Many Take Part. By the Aesoclated Press. HOLLYWOOD, CWlif, March 12, +~Hollywood has become accustomed 10 its motion plcture luminaries, but now this cinema constellation is de- veloping its shooting stars as well, Although some of these marksmen are recruits from the *“westerns,” Bill Hart, Tom Mix and other leaders of that form of drama undoubtedly point shaming fingers at the new target sworshipers. For the shooting stars of Hollywood ronfine their efforts not to “shooting rons” but to the long bow and tufted arrow. Thelr skill is in biceps, rather than trigger fingers. It started in a movie. A group of actors on location in the filming of Joseph Conrad’s “Lord Jim"™ whiled away a luncheon hour by practicing &t a crude turget with the bows and arrows from a South Sea battle scene. Returning home, they continued the eport, but with imported yvew bows from Italy and Spain.

NEW HAVEN, March 12—The old saying that a woman’s place is in the home has a modern version that has been proven at Yale University. It is: When home economics are transplanted into man's domain, the woman wins out. For many years men managed Com- mons, in which the student body ate, Often the deficits were so large that a real problem was offered. Studen frequently rebelled because their stom. achs were not wholly with the menu: { Now that ) Cora C. Colburn has bheen forma ade director of Dining Halls at Ya ter two years' experi- mentation with her f{deas and menus, the university has announced that woman management has rounded the financial angles and lifted the student body above the dangers of dyspepsia. A policy at Yale for years placed re- sponsibility for student health as well as Intellectual training upon its offi- cers. The policy of “‘athletics for all,” which brought 90 per cent of the student body into training, was deemed lacking unless the university officers knew what the student ate. the Univer- ty of Chicago to work out the meal problem in Commons.
