C, THURSDAY, MARCH 25 1937 — e e CLEAN-UP OPENS Campaign Formally Closed With $73,223, but Hope for Goal Is Expressed. ‘With contributions totaling $73,~ chestra’s sustaining fund campaign was closed formally yesterday. At the same time Mrs. Walter Bruce Howe, general campaign chairman, received an enthusiastic response to a call for a clean-up drive to com- plete the canvass of prospective donors and announced that the goal of $110,- 000 would be reached. “We are absolutely sure of several thousand dollars more from former subscribers now out of the city, or who are for other reasons unable right now to make their usual con- tribution,” she said. Mrs. Howe expects that the orches- tra fund can soon claim the $5,000 offered by an anonymous donor on the condition that another $5,000 be raised in “new”, money. Approxi- mately $2,500 of this “new” money, representing gifts from new subscrib- ers, or increased amounts from former givers, was reported yesterday. This “new” money, it was pointed out yes- terday, has been included in contri- butions made to the fund since Sun= day, when the $5,000 offer was made. The combined reports yesterday | netted $8,845.15. The divisions report- | ed as follows: Special gifts, $2,77 men’s business, $905; women's busi- ness, $618; Army, $159.93; associa- tions, $1,100; civic, $605.50; education, $670.68; Government, $673.33; Junior League $700; Orchestra Guild, $256.25; suburban, $176.21; national, $150, and Navy, $53.25. AMERICAN SAMOA Lands in Tutuila Harbor After Tempestuous Trip of 1,546 Miles. BY the Associated Press. PAGO PAGO, American Samoa (via Pan-American Airways radio), March 25.—South Sea Islanders gazed in wonder at the giant Pan-American Clipper, which gracefully glided into | land-locked Tutuila Harbor today | after a tempestuous 1,546-mile cross- | ing from Kingman Reef. The four-motored flying boat, first | ever seen by the Samoan natives, | landed at 5:14 p.m., Samoa time (11:14 pm. Wednesday, Eastern standard time), after 10 hours and 35 minutes of almost continuous “blind flying” through cloudy, squally and windy weather. The flight was ,the third leg of a pioneering _trip * from Oskland, Calif, to Auckland, New Zealand. | Confronted with severe rain squalls' here, Capt. Edwin S. Musick said he and his crew of six would delay the | final 1,797-mile stage of their flight | for at least a day. | Despite inclement weather, the na- tives and United States naval officers | stationed at Tutuila gave the com- | mercial trail-blazers a rousing wel- | come. | Within a few miles of its destination the clipper lost a full day when it | crossed the international date line. EXHIBIT OF HOUSING TAKEN FROM CAPITOL | i T | Removed From Rotunda at Direc- | tion of Bankhead and Garner. By the Assoclated Press. A housing exhibit which occupied the rotunda of the Capitol for a week has been removed by direction of Vice President Garner and Speaker Bank- head. | “It wasn't that we weren’t in sym- pathy with the purposes of the Fed- | eral Housing Administration,” Bank- head said. “But many members of Congress had complained about the exhibit, which was taking up con- siderable space and obstructing the | ings around the rotunda.” e Parachute Exports Double. Parachuets and parts shipped from America to other countries last year were valued at $298,358, or nearly twice that of 1935. will Platinum Blond And Hennaed Hair Latest Male Style 30 Youths at St. Louis High School Create Stir. BY the Associated Press. ST. LOUIS, March 25.—With plati- num blond and hennaed heads held high, 30 male “pioneers of fashion” defied dagogical disapproval and derisic f of fellow students today, firm in their conviction “if it’s all right for the girls, it’s all right for us too.” tares and laughter greeted the yo\ths, students of suburban Webster Groves High School, when they ap- peared with locks dyed in varying shades, ranging from “bricktop” to lighter pinkish and golden to plati- num blond. “A foolish prank” was the com- ment of Principal J. T. Hixson, who said he had found no reason for the latest “extracurricular” activity and added that he did not wish to dignify it by inquiring. “Just for the heck of it” was the explanation of Bill “Red” Heath, Jjunior, who runs the 50-yard dash and tosses the javelin, while Henry Schulz, senior whose black hair has turned to gold, declared the novelty of the idea appealed to him. Gould Littlefield, senior, tossed platinum blond locks, rivaling Jean Harlow’s as he explained the technique of “rinses” and henna shampoos. And the girls—‘Oh, we think it's cute.” It's Spring in Webster Groves. “COUNCIL” PROPOSED TO PASS 2N CANDIDATES New York Legislator Offers Meas- ure to Select Those Seeking Judicial Office. BY the Associated Press. ALBANY, N. Y., March 25.—Estab- lishment of a “veto council” to deter- mine the character and fitness of can- didates for judicial office was proe posed to the New York Legislature today. Republican Senator Thomas C. Desmond, Newburgh, said the bill would provide that political parties and the people in nominating and electing “be restricted to candidates | certified as qualified.” Desmond said the proposal was de- signed to “free the judiciary from political influence and secure better qualified men on the bench.” POET IS STRICKEN Francis Donaldson in Serious Con- dition in Memphis. MEMPHIS, Tenn., March 24 (#).— Stricken by a heart attack while en route home from a St. Louis visit, Francis Donaldson, 34-year-old San Antonio, Tex., poet, underwent treat- ment in a hospital here today.

He was removed from his train here yesterday and taken to t-he hospital in a taxicab. & Easter Cards Beautiful designs and carefully selected sen- timents that will ex- press appropriately your greeting to friends and relatives. ‘BREO®D Engravers and Stationers 1217 G Street be a parade of l.MILLER successes Songs' will' beTwritten about~the shoes in' the (Easter parade, so glamorous are they!

NEW YORK LEGISLATORS APPROVE NEW BUDGET $370,139,937 Document Is Passed by Assembly Over G. O. P. Opposition. BY the Associated Press. ALBANY, N. Y., March 25.—Dem- ocratic Gov. Herbert H. Lehman’s “million - dollar - a - day” budget for 1937 bore the Legislature’s stamp of approval today, despite a Republican assertion it ic out of balance more than $38,300,000. The record-shattering $370,139,937 document previously passed by the Senate obtained Assembly approval last night, 105 to 30, after two hours of discussion, during which both Re- publican and Democratic heavy ora- torical artillery was brought into ac- tion. All negative votes were cast by Republicans. The greater portion of the budget Governor must approve several changes made by the fiscal commit- tees of both houses since it was trans- mitted to the Legislature February 1. At the same time, the Assembly concurred with the Senate in approv- ing proposals continuing all existing taxes—including six emergency im= posts.
