DRESS AND cape ensembles
have always been headliners on the
fashion front, but this season marks
a new high in styling and fabric
groupings. One Of the recent mod
els brought out for saunterings
comes in a basket-weave, light
weight wooden, in dusty pink. The
short-sleeved dress has extended
shoulders, slide fastener at the
center front and a tiny peplum that
shows the pointed edging featured
at greater detail in the cape. The
skirt is gored in front and straight
in back. Pointed trimming travels
across the tray shoulders and around
the cape, which ties in a small bow
at the front. The ensemble fairly
cries for a black suede belt and ac-
cessories

SCHOOL BUS BILL |IS PROGRESSING.
 IN LEGISLATURE
House Moves $65,0O0 Ap- propiation to Third Read
 ing-Vote Tomorrow
IF PASSED MUST FACE
 SENATE'S SIX-RULE
Efforts by Opposition to Cut Amount Fail to Mus
 ter Necessary Support

Transportation for school chil- dren occupied the morning session of the Territorial House this morn ing and after the smoke of oration and argument had cleared away, a bill providing for an appropriation of S65 ,000 to furnish transportation during the next two years had reached third reading and will be a special order of business for final action at II o'clock tomorrow morn- ing. Several urged that action be taken today but the majority of the members decided it might be illegal because it was Seward Day, Ter ritorial holiday.
 Authored by J. P. Anderson of the First Division, the measure was in- troduced by the special committed on Social Security late yesterday and is really a substitute for the bill introduced earlier by James V Davis and Harry Race of the First but later withdrawn.
 Attempt To Amend
 Two efforts were made to amend the short four line measure this morning but both failed by sub stantial majorities. Victor B. Ross of the Fourth proposed the amount be cut to $2,000 to provide only for the Matanuska Colony, but mus tered only four votes for his pro- posal. Leo Rogge of the Fourth then suggested the amount be fixed at $55,000 on grounds that some of the last biennium appropriation was used to repair busses at Matanuska after they had been used in other Colony work. Education Commis- sioner A. E. Karnes was called and explained that such was the condi- ton at the start of the Colony but that now the transportation was all under contract and the bus opera tors took care of their own equip ment. He said the present con- tracts at MatanuSka amounted to $13o per day for approximately 173 days.
 With this explanation the House voted down the Rogge amendment and moved the measure up to final action slated for tomorrow morning, the amount still standing at S65,- 000 If approved by the House it will then face the Senate's two- thirds rule which requires six votes to be accepted.
 Ross Asks Repeal
 In the meantime, the House has another transportation bill in the hopper, introduced by Ross of the Fourth, proposing to repeal that portion of the school law which

Massachusetts cnrust suddenly upon the national political horizon by the chain of events which placed Calvin Coolidge in the White House.
 Among the first of those sum- moned tc Washington by Mir Cool idge for political advice after the death of Warren G. Harding, MT Butler within little more than a year had made a name for himself as the manager of the Coolidge campaign and had succeeded to the seat in the United States Senate made vacant by the death of Hen " Cabot Lodge.
 Was No Novice
 While MT. Coolidge had called to the direction of his political destin- ies a man then little known outside his own state and by no means prominent politically within it's bor- ders, leaders of the party and the professional politicians generally were to learn, many of them in the somewhat bitter school of exper- fence, that the man was far from la novice.
 He had his training under the as- ute Murray Crane, for many years a power in Republican councils. That training was buttressed by the driving power and the keen business sense that had made William M. Butler one of the largest and most successful cotton manufacturers in the country

SLOUGH CLOSED 4.
TO HUNTERS

No duck or goose hunting will
be allowed in the slough between
the river bank and Barrett"s Island
this year, State Game Protector O..
E. Bennett warned local hunters
this week
Under a recent Interpretation of
the federal law, hunting is not per-
mitted within a quarter of a mile
of the high-water mark of the
Columbia river, Bennett stated.
The ruling, made number OF
years ago by the federal govern
ment, has caused considerable dis
pute since the wording merely
states that hunting Is not allowed
within one quarter mile of the Col
umbia river. If taken to mean the
present water level, hunting in that
slough would be legal.
Such an Interpretation of the law
was made by the state game de-
partment last year, and hunters
allowed to shoot migratory birds
there, but this season a stricter in
depreciation has been placed upon
the ruling, and that area has again
been closed to migratory bird hunt
ing, Bennett says.
The migratory bird season opens
November l and will continue UNI
til November 80. Hunting is legal
from 700 am. to 400 pm. during
that period.
Protected waterfowl include red
head, canvasback, wood, ruddy and
buffIehead ducks, Ross goose and
swans.
Bag limits on ducks are 10 in the
