Norma. Okla. Nov. 90 R-Lew Wentx. Ponca City oil man. plans t6 help 10000 boys and girls through college in his lifetime.
 For this reason he refuses to be- come a candidate for governor of Oklahoma. as his republican friends suggest. A quest for public office, he fears would cause recipients of his financial assistance to misconceive his intentions.
 Wentz has established loan foun- dations at the University of Okla homa, here and the Oklahoma A. & NJ. college at saltwater with initial cndowments of 350.Oo0 each. At the university l34 loans have been made in the last two years and 34 of them already have been repaid in, full.
 Trustees of the funds are author ized to lend only to those students who have completed the freshman year They are allowed to- extend no more than 75 per cent of actual school expenses No security il re- quired and the interest rate on the loans is six per cent. The interest income goes back into tE1 loan funds to make them larger
 Students are allowed reason able time after graduation to pay principal and interest.
 When . movement was launched recently to make Wentz a candi- date for governor in 1880, he lost no time in sriking it. Referring to

H0MERIC DAMAGED { BY TERRIFIC GALES
Reaches Port With IS Feet Of Fore castle Head Torn Away
 By Storms,

New York. Nov. 30 R-The gales which swept the North Atlantic and the European coast this week. sent the British liner Homeric into port here with Is feet of her forecastle head railing torn away and caused passengers on the Leviathan to miss Thanksgiving Day dinners ashore.
 The Homeric, which docked 24 hours behind schedule, also had II glass ports on the promenade deck broken. The Leviathan bore no out ward signs of the storm but the 12 hours she lost on her schedule testi- fled to its fury.
 Although the Leviathan's passen- gers missed planned dinners ashore. they had turkey and all the trim mings aboard the vessel. The stew ard had laid in a stock of the birds before sailing against a possible de- lay in reaching New York.

 According to the best authorities nothing is known of how Joan looked save that she was robust and we'll proportioned." Joan her. self testified to this effect when tried by the English.
 According to Henri Wallon. loans biographer and conceded the greatest living authority upon the French heroine, it is apparent that the huge quantity of statues and paintings of Joan that exist are all products of the artistic imagin- ation.
