pleted the summer campaign.
As cold swells the need for coal and fuel oil -.
and as the thunder of war industry rises to a new

War and Time Fail to Dim
Student Prince Popularity

THE POPULARITY Of the mu-
sic and love story Of the Student
Prince" has not dimmed. nor will
it dim soon if the reaction Of the
Sunday night audience at the CasS
theater TO the Shuberts' newest
presentation is any indication.
No slackening of appreciation
for Everett Marshall's Golden
Days" nor Frank Hornaday's
"Serenade" was noticeable because
the setting Of the songs repre-
sented what might be. any night, a
target for American bombardierS.
Neither did the outdated humor of
the piece detract.
Neither setting nor humor can
affect this traditional presentation

THE NOVEL. which for a time
was the Stepchild of the motion
picture industry. has returned 10
favor in Hollywood. Current sta
tistics show that the trend toward
pictures based on the novel form
is greater than ever; according 10
the 1912 awards, best-sellers hit
the bulls eye.
Mrs. Miniver." for example,
which won the majority Of acad-
envy awards offered for the best
picture of 1912 is based on Jan
Struther's book. a series of
sketches about an English family'S
experiences during the blitz OF
1910. While the picture version
was considerably expanded in its
screen adaptation, the fundamental
characters remained true.
Random Harvest is another
picture whose best-seller reputa-
tion preceded it. James Hilton
who has written so many engag-
ing novels, among { the m Lost

not a native plant Of Ireland.
The white potato. as we may bet
ter call it, was first found In South
America. The Inca Indians were
raising it when the Spaniards first
entered Peru.
About four centuries ago. potatoes
were taken to Spain. Later, they
were grown In the Netherlands,
France and Italy.
The exact date when white pota.
toes were first planted IN the British
Isles IS not known, but both Sir
John Hawkins and Str Francis
Drake have been given credit for
taking them back home from the
New World.
One record says that potatoes
obtained by Drake in the West In
dies were planted in Ireland in
1886. This record, however, may
refer to the sweet potato, which
belongs to a different family than
the white. q
In any case, the white potato was

In addition to his work with the

ties.
II have followed the work Of the

with the merit of the work it does
and the essential need of its type
of activity in taking to business men
effective interpretations of Govern
mental regulations, the former OPA
chief said. II feel that my work
with the institute will be one of the
best contributions I can make at this
time toward aiding both Govern

and 1t became important there.
When other crops failed, potatoes
usually grew well enough, and that
saved the Irish from famine more
than once. The time came when
they depended on white potatoes
more than on any other crop.
The white potato is said to have
been planted in North America for
the first time in 1719, by Scotch
Irish settlers in New Hampshire.
If that Is true, the South American
vegetable Travelled both ways across
the Atlantic before reaching our
continentl
Potatoes now grow In most in
habited parts Of the earth. In Rus
sia, Poland and Germany, they are
close to being "the staff Of life"
and in wartime they have been
used in making potato bread"
White potatoes will grow In al
most any climate. They have been
raised with little success even
around the Arctic Circle!
White potatoes grow below the
ground, but they are swellings of
the lower stem OF the plant. not
roots. The real roots grow below
and around the "tubers."
Sweet potatoes, on the other hand,
are the actual plant roots. They
are believed to be natives of North
America as we'll as South America,
They may also be native to Africa
and Asia.

South's six-spade bid was Just
about as horrible as one could find
in a months tour of the worst
bridge games, but, because OF
perfect combination of crcum-
stances, it would have had remarka-
BILE success except for a beautiful
defensive play produced by East.
West opened the club king. De-
clarer ruffed and led a low trump
to the queen. At this point almost
every player in the world, sitting
East, would seal his own doom by
making perfectly natural play. e.,
winning the trick. But note how
this would put the contract ION ice"
Declarer would win any side suit
return and, being unable to enter
dummy for finesse, would be
forced to make the winning play OF
laying down the spade king.
This particular East, however, saw
IN flash that he could lose nothing
by ducking the spade queen. What
he might win was, OF course. not
clear, but at least he did not have
to fear that declarer, given entry to
dummy, could take any winning
f1nesse-East had no card that could
be f1nessed. So East nonchalantly
ducked. And now see what this did
to declarer! Apparently the spade
ace was in Vests hand. Hence, on
spade return from dummy, the
obvious play when East followed
with the flve-spot was to put in the
10, trying to shut out the jack. West,
however, gravely produced that key
card and the contract was down one.

NEW YORK, March 27.-The

climbers finished the halliday pro-

From Monday on investment and
speculative buying spurred virtually
all groups. Demand was attributed
partly to expansion of idle funds

Wheat Market Dips
As Hedging Uncovers
Scarcity Of Bids
Rye Also Turns Down,
But Oats Muintoin
Firm Undertone
BY WILLIAM FERRIS,

AoooSiAaeu IIcSS FlHAHClAl WIlLer.
CHICAGO. March 27.-Moderate
hedge selling uncovered a scarcity of
bids in the wheat pit today and
prices slumped in quiet trade. Rye
was down with wheat, but oats
maintained firm undertone.
Wheat closed h-5s lower, May,
$1.44A Is; July, $1.45-$1.45h; corn
was unchanged at ceiling, May,
$l01; oats advanced M, and rye
declined h-A.
There was little incentive to buy
wheat in view of the uncertain leg
lslative picture, most traders pre-
ferring the sidelines until they see
whether the Bankhead bill receives
presidential approval or is voted.
The measure would prohibit deduc-
tions of benefit payments in setting
ceilings.
Approval of the bill would raise
the flour ceiling, and therefore have
a stimulating influence on wheat,
traders said. 1t was considered pos
sible that it would ultimately result
in a 1-cent advance in the price of
bread. Corn ceilings would be au-
tomatically lifted.
