NIGHT EDITOR-J. CULLEN KENNEDY
FRIDAY, JANUARY 8, 1932
in the nignt clubs, while not a howling success, nas
a straightforward manner and a true-to-life way of
saying things that make him seem real, rather than
just another actor. It is in just this point that Anita
Page and Marian Marsh fail so miserably. Both read
their lines just as if they we're reading lines, rather
than as though they had something to say.
We recollect that about four years ago when
"Broadway- Melody' hit the screen -as the first all-
talking musical comedy, Miss Page suddenly sk'y-
rocketed to a high position much like that now occu-
pied by Marian Marsh. Today she is almost forgot-
ten. People get tired of such large doses of sweet-]
ness, if, indeed, it can be said that they ever had
a taste for the ga-ga school of screen love. We notice,
incidentally, that Greta Garbo and Joan Crawfort
are both doing very nicely. Maybe that's because
they're bothi over eighteen. K. S.

WASHINGTON, Jan. "7.-It must
have been with mixed feelings that
"those war-worn democratic veter-
ans, Jamea 'M. Cox of Ohio, John
W. Davis of West Virginia and Al
Smith of NewYork, accepted invi-
tations to come down to the Jack-
son Day dinner and touch off the
opening oratorical guns of the 1932
campaign.
As standard bearers of their party
respectively in 1920, 1924 and 1928,1
they were the logical keynoters to
sound off for 1932.
Two of the three, Cox and Smith,
paticularly Smith, are figures in
the preliminaries of the 1932 race
for the democratic nomination.
Davis, despite the fact that he led
the forlornest hope of the lot in
1924, has not even been speculated
about as a 1932 possibility.
Long 'Awaited Chance.
But the thing that stands out
this year as not at any time since
the first Wilson nomination in 1912,
is that the democrats believe that
a real chance of sweeping their
man into the White House is at
hand.
Al Smith may have had moments
of supreme confidence in the cam-
paign of 1928; but" the other two
defeated but not dishonored stal-
warts probably suffered no great
surprise when d e f e a t overtook
them. They must have seen it
coming.
Certainly John Davis did. If ever
a democrat was drafted as a sacri-
fice to the necessity of keeping the'
party organization going, however
hopeless the outlook, he was.
With the roaring and discordant
echoes of that prolonged deadlock
of the 1924.convention in old Madi-
son Square Garden still rumbling,
he could hardly have had a mo-
ment in the campaign when he ac-
tually expected to enter the White
House..
When the trio #ather at the Jack-
son Day festive board this year,
however, they must be less than
human not to reflect how different.
might have en their political
destiny had the call for standard
bearer service been deferred to 1932.
Invigorating.
The very atmosphere of that din-
ing room will be surcharged with
a wholly cIiferent excitement from
anything any one of them could
have known as party nominee.
For the first time in all those in-
tervening years democrats are in
the saddle in at least one branch
of the government, the house. And
all the maneuver/ng to push intra-
party conflicts out of sight is an-
other tangible evidence of how
democrats 'feel about their 1932
chances.
Cox, Davis and Smith-any of the
trio may, of course, be recalled ,as
1932 leader. Yet each must know
that his chances would be brighter
had he not served before. That
sounds ironic, but it is true.

The freshmen are now entering the most trying
month of their college career. Ink many cases the,
month of January will be a turning point upon whichi
hinges the. furtherance or the end of their college
work.
With final examinations less than a month away,
sports and all extra-curricular activities should be !
relegated to the background in view of the import-
ance of "hitting" these final tests. If past years are
any indication of the average, there will be a parade
of homeward bound first year students immediately
following the compiling of first se'iester grades.
There seems to be no adequate remedf for this situ-
ation, its solution resting with the individual in prac-
tically every case. However, it might be well in or-
ganization houses and halls if the upperclassmen
would deviate from the usual procedure of merely
warning the freshmen, and demonstrate the serious-
ness of this period to them by encouraging every man
'in the house to get down to work. Such an example
would probably do more to promote study than any
amount of lecturing could possibly accomplish.
The freshmen of 1932 will be the leaders in the
gobelin tapestry, these are but a fey of the vocal
delights that impressed those attending the event.
Conductor Serge Jaroff, though of diminutive figure,
is a giant in musical stature."
The Don Cossacks left today for a long tour of
100 concerts to the Pacific Coast and return, most
of the trip to be done by auto bus. They appear here
on January 13. in the Choral Union Series in Hill
Auditorium at 4:15 o'clock.
Louise Nelson, of the piano faculty of the School
of Music, will give, the following program, Sunday'
afternoon, January 10, at 4:15 o'clock in Lydia Men-
delssohn Theatre. The general public with the ex-
ception of small children is invited but is respectfully.
requested to be seated on time as the doors will be
closed during numbers. Miss Nelson is a graduate
of the School of Music under Professor Albert Lock-
wood and after teaching for some time at the School,
spent a year in Europe for special study. A year ago
she returned to resume her duties at the School and
won distinction through her public performances:

New York-For many years this
nosey meande er has been trying
to decide whichtoffers the best free
show in New York-Coney Island
or the Aquarium.
Coney still is the most exciting,
but for good human interest drama
among the fishes, you have to go 1
to that circular building on the
Battery which once served as a'
concert stage for Jenny Lind.
An inquiry into the Aquarium
tanks revealed that fish have prov-
ed what men have been trying to
prove for. centuries-that the fe-
male is more dumb than the male.'
Take the' salmlet, for instance.
There is a fish, indeed.
The frau salmlet is so lacking in
brains that she lays her eggs on the
bank outside the water. Wherewith,
old pappa salmlet, in his wise and]
reproving way, comes along and
with his tail brushes the eggs into
the water so they can hatch..
Careful Courting.
It's a different story in the tank
of Florida mosquito fish. The fe-
male is about seven times bigger
than the male, and the latter needs
to be very careful when he comes
around courting.
For, if he isn't of the choice of
his favorite Amazon, then that lady]
is very likely to hand him a slap
in the nose that will roll him into
