Oleen farmer, has reported that he had discovered oil on his farm. Whether or not this will transform the beautiful Mt. Gleen farming section into an gil metropolis with every available foot of space used in boring holes Into the fertile soil of the Grande Ronde valley in search of the valu able fluid, remains to be seen. However, Lovelace has announ ced that he now feels certain that what he has long ago suspected of being real oil the kind that is piling up scads of wealth for John D. Rockefeller is to be found on his place. The history of his discovery dates back to four years ago. At that time Lovelace, who claims to be somewhat of a prospector, as well as a farmer, thought he found signs of oil. Until three weeks ago little at tention was paid to his find. Since then he has decided that the oil on his farm is the real thing. Sev eral of his neighbors also report that their farms have symptoms tsiilar to -those encountered on the Lovelace place.

SCENE FROM "SEN T1MENTAL TOMMY' Julius Caesar Successfully Produced Here Starring in the title role of Julius Caesar, Bernard Morse shar ed honors with Kred McGrew and Roy Skein, playing as Cassius anil Brutus, in the presentation of the famous historical play of Shakes peare last night in Waller hall by the public speaking department of the university. The play was given in Eliza bethean style without costume or scenery, the success of the play being due to the Interpretation technique that members of the cast showed.

The world's heavyweight champion to day was placed on a restricted diet and his eating was reducer) to two meals a day, breakfast and diner. How long this order of things will last depends upon the speed and manner in which he takes off weight. The order cutting Dempsey to two meals a day was issued follow ing his enforced layoff from box ing due to the reopening of the gash over his left eye. Lack of work with the gloves, his hand lers believed, would not make it possible fur the champion to nil uce as scientifically as had been planned, so it was decided to ellir -inate the noonday meal. Spectators who watched the champion worked out yesterday gasped In astonishment at his ter rific mulching power and speed in hitting. News Stories Still Censored By Parisians By Newton C. Parke Paris June 8. All cable mes sages sent from Paris to the United States, including both newspaper dispatches and ordinary business cables, are still subject to a form of Government censorship result ing in delay. So far as is known here no protest has been made by Wash ington, though the State Depart ment recently sent a note to the British Foreign Office conplaining that messages sent through Lon don were subject to British cen sorship and that American trade secrets might thereby fall Into the hands of the British. The French censorship is oper ated by the Ministry of the In terior and is described by the Gov ernment as a purely police measure An official from the ministry oc cupies a room at the central tele graph station. Before any cable is sent to America or any other country It must pass his inspec tion. Assurance was given the Amer ican press recently that this cen sorship, insofar as it concerns dis patches to recognized newspapers and news agencies, is only perfunc tory. "When the Ministry of the In terior's representative sees the ad dress of a recognized newspaper or news agency at the top of a dis patch he passes it for transmission without reading a line," the Amer ican correspondent was told. "If he is out at lunch or absent from his office messages to American newspaper go through automatic ally without delay." Inasmuch as a cablegram for America, filed at the telegraph station at the Bourse, passes through at least ten hands before it reaches its destination, it is dif ficult to check the statement that any resulting delay is not the fault of the censor. In addition to this, the French Foreign Office exercises a kind of retroactive "cesorshlp". Copies of dispatches sent to American newspapers are laid before the press section of the Foreign Of fice. The Foreign Office explains that this is done merely that it may be informed at all times of the nature of message sent by American newspaper representa tives in Paris without waiting ror their dispatches to be re-cabled from the United States. Carpentier Not Worrying Over Weight Handicap Manhasset, N. Y., June 8.
