Into the turmoil enters Jean ENGLISH BANKER GIVES INTERVIEW LONDON, Oct. 13.—In the first interview he ever granted, Sir Montague Norman, head of the Bank of England, today emphasized the security of the German loan bonds. The banker adopted the unusual course of inviting the American correspondent to meet him. The statement he issued obviously was intended to aid J. P. Morgan & Co., in floating the $100,000,000 of the German bonds in the U.S., despite the fact that cables from New York Saturday forecast a great oversubscription of the American amount of the bonds. "The loan," said Sir Montague, "is safe and constructive. I believe that the lack of cooperation in Europe the last few years is now at an end. We have been looking backward. Now we are looking forward."

The picture array of talent includes Betty Blythe, Elliott Dexter, Lowell Sherman, Robert Wickwick, Burr McIntosh and Paul Garron. This story was an absorbing novel, but as a picture it is even more thrilling and exciting. It is a human story, vividly picturing today's life in the big cities. Into the turmoil enters Jean Bronson, unsophisticated yet possessed of beauty, talent and a goodly share of the worldly goods—money. But her path of happiness is not free of thorns. Old Carrington, her millionaire grandfather, cuts her off; her home is closed to her. Why? Because she saw fit to be honest with the man she loved, a handsome, athletic young man named Douglas Kenyon. In quick succession there follows a series of twists and turns to this thriller that enmeshes the principal characters and sends both through some perilous experiences. "The Spitfire" has a hero made of stern stuff, an alert, fighting active chap, who overcomes all kinds of odds in his battle to win the beautiful Jean. Miss Blythe appears as Jean, while Dr. Dexter plays the role of Kenyon. Tonight the six Banjo Kings will be seen in the unique musical act. Every one loves music of one kind or another and as these artists render all kinds of selections everyone is bound to be pleased, so do not miss this exceptional musical treat.

The Oregon Aggies thru Graduate Manager Carl Lodell today laughed off the ultimatum of Coach Gloomy Gus Henderson that his Trojans would not come north to play the Aggies Saturday in Portland unless the sawdust covering was removed from Multnomah field. Lodell dispatched word today to Gwynn Wilson, So. Calif. graduate manager, that the sawdust will not be removed. He pointed out that California teams have played on sawdust fields in the north before and said the covering was necessary due to heavy rains. “It’s pure bluff,” Lodell continued. “It is an attempt by Henderson to establish an alibi because perhaps he fears the Aggies. It is really laughable. We certainly will not remove the sawdust. If Henderson wishes to be a poor sport and break his contract that’s up to him.” Henderson’s ultimatum was telephoned to Lodell last night by Graduate Manager Wilson. A Class Ad is best little salesman.

MANY BIG GAMES NEXT SATURDAY NEW YORK, Oct. 14.—Sectional, intersectional and possibly national ranking may be determined by the outcome of Saturday's football games, comprising in toto the most impressive list ever compiled for an October weekend. Even at that immature date, it is altogether possible that the day will uncover a team destined to go on to national recognition as the championship outfit of 1924. Illinois and Michigan are potential candidates for that high honor. They will meet in the big number of the Western Conference schedule Saturday and, barring a tie, will decided middle western supremacy for the moment. This game outranks in consequence even the Army-Notre Dame affairs at the Polo Grounds, fairly briskening as it does with intersectional significance. Unlike the Army and Notre Dame, which contest annually, Michigan and Illinois haven't met in some years. Both laid just claim to the Conference title in 1923, however, and Saturday's game was arranged with the idea of deciding something. It will. Other meetings of consequence in the west call for Wisconsin to play Minnesota; Nebraska to take on Colgate and Southern California to face the Oregon Aggles in a Coast Conference game. All are of almost national importance. But they are no more so than the Dartmouth-Yale game at New Haven nor the Princeton-Navy meeting at Princeton. Usually, there are eight days in the week every time two such meetings occur at one and the same time. Dartmouth is on its way back after several misfit seasons, and thinks it has a possible champion.

BOBBED HAIR WAS STARTED IN 1776 A Boston girl, Miss Louise Thompson, began the Bobbed hair fashion back in the romantic exciting days when she said the story of D. W. Griffith's thrilling entertainment, "America," now showing at the California theatre. Private letters of that day tell the story of the defiant little brunette who shocked the powdered respectability of that time by shearing her hair which swept her knees as a defiance to show she was an American girl and would dress as she pleased. Style then came directly and severely from London. Every woman and nearly every man powdered the hair. Instances are told where a woman who had past SAYS TREES HURT, DEMANDS $20,000 Marking the first of a series of similar suits expected to hinge on the verdict of the first case, Herman Kolberg, prominent Orange rancher, today asked $20,408 from the Sherwin Williams Co., alleged to be the manufacturer of an orchard spray that Kolberg declared he used to the detriment of both his trees and fruit they were bearing. The particular type of spray, it was understood, was used by a number of Orange-co ranchers, and in each case, it was claimed, damage was alleged to have been done to the trees. So serious was the matter, farm bureau officials recalled, that a meeting was called a few months ago to discuss the spray and its effects, if any, on the trees upon which it was used. The matter, so far as the farm bureau was concerned, was dropped, it was explained at the time, when the company agreed to take its product from the market. That the company would fight any damage suits filed against it on account of the spray's use, was indicated, however, when it sent experts into the county to see the results and to study climatic conditions and other elements that would enter into any possible damage to trees. In view of these facts, court attaches expressed the belief that the trial would be hard fought and that decidedly technical grounds would be gone over before the pending suit was brought to a conclusion. Kolberg claimed he was approached by two men, Pinkney and Price, as agents of the company and that he was induced to buy the spray from an Orange firm. The product was sold as a cure for scale, it was maintained in the suit. The sale was effectively eliminated, Kolberg admits, but he also alleges that the fruit also was destroyed and the trees, as well, were almost killed.

Kemp Bros. 108 East Center St. We PROFESSIONALS POUND MARKET NEW YORK, Oct. 14.—Professional stock traders pounded the market from the opening gong today in an effort to dislodge stocks and to force a general liquidation in industrial and railroad shares. With the exception of the oil stocks, which appeared to be in a sold-out condition, the bears were in complete control of the situation today, and prices tumbled from 2 to 5 points from Saturday's high levels. Small traders joined with big professionals in selling stocks all over the board, and favorable economic and industrial developments were completely ignored. Rallies near the mid-day in some sections of the list followed the announcement of the great success of the German loan, and prices moved higher; but increases in prices of activity shares seemed to be the signal for another deluge of selling, particularly of the market leaders, and fresh declines were in order. American Can bore the brunt of the speculative selling and after opening fractionally higher at 130%, it sold down to 126 for a loss of four points. Baldwin declined from 120% to around 116; Woolworth from 106½ to 103; Cast Iron Pipe from 111 to 108½; U. S.

The rally which was well under way in these stocks in the first hour was nipped in the bud by the bears' raid on the market, but thereafter selling of the oils was light and losses small. In some stocks like Standard Oils, and Texas Co., fractional gains were retained. Pan-American Oil joined the reaction in the last hour, heavy selling of these stocks with consequent decline in prices did not unsettle the general market for oil stocks.
