DEAN COOLEY DENIES
RESIGNATION RUMOR
No truth in the rumor. Will
be eligible to retire under the
Carnegie Foundation this year,
but have done nothing to bring
it about and- do not intend to,
for the present. There is too
much going on in the Univer-
sity, particularly, in the college
of engineering, in which I wish
to have a hand to think of let-
ting go just now.

tion is perfected and a chairman elect-
ed, Carl Hogan, '20E, president of the

n the Oliver Morosco Stage Success
By Frederic and Fanny Hatton
_
S.
Rugged mountains and deep can-
yons form the background for the
scenes in "Told in the Hills," which
will be shown today and tomorrow at
the Majestic, featuring Robert War-
wick.
It is a story of Montana in the '80's
and is woven about a man who be-
comes known as "Genesee Jack," pro-
spector.. The tale is set in motion
when "Genesee" and his younger
brother promise their mother that they
will shield her ward, Ann Belleau.
The younger brother is untrue to his
trust and to save Ann's good name
"Genesee" marries her although he
does not love her. Then he goes to the
frontier where his only friends are
Indians, and lives apart from civiliza-
tion. Ann Little plays opposite War-
wick 'in "Told in the Hills."
THE ARCADE
May Allison ;in "The Walk-Offs," a
picturization of Frederic : and Fanny
Hatton's stage comedy of the same ti-
tle, will be shown today and tomor-
Fow at the Arcade. Appearing as
Kathlden Rutherford, a young society
woman, Miss Allison's hand is sought
by -a wealthy bounder, and a young
Kentucky mine owner. She under-
stands the former but does not love
him; her acquaintance with the other
ripens into a romance that is accom-
panied by excitement and uncertainty.
An imposing court scene, with its
action carried through in a satirical
vein is one of the amusing features
that comes early in the picture.
