Ole Miss became again tonight the mighty Mississippians and defeated St. Louis University, 21 to 7. Marquette was pressed to de feat St. Louis by one touchdown two weeks ago. The Red and Blue played a whale of a good ball game, threatening St.

Louis many times and despite bad breaks the margin of victory the Oxford outfit was decisive. Rab Rodgers and Dave Bernard in the back field and Bruiser Kinard and Tex Nelson in the line were Ole Miss brightest luminaries, with the Hapes brothers looking mighty good in the closing periods. Ole Miss scored before the game was four minutes old, when Rodgers took a full spinner oft tackle for forty six yards and Bernard dived over for the score from the one "yard line. Richardson converted perfectly. In the third period, a dandy punt return by Rodgers, a pass to Bartling from Clarence Hapes and Rodgers dazzling reverse- for a few scant yards added the second score.

Clarence Hapes scored Ole Miss third touchdown in the third period on an end run after Ber- nard backed St. Louis up against their own goal line with excellent punting out of bounds. Richard- son kicked his third successive point. A long pass gave St. Louis Its only scoring opportunity and the team came tnrougn witn its lone touchdown with Hermany carry- ing the ball over center.

Rab Rodgers received the open- ing kickoff on his own seven- yard line" and 'made a brilliant return to the Ole Miss 27. On the first snap of the ball, Peters went off right tackle fr v5 down on the Ole Miss 37-yard Rodgers hit the line for one yard and Ole Miss was Penalized fiveyards for offsides as Bernard stepped two yards.

Thomas and exportation, instead of into the the hours of a nrivat M. Lally, Friday night at The much-talked-of highway paving bill which Governor Conner is requested to submit to the cur rent extraordinary session of the legislature was made public yester day by the Citizens Highway associ etion, sponsor of a plan to launch the state upon a $46,000,000 highway improvement program. Among the essential features of the proposed measure is the creation of a central organization to be known as the "Mississippi Highway Bond Authority" and composed of five business men for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of the bill.

The operation of the "autnor ity," however, is subordinated more or less to the state highway com mission js it now exists. The "authority" is to receive and soend the money to be used in car rying out the proposal to pave 2,500 miles of highway in tne state, du the administrator to have charge of the work is to be named by the present highway commission and is to serve at the win or tne commis Eion, not to exceed four years in any case. Members of the "authority" are to be appointed by the governor within 10 days from the passage of the act, and the administrator must be named within 30 days from the aDDOintment of the "authority." The bill provides that in the event a competent administrator cannot be found in Mississippi, the commis sion may employ an engineer upon the recommendation of the chief of eneineers of the U. S. Army or oi the United States Bureau of Public Roads.

The compensation of the administrator is to be fixed by the the members of which txz.f no pay. The bill sets out in detail the various roads to be included in the These roads traverse al most every section of the state and the system includes ail or tne iea-eral aid roads of the state and a number of state or secondary roads. The system proposed to be inaugurated under the provisions of the act involves an expenditure of approximately $46,000,000. The bill undertakes to set up a dual organization the new authority with an executive director or administrator and the present highway commissionso balanced in the exercise of power under the act that the one operates as a check against the other. Sponsors of the measure declare that "it does not assume to take away any of the present authority of the state highway commission but merely to provide the special Instrumentality, subject to that commission, for doing the specific job of paving set forth the proposed act." Copies of the proposed bill were released yesterday afternoon a short time after the completed draft was sent to Governor Conner at the executive mansion for study and consideration.

It is understood that the goveror is more or less familiar with the general provisions of -the bill, having held a number of conferences with officials and members of the highway association backing the plan. It will likely be several days, now-ever, before the governor will reach a decision as to whether he will submit the proposal with the sample bill to the legislature for its consideration. (Continued from Page One) sleeping citizens were awakened to find their bed swaying, their houses creaking, and the dishes rattling in their cabinets. Frightened and nauseated, they swamped police and newspaper switchboards with calls for information. Geologists attributed the 'quake, which began shortly after 1 am.

(EST) and continued for' more than an hour and a half, to a shifting of the earth's crust in response to the lifting of glacier pressure years ago. Dr. Chester A. Reeds of the American Museum of Natural His tory described it as "one of those Instantaneous reactions that the earth makes to adjust the pressure on its surface." Thousands of years are but a geological second to the earth, he explained. One death was attributed indirectly to the 'quake.

Mrs. Cather ine A. cook, 66, died in Water-town, N. of heart disease, ag gravated, her physician said, by fright. Dominion observatory officials fixed the epicenter at about 180 miles northwest of Ottawa, which was in fairly close agreement with the calculations of United States stismologists.

Rumbling across the border into the United States, the tremors shook all of New England and the area bounded by Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, West Virginia and Maryland. To the north, the shocks were felt in Quebec and New Brunswick, as well as in Ontario. Coincidentally, an aftershock occurred in Montana, adding upwards of half a million dollars to the $3,000,000 damage toll caused by previous quakes during the last 20 days. Expressing certainty that there will be similar following shocks in the east, Dr. L.

Don Leet, Harvard University seismologist, said there was "no connection whatever, as far as we know, between this quake and the Helena, quake." So violent were the tremors in Harvard, that one of the university's six instruments was thrown out of commission and another "went crazy for about 15 minutes," Dr. Leet said. No respecter of persons, the quake awakened President Roosevelt at Hyde Park and sent secret service men on a search tor the cause of the disturbance. New York City, reputedly immune to violent earthquakes, felt the shocks but a hurried survey showed no damage was done to its intricate system of subway tuc nels, bridges and surface DAMAGE Miss Mary E. Dorsey, of Greenville was elected president of the Mississippi State Nurses' association which closed Its two day convention here yesterday afternoon after deciding that the 1935 meeting of the convention would be held in Vicksburg.

Endorsement of immunization against diphtheria as a statewide project of the association was voted as the resolutions committee reported submitted the proposal. Other officers selected were Vema L. Clark, Vicksburg, first vice-president; Mary D. Osborne, Jackson, second vice-president; Mary H. Trigg, Greenville, third vice president: Catherine Kent, Jackson, fourth vice president; Susie Collins, Biloxi, fifth vice-president; Bertie Jones, Sanatorium, secretary; Clara Kitchens, Greenville, treasurer.

Miss Dorsey is superintendent of nurses at the Kings Daughters hospital at Greenville and succeeds Mrs. Tama B. Tatum, superintendent of nurses at the Jackson Infirmary, as president of the orgazzi zation. Class Meeting The report of the tellers on the balloting, the report of the committee on resolutions closed the business part of the final meeting and were followed by installation of the new officers. The convention came to a close shortly after three o'clock yesterday afternoon.

Yesterday's activities were begun by a Red Cross breakfast, and at 8:45 the public health section convened to hear Dr. Felix J. Underwood, executive officer of the state 1 -Xl VI ry' "caa 01 iae unit oi the state board, and Mrs. Syd vaugn" ficnneiaau addressed the assembly. Dr Underwood spoke of the great envelopments in public health work during the past few decades and traced the efforts in MLlirrd from -1799 to the present.

Millsaps college eked out a 21-20 victory over the Louisiana Tech varsity gridders here tonight before a crowd of about 3,500 fans. The Majors of Jackson, scored all three of their touchdowns on forward misses, while the Tech-men tallied their three through running attacks. It was the Techsters' first defeat of the season, in which they had previously amassed a total of 128 points to their opponents' none. Both Teen ana iviuisaps waged most of the battle on aboTIt even terms. Neither team scored in the first quarter.

Tech counted first in the sec ond period, when Hewett, full back, plunged through center. Two of Millsaps' markers came in the second quarter, one when Mc Daniel took a pass from- Jones and broke loose for a 60-yard run which crossed the goal line, and the other when McDanlel caught Jones' pass and darted from Tech's 10-yard stripe to cross the goal Both teams added a touchdown in the final quarter.

Price, state auditor of public accounts; Lewis S. May, state treasurer and A- H. Stone, chairman of the state tax commission; have certified to me that they have reached the conclusion "that a reduction In the state's ad valorem levy for 1935 from eight mills to mills is amply justified," and have recommended that a rate of four mills be fixed as the ad valorem ta levy for the year rate would give effect to the maximum reduction permitted under the "Act" of the legislature, and have certified, according to law that said four mills, together with other revenues, "will be sof ficent to pay the obligations of the state during the year 1935, without the collection of the entire eight mill and, "Whereas, after a careful investigation of the matter, I am also of the opinion that a state ad valorem tax levy of four mills, together with the revenues of the state procured from other sources, will be more than sufficient to pay the obligations of the state during the year 1935: "Now, Therefore, Sennett Conner, governor of the state of Mississippi, under and by virtue of the authority vested in me by said chapter 123, laws of 1934, do hereby reduce the state ad valorem tax from eight mills to four mills for the year 1935, and I hereby notify the boards of supervisors and the tax collectors of the several coun ties of the state that the rate for the state ad valorem tax for said year 1935 is hereby fixed at four mills per dollar of assessed valuation.

The little girl was injured near the intersection of the two streets when the motorcycle, Hemphill Drug store delivery vehicle operated by Harvey Bradford, col lided with an automobile driven by A.

E. Gully, of the Union De pot Service Station. Police said the automobile was going north on State street and was turning west on Amite while the motorcycle was traveling south on North State. DEATH HE WANTED PUEBLO, Oct. 31 JP) Hanley G.

Conn, Wyoming air ser vice pilot killed in a crash near Cheyenne, last night, met the kind of death he wanted. "When my time comes, I want to go that way," he was quoted today by airport attendants here as saying when Al Lucas, also a Wyoming air service pilot, was killed in an airplane accident in Wyoming earlier this year. Lucas had taught Cohn how to fly. Construction in Jackson During October is Far Above Period Year Ago An unbelievable gain of 1230 percent in building construction during the month of November 1935, over the same period during 1934, Is seen in the monthly report of the city engineer's office. Building permits issued for new construction during the past month, as shown in the report, totaled $104,567, as compared with only $8,560 in October, 1934.

W. P. Bridges, state director of the Federal Housing Administration, government agency designed to promote construction of new residences and aid in refinancing existing mortgages, estimated that the Administration had financed approximately 60 percent of the new construction in Jackson during the past month. A large proportion of the new construction during the period consisted of residences, with permits for the new Mlilsaps gymnasium, and a unit of the Union Fork and Hoe company included in the list of permits. A total of 20 permits were issued during the month.

In the period, 19 permits for additions and remodeling, valued at $15,469 were issued by the engineers office. A total of 118 permits were given for fire-proof roofs with an estimated value of The total of all building permits was 157, at a cost of $131,141. The remainder of the report showed 86 permits issued for electric work valued at 36 for plumbing, valued at and 509 for gas piping, at a cost of $18,450. The total of all permits was 788, with an estimated valuation of $158,491. TEXT COMMISSION ORGANIZES BODY Martin Hemphill Elected Secretary at Meeting Here Yesterday Organization moves and selection of a definite date for its adoption meeting yesterday featured a meet ng of the high school text book commission, recently appointed by Governor Conner.

The 'gathering, attended by all the commission members, was held in the office of W. F. Bond, state superintendent of education. Martin Hemphill of Philadelphia was elected secretary of the commission which set December 17 as the date on which it will adopt text books in English and mathematics for use in the high schools in the state for the next five years. Those two subjects will be the only one In which the texts will be changed or retained, it was said yesterday, due to the "stagger system" em ployed by the commission which provides that only a small number of subiects be considered each year, Members of the commission attending the meeting were: Martin Hemphill, secretary, Philadelphia; W.

F. Bond, ex officia chairman; E. Mauldin. Aberdeen; Luke G. Wallace, Coffeeville; D.

R. Patterson, Ruleville; J. S. Hattox, Winona; D. O.

LEIGHDEN BEATS LOTT IN MATCH More slams per square inch and by far more viciousness on the part of the wrestlers than have been seen here many a month were exhibited last night as Charlie Leighden kept his record of no defeats clean at the expense of Kid Lott last night. Charlie took the first laii in comparatively gentle 'style, only using flying tackles and a front body cover.

All during the second fall, Lott used his hand around Leighden's throat to his advantage and when he had the Texan almost out, he applied a new and particularly vicious hold, the thunderbolt, and aDDarentlv would have beaten Charlie to death had not Skid-more, the referee, stopped him and given him the fall. Charlie came back fighting mad in the last and immediately took the upper hand with a reverse chin lock, followed by body slam after body slam. Lott was out on his feet, it appeared, and Skid-more asked Leighden to pin him, but Charlie refused and kpet butting him. Lott woke up long enough to get in some body blows, but Charlie floored him with an elbow and pinned him with a front cover. In the semi-final George Li go sky proved to be no different than when he left here last time and used everything he could think of to win over Verne Clark.

He wasnt good enough, however, and Clark took the only fall and the match with an Indian death clutch.
