November 18th, has once again

thinks that not any book can be

made from a book necessarily must
be a reincarnafion, and that the
movie should be judged distinctly
from the book.
Il am wild about Thomas
Burke'S writings" says Charlie,
who has known the English writ
er intimately for many years, 81
loved 'Limehouse Night and The

Union High continued their
string of victories by defeating
their heavier opponents, Seattle

forth during the first quarter, with
the Vashon team playing better
and more brilliant football than
the college.
In the second quarter, the Wash
on team opened up with passes
and off-side tackles, which netted
many long runs. The ball was car
ried to the three yard line, when
pass was thrown to Jorgensen,
who juggled the ball, it fell into
the arms of Armstrong, who went
over for touchdown Reeves
failed to convert.
In the third quarter, Vashon
kicked off to College. They held
their heavier opponents in their
own territory, when the college
team lost the ball on downs.
Reeves then made a long end run,
which started the Yashon team on
their second touchdown. After
several line bucks and end runs,
Champ Nelson went over for a
touchdown. Reeves again failed to
convert.
In the last quarter, the Vashon
team held the heavy college team,
until two minutes before the game
ended, when the college team
made their only touchdown, and
failed TO convert.
The game ended with the ball in
the coliege possession, ON wash

MERCHANT MARINE
VITAL, SAYS JONES
Outlay for Ships in War Is
Called Lesson by
Senator.

The enormous outlay this govern
ment had TO make for ships during the
World War because America did not
have a merchant marine should make
Congress willing at this time to adopt
any reasonable measure that would
provide for the maintenance and devel-
opment OF an adequate merchant
marine. Senator Jones. Republican. Of
Washington. and the chairman of the
Senate commerce committee. told his
colleagues today.
Senator Jones opened debate on his
OF the present American merchant fleet.
and to authorize additional ships as
they are needed.
Senator Jones declared 1t Is almost
inconceivable that country OF this
size. with an ocean on each side OF It.
rs in such q deplorable condition" in
the matter Of merchant shipping facil-
tiles. He said that before the World
War I'VE were carrying only about 8
per cent of our imports and exports
In ships flying the American flag"
When this country entered the war,
he said. there was cry for ships and
more ships" It became necessary he
recalled, TO appropriate more than
100000 for this purpose. much Of
which was obtained by Liberty bonds.
and for the next so years this country
will continue TO pay interest because 1t
did not have a merchant marine when
the war began. he declared.
It IS probable that debate on the
marine bill will continue over a period
