The scene is a parade of alumni down the main street of a little college town. Hugh Herbert, jduntily stepping, is in the forefront, and freshmen caps adorn the bald pates of character | extras while pennants wave and jollity prevails. This merriment seems more con- gncing—the uniformed brass band playing a march, which makes it sound (at least) like fun, even in the heat. - Hungary Tries to Quiet <N Itching Feet of Gypsies BUDAPEST, May 30.—The Hun- garian government hopeful despite is making an- other attempt to reduce the wan- derlust of the nation’s hordes of gypsies.
