FOUR THE MICHIGAN DAILY SUNDAY, JULY 18, 1937 Agriculturists Ask Legislation To Aid Income Vegetable, Potato Growers Urge State And Federal Governments To Help Burned Luggage V to m WASHINGTON, July 17.-(P)- egetable and potato growers urged oday that Federal and State govern- ients enact legislation to improve their incomes. The recommendations came at a time when congressional advocates of farm legislation were divided over the method that should be used in the new bill. President Roosevelt went over the situation with Chairman Jones, (Dem., Texas) of the House Argicul- ture Committee during the day, but Jones declined to say what had been gone over at the conference. "I had been wanting to talk with the President about farm matters in general," he said. "We have several matters pending in the committee." Urge Special Quotas More than 60 representatives of vegetable and potato growing areas who have talked with agriculture de- partment officials during the week urged that special quotas be set up for them under the soil conservation pro- gram. They asked that they be al- lotted bases similar to those now used for "tobacco, cotton and peanut" )roducers. Potato growers said the prospect of 404,000,000 bushel crop this year threatened "disaster to the industry" They asked the Agricultural Adjust- ment Administration to establish di- version programs for lower grades of potatoes and establish a special com- mittee to work out a federal potato program. They asked Secretary Wallace to seek legislation requiring that allpo- tatoes moving in interstate commerce "be branded,.tagged, or described in terms of United States grades or as unclassified." Wallace was asked to seek addition- al federal funds to improve market- ing reports, crop estimates and price studies in the vegetable field. The group said vegetable growers should establish large cooperative marketing organization able to bargain on equal terms with mass buyers of their pro- ducts, such as canneries and larg'e re- tail store chains. Chance To Pass Measure Jones said his conference with the President had no bearing on-when he would introduce a long-awaited gen- eral farm bill but that he hoped to have a tentative draft ready for his committee's consideration when it meets in executive session Tuesday. He said the committee would have a chance to pass on the measure be- fore he formally introdutes it. House advocates of farm legislation at this session have split three ways over production control, though in general agreement with the proposed "ever normal granary" program de- signed to prevent price fluctuation. Jones heads one group demanding a voluntary program under which participating farmers would be paid cash benefits financed by a proces- sing tax. Another group is urging compul- sory legislation which would give all farmers marketing quotas in years when surplus crops threaten the price structure. The third group wants the Fed-] eral government'to fix cost of pro- duction prices on farm commodities; needed for domestic use and thej "ever-normal" granary program. 1 1 i At Paris, Mo., Prosecutor Thomas V. Proctor said Noel Newton, 26, above, and Myra Hanan, son and adopted daughter of the Rev. C. E. Newton, burned luggage they found in the Baptist minister's auto and recognized as that of Mrs. Dennis Kelly, with whose murder Newton is charged. New Cut Dance Draws Capacity League Crowd' Capacity crowds at the regular League dance last night took full advantage of the cool weather, the new open cutting system, and novelty numbers by Charlie Zwick and his orchestra. Earle Luby, in from Detroit for the week-end, danced the light fantastic with as many Michigan women as he could tag. Douglas Farmer and John Jordan acted as men in a stag line do in Eastern, colleges, and cut often. Bob Stuhr with Helen Marsh sat on at the Grill over cokes. COMMENTS ON CUTTING Harry Homes-"I'm in favor of the cutting system. It's much easier to meet a girl this way." Al Champion- I think they should have cutting at all summer dances. It makes for a friendlier atmosphere." Laura Zimmerman-"The cut- ting system seems to work better, and more people can meet each other by this method." Marian Shrier- The cutting system is confusing. It is hard to adjust to so many new people in such a short time. I dislike it." Janet Peterson-"The general concensus of opinion is favorableI toward the cutting system, I be-j lieve." Tom Kleene, former editor of The Daily, appeared to enjoy his evening at the old stomping grounds. Al; Champion and Jack Davies roamed; the halls, while Marlowe Shaw sta- tioned himself beside the door for close observation of the hostesses. Phyllis Miner, chief hostess, busied( herself with seeing everyone happyI and looked after. Vivian Springer approved the coolness of the ball- room and felt dancing was a real pleasure. Five Records Are Smashed At Princeton Cambidge, Oxford Score 7 To 5 Victory Over Princeton, Cornell PRINCETON, N. J., July 17.-(A)- Five meet records were smashed in the stifling heat of Palmer Stadium today as the combined forces from Cambridge and Oxford, paced by long legged Alan Pennington and the famed Arthur Godfrey Brown, scored a second successive 7 to 5 victory over Princeton and Cornell in their eighth international track and field meet. The thinclads from his Majesty's realm, exerting themselves only when the pressure was as hot as the re- lentless sun, won on the perform- ance of Pennington and Brown, who turned in doubles in their specialties, to give the British a 4 to 3 lead in the international series. One was a tie. Brown was the star of the two, set- ting a meet record of 1:52.2 in the half mile run, final and decisive event on the program. Needing the triumph to insure victory, Brown clipped eight tenths of a second from the meet mark set in 1933 by Bill Bonthron, Princeton's immortal track star. His feat gave him the race by a good 10 yards over his closest pursuer, Johnny M~eaden of Cornell who was passed like he was standingwstill with the stretch lying ahead. Brown also captured the quarter mile by five yards over James Ham- ilton Hucker of Cornell in the com- paratively slow time-for him-of 48.6. Because of Brown's perform- ances, Cambridge scored five of the seven points for the team. Pennington, the Oxford sprint star, won the 100 and 220-yard dashes, taking the century by good measure in 10.2 and the 220 in the time of 21.4. The other four meet records set were: High jump, won by Robert Kirk Kennedy of Cambridge with a six foot 31/ inch leap as compared with the record of 6 feet 2 set twice in the meet's history-in 1929 by B. V. Hedges, Jr., Princeton and Charles Scott, Cornell, in 1934. Shot put, won by the Turkish star from Cambridge, Ali Ifran, who threw the weight 48 feet 7 inches as against the old record of 48 feet 5% inches by L. H. Levy, Cornell, in 1930. Broad jump, won by Anson Perina, Princeton freshman, who went 24 feet 7%s inches before he was stopped. The former mark, set in 1934 by K. S. Kuncan of Oxford, was 23 feet 73/4 inches. The 220-yard low hurdles, won by Johnny Irwin of Princeton in 23.9 as against the meet record of 24.1 seconds established in 1933 by C. F. Stanwood of Oxford.

Successful Orchestras Have _..... .. i Different Sty By ANN VIQARY "I don't think an orchestra has to be good to be successful. It has to be different." That is the opinion of Will Osborne, popular orchestra leader and present Westwood attrac- tion. Chance decreed his individuality, according to Osborne. During a series of New York radio broadcasts where he used "Song of the Islands" as his theme song, he substituted a slide on a trombone for a non-exist- ent Hawaiian guitar. Will smiled as he confessed that it didn't sound like a guitar, but the many comments he received made him decide to feature it. First he tried it with three in- stead of one trombone, and then reorganized the orchestra, cutting out the three stringed instruments to make room for an additional three brass. Thus was originated "slide" music. The young maestro was born 32 years ago in Toronto, Ontario where he played in the high school band. In his intense musical interest, he left school and headed for New York. During the four years that he played piano in noted dance bands he met and appraised most of the men who now make up the 14 members of the band. "We were lucky to get an early le, Osborne Says! start in radio," declared Will. "It was that period in radiotthat established many present-day stars." The band features a series of im- itations of famous dance bands on its Westwood program. The inside story on that as revealed by Osborne, is that they are prepared to do about 11 nationally famous ones. "Some- times we miss," he confessed with a grin, referring to his ignoring shouts for Benny Goodman. "Favorites vary considerably from one part of the country to another." Will likes the snow business a lot he said, but living out of a trunk has its disadvantages. "Especially," he laughed, "when the trunk doesn't show up." He added that a normal life is impossible. "But right now it isn't the hours that bother me, it's the mosquitoes." 300 CHINESE GIRLS INJURED TOKYO, July 18.-(Sunday)-(IP) -Domei, the Japanese News agency, reported from Shanghai, China, that 300 Chinese girl workers were killed or injured today in an explosion in a Chinese powder factory at Chunking, in Szechuan Province. The news agency stated the blast occurred while 7,000 employes were engaged in mak- ing munitions "for war against Ja- pan." FRY TO QUESTION MEN publican primary.

Shirley was on hand at her studio to greet Mikhail Gromoff, Andrei Yu- mosheff and Sergei Danilin. She ac- companied them on part of a tour of the lot to see how the movie wheels go round. Eddie Cantor, filming a comedy greeted the trio and they grinned, when he attempted to explain what} he was doing. With the fliers, as in- terpreters, were Constantin'e C. Ou- mansky, charge ,d'affaires of the So- viet Embassy in Washington, and Grigori Goghman, Soviet consul gen- eral at San Francisco. Movieland turned on the glamour for the Soviet heroes, but they showed more interest in things mechanical E than in girls beautiful. When Shirley Temple met them, she exclaimed "congratulations" and was rewarded with wide grins as the Russians clicked their heels and bowed from the waist. Gregory Ratoff, Russian actor-di- rector, talked with the aviators half an hour. When they were leaving, Ratoff told them he'd look them up next time he visited Moscow. "I'll just ask for the Polar fliers," he said. "That may be many people," said Gromoff significantly._ TYPEWRITERS FOUNTAIN PENS Studenf Supplies .
