the Ernest Lubitsch production. This
romantic drama which is known the
world over, being adapted from the

has successfully scored his mark in
the film art with some Of the most
splendid pictures Of the time, namely:
''Kiss Me Again" '"The Marriage
Circle" and $50 This Is Paris In
Passion Pola Negri assumes the
role Of the little French milliner who
became the most powerful woman in
all France by virtue Of her charm and
beauty. Emil Jannings plays the part
of King Louis the Fourteenth. Sup
porting Emil Jannings and Pola
Negri, Ernst Lubitsch had assembled
cast of 5000 people whom were

THE INTELLIGENT VOTERS

It is quite customary for political
orators to throw out remarks compli-
menting the intelligence of their aud
fences. All which makes the audi
ences feel very good, and in a favor
able state of mind toward the ideas of
the speakers. The American people
are intelligent, the most so Of all peo-
pies IF the world Yet the number
who are really intelligent on politics
is probably not as large as it used to
be- People have not of late been con-
centrating their minds on political
questions, though during the present
compaign there is a temporary reviv-
al of interest in these subjects. Peo-
BE who are very intelligent on ques-
tions of a business or personal nature,
and give little thought or attention to
these subjects. They vote the way
their grandfathers did, and when new
situations arise, they vote the way
trusted friends advise them to. These
audiences that are complimented on
being intelligent, should not take such
flattery too seriously. They might
we'll ask themselves if their intelli-
gence goes so far as to include poll
tics, and if they can make an intelli
gent choice when they have to decide
how to vote. 1t is perfectly easy for
anyone to become an intelligent voter.
The frequent radio talks to be given
during this campaign will be heard by
more people than ever before, and
they will gain in political intelligence.
The newspapers are constantly giving
the people the fundamentals Of politi-
cal intelligence. If they want to vote
in way to protect their own home
and community interest, they should
strive to be as intelligent on politics
as they are about automobiles or buy
ing goods or running business or
watching sports.

CHICAGO. Dec. 7.-Fortifled by
a two weeks relaxation since the
close of the Big Ten football cam
paign, Western Conference football
coaches, athletic directors and fac
ulty advisors gathered here today
for their annual conclave.
Ostensibly a friendly session for
making schedules and discussing
questions pertaining to the welfare
of conference athletics, the meeting
may develop a fight over eligibility
of players and charges of profess
sionalisnn.
Yelled Charges
Each institution is interested
chiefly in athletic success and the
representatives will be fighting to
protect the interests of their re-
spective institutions. Many yelled
charges Of ineligibility were banded
about during the 1928 football sea-
son and there is a possibility that
some of these will be brought into
the open.
Rumors that rival Big Ten
schools will make an effort to bar
Mayes McLain, Iowa's Indian star,
have resulted in apprehension over
the possibility that professional
ism" will be aired.
Griffith Tells View
Regarding today's meeting Major
John L. Griffith, western conference
commissioner, said:
TT is probable that PROSECUTING
will be mentioned. 1t has been
brought up at every session for

sion of it. but never any explosion.
With football dates already fair
ly well ironed out by adoption of

the setting of dates for other sports
coming under the head of minor
business, the meeting promises lit
tie excitement if the eligibility row
is submerged,
