WASHINGTON, Oct. 23.-(IP)-
The Democrats for the first time in
13 years today outnumbered the
Republicans in the house.
The death Thursday of Repre-
sentative Fletcher Hale of New
Hampshire, a Republican, left the
lineup of the house as follows:
Democrats 214, Republicans 213,
Farmier-Labor 1, vacancies 't.
Not since Novemer, 1918, when
Woodrow Wilson appearea dram-
atically to the country for a re-
turn of a Democrauc congress and
saw a RepuoAurxii m ,, iy elect-
ed have trie ulii , ci in tne
ascendan~cy,, eveii Lmporarily.
khe present inecup, however,
will not last untin congress con-
venes in December.
Five' special elections have al-
ready been set for Nov. s to nil
vacancies caused by death. Twoi
are in districts normally Demo-
cratic and three are usually Re-
pubucan. Should they go as in the
past, the house lineup would be di-
viaed, witn each major party nold-
ing 216 votes. Representauve Kvale
of Minnesota, the Parmer-Laborite,
would retain the balance of power.
The other two vacancies present
more cirinculties, but uov. L arson
of New Jersey has called a speciaz
session of the legislature in an ef-
fort to supply another Republi-
can vote for house organization.

Allen Hoover, second son of the
President, has started at the bot-
tom in the banking business. He is

after a day's work.
Math Society to Meet
The Junior Mathematical Society
will meet at 7:30 Tuesday night, in
room 3011 A. H. At this time the
vacancy created by the resignation
of Ernest Gantz, '34, vice-president,

MENTAL GIANT WHO
MAY WIN BACHE
Enters Chicago University at 15,
Graduated from Grammar
School at Six,
Dugal Stewart McIDoughall's pro-J
fessors at the University of Chicago
say that he will earn his bachelor's
degree in two years instead of four.
McDoughall is far above the
average intellect. Virst of all he,
is 15 years old, which is pretty
young for a university freshman;
then too, he has quite a scholas-
,tic record behind him.
While the average child of three
was building houses with little
blocks of wood and hunting tiger~s
back of the living room sofa, Dugal
Stewart McDoughall was busily en-
gaged at reading. At four he was'
writing.
And when fnother dressed the
average child up of six and sent
bim off to kindergarten, Dugal had
graduated from grammar school.
READ AT TIHREE
LOR'S DEGREE AT 17
When this same average child
reached high school and contented
himself with B's and C's, this same
mental giant nad bagged an "A
plus" average at Arsenal Techni-
cal High school in Indianapolis.
But with such a great scholastic
record, McDoughall is not the im-
age of a bookworm. On the con-
trary, claim his classmates, he has
the hulking shape of a football
man.

Representative Ackerman, a New
Jersey Republican, died only last
Sunday. Under the present law,
a successor in that generally Re-
publican district could not be slat-
ed until January. However, Larson
wil ask the legislature to change
the law to permit an earlier elec-
tion.
The sudden death of Representa-
tive Hale will make it more diffi-
cult for New Hampshire to clos
the seventh house vacancy before
Dec. 7.

Wood Explains Steps
in Stuffing of Birds
Explaining the steps taken in the
stuffing of birds for exhibition pur-
poses, James H. Wood, prepertator
in the University museum of zool-
ogy, said, "first the birds are skin-

the skull being left in the skin. It
