Earl C. Flegel
Willamette's most popular athlete who
will play the role or Kobin Hood in
the Junior Class play "Sherwood."
Probably no person is better fitted
than Earl Flegel to interpret the char
acter of Kobin Hood in the drama
"Sherwood" to be ' 'presented at the
Grand May 5. From the first day of
his arrival on the campus of Willam
ette University Mr. Flegel has took in
active part in student activities and
has proven himself a worthy hero in
many an athletic contest, in- the dis
guise of a Kobin Hood his sincere per
sonality, and ability to master diffi
cult situations is a faculty cap.ible of
winning nothing but praise from the
most critical observer.
In the green garb of a forester, the
adventures of Robin Hood, as por
trayed bry the lines of Alfred Noyes'
in the drama "Sherwood," are sure to
be of supremo interest to anyone.
His character is revealed by the
words "which is the disguise day Af
ter (lay, we put our social armor on,
a different mask for every occasion."
The respect of the common people m l
the fear manifested by the favored
ew towards him completely identifies
his name with the spirit of justice.
The development of the romantic
love that exists between he and Ladv
Marian is also a paramount feature of
the drama, for here the tics of lovo is
made all the more strong by misfor
tune that befall the lovers. Although
all of Robin's goods are ronfiseatcd,
and Marian's father Fitzwalter has
aroused the displeasure of Prince John
Thy still remain true to one another

Helen Holme, the. heroine in "The
'Girl and the Game," is writing the
I scenario tor the big screen novel her
self. Frank Hamilton Spearman is
; the author, but Helen says that au
thors have the thrills and try to protect
tier from the thrills their imaginations
1 paint.
j And she said she doesn't want any
: such protection she wants to have
the bluoskv the limit as far as tak
ing chances with life and limb are
concerned, us long as it is her own
life.
With characteristic earnestness she
begins her thrill-making in the first
chapter, when she rides her horse off
a bridge into the water after a mnd'sion,
race nguinst two speeding trains.
' Of course she wins. What heroine
wouldn't? But it requires pluck of
almost an unnatural sort to do the
thingj she does to inject into (his great
screen novel the lat word in film real
ism. No wonder they call her "thr
fearless film star."
To produce The Girl a-td the liunn,
a special studio was erected, giving
to Producer McGowun the groafest ir,il

Will Observe May Day
(Capital Journal Special Service)
Monmouth Oregon, May 1. On next
Friday, May 5, on the Oregon Normal
school campus, the annual May Day
exercises will lie held. The stedents
luve speent valuable time in prepara
tion tor tho different events ot the
day which lead up to the contest be
tween the different Normal school
classes for the president's cup and peo
ple are already interested to see what
will take place on that day. The ex
ercises are to begin at nine o'clock in
the morning with the judges as fol
lows: Miss Cornelia Marvin, Supt. 11.
A. Churchill and Prof. Robert Krohn,
physical director of the Portland
schools.
The regulnr work of the Normal and
training schools was resumed agaia on
last Tuesday morning after the Piaster
holidays with waicely a break in the
schedule and with nearly all of the
students in attendance.
Rabbi Jonah B. Wise of Portland
was the chapel speaker at the Normal!
on the Wednesday preceding tae has-
ter holidays, lie presented to the stu
dents the subject of teaching in its
broadest and noblest meaning. He ex
plained that a true teacher is not a
retailer of facts or a dispenser of infor
mation, but one who is a guide, bot.i
morally and spiritually, and one who
can stand before his pupils as an ideal
example for them to follow through
out life. The swaker emphasized these
various f.icts by giving examples of
dittcrent experiences in his own lite.
Last Wednesday morning. Miss F.tta
Huffman was the senior class speaker
during the chapel period. Her topic,
"Danish Rural Education" was given
in a very interesting manner which is
especially timely as it outlined a pi m
of rural education which may some
time in the future be adopted la the
United States.
There will be an excursion train
leave Monmouth Saturday evening at
7:.'10 to attend the entertainment to
be given by the University of Oregon
Women's Gleo club in tho opera house
at Independence. The event has
aroused much interest on the part of
students and uo doubt a great number
will attend.
High School Track Meet
While the May Day exercises to be
given on May 5 will call a large crowd
of onlookers, the track meet between
-Monmouth high school and Dayton high
school on the following day, May ii,
is not to be forgotten by those inter
ested in athletics. While Monmouth
has the only high school track team in
Polk county, Dayton ranks with Mc
MinnvilJo as being the two best teams
in Yamhill county. The state record
for javelin throwing and second place
in the broad jump has been awarded
to Monmouth but Dayton also has sonic
very good athletes, esMcially in the
shot and sprinting. Joseph Dodson

the program includes everything from
a 100 yards dash to a mile relay.
The many friends of liev. Geo. ('.
llitchey are sorry to hear of his resig
nation from the Christian church at
Monmouth. A very strong effort was
made by the local congregation to hire
Mr. Kitchey for the next vear but did
I not prove successful as he has accept
ed a position as pastor ot the llovlo
Heights church in I, us Angeles. Mr.
Kitchey 'h people live at Orange, Cali

Tobacco Fhvcr
KO OTHER CHEV EQUALS IT
Nature varies the flavor she puts into
the different grades of tobacco leaf
and the best of all is the flavor of
choice red Burley that pleases you so
mightily when you chew Spear Head.
The delicious fruity flavor of a chew
of Spear Head is a revelation to the
man who has never chewed or who has
been chewing near-good tobacco.
For chewing is the one way to get
all the wholesome, healthful, appetizing
flavor of the tobacco leaf providing
you chew a fiigh-grade plug like Spear
Head.
No other tobacco can compare with
Spcnr Head in the wholesome satisfac
tion it gives.
You get more savory sweetness in a
cliew of Spear Head than in a whole
plug of ordinary tobacco.
And you get it in its purest form
for Spear Head is made amid the most,
wholesome surroundings, in a great,
new factory that's kept absolutely
clean and sanitary.
Try this rich, mellow, satisfying, pure
chew. Such a chew cannot be obtained
in any other tobacco than Spear Head.
