" TO REFOREST IN Astoria, Jan. 3 Reforestation in Clatuop county will be initiated this spring by the Crown-Willamette Paper company, which will itart the work of planting young trees on Its immense cut-over holdings adjacent to Astoria. The planting in 1925 will be largely experimental and will con 1st In the resettling In cut-over lands of spruce seedlings taken from the forests. This method of reforestation has rarely proved successful and Is not being count ed upon strongly by the paper company, which Is basing its re forestation endeavors rather upon the large nursery which it has es tablished at West Linn, Ore., across the river from Oregon City. The Crown-Willamette company has entered definitely upon a pro gram of reforestattng the land from which tho ripe trees have been logged. The present plans call for the ultimate reforestation each year of an acre correspond Vg to that cut over during the same period. By the time the company has logged all of its tim ber holdings, it is calculated that the reforested districts will be ready for cutting. II TO PLAY BEARS San Francisco, Jan. 3 (By As sociated Press.) The four horse men of Notre Dame were riding along in the path of the California missions today from Los Angeles to San Francisco, a bit battered and bruised as the result of the rough ride they were given la defeat lug the Stanford football team on New Year's day but still eager to participate in the recaption which awaits them when they trot thru the Golden Gate tonight. Tho victorious Notre Dam elev en cast a flirtacious eye yesterday on proposals for a game with the University of California team which defeated the University of .Pennsylvania eleven on New Year's day. The tentative date was fixed as January 10 by the foot ball experts and for three editions yesterday the California public had would decide the football chnm plonship of the United States. The California players were ready for me whistle. Butin the final night editions Knute Rockne, Notre Dams coach, who had been considering the pro posal for a game with California all d3y, visited the Pasadena hos pitals and the form charts there showed Harry Stuhledreher, his quarterback, with a broken ankle bone in a cast, Joe Bach had a trained vet re brae and Bill Cer ney's two frjclurcd ribs, all evi dences of the Stanford struggle, which caused the Notro Dame men tor to shake his head. 'The football season Is over," aid Rockne. "I have not been approached with any proposal to hold a game in Los Angeles on January 10 and don't know who would make It." "Notre Dame came to the Pacif ic coast to p!ay one game and one game it will be. I'm taking my boys back to their studies and will meet no other western eleven." Graduate Manager Lute Nichols Of California refused to consider the plea of members of the alumni for a post-season game with Notre Dame. Nichols natd the Calif or la players have already forfeited Iwo weeks of their vacation per iod and It would hardly be fair to ask them to give up the balance of th?ir time to prepare for a fame with Notre Dame.

WILL. 432 State St Fritz Leiber In "Macbeth Heads Fritz Leiber, celebrated Shake spearean actor, surrounded by a large and distinguished company, will visit the Grand theater Thursday nUut, January 8, under the direction of George Ford to present bis remarkable conception of Shakespeare's powerful drama, 'Macbeth." Mr. Leiber Is recognized by the leading eastern critics as the ideal Macbeth. He brings to the notable role an equipment that is extra ordinary, lie has strong physique,, marvellous oice and long ex-, perience with the strirring part. 'Macbeth ' vas chosen for pre sentation here because it is one ct tie most popular of Shakespeare's plays. Judging from the Interest Mr. LUber and cuii"iny will be greeted with a ea .city bouse w.ien they appear tere. Mr. Leiber's conceptions are In the modern mood and his system of staging provides for a new beauty and through an advanced invention in mounting, the plays are made to move with almost the rapidity of a motion picture. In the cast are John Alexander, John Burke, Robuir Strauss, Phil lip Quiii, Richard Allen, Frank Peters, Joseph Singer, Harold Winston, Leonard Gordon, Ander son Lawler, Walter Jones, Vir ginia Broneon, Pauline Crell, Ger trude Linnell, Olga Lee, Margaret Pixley, Isabel Stuart and twenty others. This will be the only Shake speare of the season In Salem.

A new screen star who actually leaps into Immediate popularity s introduced in the interesting Metro-Goldwyn film now playing at the Liberty theater. The new luminary makes his initial bow in the title role of "The Silent Ac cuser," produced and directed by Chester M. Franklin and is pre sented by Louis B. Mayer. He .'s Peter the Great, a canine actor of extraordinary ability and appeal. The story of "The Silent Ac cuser has great strength and the rapidly moving, closely knit epi sodes furnish the talented Jog i with material that calls for almost I human acting, but which the an'. mal does in such a way that it seems natural and not trick stuff. lthough the main Interest cen ters on the dog, the human actors and the exciting story also grip, the interest. Eleanor Boardman, Itaymond McKee and Earle Met calfe are the featured players. In cidentally the popular Miss Board- man plays a youth during a part Nazimova and Sills Bring Famous Old Chinatown to Life New York's Chinatown Is a shadow of the past. San Fran cisco's Barhary Const is gone for ever. And even London's Lime house district, fumed by Thomas Burke's "Li me ho use Nights" and W. B. Maxwells "The Rugged Messenger," I as cnanged. But the movie will ever record their glamour. When Edwin Carewe was about to produce "Madonna of the Streets," featuring Nazimova and Milton Sills, he sent his technical director, Jack Schultze, to London to Btudy architectural setting of the Limehouse district. "Madonna of the Streets" is the motion picture name of Maxwell's "The Ragged MesGenger," and Schultze. having read the novel.

Reginald Denny, who won screen fame with his fists, i hold ing It hy his versatility. For It is a new Reginald Denny whom one sees in "The Reckless Age,' his latest Universal-Jewel feature which came today to the Grand theater. The new Reginald Den ny is a fellow of infinite mirth. The new picture, a screen ver sion of Earl Derr Biggers' Satur day Evening Post story, "Love In surance." Is a rapid-fire tale of an expected to find all the glamorous and underworld romance that 'e the Limelight of fiction. But be was disappointed. Limehouse was once just as Burke and Maxwell portrayed it, but since the war it has not been the same. The old buildings, the narrow streets m fact, all the settings have cnanged. Schultz, however, was able to copy the settings, and Carewe has peopled them with tho characters of old. "Madonna of the Streets, which will be the feature attrac tion at the Oregon theater ovar the week-end breathes the spirit of what was once Limehouse, probably the most famous China town in all the world."

The correspondent's statement. which the paper displays in big type. Is to the effect that Great Britain has assured Washington it docs not object to the United States granting specially indulg ent terms to France in repaying her debt, for instance an indefin ite moratorium, lower rate of in terest and more prolonged terms for repayment than allowed to Great Britain, only insisting that whatever payments France makes to tho United states shall be shar ed "pari passu" by Britain. "Clearly a now situation has been created." says the Post, "and public opinion In this country will give Premier Baldwin's govern ment the highest credit for the conception of such a bold and such an appeasing stroke of policy, for if America recognizes our gener osity. France will surely be not un mindful of the assistance we shall have been able to render to her necessity." WALL STREET USHERS IN YEAR WITH BOOM Jew York, Jan. 3.
