Famous Professors Eyes
Are Misty as He Greets
Waiting Crowds.
BY DUANE HENNESSY
United Press stan Correspondent

BAN DIEGO, Cal, Jan. 1.-The
eyes of Professor Albert Einstein
we're misty. as the meek hammered
little man whose theories have in
trigled the world stood on an open
air stage Wednesday and praised
the present age for giving recogni-
ton TO the men who think.
There were few in the crowd of
5000 who understood his soft spoken
German, but the human appeal OF
the man carried his sentiments to
hem and won their hearts. His
words were not interpreted.
Il am simple man." DR.. Einstein
began. He paused and shifted nerv-
ously from one foot to the other.
Such wecome as you give to a
man who has only originated a
thought to my mind illustrates one
thing, that is, that never before in
history has the world so honored a
man"
Have Busy Day
It was a busy day for DR.. and
Frau Einstein. Just at dawn news
paper reporters boarded the Bel
genland, on which the Einsteins
came here from Germany, enroute
to the California Institute of Tech
nology at Pasadena, Calf.
There Dr. Einstein will confer
with scientists working out the
theories he originated. He himself
cares only for the mathematical
side of the work.
The Herr Professor was still in
bed when the newspapermen ar
rived, but he obligingly hurried to
make .an appearance in the ships
loungs.
The battle between reporters and
cameramen started Immediately.
The professor sat in an arm chair
while his wife, ever smiling and
making friends, got the interview
started, sorting a question from the
many asked in quick succession.
do you think man ever can
reach another planet?"
Explain RELATIVELY in few
words"
Is Europe approaching warp"
In aside remark to his wife in
German, DR.. Einstein smiled and
said:
TT would take q whole library to
answer these fellows"
But here are some of his views.
Not Politician
Is Europe approaching WARP"
Einstein was asked The pacitlst
replied: This is time for action,
not for waiting"
How are you feeling?"
Fine, until now" he grinned.
Have you any new announce
ments to maker"
Il am not a politician 1 can not
say something new every day"
Are you going to engage in any
new work?" was another question.
DO you mean work already born
or yet to be born?" he countered.
will man be able to travel to an
other planet?"
II do not know who is on the
other planet"
Before speaking, DR.. Einstein was
greeted by Mayor Harry G. Clark
and two local rabbis, one of whom
spoke in German. The Associated
jewish Societies of San Diego pre-
sented the professor with gold
medal

Hilarious Welcome as Ever
Extended by City Given
to New Year.
By United Pres.

By United Frees
CHICAGO, Jan. LA sllrieking
ing wind that carried in a, blizzard
from the western prairies swirled
between Chicagos skyscrapers to-
day, adding to the din, and the dis
comfort, of thousands who gave
1881 as hilarious a welcome as the
city ever extended to a new year.
Old 1890, the year Of depression,
was forgotten entirely by the opti-
mistic citizens who thronged the
loop in bu ness and formal dress;
by the thousands who paid from SIS
to $50 plate for midnight dinners
in fashionable hotels; by the hun
dreds who knelt in prayer in the
city's churches; by everyone, per-
haps, except the jobless, who
warmed themselves with newspapers
on the lower street levels or begged
dimes from the nerrymakers.
At midnight a deafening din was
raised throughout the city. State
street was packed with shouting
humanity. Some Of the merrynak-
ers staggered Little attention was
paid to the fact that it was 10 above
zero and getting colder. Some, in
fact, did not appear even to realize
that it was cold at all.
Few Dry Arrests
Prohibition agents were stationed
in all hotel dining rooms and made
unannounced visits to the better
known night clubs, but in few in
stances did they interfere with the
celebration.
When they did interfere, 1t was
to give warnings and few arrests,
none important, we're made.
In the hotels, guests were warned
to keep bottles out of sight and
managers reported they had no
difficulties either with officers or
customers. One hotel refused to
serve "setups," but delivered ice
cold ginger ale to the table of any
guest who asked for it.
While the din was at its height,
with people shouting, auto sirens
blowing, and steamboats, in the
Chicago river adding to the noise,
a comparatively small group of 300
persons knelt in prayer in the First
Methodist church, which is located
on the main floor of skyscraper in
the heart Of the loop.
Need we care for the frantic
nirth going on outside tonight"
said the Rev. John Thompson to
his congregation. 1--WE, gathered
here in the peaceful atmosphere of
this house OF prayer can pity those
frenzied Worldlings who in their
folly, doubtless pity US"
browns Depression in Gin
Although the depression Of the
passing year was forgotten in most
places, it was recalled, humorously,
at the Turkish village, a famous
Clark street restaurant. where two
years ago a double murder was
committed.
AS the clock struck II, one reveler
there produced a rag doll labeled
Old Man Depression, and, with
much solemnity, drowned it in tub
OF gin.
Traffic, throughout the city, was
heavy. Many accidents were re-
ported, most of them minor. Shortly
before midnight an automobile
plowed into group of pedestrians
waiting for a street car. Two men
we're killed, two others injured.
The two deaths brought the total
automobile fatalities in Cook county
in 1880 to 1885, a record of ia more
than in 1929.

CHANCE AT REVENGE
AGAINST FARGO MAN
Aberdeen Boy to Get Second
Shot at Kennard in
Headlines
O'DAY TO BATTLE HORWlTz
Bad Boy Knight Of Aberdeen
Will Try to Stop Cossette
in Four Rounds

In line with a nationwide move
ment to stage athletic carnivals for
the benefit of charity, the Bismarck
Elks will put on a boxing card at the
city auditorium Thanksgiving, day,
the proceeds of which will be used
to buy fuel for deserving poor FAM
lilies in the community.
Dick Demeray, flashy Aberdeen
fighter. and Sherald Kennard of
Fargo will headline the affair.
Kennard eked out a hair-line deci-
sion over Demeray at Fargo Tuesday
night which left the South Dakotan
and his followers decidedly hot un-
der the collar. Demeray laced one in
the second round of the battle that
laid Kennard cold but it vas in the
closing seconds of the round and the
bell saved the Fargoan.
Many fight fans were dissatisfied
with the newspaper decision that
gave Kennard an edge in three
rounds to take the fight and are con-
fident that Demeray will knock the
Cass county boy out the next time
they enter the ring.
Mickey O'Day Of Aberdeen and
George Horwitz of Fargo are billed
for the semi-windup. Both turned
in stellar performances in previous
appearances here and promoters are
confident that this fight will draw
many boxing enthusiasts who like to
watch fast, clean mixing.
Roy CoSsette, who astonished the
gallery by his ability to take it when
he fought Demeray here, has been
slated to take on Bad Boy knight Of
Aberdeen, another tough hombre.
Kid Kramer, q Canadian, claims
that he can take Tuffy Mosset OF
Bismarck and promoters decided tc
give him the opportunity, signing up
the pair over the four-round route.
Other fights on the card feature
Jimmy Todd of Medina versus Ber
Minnish Of Aberdeen and Sonny

Nodaks Leave For
Pittsburgh Where
They Meet Dukes
To Play George Washington
Next Week; Third Game
Proposed

Grand Forks, N. D., Nov. 19.-PN
Bound for eastern gridirons and new
conquests, q University Of North Da-
kota football players with Coaches G.
A. West and G. L. Starbeck entrained
for Pittsburgh Wednesday night
where the Nodaks will meet Dequesne
university Saturday.
It will be North Dakota's second in
vasion Of the east in as many years.
Last November the Nodaks trekked
to the Atlantic Seaboard to meet
Army and Dequesne. Army handed
the great west machine its only 1880
defeat. After it's appearance in
Niche stadium, North Dakota trim
med Elmer Layden's Dukes IA to z.
Following the Army game last year,
West took his wandering Nodaks to
Washington, D. c., where they worked
and visited for a week before going to
Pittsburgh and the Duquesne battle.
It was during vic stay at the ma
tional capital that George Washing
ton became interested in a 1881 game
with the Sioux. So, next Sunday the
North Dakota contingent will go back
to renew the acquaintance with Presi-
dent Hoover and Thursday clash with
the PuritanS.
There are also prospects for a third
game in the east before the Nodaks
return. Davis and Elkins, leading
scorer among the nations football
teams, would like another chance at
North Dakota. Jennings Randolph,
athletic director for the West Virginia
school, has asked West II he would
meet the Scarlet Hurricane in Phila-
delphia. The Sioux coach has signi-
fled his willingness to meet Davis and
Elkins If satisfactory terms are SUBJ
mitted.
The game, If arranged, would be
played Nov. %, and would be con-
venient for the Nodaks as they re-
turn to Pittsburgh on their way home
after the game with George WASH
ington.
Unless the team plays Davis Elkins.
it will return to Grand Forks Sunday,
November %, arriving at $3.50 a. m.
