Wednaaday -* Assembly ■ Hail- Bom to Love.’* The Champ,” King Vidor’s lat- sst hit is led by two stars, Wallace Berry and Jackie Cooper, ft tells a vivid human interest story of a former prise fighter and his small son, living in a border town where the ex-icladtator is trying to make a t ome hack The old fighter’s sacrifice to get a break for his boy, the great love of the two, and the vivid cliuux are surrounded by the thrills of racing and fighting. The oast includes Irene Rich and Ros- coe Atea. You’ll enjoy every minute of it. "Traveling Husbands,” an inti mate story of traveling men, achieves a new intimacy, a distinc tive humor, a whining pace that is different in pictures. The cast k excellent with Evelyn Brent, Frank Albeifson, Gwen Lee, Rita La Roy, and many others to make the p > ture an interesting one. "(iirls About Town." is all about two modern gold-diggers: their boy friends, their girl enemies, and their exciting life in New York. The big cast is headed by Kay Francis, Joel McCrea, Liiyan Tash- man. Eugene Pallette. and Allan Dmebart. Walter Huston, the Lincoln im personator, stars in The Ruling Voic%” an exciting true story of gangs and graft in an American city. Huston portrays hardness it self, a man frith but one soft spot —his daughter. The story has an exciting plot, with plenty of ac tions and mix-ups. Milk wart, kid napping, and polities are the life of this story. With Huston are Lo retta Young, Doris Kenyon, and David Manners. The “age of chiaelry” passes in review with “Blonde Cnaay.’’ A fast steppiag bell-hop with a weakness for blondes and a world-wise chnm bermaid set out to take the world for alt it's worth. Cheating cheat ers, trimming the big shots, until s great climax ends the adventures in a blase of action and laughs. James Cagney, Joan Blondel head the cast. You’ll find it plenty of fun. I ; ^ Doris Kendall, an American girl, is doing her bit in the World War by nursing in the London military C pitml.

Joel McCrea Paul Kavanaugh, and Anth< .iy Bushell lead the cast , . Freshman Architects * i < ^ Draw Holiday Card In New Class Work An example of a variation from rigid class routine is the work be ing carried out by Mr. Earnest Langford’s Freshman Architectur al Classes. Straying from regular r Class ProOeedure, they ar* delving into the arternfts to the extent of studying Christmas Card designing. Mr. Langford, who is the bead of the Department of Architecture, is teaching the tacb- mque of Block Printings, Litho graph Prints, pen and ink draw ings, and water color drawings, in the j.reparation of the tarda Hiolmry Students Add To Mweun Collect.oa HMwolWwt* Pwl I'uland. Ind.—Advanced students of the Taylor University depart- moru of biology have been engaged in a bit of sensational activity ae- coniing to the Echo, undergraduate publication. Several days ago stu dents mysteriously returned from aa all-day trip to parts unknown bringing with them hugh bones, tied to all parts of their aatomo- bile. Later they retaraed to the eam- P*** from another expedition with a truck loaded with two lions and * leopard, which have since bean THE PAN By Dl & McNeney The “usual reward”— has become quite a by-word theae * past few years, is fact, to com mon that no self-respecting “loet and found" advertisement is com plete srithout it. Recently, the finders of lost articles have had the sheer audacity to demand the “usual reward” for returning what rightfully belongs to the loser. Where and when Mich— an absurd custom found its birth is unknown to Qa, but it con stitutes the boldest display of downright nerve that we have ever had the occasion to notice. Can you imagine anyone. having the impudence to require some unfortunate fellow to pay a so- called reward for the return of his own property? Tat— men who are tui poaedly seeking culture and technical advance ment of their minds have shame lessly nursed such a thing through its novel stages until it has become “quite the usual thing.” The common rules of decency and politeness should cause us to look upon such an act so disgustedly as to cause its immediate halt. Although— extensive campus beautification plans are being laid oh' for the A and M of the future, all af- forta wfll be for naught if some means aren’t employed to pre serve the little sembience of landscape beauty that exists at the prtoapt time. ! \ ThoughUaea students— nre tisuamling small treat, hedge, and ta||png up sod at such a rate that the campus will be lit tle else than a barren field be fore loMf. All of us should take pride It) the outward appearance of th*, college, and do as much wo con to help further im provements by preserving those already completed.
