VAMPING TO
TOP OF CLASS
Professors Aeitated Over Question of
: Whether Good Looks Can Get
Girl Very Far in
College.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service ]
BERKELEY, Calf, Oct. 90
Whether the eye brow pencil and a
peachy complexion are mightier than
the fountain pen and a high forehead
were questions which agitated the
University of California today.
The agitation followed the publica
ton of an editorial in the Daily Cali
fornian charging that pretty girls
with occasional resort to feminine
wiles, can "vamp" their way via a
professors heart to the head of the
class and high marks. $3.50
"The editorial is psychologically
sound" declared Professor Warner
Brown of the department of psychol-
ogy today. ut is quite natural for
an instructor to be Influenced favor
ably by a pleasing appearance and
personality"
Prof. Frank II. Probert, dean of the
college of mining, was inclined to
qualify that view a little, although he
admitted that a pretty girl can
'tvamp' her way into the good graces,
to a certain extent, even of college
professor.
"While it is true that some of our
men are susceptible to feminine
charms" Probert said, II do not
think that woman can get very far
in college on good looks alone"

NO POLL TAXES. FOR WOMEN
If Nineteenth Amendment Is Adopted
Very Soon.

Columbia, March 26.-Should the
nineteenth amendment be adopted
before the next general election, the
women will not have to pay poll
taxes in order to be allowed to parti-
cipate, according to an opinion rem
dered today by Samuel M. Wolfe, At
torney General, in answer to a letter
from Mrs. Eulalie Salley, of Aiken,
president of the South Carolina Equal
Suffrage league. Mrs. Wolfe takes
the position that, as the 'aw requires
the payment of poll taxes six months
prior to general election, it would
not apply to women because the law
permitting them to vote would not
have been passed in time.
The attorney general suggests to
Mrs. Salley that for women to be al
lowed to participate in the primary
elections there will be necessitated a
change in the rules Of the Democratic
party, which could be made with
slight modification at the convention,
which meets here on May 19
