The bluff didn't work for he'd done it once too often. And today all that Joseph Ferreira, 711 Hearst avenue, has to remind him of his spouse is a picture postcard.

Mrs. Ferreira left the family home last night after Patrolman C. Ipsen had been sent to investigate a "sutcide' 'attempt. "I'm dying," moaned the husband. "He's bluffing," declared the wife.

Patrolman Ipsen found the wife to correct, according to admission by Ferreira himself. Ferreiras have been involved in marital difficulties for some time, according to police investigation. Ferreira blames another man. Mrs. Ferreira declares her husband's queer actions are to blame.

Every time they had had a quarrel, she said, he turned on the gas and laid down to "die." But, somehow or other, he always changed his mind, said the woman.

0 0 0 U. of C. Girls Lack Beauty, Writer Wails Feminine Students Brainy, but--Says Critic in Campus Paper. BERKELEY, Fef. students at the University of California are not beautiful and do not even approach prettiness, a writer in the Daily Californian, student paper, declared today.

"Anybody can stand on Fourteenth and Broadway in Oakland and in one hour find more good looking women than that person could find all day on the campus," the anonymous article said. "The girls try to dress well but when it comes to the fact, it is either unashamedly homely or half- an inch thick with cream and powder. Either is supposed to be beautiful to the wearer but to the onlooker they are hideous." The reason for the lack of feminine pulchitrude on the university campus, the writer declared, is because "the good looking babes get married when they leave high school and only the homely but intelligent ones reach college. Nobody else would have anything to do with them." ROSENBERG IN SAN QUENTIN SAN QUENTIN, Feb. of the outstanding figures in the Julian Petroleum company scandal in Los Angeles, Ed H.

NEW TEXTBOOK REVISES SELF BERKELEY, Feb. -A "perpetual" testbook on psychology, which scholars say is designed so that it may never go out of date, is the latest thing in books offered by Prof. E. Jones of the University or California department of psychology. The new book, designed to be used in conjunction with other standard texts, cannot go out of date because it is printed in loose leaf form, so that new pages or new chapters may be added or substituted whenever later scientific research reveals their need, according to the author.
