German Presidents Popularity Proves Embarrassing For Him. self.

 Bern's shops wing with each other in at- tractve displays, there is nothing the soldier president would like to uo more than mix among the shopping ~rowds and gaze at the window exhibits.
 Such a diversion is denied him, however, be- cause his mer, appearance on foot would mean the stopping of all traffic. An incognito is lm- possible His is the privilege enjoyed by King Saul of old of whom the Scriptures say when he stood among people he was higher than any of the people from his shoulders upward The presidents huge head. his striking face cannot be disguised. even rom the smallest street urchin. Close friends say that the president realizes he is paying stiff price for popularity. Though he ha lived in Berlin for | a year and half he has never walked out side of the presidential gardens What little he sees of Berlin is through the windows of his automobile.

YALE'S THEATER
 FORMALLY OPENS
Everything Is Done by Student
 Members

New Haven, Conn.,, Dec. Il F- Inviting the outer world only to look and listen and admire, Yale uni versity's department of drama burst forth last evening full-ledged, stand ing four square on it's own feet. asking no favor of playwright or producer or technician or actor, or even theater owner.
 For in new theater dedicated to the department of drama was pro- duced a play written by a student in the department, acted by stu- dents, with lighting and costumes and scenic effects all by students. Never before in university history has such complete job been done. Only the members of the corpora ton and officers of Yale university the deans of the various schools, full professors, and the officers of the dramatic association were present at this first of the five, or possibly six, dedicatory performances.
 Boyd Emith of Elkins, W. Va, a student in the dramatic workshop of Professor George Pierce Baker, was the playwright. His offering, "The Patriarch" is tragedy of West Virginia family life in three acts and five scenes. After it's original writ ing it was presented before a care- fully selected audience and crit icized frankly and fully. Then 1t was carefully reviewed during the summer.
 Lemist Esler of Stony Creek, Conn.,, served as stage director, with Daniel M. Coxe of Philadelphia as assistant, Ruth Chamberlain Bar Der of Boston and Maurice Onesin of Syracuse as lighting assistant, Harry Leroy Burnett of Ann Arbor, { Mich, in charge of stage properties and Dean Hawley Holden of Blue Hills Maine, as stage carpenter. !

.ORM|S7ON READY
 F0R LEGAL FIGHT
Will Attempt to Block Extra
 dition to Los Angeles

' Chicago, Dec. il R--Kenneth C.. Ormiston, Los Angeles radio opera tor, is in Chicago, but whether he will be taken back to Los Angeles to answer charges of conspiracy to defeat justice remains q question for the future.
 Los Angeles authorities want back the long missing figure in the Aimee Semple McPherson kidnap- ping case and are preparing extra would fight any attempt to get him farther West than Chicago. | Ormiston arrived here last night from Harrisburg, Pa, accompanied man, and immediately went into conference with his attorney, Ed ward H. s. Martin, who has been his mouthpiecr since his disappear ance several months ago. So far as Chicago police know, Ormiston is not under arrest, al though one of his companions on the Hegira to Chicago was Sergeant Harry Donnelly of Chief of Police Collins personal staff.
 II am so sure he is not under ar rest" said Chief Collins, that l have wired authorities at Los Angeles to that effect. Sergeant Donnelly may have him but he is not under arrest. He isn't in the police station, is he?"
 The district attorneys office at Los Angeles, however, has moved to take Ormiston out of the hands of what they termed private captors," and place him In custody pending attempts at removal to Los Angeles, Ben Cohen, chief of detectives, wired Chicago police to arrest the defend- ant.
 Ormiston spent the night here at southside hotel.
 District Attorney Reyes won't get me back to California" he said in a copywrighted story in the Herald and Examiner. -'I don't be- ileFe ne wants me back there. Reyes and his associates cant prove a crime against me. I have done noth- ing wrong and have nothing to fear"
 It was decided at the conference with his attorney that if warrant was received here Ormiston would post cash bond, Mir. Reyes left Washington for the west last night, but whether he would stop here was not announced.
 If Reyes wishes 10 see me I'll be glad to meet him." Ormiston said ''but it will have to De in the of. flee of my attorney" Ormiston man. tained that Reyes previously had turned down an offer for meeting. extended through Attorney Martin.

ROCKEFELLER SCION
 WINS AS AN ORATOR
Prentice Captures Second Prize at Yale Following Oratorical
 Contest,

New Haven, Dec. II R-Unlike many scions of wealthy families, John Rockefeller Prentice practices what he advocates, nor is he without the faculty of preaching what he practices.
 The grandson of John D. Rocke- feller, Prentic' is working his way through Yale as night switchboard operator at a hospital, learning the lesson of leadership through disci- pline and training.
 l.. night ( mpeting in the Ten Eycll oratorical contest, he expound- ed so succ .sfully his views on lead ership that he was awarded second prize, carrying with it somewhat of honor and $50 in cash.
 To be a leader one must have gone through a long period of try. ing, Prentice said.
 "Th capacity to lead Is not a gift of the gods" he said. Throughout history. from the days of the Medes and Persians, ominance has been based upon Discipline and training"
 Prentice has disciplined and trained himself sufficiently to win the James J. Hogan scholarship, awarded for str )ng character, per sonality, good standing in the stu dent body, fair scholarship. and ne- cessity for self support. His aver age in scholarship reports has been we'll above 90 pc- cent.
 Perhaps he is training himself for leadership because he feels that there is a dearth of ability along that line, for in his oration he re- marked that causes of the de- cline in lcaG crship are as deep root ed as the fore es that went to estab- fish leadership in the first place.
 Tt is significant that the period when Rome was at her height and the period when she reached her lowest ebb were not far apart" he said, and went on to soply the an- alogy to Yale.
 Now that Yale Is evidently at the height of her power. it is time tc consider wheth"r sight may have been lost of the principles on which the univ rsity was founded, for ''it might even be the case that now we are facing an abrupt decline without recognizing its presence.
