OIL WELL REPORT
Shows Earnings of Property
involved in Red River
Boundary Fight.

The final report of Frederic A.
Delano, receiver for oil properties in
volved in the Red River boundary dis
pute between Oklahoma and Texas,
filed yesterday with the Supreme
Court, shows total receipts of S13,359,-
012, of which ST., sos came from
oil.
Drilling expenses during the receiv-
ership period were placed at $729, ,444,
and other operating expenses at, ST.
691 JAP. In addition $349, ,241 was paid
to operators for drilling, S5S6,S09 was
used for administrative expenses and
S5.265, ,454 was paid operators on ac-
count of fiood-plain wells. This left
avaIiabIe al the end of the receiver
ship S4,736,9 ,920, all of which has since
been paid out on order of the court,
with the exception of $191,333, of
which $107,932 is being held until the
court can decide who is entitled TO
royalties on wells 1872, 153 and 154.
This question will be considered next
week.
OF the monies handled by the re-
ceivers, the Government received 81
S91,269 from oil produced on land
which the court held belonged to
the Government, and $1,536,7S9 which
was paid claimants who owned wells
on land the court found was located
in Texas. The receiver paid Texas
these wells. There remains 1866 re-
ceived for oil from wells whose
owners cannot be located.
The receiver recommended that a
balance of SS3.40 held by him as
part of the money reserved to cover
operating expenses be returned to
Texas claimants.

.LOWDEN DENIES ILLS
OF FARMERS CURED
Confers With President; Says Or
ganization Is Best Hope to
Relieve Agriculture.

President Coolidge was told yester-
day by former Governor Frank o.
Lowden of Illinois that the agricul-
tural situation generally throughout
the country Is by no means as salts
factory as is being reported. He said
that while there has been some little
improvement, it has not been of the
magnitude the public generally be-
lieves, and that there are sections of
the country where, he contends. there
is still much disturbance among the
farmers. In his opinion. the situa-
ton has not cleared up and the
sooner the Government and the coun-
try at large realize this the better
1t will be for all concerned.
According to Gov. Lowden the
principal trouble is the high prices
the farmer is compelled to pay
for everything he purchases and the
relatively low prices he is receiving
for the things he sells.
Pins Hope ON Organization.
He stated that the only solution to
the farm problem in this country is
organization. He does not THINK legis-
lation will ever bring aboW the de-
sired results and he doubts Eery much
If the agricultural fact-fIding COM
mission, recently appoiJted by the
President, Will be able III be or much
assistance to the farmT generally.
Henry J. Allen, for1Ier Governor of
Kansas and prominently mentic---
connection with the Republican vice
presidential nomination prior to the
Cleveland convention last year. called
on President Coolidge today to pay his
respects, and. as he expressed IL after
wards, to have short chat about
things in general. Gov. Allen said
that the people of his State have
warm regard for the Executive and
that they are behind him In his
economy policy.
In the event that there is any seri-
Gus reaction throughout the country
as the result of the practice of too
much economy Gov. Allen believes
that the President will be ready to
meet the situation and will act accord
ingiy.

MOVIE STARS PROTEST
ACTS OF 'RUBBERNECKS'
Call on Police for Protection
Against Excess Attention From
Intrusive Sightseeing Throngs.
Rr the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
BEVERLY HILLS, Calf, April IS.
Motion picture stars, who live in
this Los Angeles suburb, in common
with others of their profession, are
not averse to publicity, but when the
"rubberneck" wagons exceeded what
is locally regarded as the limit, they
promptly called upon the police for
help.
The trouble started with the sight
seeing auto busses, The advertising
slogan personally conducted visits
to the homes of motion-picture stars
proved a lure, the operators found,
that seldom failed to get load of
passengers out of a downtown hotel
/. lobby in Los Angeles
Arriving in Beverly Hills, they
parked in front of some film favorite's
home and the chap who was barking
through the megaphone would say
something like this:
Here we have the residence of the
sheba of the movies. The lady in
white sitting on the veranda is her
sister. The gentleman sitting on the
left is her fourth husband" All of
which was embarrassing and annoy
ing to the objects of attention. The
sightseers even get bolder and would
venture into the private grounds
surrounding the homes.
So the residents got together and
confided their troubles to the chief of
police. The numbering busses may
still travel the streets of Beverly
Hills, but they are met with the
order to keep moving.

OXFORD ASKS BOXER FUND
BE USED ONLY IN CHINA
British University Now Has as
Many Oriental Students as Is
Believed Practicable.

Correspondence of the Associated Press.
OXFORD, England, March 81. -
More than 400 resident graduate
members of Oxford University, in
Guiding the vice chancellor and proc
tors, the public orator, 23 heads of
colleges and 33 professors and read
ers, have addressed to the foreign
secretary a memorial recommending
that the British share of the Chinese
Boxer indemnity fund be spent ex-
clusively upon educational and med
ical work in China.
There is no enthusiasm over the
proposal that number of Chinese be
educated in the English universities.
The universities are well filled at
present, and there is reason to be-
lieve that neither dons nor students
really desire the presence or company
of a further number of Oriental stu
dents.

SAVANT PROBES
LOWLY ATOMS
P D VI En-
NEW YORK, Nov. 14.-Ladies an

NEW YORK, Nov. 14.-Ladies and
Gentlemen, pity the lowly atom.
If you knew what an agitated life
it leads, you'd be sorry for this most
active of the elements, according to
Professor William D. Harkins, of the
University of Chicago Chemistry De-
partment, one of the worlds greatest
authorities on the atomic theory.
Twelve thousand miles second
is the normal travelling speed of
the atom as it races around the
Midway under the professors eagle
eye.
But the scientist is not content
merely to observe the actions of the
atom. His main interest is to discover
the relations of the atomic theory and
practical utility, and with this in
view he is now conducting a series of
experiments with hydrogen ate s,
which, If successful, will revolution
ize industry.
II pound Of hydrogen could be
converted into helium gas. says the
professor, the reaction would produce
energy equal to 10000 tons of coal!
And this, says he, is the result he
hopes to achieve.
There is no reason" he declares,
"why this should not occur. There is
evidence that it occurs in nature. IT
is lust such a chemical change that
is believed to be what keeps the sun
hot.
"And think Of the benefit TO hu-
mainly il it we're found possible to
convert a pound of hydrogen, which
costs one cent, into active energy as
great as that supplied by ten thou
sand tons Of coal, which cost perhaps
S1GO. 900. / believe that science will
discover not only how to manufacture
this power, but also how to control
it,"
According to Professor Harkins,
there is little danger in conducting
these experiments, as it is far more
difficult to discover how to cause the
reactions rapidly than slowly. =.
However. he is confident that TINS
same Misunderstanding pound OF hydro
gen may some day be evolved into an
explosive power equal to sixty thou.
scand tons of dynamite, and if that
ever happens all of a sudden--well,
the professor will scarcely be there to
record the result.

BROADWAY ZOUAVES' RUN
KNOCKERS INTO OBLIVION
By E. M. GUTENBERG
BY Universal service.

NEW YORK, Nov. Alt is the
opinion of great many well-posted
stylists that knickerbockers have been
given over to burlcsque by the abuses
to which they have been subjected and
that. as a result, the well-dressed
sportsman will shortly revert to long
trousers.
The Broadway Zouaves, non-sports-
men as a rule, with exaggerated plus
tours hanging far below their knees,
are listed among the pall-bearers of
this illustrious fad. Then too, there
is the brown derby golfer who parades
the highways of every great city,
wearing diamond-check golf stockings,
knickers and hard hat.
The latter may even feature a
starched collar now and then to
heighten the effect of his equipment.
Gentlemen who bark" their knuckles
reaching for rice pudding in the slot
machine restaurants in New York
have decided that the knicker suit
makes a first-class breakfast costume
and their preferences in the matter
have not materially aided the cause
of abbreviated breeches.
PROPHETS JUBILANT.
The / Told You So Club, consisting
largely of men who follow the styles
in masculine attire. are reiterating
their early predictions regarding
knickers. These gloomy prophets con-
tended when sports wear was first
taken up in this country that Ameri-
cans would make travesty of the
style, after the prevalent manner of
rushing a new idea to death.
In many Of the fashionable country
clubs around New York, the golfers
are wearing long trousers of liberal
dimensions, exploiting double pleats
at the waist and a wide cuff. Some
wear the jacket to match, a variety of
conveniences being provided in the
last mentioned garment in the way of

pivot sleeves, spacious pockets for golf
balls, pipes, ETC., and many with full
and half belts. As a rule however.
the knitted pull-over seems a very
practically garment for the golfer and
many gay patterns are still noted. In
the future, however, there is little
doubt that a more subdued note will
feature the knitted outer wear for the
men.
OBJECT TO WOODEN.
Many of the well-dressed country
club members defend their belligerent
attitude toward knickers by stating
that the wooden stockings necessarily
worn with such outfits, are not COM
Portable for most men. A great horde
of determined followers of fads clamp-
ed their teeth together and fought the
issue through because they thought
wooden stockings were the thing that
was being done and that they must
therefore subject themselves to a it,
tie refined torment. Wooden stock
ings on shanks unaccustomed to wool
have been known to produce a fine
frenzy and throw men badly off their
game.
Another argument advanced is that
knickers require a great deal of "fid-
ding" with buckles and clasps. where
as long trousers can be donned and
DOTTED very easily.
OTHER OBJECTIONS.
The fact that a great many school
boys have taken up knickers in
serious way, wearing as a rule, grotes.
que models of the super.inflated type,
has rather set the style back with
the older men.
To sum up the situation, Mayfair
has relinquished the knicker to the
tender considerations of Broadway.
As marketable merchandise, the knick-
er is by no means threatened. As an
element in the attire of the we'll
dressed sportsman, however, its future
is decidedly hazy.

INDULGE IN
ADVENTURE

IfDS ANGELES, Nov. 14.-n you
had to have an adventure with a
bandit. which one OF the following
four varieties would you prefer to
have? These four adventures oc-
Cured in one night, according to po-
lice reports:
ADVENTURE NO. 4.
Tony Abdnour runs coffee house
at 215 IL South Spring street. Bandit
walks in. nervous sort of chap. Tells
Tony to put up. his hands, which
Tony does. Bandit then stands there
bashful-like.
"Why don't you rob this till? l
can't stand here all night" says Tony.
"Oh, yes" says bandit, coming out
of brown study. When he opens the
cash register, Tony descends on him
from the rear, takeJ his pistol and
chases the bashful young man down
the street.
ADVENTURE NO. 2.
William L. Clark returned late TO
his home. PAT North Catalina street.
Notices pair of shoes. toes up, under
his bed. They were not his shoes.
"Come out. / have a pistol" says
Clark.
Out comes young man, and when
he notices Clark has no pistol, he
says, But really have a pistol" and
he reaches for his hip. SO he got
away.
A half hour later Policemen Sauter
and Williams found young man hid
ing in wash back of the Marlbor-
ough school. Clark identified him,
mostly by the feet. The young man
was not armed, and in that pistol play
it IT, lspired both he and his intend
ed victim had been bluffing. Joseph

jail.
ADVENTURE NO. 3.

by three men, no friends Of his. One
Of the gentlemen spat tobacco juice,
with the unerring aim of an old coun-
try store sport, into the eyes Of Mr..
Turney. and while thus temporarily.
but painfully blinded, he was robbed.
This is not an adventure that any
body would want to experience it is
merely put in for variety's sake.)
ADVENTURE NO. 4.
(For women readers) Miss Peggy
Goodridge. 1859 North Kingsley drive,
while walking homeward on Highland
avenue, accosted by purse grabber.
But her handbag had two stout
straps, which were around her arm,
and she held on. The bandit, holding
to the handbag. threw her down in
the street and dragged her around,
but Miss Goodridge held on all the
time calling for help. This call brought
the bandits lookout" and the two
men tried to separate the woman from
her handbag, but they failed after an
other tug-of-war, and hearing foot
steps, they both ran away.
