A movement haa been launched to relumburae college football play era from the gate receipts, thougn It la feared the exchange of cash will do something to "academic freedom." It aeema fair that a "tar halfback who consistently acorea tne victory touchdowns, it entitled to more than the cheers of the multitude, .and a friendly lap on the back from his coach. There was always a bit of Incongruity about an ace gridiron performer, cavorting before an SB0.000 audience, na then hitch-hiking home for Christ inas. e e There was a debate on the Town send Old Age Pennlon plnn at Balem Thursday night. The orator assigned to oroose the rainbow, came out for $300. per month for the old folks. He then proceeded to argue he wai right, but the method pro posed to get It was wrong. He did a good Job of lifting himself over the fenco by his bootstraps, wniie wearing no booU. e There waa the usual number ot auto accidents over the week-end, due to hootch, haste, hiuis, and not turning when the road did. Spring flowers are reported bloom ing in many upstate areas, contrary to the calendar.

WAR DEPARTMENT NOTICE (Oregonlan) And the reviewer of the re cent Junior symphony concert erred when he wrote that "even the comparatively modern 'Donee of the Buffoon' came off without serious casualties." Aa a member of the orchestra, I maintain that there were no casual ties, least of all serious ones. (From a latter). t A Portland Jury acquitted two youths, after they had confessed a heinous crime. The verdict was the usual surprise, and one of sev eral freak findings hy the well known "bulwarks of liberty." The district attorney seems to be well liked. As yet he has not been found guilty of the crime charged to any of the defendants he la prosecut ing. L. L. B. Here's your request: m,n famiionfo oAt, rerhsns you remember the old fashioned girl Who often la touted as time's flaw less pearl? Don't pine If your mem'ry haa faded a bit And dim Is the picture you hold ot the chit. She simpered and giggled when men were In sift lit And showed beyond quest Ion her thinker was light.

World Affairs Reach Crisis 'X'lIE Christmas season promises to be a momentous period in European politics. That time-honored expression of the Christmas spirit "Peace on earth, good will toward men" will be subjected to the sever est practical test in modern history, England can make out a certain case for peace, for her motive behind the betrayal and desertion of Ethiopia, is to pre vent a war with Italy, and perhaps another European conflagra tion. But not good will toward men at least not toward the dark "complected" gentlemen who under Emperor Haile Selassie, are now engaged in dodging bombs showering down from Italian airplanes. KJO, precious little good will toward the King of Kings and his ancient kingdom. According to the Anglo-Freneh plan, long suspected, but only publicly revealed recently, Musso lini will be given a generous slice of Ethiopia, if he will call off his war, and in effect the three world powers will divide up this section of Africa as they desire, entirely ignoring poor old Selassie's protests as well as his A SHOCKING revelation nnthiner new. rpnrlomon . c ' " " No, this surprising show-down, this unexpected dropping of the diplomatic asbestos curtain, showing the old boys behind the scenes engaged in the partition most as old as civilization, the old, old army game. That is the shame and pity of it,, that it is so old, when we had exppcted the world in the year of our Lord 1935, was ready for something new. WHAT does it all meant It means that at the present mo ment. Mussolini, with his air fleet, his U-boats, his mil lions under arms, willing to fight any nation, or nations, that dare oppose him, WINS. Tea that is the milk in this particular cocoanut. Mussolini may have been bluffing, but if so his bluff has not, been called. 11 Duce has made good. Mussolini stated that the imposition of any sanctions that hurt, an oil sanction in particular, would be regarded as an unfriendly act, a cause of war. The plain truth is, England does not want war, and is afraid to pursue a policy which' means war. France wants war against a country she needs as an ally against any future Ger man aggression, even less. So the plan is to buy off Mussolini, not, at the expense of England or France, my no! but at the expense of Haile Selassie! Can such a sordid, cynical and' from what has transpired before through the League of Nations, such a TREACHEROUS program be put overt That remains to be seen, and that is what makes the holiday season of 3 D35 such a momentous period in world history. IF the League of Nations and all it involves; if the various and sundry treaties of amity and peace, and all they involve; have been all along, and are today, merely a lot, of empty phrases and gestures of self-rightcousncss to serve as a smoke screen behind which the forces of militarism, and the SPIRIT of imperialism, still determine the course of human history, then j this partition of Ethiopia will be carried ruit, just as the parti- j tion of Poland was carried out, and a temporary peace will be signed. If this is NOT true, if the world really learned a lesson from the world war; if the League of Nations is something more than so much window dressing, and the treaties of peace, something more than scraps of paper; then public opinion in England; ami France,' supported by world opinion, will never allow this dis graceful and immoral bargain to be carried out, by their respec tive governments. They will be forced to abandon their plan, or retire. So the events of the next few weeks promise to determine Hie destiny of the human race for many years to come! (Continued From Page Ona.J gument, Justice Harlan Stone Inter rupted an Attorney to Mk: "What are the sanctions?" The lawyer paused a moment. Vis ions of Pith lop l a and oil and the league, confused htm. Noting his pre dicament, Justice Stone continued: "The aanotlone the penrtltlfs?" This brought the attorney quickly hack to the United States, but In a tone which seemed to say: "Oh, you mean the penalties."

The president Is telling the story to all educators who call on him. He usee it a an example whst has hivp pened to the American system of edu cation during the deiprmMon. A code book should be Usued by diplomats so that others than them selves will know whst they are talk tt about. Knr instance, survey thee elusive words from the toiwue of Nor man Dnrla at the London naval par ley: "Our objective must he to insure that, In the difficult and trvtn vears ft liesd . t he esvn 1 1 &s in ne of oi ir fleets, wblob during Ui put rights and privileges. of duplicity and bad faith, but nothintr new I of defenseless Ethiopia, is al he, proved suoh a guarantee of peace and stability, should be maintained by means of mutual agreement rather than by expensive and dangerous com. petition. I may say also that the United States, which la now definitely on the way to recovery from the ee vere depression through which It hea been going.

RF.VIV.M, OF Prom time to time we read of people being restored to life after they have apparently died. Bome- times the fact of death la quite positively assert ed, and the nar rator of the in cident estimates that the person revived was dead five mlnutej or more. Aa for any tucb estimate, whoever ha wit nessed a sudden death or any athlng like it knows that the few seconds while the question of death la being de termined seem more like long, long minutes. As for the possibility oi revivsl when death coms, I can't conceive It. But I'm young yet. Looking over old flies I find I as sured a correspondent, only seven years ago, that nothing short oi radical operation could cure hernia whereas today good doctors every where are curing hernia with in jections of medicine, without sub jecting the patient to the risk ot a major operation, "the risk of a general anesthetic, confinement to hospital for several weeks or loss of time from regular occupation. So l say I can't conceive revival of the dead. In the light of present knowl edge. Resuscitation of the apparently dead Is another matter. I believe that is possible, because I have done It. By means of the electrocardio araph, Von Hoesslin reported before the Berlin Medlrat society, regular contractions of the heart were dem onstrated for half an hour Rfter physiologic death. Physiologic death means that breathing has ceased and the heart has stopjied beating so far as all ordinary testa can show. The ord inary tests are feeling for pulse or for the heart beat, listening Tor heart beat with naked eat or with stethoscope, holding a mirror before the mouth to see whether vapor condenses on it from the breath, noting whether the pupils are wide ly dilated or whether they still con tract at all when a bright light , beats on the eyes, taking the body temperature, noting whether there ! is any reaction to any reflex, noting whether there Is still any blood How from wound or a puncture ot finger tip or car lobe, etc. in prac tice the stethoscoplc test ! gener ally relied on. None of the other tests is so significant. But as the electrocardiograph shows, the heart may still hnve life in it when the patient is apparently dead. NEW YORK DAY BY DAY Ry O. O.

In fact it U now clear that the doctor o; other person In authority who eanc tions discontinuing resuscitation ef forts within half an hour In any circumstance Is guilty of lndefen slble malpractice; sven momentary interruption of the artificial res piration to permit examination, treatment, or moving the victim, u unjustifiable negligence.

Comment on the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS f F you are latere ted at all In what J is going on In Europe aa you should be, because what is going on in Europe may concern Intimately what your paycheck will buy you must have caught this paragraph In the news: "The hotly -discussed Franco-Britten plan for ending the Italo-Ethlopian war wa mode public today in a flur ry of European antagonism. Having read that far, you must have gone on to the next paragraph, which read: "Publication of the plan's text re vealed that Franca and Great Britain sought to appease Premier Mussolini's desire for expansion of Italy with a gift of about two-thirds of ETHIO PIA'S territory." THAT is to say. France and Britain are SITTING PRETTY aa It Is. Aa a result of PAST wars, they have about everything they want. Having everything they want, and & result of the wars they have waged in the post, they have everything to lose and nothing to gain by ANOTHER war. All they want Is to keep things AS THEY ARE. UT Mussolini ISN'T satisfied. When the loot of the world war was divided up at the peace table at Versailles, Italy failed to get her share. So Mussolini is going out to GET ITALY'S SHARE by the simple and time-honored proceea of taking It away from Ethiopia, whtch Is little and helpless. In the course of taking what Ethi opia has and Italy wants, Mussolini threatens to stir up a general Euro pean war, and If a general European war should start Britain and France might LOSE A PART of what they have gained by past wars. O the diplomat of France and Britain aet out to calm Musso lini down and ao head off a general European war. Their Idea of calming Mussolini down is to GIVE HIM, without fur ther fighting, some two-thirds of Ethiopia's territory, whereas all he could hope to gain by going ahead with a costly war that might in the end be disastrous would be ALL OF IT. Mussolini, naturally enough, la ALL FOR THE SCHEME) Who, In his shoes, wouldn't be? ItHAT right have France and Brlt- " aln to give away two-thirds of ETHIOPIA'S territory, In order to ap pease Mussolini t ' Why, the right of the 8TBONG RIGHT ARM.
