WESTERN WASHINGTON FOREST
FIRE CONDITIONS BAD


Portland, Oregon.-Probable severity
OF the 1880 forest fire season on the
Pacific Coast, as indicated by condi-
lions in the first week Of August which
are usually considered to afford about
the earliest basis of comparison and
conjecture, is still uncertain but,
especially II some meteorologists are
right, with small grounds for optim-
ism, according to reports received from
all western states by the Western
Forestry and Conservation Associa-
ton.
So far, about 1900 fires have been re-
ported, against nearly 3400 by this
time in 1929, and protective agencies
have been notably successful in handl-
ing them. The only important timber
damage has been in eastern Oregon,
where about 100000 feet of pine was
killed but will be salyaged by prompt
logging. On the other hand, condi-
tions nearly everywhere are exceeding
ly dry and dangerous, with troublesome
fires breaking out daily in the interior
regions. Seasonal rainfall is far below
normal and advocates of the sunspot
theory of precipitation believe low
sunspot minimum is approaching, in
dicating that the cycle may bring I'M
usual solar heat.
California, as at this time last year,
has had the largest number Of fires
about 1300-mostly grass and brush.
Damage is estimated at sl25,000 but
that to true forest land negligible.
Montana has the low record--about
300 fires and little damage. Wash
ington reports TIA fires, 2s2 being in
national forests, altoether covering
about $4,000 acres Of which much had
reforestation value but very little bore
timber. Conditions in eastern WASH
ington are bad, as they were last year.
In western Washington they are worse
than last year Oregon has had near
ly 400 government fires, covering $500
acres, with heavier timber damage.
Reports on other Oregon lands are
Imperfect, but important damage seems
confined TO some 80 million feet that
will be logged.
In short, 1t Is another. erratic season,

advanced without much loss. although

AT THE EMBASSY

Harold Lloyd has been directly refuted in a statement he made in court. as audiences will realize when they see College Lovers," the new First National picture which plays al the Embassy theater today, Thanksgiving day and Friday.
 Although a football game plays a big part in the picture, the hero's team does not win. The surprise ending has all the punch of an 0. Henry tale. and marks new treat ment 10 an old subject.
 A true-life expose of modern boot logging methods is the timely theme ot The Squealer," Columbia's all- talking screen drama which opened at the Embassy today. Throughout the five reels a high nervous tension is sustained that fairly holds the audience spellbound The story starts with punch right after the initial fade-in. One stirring situa- ton after another follows with amazing speed, and these lead to a breath-taking climax that is wholly unexpected but none the less logical and emotionally satisfactory.

THE NEW YORK PLAYERS

The ro.liclling Broadway comedy hit, "The Family Upstairs" present. cd by the New York Players at the Capitol tneater this week, is a clev- crly designed laugh play by the welt known humorist and playwright, Harry Deli.
 It is an American comedy of types and these types have never been etched more sharply nor pointed more clearly.
 The Family Upstairs is, in truth any family upstairs. You know them instantly, They are the folks who turn on the phonograph or radio at unheard of hours of the morning when you want 10 sleep. and who want 10 sleep when you want to turn on the music.
 The mother, nervous, irritable, sure she has gallstones from worry, yells at Annabelle for not practice ing. Willie, unable to hear above the din, tries to make dates with girls over the telephone. The father storms at the boy for not go- ing to work. Husband and wife nag each other.
 Into the peaceful CD atmosphere comes Louise, q sweet, wholesome, unaffected girl. The days work end- cd downtown, she sits at dinner with the rest Of them, the mother as us Lal inclined 10 pick on her because she has never seemed able to attract young men. But Louise has bomb mp her sleeve, Not only has she finally captured a young man, but he Is going to call that very evening.
 That's enough to get Mrs. Heller started. Already she sees herself with a son-in-law. The first thing 10 do is to impress the young man properly. He mustn't be allowed to think they're cheap.
 The swain arrives, a clean-cut, de- cent young bank clerk, who modest ly admits to Louise, in as charming q little love scene at you've ever wit messed, that he's getting only $40 q week. If she'll have patience. he knows he'll make good. Louise. who asks for nothing other Than an hon. est mans affection, murmurs her consent.
 All goes well. but they counted without Mrs. Heller. lm the mother s anxiety to impress the young man she tells him that Louise has no end of admirers, that she always takes taxi. even to the movies, and that of course. like all girls. she is fond of pleasure and pretty frocks.
 Grant realizes that his $40 a week would not go very far to satisfy such tastes. and he reluctantly tells Louise, in a fearful scene, that their engagement must be broken off. Mrs. Heller is very properly blamed fol the whole trouble. and for a time
