ing on this program and promise
each of us a delightful and hilar-
ious twenty minutes of fun.
By this time your curiosity

blanding' program consists of. It
will be in the form of a Moclf
"Wedding! Non? other than Storky

"Williams, the groom.
"What a perfect pair; we know
they will be exceedingly happy.
Sonny Learned will be the best
man and Bunkhouse, the matron
of honor. Bunkhouse will also
thrill the audience with some melo-
dious arias.
Joe (better known as Red or
Gabby) Boone will be the attract-
ive and colorful maid of honor.
Petite and charming: Paul McCon-
ache and John Gallaher will be the
flower girls, and Carl McConachie, '
B. J. Wisdom, Junior Morgan,
Harold Willoughby, and Billy La-
tham will be prettily dressed as
brides maids.
Glenn Collum has been rightfully
chosen to pronounce the happy
pair as "man and wife." Little
Ralph Castillo is to be the ring
hearer. Relatives of the bride,
mother. Rube Brown; father, Roy j
Kile, and brother, Stooge Sterling, ■
will also be in the wedding party, j

"Their aim," he said, "is to

telle Goodwin, and the following!
A new dance is sweeping out of
the West today and making such
a strong bid for national recogni-
tion that a motion picture already
has been named after it.
The dance has become so (Strong
and is the West's first contribu-
tion to national dancing. In the
past the dances have either come
out of the South—like the Charles-
ton and the Big Apple—or have
come out of Harlem.
But out in the west the colleg-
ians are really swinging it in the
craziest dance to be seen in years.
Even its most ardent devotees ad-
mit there is no sense to it and that
it out-apples the Big Apple. But
they insist that it is far more fun
to dance the College Swing than
any dance which has come along in
years.
The dance is a collection of kid-
that the University of Southern
''alifornia Pi Kappa Alpha chap-
ter turned its semi-annllal rush
party into a College Swing party
and it was a sensation on the cam-
' pus.
The dance is the "College Swing"

Why is she including part of. a

tually all the world, heard him de-
clare that German industry is
ready for "a rearmament program
such as has never been seen be-
fore,"
"Eighteen years ago," he said. "I
vowed I would fight the Versailles
Treaty and set up a people's army
and during the last -five years I
have succeeded in doing both."
His failure to mention any as-
surance on the independence of
Austria or add new details of the
Austrian - German understanding
was a major cause of European
anxiety.
His statement that the agree-
ment had liquidated an "unendur-
able situation" which was threat-
ening to precipatf a "grevous cat-
astrophe" was interpreted by some
as a plain hint to Czecho-Slovakia
to get right with Hitler before it
is too late.
I'niim Forseen
Such optimists saw a far-reach-
ing British, Italian, German, and
French agreement just around the
corner.
Any such four-power agreement,
Ihcy were convinced, would bring
U.S. FORESTER
and 3,000 feet long—tell-tale evi-
dence of erosion caused by over-
grazing, deforestation, and expen-
sive fires.
Statistics Given
In the same section of the coun-
try, coincident with his report, sta-
tistics show that land that has not
been abused loses only 27 pounds
of soil per acre annually; whereas
the land that has been burned
over, deforested, or over-grazed
loses more than one ton of soil per
acre in the same period of time!
Among the enemies of forests
and forest land, asserts Dr. Wheel-
er, are listed fires, excess deforest-
ation, and over-grazing. Fire is the
most destructive of all these haz-
ards of forest zones. Conflagra-
tions destroy not only the timber
of forests but valuable wild animal
life, and even human life in ex-
treme eases.
Land- Over-Grazed
Over-grazing began before the
Civil War when ranchers grazed
thousands and thousands of Long-
horns on a limited acreage. Even
the "razzor-back hawg" can root
up and destroy enough young pines
( in twenty-four hours to reforest
j sixty acres of land.
i From the realistic and practical
side of the question Dr. Wheeler
turned to the aesthetic side of hu-
man existence. Who should know
better than he the joys of living in
nature's worship?
His twelve years as head forest-
er in the state of Colorado have
equipped him with a remarkable
sense of values. This side was seen
throughout his evening here, most
emphatically portrayed when he
quoted from Edgar A. Guest, "A
fellow's at his best when he's out
fishing." In fact. Dr. Wheeler's
appearance and evident sincerity in
his work bespeak a hardy woods-
man and one who appreciates the
cultured and worthwhile side of
life.
