Eight New Hoover Appointees
to Cabinet Confirmed
by Senate.

administration of the Governments af-
fairs.
Mr.. Hoover explained today that his
purpose In attempting to conceal the
names OF the men he had selected for
ms cabinet as long as possible was not
Tor the purpose of being contrary, but
to protect the men themselves from re-
actions that necessarily would have been
very embarrassing to them if there had
been premature publications of their
definite selection. -
He smilingly admitted that despite
his precautions to keep these names
from the press as long as possible.
the alertnesS on the part OF newspaper
men resulted In the names of his official
family gradually becoming known before
ne submitted them to the Senate ~
1t Is thought likely that Mr.. Hoover
now will turn his attention to the ap-
pointment OF the several undersecre-
tarleS and the various assistant secre-
taries of the 10 Government depart
ments, which group of high officials is
generally recognized as the little cabi-
net in Washington. He will not, how
ever, take up this matter definitely UNI
til the various cabinet officers have
been confirmed. The indications are
that he will be guided to very large
degree in appointing the Assistant Sec
retaries and undersecretaries by the
wishes and advices of the cabinet off,
GERS themselves. In other words, he is
inclined to virtually let the depart
mental heads select their own assistants.
Diplomatic Posts Due to Wait.
In the case of the Secretary of the
Treasury and the Secretary of Labor,
who already are holding Office, it Is
thought likely that he will be able to
complete the selection of the assistant
secretaries in these departments In adj
vance of the other departments.
Mr.. Hoover has been represented as
not caring to give his attention to the
matter of the major diplomatic appoint
ments until he has been able to confer
with the new Secretary of State. In
that event, it is not expected that there
will be any changes in the more i'm
portant foreign posts until next month,
inasmuch as Mr.. Stimson will not be at
the head of the State Department be-
fore the next three weeks.

direction
Later he indicated that he did not
want the newspapermen to fear that he
intended to be as difficult to interview
as he was during the campaign, es-
pecially during the long period follow
ing his election. BY way of explanation
Mr.. Hoover explained that his position
as the President-elect was a delicate
one so far as his talking for publication
was concerned.
His embarrassment was emphasized
principally at the time by the fact that
there was still President. who was
competent to speak for the Government.
Now that he Is President and those en-
barrassments~ have disappeared, Mr..
Hoover has tlot the slightest wish to be
either secret lye or inaccessible.

Reindeer to Supply Worlds Meat
 In HaH Century, Stefansson Says

said there was little difference be- tween the taste of beef and rein deer.
 The explorer said 1t soon would be necessary for the world to sub- stitute reindeer meat for beef. due. first to the United States embargo on Argentine beef. and to the fact that the Argentine supply was di- minishing because of the growing consumption among Argentinians of their own meat products.
 Stefansson also took occasion to deride the popular belief that the natives of the arctic zone were de- scendants of the ancient Greeks, . belief. he said. which is taught even in the textbooks of the modern uni. versailles throughout the world. He characterized the belief as my thology of the arctics."

 London. Maya (UP)-Ihat the human race would enter another ''reindeer age" within hajf . cen tury was the prediction made today by Vilhjalmur Stefansson. the cele- brated arctic explorer. who said that the principal meat supply of the world within five decades would come from Alaskan, Siberian and Canadian reindeer instead of from the steers of the cattle ranges.
 In an interview with the United Press. the arctic explorer empha- sized the fact that the reindeer of the arctics were far more economi- cal as a food than tho cattle whic h have to be forAged during the win ter months on the American and Argentine ranges.
 Stefansson pointed out that rein deer live on grass during the sum mer time. in spite of the popular belief that there is no graas in the cold country. and that during the winter they subsist on lichens and bushes. When they are slaughtered. he said. all the packers have, to do is to hang them out in the open air and the following morning they will be completely frozen and ready for shipment.
 Even during the warm summer months, Stefansson said. the slaugh- tered reindeer can be stored just a few feet under the surface of the ground, where the permanent arctic frost will kep them preserved for a long period. in a natural refrigera- tor.

DIXIE TRACK MEN PREP ARE

ATLANTA, Feb. 22.-H win : made the biggest showing of his tory in track and field in 1928, Dixie athletes are determined to add new marks in several events during the coming season.
 Beating the 1928 marks may be too much to hope for since Ed Hamm of Georgia Tech establish ed new worlds broad jump rec ord and was Olympic champion; Snider, Auburn 440 man. won place on the international games team; Cummings of Virginia uni versity, later representing a New Jersey club, was an Olympic man, and some ten old marks fell in de cisive fashion at the Southern Conference meet at Birmingham.
 To Meet In June
 This year, however while there will be no Olympic games to look forward to, Hamm and Snider will be closing their collegiate careers and will prime for the southern meets and the national collegiate at Chicago in June.
 The jumping jacket of Georgia Tech will try to break 26 feet in broad jump. This would we'll eclipse any known record of man. He now hovers near that mark, having dug the sand only a frac- tion of an inch short of it at Bos- ton last summer. It was that jump which beat the mark of De Hart Hubbard, negro athlete, which had bid fair to stand many years.
 Hamm also jumped 25 feet, four inches at the Birmingham meet and was consistently around 25 feet all spring and summer.
