aa a matter
havlngAo do. with unemployment
compensation bat with the picket
ing law, the Question now arises
as to. whether labor's strength in
the legislature will be marshaled
to oppose the amendment, for fear
that this weapon -will be ruined.
Certainly that was, the thought in
the minds of the labor - officials
who visited the governor Satur
day. However, sentiment among an
undetermined number of legisla
tors is Inclined toward repeal of
the state compensation act in case
the amendment is passed and the
social security board still falls to
certify the law. If the law were
repealed, employers would still
pay a 3 per cent payroll tax to
the federal government and none
of it would come back into the
form of benefits to Oregon's un
employed. But otherwise, the tax
would be 6.7 per cent and on top
of that, the state would have to
miVa mma imnnmuiti tnr a A-

item in itself.
With the legislature quiescent
over the weekend, the spotlight Is
principally on the governor's of
fice. Governor Sprague announced
Saturday that he had requested
E. B. Aldrich, Pendleton newspa
per publisher, to continue as a
member of the highway commis
sion for a time and that Aldrich
had agreed to do so, although he
desires to be relieved .of those
duties as soon as he can be spared.
The governor has indicated that
he will appoint Herman Oliver of
John Day, now a member of the
state board of higher education,
to the vacancy. Oliver is a repub
lican.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 14--
Senator Schwellenbach (b. I
Wash.), who frequently has been
a spokesman for the administra
tion, proposed tonight govern
ment regulation of all exports of
scrap metals in order to conserve
national supplies of those vital
in war time.
The Washington senator said
he had drafted a bill for intro
duction Monday to require licenses
for such exports.
While there was no Indication
whether his measure had amlnl
atratlon hacking, it is known that
war department officials for some
tune nave been considering a con

w ii. . .
in mis connection, it was
learned that the bureau of mines
already has arranged to establish
in the near future a secondary
metals section to "formulate a
sound public poller.'
Licenses now are required for
exports of tin and tin scrap, a
metal which this country imports
in large quantities. Some national
defense experts hate expressed
concern, too. that the present
heavy exports might drain nossl-
