RECORDS SHATTERED
BY COLD WAVE
Local Thermometers Registered
From Nine to Nineteen Below
Tuesday Morning-Many
Water Pipes Frozen

King Winter, in all his resplend-
ent glory, invaded Pullman and the
Palouse country this week, sending
the mercury almost to the bottom of
its glass enclosure and making
money for the plumbers. All records
for the past seven years were broken
Tuesday morning, when, at 7:30,
thermometers in various parts of
town registered from nine to 10 de-
grees below vero. The government
thermom eter at the college recorded
nine below, while several in the
downtown district showed IL and 3
below. The lowest record reported
was that made by a thermometer in
the residence district in the flat to
the north of the college campus,
where the mercury dropped to 10 be-
low. Water pipes in all parts of
town were frozen, and plumbers were
much in demand. Although the sun
shone brightly all day Tuesday the
cold wave prevailed, and 10 above
was the highest that Old Sol could
force the mercury to rise. Early
Wednesday morning the college Their
mometer showed eight below, but
during the day the weather moder-
ated and two above was the coolest
recorded Wednesday night
The cold weather prevailed
throughout all parts of the Inland
Empire, and at some places records
of many years standing were shat
tered 1t was the coolest weather
recorded in Pullman in seven years,
the 20 below zero record of the win
ter of 1909 not being broken.

DAMON AND PYTH|AS
At GRAND THEATRE
Perturbation of Story on Which
Order of Knights of Pythias Is
Founded VIII Be Showed
Monday Evening

Damon and Pythias," six-reel
perturbation of the story on which
the order Of the Knights of Pythias Is
founded, will be shown at the Grand
theatre next Monday evening, Janu-
airy II. Prices of admission will be
Is cents for adults and five cents for
children, and three complete shows
will be run. The picture is a $780,
900 masterpiece, and tells with won
derful accuracy and completeness the
worlds greatest story of universal
friendship. Under the reign of the
tyrant, Dionysius, Damon, senator
of Syracuse, was under sentence OF
death. The pleadings of his closest
friend, Pythias, caused a stay of the
sentence until Damon could bid fare
well to his loved ones, Pythias vol
unfairly placing himself in bondage
as pledge for the return of his con-
demned companion. Just as the
hour of execution approaches, and
Pythias is being led to the block to
suffer FOR his friend, Damon returns
and offers himself to save the friend
who had trusted him with his life.
In this story of true friendship ex-
listing between the brilliant senator
and great soldier is interviewer a
beautiful and dramatic love story.
Pythias is called upon to choose be-
tween the beautiful Calanthe, on
their wedding day, and his word OF
honor; Damon is put to no lighter
test in withstanding the pleadings OF
his wife and child.
Around this unparalleled display
of friendship the story Is woven, and
1900 people comprised the cast that
staged the story before the camera.
Spectacular, stirring, gripping are its
scenes; laid in Greece in the pomp
and glory of her greatest day, with
its colossal groupings, classic
dances, the thrill of the chariot race,
battles upon sea and land, eities
built and destroyed. and through all
this. with dram attic fire and touch OF
sentiment runs the story of human
friendship and its lesson of mans
humanity to man.

Attracts Attention of National
Association-Gets Important
Appointment

mittee, national intercollegiate bas-
ket ball association, If you please.

official notification Thursday that
he had been selected as member of
the rules committee of the national
intercollegiate basket ball associa-
ton, of which DR.. Reycroft of Prince

sition is one of the most important

lected the Pullman man for the job
The association committee meets
each year in New York to make
ball rules and Director Boiler will
prove a mighty valuable man during
the deliberations. The committee
consists of five members from the
biggest institutions in the United
States.
That Mr.. Boiler, through bis ex'
ceptional work at w. S. c., is being
brought to the attention of the best
schools in the United States, is indi
Gated by the fact that he has recent
ly received flattering offers from two
institutions, one in the east and one
in the west, for his services as ath
letic director and physical trainer
next year. Mr.. Boiler himself Meth
er affirms nor denies this report
which nevertheless is given much ere
dence, but he quieted whole lot Of
unrest when he said ~ am well salts
fled with w. s. C. and Pullm an under
the present conditions and am no
looking for other positions.
