Gated by the creation, inside the

voters" in support ofsa president
who may be expected to uphold the
'best ideals of collegiate life and
the historic traditions of our

All previous attempts to organize
college students politically will be
overshadt we'd by the campaign to
be waCs5 this year to swing them
en- masse behind Coolidge.
while organizations of q similar
character" says n statement by
1tepublicsn headquarters, have
been undertaken from time to time
in prevjnsS years, it is felt essen
tial thst the movement now be
placed o1o q permanent, national
basis with q definite and uniform
program"
4 S might be expected, one Of the
L h first clubs to get under Wav
in this campaign, was The Ecpqb-
lican Club of Amherst" Similar
organizationS. however, already
have been started in more than 100
colleges, and the list is to he broad
ened until every educational insti-
tuition teaching mon and women OF

Ohio leads the list SO far in num-
Der of clubs formed under the Re
publican College Bureau. With j.
Indiana comes second with Il,

HAROLD LLOYD
IN GIRL SHY"
SHOWING HERE

In his latest feature Pathe com
edy, "Girl Shy,' which will be
seen at the Palace theater tonight,
Tuesday and Wednesday, Harold
Lloyd once more demonstrates his
remarkable versatility before the
camera. Lloyd s role in this new
fun-film is said to be so entirely
different from any he has ever at,
tempted to portray, that he debated
long time before tackling the
part.
The locale of "Girl Shy is for
the most part a small town, al
though towards the end of the pic
ture the action is staged in the
city.
Lloyd will introduce a real novel
ty to the screen in this picture, and
he has carefully guarded his secret
because it is his own idea and to
have it known before the showing
of the fun-film might rob it of some
of its appeal.
As is usual with the Lloyd com
edies, there is only a small east in
"Girl Shy Jobyna Ralston is
again seen as Harold S leading wo-
man.. Richard Daniels, Carlton Grif
fin, Priscilla King and Dorothy Dorr
are also prominent in the support.
The Valley theater will close to-
night with the final showing of Bus
ter Keaton's latest film 'Three
Ages. The theater will be opened
again next fall. 1t is expected that
the Palace Airdome will open soon
to accommodate the summer crowds.

most stylish second division club in

may not manage a winning team this
year, so far as pennant-getting is con-
cerned. but he has produced results
and that's a factGc in his favor as
n manager.
II Doak shows he can pitch as he
did at his best, the Cardinals will be
better ball team. However. there is
nothing to lead one to figure them
/ nthe championship class The best
guess seems to be that it will be a
three-cornered fight between New
York. Pittsburg and Cincinnati with
the Cubs and st. Louis pceking in
the first division window and Boston
and Brooklyn both struggling to shove
them aside. Naturally that leaves the
Phillips to bring up the rear but the
Pills are a good rear guard bunch
and will fight pluhkily with what they
have.

Sure Way to Get Rid Of Dandruff

There is one sure way that never
fails to remove dandruff completely
and that is to dissolve it. Then you
destroy it entirely. To do this, just
get about four ounces of plain, or
binary liquid arvon; apply it at
night when retiring; use enough to
rnoisten the scalp and rub it in
gently with the finger tips. By
morning, most, if not all, of your
dandruff will be gone, and two or
three more applications will COM
pletely dissolve and entirely destroy
every single sign and trace of it,
no matter how much dandruff you
may have.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop
instantly, and your hair will be
lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and

Question-Do you think that Coop
err of the Pirates is favorable for
1924? Also tell me his good and bad
habits. How will Pittsburs finish this
year?
'Answer-Cooper should not be
through as a pitcher. He takes TO
heart misplays made when he is pitch
ing and is inclined to be moody. No
guesses on where clubs may finish. 1t
would take the seventh son of seventy
seventh son to do anything at that
and he would probably lose out.
Question-Will Max Carey keep up
his good stealing again this year?
Answer-If Carey's legs are sound,
and there is nothing known to the con-
trary, he should steal bases this year
almost as well as ever. Note the quail
fication. Carey is one year older at
each birthday.
