world, and is confidently fitting herself for a
place in the scheme of things.
The costume change of the last three or four
years is typical of the mental and psychological
change. The college man who once wore slacks, cor-
duroys, loud ties and flannel shirts, has adopted
the conservative, smart clothes of the average bus-
iness man. The college woman has stepped half
way betwee the extremes of sweaters and flat-
heeled shoes and the elaborate short-skirted toilet
seen some years ago, and appears in plain, chic,
office clothes.
Less students spend their time in the motion
picture life in college and more at a library table.
The change is radical and significant. A greater
leveling seems to have taken place. The intense
study fiend with horn-rimmed glasses and the
casual play-boy have slipped together and blurred
the traditional picture of American student life.
The hot-cha has blended with the sensible, and the
present-day college man, while he can dance and
drink with the rest of them, has learned to view
the world with more sophistication through glasses
less rose-tinted. He has grown up.

Uey Loig,
Loose Again.. .
JUEY LONG is at it again! That
H man isn't happy unless he is caus-
ing some sort of trouble and getting his name on
all the front pages in the country.
This time he is fighting again, but instead o
getting punched in the nose as he did last summer,
he's sticking his tongue out at the constituted
legal authority of Louisiana.
They're going to have an election in Louisiana
before long and the mayor of New Orleans, T.
Smmes Walmsley, is a rabid anti-Long man -
as is most of the intelligent element in the state.
Ergo, Huey had the governor, one of Long's sup-
porters, order the National Guard to New Orleans
to "supervise" the registrations for the election.
That made Mayr Walmsley pretty mad so he
got a court order demanding that the National
Guardsmen leave, but the governor, under Huey's
ol'ders, refused.
Another crisis in the situation arose when a
new police comnission, authorized by the state
legislature which is completely under the thumb
cf Long, was due to take office. Mayor Walmsley
obtained a court order directing 'that the commis-
.ion could not function, but, like everyone else, he
couldn't tell what the United States senator from
Louisiana might do, and he was afraid that Huey
might use his National Guardsmen to take over
the offices by force. If that happened the mayor
was prepared to protect his building with New
Orlean's police force.
So now the "Battle of New Orleans" has reached
an impasse. Huey has moved to the governor's
mansion in Baton Rouge but has left his army of
500 in Jackson Barracks in New Orleans while
Mayor Walmsley is still sitting in the City Hall
surrounded by 1,400 policemen, fuming.
The situation is, in short, unbelievable for a
civilized state. It is a contest between the worst
type of machine politics, exemplified by the Long
faction, and the intelligent minority which is prac-
tically powerless because the senator controls most
of the governmental agencies.
There is a growing anti-Long sentiment in
Louisiana which may eventually break down his
machine but it will be no easy task. Each city and
county in the state will have to overturn the local
hierarchy which has been built up over a course of
years by the use of political patronage.' The re-
form movement can do little without the state
legislature to back it and the legislature is now
pro-Long.
What Louisiana needs is a few more Walmsleys
and a few less political syncophants like Governor
0. K. Allen; then perhaps, the voters of the state
could be shown just exactly what kind of leader-
ship they have been under for the past years.
Then, perhaps, Huey will descend to the oblivion
he deserves and will leave the front pages of the
news.
The New Deal
College Student. .
THE ROLLICKING, NOISY, coon-
skinned college boy of fiction, once
of actual fact, has slipped away in company with
a half dozen other cherished American traditions
through the years of depression. Out of the mo-

rass of the last few years comes a new kind of col-
lege student, the new deal in the university trained
man or woman.
In pace of a lavish happy-go-luckiness, there
has come a shrewd appreciation for the affairs of
the world. Chastened by economic troubles at
home and by the disturbing thought of what is
likely to be his lot after his student days are over,
the typical college man of today has taken to
reading the front page, after a decade's diet of the
comics. The college woman has discovered that

kling, fast-moving entertainment not often-
equalled in the cinema.
The plot concerns the activities of a famous
German sky, Miss Loy, who, instead of spying on
the enemy as most spies do, chooses to spy on
friendly officials, suspected of treason and other
such things. On occasion they even spy on spies,
which, however complicated it may sound, is an c
actuality. It's commonly known as counter-espion- v
age. i
Miss Loy is assigned to investigate the activities t
of Ali Bey, commander of the Dardanelles defense,
who is suspected of selling war secrets. So she8
goes to Turkey where most of the action occurs.f
Her mission is complicated when she falls in love
with George Brent, an American medical student, f
who follows her to Stamboul. Complicated, we say, 1
because love and spying notoriously don't mix. t
He, however, does not know that she is a spy -
and this complicates matters even further. As her
secretary she uses him in the fulfillment of her
mission.
The best scenes take place between Brent and
Miss Loy on the train to Stamboul. She tries to
make him leave, but he persistently turns up when
she least expects it. When the train is bombed
and several passengers injured, he becomes the
hero of the day because of his medical assistance.
Then he lets Miss Loy chase him for awhile.
Miss Loy is especially good at light, bantering,
Noel Cowardish dialogue and Mr. Brent isn't bad at
it either. In this he almost approaches William
Powell, who co-starred with Miss Loy in "The Thin
Man." There is quite a bit of it in the show, which
accounts largely for its entertainment value.
Included in the shorter attractions is a news-
reel in which neither President Roosevelt nor his
family appears, a Charlie Chase comedy, amusingly
different, and some light opera renditions on the
organ by Paul Tompkins. -C.A.B.
AT THE MAJESTIC TODAY
"HAROLD TEEN"
The characters of Carl Ed's comic strip, "Harold
Teen," well-known to all newspaper readers will be
brought to life on the screen of the Majestic
theatre today in the picture by the same title.
Hal LeRoy, Broadway musical comedy star, was
sent to Hollywood by Warner Brothers especially
to play the title role. In addition to acting in the
leading role, he does some of the specialty dancing
for which he is prominent.
Rochelle Hudson as Lillums and Patricia Ellis
as Mimi share honors in the feminine leads as well
as being rivals for the love of Harold.
Douglas Dumbrille, on the other hand, is the
wealthy banker, "H. H." Snatcher, who is Harold's
rival for Lillums and comes near to smashing the
youthful romnance.
Others in the cast include Guy Kibbee as Pa
Lovewell, Clara Blandick as Mrs. Lovewell, Hugh
Herbert in the role of director of the show given
by the Junior League, Hobart Cavanaugh as Pop,
Chic Chandler, as Lilacs, Eddie Tamblyn as Sha-
dow, Mayo Methot as Sally, Richard Carle as
Parmelee, and Charles Wilson as McKinney.
While the picture is not a musical there are sev-
eral song numbers in addition to the dance spe-
cialties, sung by members of the cast. The picture
was directed by Murray Roth.

(By Associated Press)
Gov. Floyd B. Olson's attempt to
rminate the Minneapolis truck
rivers' strike by closing the streets to
holdout" employers brought the
uck owners into Federal Court Mon-
ay in a vigorous counter-attack.
They requested an injunction
gainst the new edict and against the
jovernor's rule by martial law, calling
he edict unconstitutional, and the
nartial rule unnecessary. Meanwhile,
nany permits were granted to ve-
idles carrying necessities, including
ewspapers.
But all traffic was by permission
nd permission was available only
o employers who had subscribed to
he peace terms laid down by Fed-
ral mediators or who were exempt
rom the ruling.
As police guarded against trouble
n the Alabama textile strike, fearing
eprisals from the strikers for the ab-
duction of John Dean, their field gen-
eral, it was announced that a warrant
had been issued for one of the two
kidnapers and a grand jury investig'a-
ion was promised at Huntsville, cen-
ter of the strike area.
There was normal activity once
more in the Chicago stockyards,
ocked by a strike since July 24. Some
1,200 drivers went back to work, han-
dling fairly heavy shipments of stock,
under an agreement negotiated by
Gen. Hugh S. Johnson, NRA chief.
Jap Birth Rate
SStill Problem
TOKIO. Aug. 6. - (P) - The pace
at which Japan's population is in-
creasing slackened a little in1933 but
not enough to remove it from the
category of one of the world's most
troublesome economic problems.
The government's statistics bureau
announced that the annual increase,
which for 1932 passed the million
mark for the first time and reached
1,007,868, last year receded to 927,209
in 1933. The birth rate fell from 32.92
per 1,000 in 1932 to 31.55, while the
deathi rate rose from 17.72 to 17.76.
Birth and death rates in Japan are
much higher than in most occidental
countries. America's 1931 birth rate,
for example, was 18 per 1,000 and her
death rate 11.1.

Summer Camps
THE UNIVERSITY
FRESH AIR CAMP
By HENRY S. CURTIS
The University Camp is located in Livingstone
County on the west side of Patterson Lake just
over the northwest county line of Washtenaw.
The site of 180 acres was given by Messrs. Ives
and Erhart and constitutes the area lying between
Base, Mud and Patterson lakes. The land is mostly
woods with a nice stand of white oak timber inter-
spersed with other trees; it is adjacent to the Col.
George game preserve of 1296 acres which belongs
to the University and is under the direction of
the department of biology.
Patterson Lake, of about 80 acres, is a popular
resort with many cottages. The shore is largely
high but often with a low border. There is a con-
siderable marshy area just below the camp. Only
about a hundred yards of the shore line of the
camp is developed and used for bathing. The beach
is rather mirey, and the water far from clear. There
are a good many mosquitoes.
The camp itself occupies the high cleared area
above the lake. There is a director's house, a mess
hall and eleven cottages, painted a dull red, a color
that does not harmonize well with the surround-
ings. For some months the government has been
at work constructing a recreation hall, library and
office building, but as the men work only three
days a week, the project it moving slowly.
The equipment consists of a crafts building, a
baseball diamond, a basket ball court, a tennis
court, and a children's playground. On the lake
is a diving tower, a life boat, given by Henry
Ford, and several row boats.
The title to the University Camp is held by the
Students' Christian Association. They undertake
the responsibility for its maintenance and raise
the money by holding a tag day, by an entertain-
ment in Hill Auditorium, and from gifts. The camp
provides for 120 children of ages ranging from
10 to, 15. The campers are all supposed to be
underprivileged or delinquent children. Approxi-
mately one-half of them come from Ann Arbor
and one-half from the city of Detroit. They pay
one dollar a week toward the expenses of the
camp.
The children come to the camp for two four-
week periods. The program beside swimming and
games provides for nature study and arts and
crafts. The camp is the only one in this area that
has an ample background of forest, with an oppor-
tunity for nature trails and similar activities. The
woods contain a- considerable low undergrowth,
which promotes mosquitoes and restricts activity,
but induces the nesting of pheasants and other
birds. A few goats would improve the woods for
play purposes.
