Kansan Reporter Gets Low Down on High Ups of Movie Stardom
Movie royalty arrived in town this morning for a short stopover on their way to the president's inauguration in Washington. Tom Mix, Lloe Carrillo, Lyle Talbot, Bette Davis, Laura LaPlante and others prominent in the film brought their most bewitching smiles while their silver plated train waited.
Thousands of fans including the American Legion and the Lawrence High School bands welcomed the star at the Santa Fe Station. Aloof from the rabble of those who sought a glimpse of their favorite actor, was a University Dilly Kanai reporter. When the straitjacket into Lawrence, were mowed by a car, La Plante is a fortunate member of the Kansan repertory staff.
Boarding the train in Topeka with his reportorial credentials, the Univer-
'Japan Is Fast Plunging to Doom'Says V.C.Nash
"Japan is plunging to its doom, and the price of its doom will be paid by the vast masses of Japanese who have no voice in their government." These were the words of Vernon C. Nash, who has for the last year been in the journalism department at the University of Missouri as exchange professor. Mr. Nash is also in the department of journalism at Yenching University, Beijing, China.
Head of Yencheng Journalism School Speaks to Classes Here
Mr. Nash spake in the journalism department this morning to classes in Editorial, Elements of Advertising, and Advertising Conv.
In his talks he said that the end of the present crisis in China would probably come within the next few months with the economic collapse of Japan. He said that it will be made will probably call upon Japan to pay for the damage they have wrought in China. The question is: Will Japan be able financially to pay? Mr. Nash described conditions in Japan as being very bad. The yen was weak and American dollars are american money, is now worth something less than 20 cents. In 1900 the population of Japan was approximately thirty million, now it is approximately seventy million, which is an increase over a million a year. Mr Nash said, that in his opinion, bird nesting is the solution of Japan's pollution problem.
"The Japanese attack on Shanghai about a year ago, was the expression of a huge monster striking out because it was carrying out an unfortunate strangled out of it," said Mr. Nash.
NUMBER 109
Mr. Nash pointed out, however, that before condemning Japan too severely, it would be interesting to see what policy the United States would follow if trouble should arise in Panama, or what the British would do if an uprising should occur along the Suez canal.
Federal Agents Investigate Alleged Plot to Press False Money
New York, Feb. 24—(UP)–Federal agents working secretly today were reported widening their search for the "higher ups" in an alleged plot to flood the United States with Counterfeit money manufactured in Soviet Russia. The task of unraveling the plot has been difficult. It has entailed an intricate investigation of various cities. Agents now believe, it was reported at the federal building, they definitely hareed the origin of $100,000 in $100 bills to Russia.
New York, Feb. 24, —(IIP)—Wilham H. Woodin, newly appointed secretary of the treasury in the Rosewell cabinet, said yesterday his policies until敛 off the debt were "mild wood and keep quiet." Besieged for interviews and his particular statements of policy on inflation or "sound money." Woodin received some $16 million and genially but flatly refused to discuss those or any other fiscal matters.
The counterfeiting was clever and executed on a big scale. The money usually was passed without question.
UNTIL AFTER INAUGURATION
Turning aside all questions on banking and finance he chatted pleasantly of his brief newspaper experience when as a young man he acted as correspondent of the New York Herald and London Times in the Near East, witnessing Armenian massacres and "almost going with Kitchner to Khartoum."
WOODIN WILL 'KEEP OUIET
scribe scribe was welcomed into the caravan of stars from a by a Mr. Selzer of the Warner Brothers picture company. The young newspaperman was accorded the courtesy due one in his position and to the various actors on the train.
"Will you have breakfast?" asked Mr. Selzer in the tone of a man who is used to command.
"Sure," answered the reporter, not to be outdone in clever repartee.

"Will you sit here please?" the movie
executed ask. "That's fine. Now, I
will tell you that you have a partner for
me."
Mr. Selzer smiled, then waved his hand to a passing, while-coated waiter.
"Miss La Plante, will you dine with this young man, yes please?" And of course Miss La Plante would not miss Miss La Plante in the company of a young undergrad.
Mr. Selzer turned and surveyed the car fall of screen beauties like a sultan making a selection for a visiting prince. Finally his eye alighted on the palo, blond beauty of Laura *a* Plante.
Oh yes, the reporter was Kerneth Sieum and he will be open for a personal account of his experiences any after midnight, if you can find him.
So it went, one half hour of pleas-
ant experiences that will not be for-
glected by the Kansas reporter for many
years. Ms. La Pine and many others on the
tour, not to speak or a life-like photo
of Bette Davis who caused every-one at the station to utter sight of con-
sideration. She had a morning for anyone, eh what.
Dorsey Post to Present Play Written by Crafton
Happy Landings' Cast Includes Several Hill Performers
Performers
On Monday and Tuesday nights of next week the American premiere of "Happy Landing," a show written and produced by Professor Allen Crafton of the department of speech and dramatic arts while he was an officer with the air force, conducted by the audition of Lawrence high school by Dorsey-Liberty Post of the Legion.
Every night this week a cast of about 40 has been rehearsing in the Little Theater in Fraser hall to make this presupposition more believable given in France in the spring of 1919 when a home armykid had to be entertained when the end of fighting had ended.
Professor Crutton has spared no effort to show the theater roars of Lawrence just what entertainment the A.F.E. provides for itself. The east is all male and has been hand picked and coached throughly. Uniforms have been nee- tored and painted exactly as it was in France, and the music and jokes will be the same.
Gaul, as far as the American army was concerned, was divided into three parts, the zone of the armies which meant the battle front, the S.O.S. which was the services of supply, and the ceiling, which in aviation terms means the sky, or that part of it that could be seen through the clouds of airy France. Those troops stationed at the front, looked down upon those in the S.O.S. and even the aviators.
Several University persons who have taken part in hill dramatic productions are in the "Happy Landing" cast. They are Professor Crafton, Professor Caldwell, Aberkerr, George Calhoun, Drillan, William Ingge, Farell Strawn, David Willis and Dacki Rohle Nucllex, Glaser Reynolds, James Harker, Glarner Stewart.
Several movies in recent years have shown the horror of war between armed nations. "Happy Landings," the title of which was taken from the salutation of fliers to others who were to seek the enemy in battle, is produced to show how the man took their hardships.
As a result, the S.O.S. was the barb of many a joke in soldier plays and so was the Y.M.C.A., welfare organization. M.P.'s who were the military police, did not escape from the sarcasm of the combat troops.
Tickets may be secured at the Round Corner Drug store or from any member of Dorcey-Liberty Post.
Dunleys to Give Dance Number
