STUDENTS ROUGH HOUSE
MOVING PICTURE SHOW
Throw Eggs at. Proprietor of
Corvallis Theater; Resented
Vaudeville Stunt.
A very exciting event happened at
Corvallis last night when several hun
dred students threw eggs on the stage
of one of the moving picture theaters.
The proprietor, who had put in an
appearance, was the target. A vaude
ville stunt had been put on at the
house for several days, meeting with
the disapporval of the students, who
declared it to be "raw." The night
before a crowd of them attended the
show and made things so- tropical,
the proprietor attempted to put them
out. Last night the students gathered
there in an immense crowd, and when
the proprietor came out he was met
with a storm of eggs, making him
look very scrambled. Two of the
leaders in the movement were arrested.
