Promises New Plan
In appealing personally to the
convention to reject part of the
resolutions committees report, DR..
Townsend promised that a plan
would be speedily worked out with
the advisory committee and board
of directors designed to assure its
continuation after his death.
The convention, without objec-
tons, adopted some of the resolu-
tions. They included:
Condemnation of the Bell con-
gressional investigation commit
tee with a declaration that the
right of free speech is threatened
by such "inquisitions"; a declara-
ton that the movement is strictly
non-partiSan, and that the name
be changed to Townsend Recovery
Plan, Inc.
Fights Stock Transfer
Resolutions to which DR.. Town
send objected included immediate
transfer of stock in the o. A. r. P,
Inc, to the advisory board.
DR.. Townsend also blocked q
resolution proposing a coalition
with all similar groups working to
the same end, provided the organ
izations not be larger than the
Townsend plan.
Without objection, the conven-
ton approved resolution declar-
ing that the major political OBJ
jective of the movement is cleo.
ton of Senators and members of
Congress, because the 1886 presi-
Dental election may be thrown
into the House of Representatives.
After a session which lasted
until early morning hours today
the board of directors decided that
no action would be taken to cen
sure any speaker. DR.. Townsend,
in a personal statement, said that
action in Conner Smiths case was
postponed until after the conVen-
ton.
On pleas Of members of the
board, DR.. Townsend reversed his
earlier position. He had asserted
that he would not sit on the board
again with Conner Smith and
would resign himself if the board
rejected his custer demand. He
said "streSs of business" caused
him to change his attitude.
Later, DR.. Townsend said his
feelings toward Conner Smith had
not changed and that he would
press his demand for expulsion
after the convention is ended.
He explained that he was moved
to postpone action partly because
the citizens maximi, or national
advisory board, urged restoration
of peace in the organization.
Custer Suit Stands
The Rev. Gerald Smith made
the first move for a reconciliation
by offering his hand to Conner
Smith. The two Smiths later,
with arms about each other, en-
gagged in a friendly conference.
While foes of the third party
movement charged the pension or
ganization was being sold down
the rived" politically, leaders
charged Democratic agents were
fighting to stampede the conven-
ton for the Roosevelt administra-
ton.
The custer lawsuit filed here by
the Rev. A. ]. Wright of Cleve-
land, George Heighly of Los An
geles and others was to be an

And then he saw the Black Haired Lady.
Both of them flushed, and both looked

The Black Haired Lady clenched her hands

crazy things -. come over for a cup of tea!''
Instead, some hateful imp of pride directed
her tongue. Il don't think you need to worry
about Mamie. I'm sure she can take care of
herself"
'Oh, yes, know ALI females can take care
of themselves, you've told me so thousand
times" he retorted angrily.
She blazed at him. "And you've explained
to me, ever so kindly, that men are the masters
of the earth" She jerked open the screen door

Indignantly focused on the gloomy masculine
bulk in the yard next door.
Then she went back into the house and
the slam of the kitchen door was like slap
in the face. The Master stared at it balefully,
then went inside and slammed the door of his
own house. Old Lady Cat WINGED. and shifted
her position uncomfortably.
"The trouble with the world is" she told
herself sadly. that it's full of He's and She's"
The kitten nosed awkwardly into the saucer
of milk, then backed away, licking its small
chops forlornly. Old Lady Cat looked at it
critically, then gave an experimental lap her
self. She jerked her head up. disguste1ly.
Sour again! And can remember the time
when nothing but the top of the bottle was
good enough for me and mine. Something has
to be done about this"
scraping sound at the base of the trellis
fence startled her. A sleek pointed-nosed head,
followed by an elongated brown body, was
twisting and squirming its way through.
Old Lady Cat stared unbelievingly, the hair
rising vertically along her backbone Her ears
went back. and she spat, sibilantly. Get out
of here, you snake. 3" she Kissed.
The long sausage shaped body finally emerged
in its entirety. Two bright brown eyes blinked
at her in pleased surprise.

yelping shrilly, humping himself along like an
excited caterpillar.
The kitten spat wildly and retreated behind
his grandmother. Old Lady Cat sprang up,
every hair erect, and as the numbering dachs-
hund came careening up the steps, she shot
out pin loaded paw, and smacked the tip
of his tender nose.
He fairly tumbled down the steps, tail
clamped tightly between his sawed-off legs.
"Snake!" she Kissed, 81 warned you ="
He ran his injured nose along the soft loamy
surface of the nasturtium bed.

Mamie glanced irritably at her offspring.
Il suppose he's hungry again. Honestly, that
kitten eats and eats. don't know where he
puts it. He certainly never seems to get any

Old Lady Cat looked down resignedly at the
squalling, spindly-legged mite. We'll, I'll ask
my Lady to give him some milk. BY the way,
isn't that your Master over there by the gold
fish pool? He hasn't been to see my Lady for a
week. What's wrong?"
Mamie's tail jerked impatiently. 'Oh, good
ness. don't know. He's so gloomy lately that
he'd forget all about feeding me if l didn't
yowl all over the place. He even brought home
a Dog to keep him company. A Dutch dog"
She made graceful leap that landed her
on the top rail of the fence to the right.
''Well. goodbye, III be back pretty soon.

She was twitching it mechanically for him
when the Black Haired Lady came out on the
back porch She was really very lovely, despite
the pallor of her face, and the fearful circles
under her eyes. She raised herself on tiptoe
to look over the trellis into the next yard. And
if the gloomily smoking masculine person had
seen her at that instant, he could never have
resisted the picture she made, in the fresh blue
gingham dress that matched her eyes.

Personalities
By Nellie Dods0n

Talk about resemblances. Did
you ever notice the striking like
ness between Mildred Bohanon and
Kitty Carlisle of the movies? They
have the same slim figure, the
same aristocratic carriage. A COM
parison of pictures of the two
brings out the resemblance even
more clearly.
And, of course, there's always
that resemblance between Hoagie
Ray and George Raft of the
movies. Ray looks enough like
Raft to double for him any day.
And another resemblance, not quite
so pronounced, though, is the one
between Henry Wadsworth of the
flickers and Ollie Grantham. If
you saw Ceiling Zero," Wads-
worth played the part of Tay Law
son, the young mail pilot who was
knocked out by James Cagney so
that Cagney could take over his
mail fight.
What southern cullud college has
a football field ten yards short of
regulation, and when guy runs
for a touchdown he has to run to
the goal and then BACK ten yards
to make the full distance? And I
believe it's the same cullud col
lege where the goal posts are up
against fence, and if the touch
down runner doesn't stop on a dime
he'll get his bean banged against
the goal posts.
Cliff Rucker has opened up a
new place on Sixth Ave., and asks
the gang to drop over there and
razzle-dazzle around whenever the
mood strikes. It is a few doors
up from the Keystone Bar. The
booths should be fixed by the time
this reaches print. Booth-sitting
is popular pastime around these
two towns, so this'l mean some
more booths to booth in.
If the Kappas never have an
other athletic hero in their frater-
nifty annals, they can always point
back to Ed (The Great Cody Cor
don of the University of Iowa. Ed
Gordon was, in his prime, one of
the greatest track men the Hawk
eyes ever had. His track reputa-
ton was rivaled only by his rec
ord of feminine conquests. He had
nerve enough to go anywhere or
do anything. Ed Gordon was, and
I suppose still is, PERSONAL
ITY. His amazing ego has caused
him to be violently disliked in
many quarters, but even those who
dislike him have to give him credit
for having been always versatile
enough to make good his boasts
and conceits. The tales about his
antics and exploits are legion, and
they've been told so many times
all over the country that most Of
them are about as we'll known as
Gordon himself. Personalities like
Gordon's aren't quickly forgotten.
They live to become veritable ira
ditions.
Spring quarter begins. The
quarter of lazy blue-gold days with

Minnesota Union looking out AT

won't wear pet-petticoats.

before anyone gets simplify with

thing she writes. That's right, Els,

years and still do it when get
