On such a short and varied program, there's no need for an orchestra to wander off its own reservation. Nacho Ruffino Intrigued the crowd with his singing.

Molina essayed one dance, a tango with Rosita Duval, but It appeared to be chiefly an excuse to show off a pair of baggy, white, and fili-greed gaucho trousers, for we happen to know one member of the university faculty who can tango all around Molina with one foot in his pocket.

So we wish Molina and his orchestra would stick more closely to their own field, where they are excellent. Hero On the screen at the Orpheum, Richard Barthelmess wanders col- orlessly through a badly done pic- ture called "A Modern Hero." from Louis Bromfield's novel. It takes him from an equestrian act in a circus to the top in the auto business and then plumps him back to earth again. It is meant to depict the rise of a man through ruthless purpose to achieve money and power, but Barthelmess rarely achieves any very convincing appearance of ruth-l lessness, no matter what the effect of his actions on others.

Lucas. Suggests New License Limit Kraege Would Require Tax Payment No class A or licenses to sell beer and liquors will be granted for any premises on which the real estate taxes have not been paid, if the common council approves an ordinance presented Friday night by Aid. F. Halsey Kraege. It was referred to the ordinance committee.

An ordinance by Aid. R. J. Sutherland, fixing new license fees for boats carrying passengers, was sent to the same committee. Public hearings were ordered for Mayi25 on proposed zoning ordi nances.

One by Aid. Kraege provides that the north half of blocks 1 and 2, Mercer's addition, fronting on University be changed from commercial to light industrial district. The other, presented by Aid. H. L.

asks that lots 1 and 2, in block 1, Brown's addition to West Lawn, be changed from residence to commercial district. Garner said the lots are the only ones on Monroe st. not in commercial district. An ordinance by Aid. Frank Al-ford provides that no permits be granted for electrical wiring or installing of electrical apparatus unless satisfactory proof is furnished to the electrical inspector upon request that the applicant has been employed to perform the work or installation and will be responsible for performance thereof in the maner required by ordinance, nor until proof has been submitted that the applicant has paid to the city treasurer the fees required.

The measure was referred to the ordinance committee. Far East Olympics to Open at Manila MANILA, P. I.

La Follette is prepared to leave the republican party and swing the entire support of his progressive following into the third party movement were heard today after a meeting of Milwaukee progressive republican leaders. Progressive leaders who attended the closed session Friday night refused to be quoted but indicated they believed that the third party movement would be successful at the Fond du Lac conference May 19. A sharp battle is expected, however, since there is a strong faction in the La Follette group that feels the progressives would be committing political suicide by leaving the republican party. Regulars Enthused Regular republican leaders have greeted the possibility of a new party with unconcealed enthusiasm. They feel that a majority of voters who previously have cast their ballots for progressives will remain in the republican column.

They also are pleased at the prospects that the more radical elements in the party will not be classed as republicans. If Sen. La Follette decides to break away from the republican lanks he probably will carry with him all of the progressive officeholders. In addition, a flood of other candidates is expected as a result of the state supreme court's ruling legalizing a new political partv. Two La Follettes Too Many Former Gov.

P. F. La Follette, who headed the progressive committee which obtained the court ruling, has been mentioned as a candidate for governor. Most progressives, however, feel that to have both Senator La Follette and his brother on the ticket would be a risky political maneuver. Former State Sen.

Alvin Reis of Madison and Adjt. Gen. Ralph M. Immell have been mentioned as likely gubernatorial candidates. Twenty-one delegates to the Fond du Lac conference were elected at the meeting Friday night.

They were not instructed on the question of a new party. Meanwhile, Aid. Samuel Soref, a third party advocate who is not affiliated with the progressives, announced that an opposing slate of 21 delegates from Milwaukee county would be chosen May 21. Sorefs group will contend that they represent the genuine third party sentiment and should be seated at the conference in place of the La Follette progressive delegates. Duncan, Dam man Battle Thomas M.

Duncan, who quit the socialist party to become secretary to Gov. La Follette, was one of the speakers at Friday night's conference. He favors a new party. Opposing arguments were believed presented by Theodore Damman, secretary of state and the only major progressive candidate who survived the 1932 democratic landslide. In addition to Duncan and Dam-man, others named as the Milwaukee progressive delegates to the Fond du Lac conference were Gus-tave Dick, W.

He was hopeful the kidnapers would call and reassure him it was they who telephoned him Friday forenoon, placing $75,000 as the price of Gettle's freedom, and also would offer him guarantee the money would secure the prisoner's release He said he had the money ready for direct negotiations. Officers Suspend Hunt for Girl TUCSON, Ariz. (U.R) The kidnapers of June Robles 6, were given a freer hand to negotiate with her distracted family today by the withdrawal of all but two department of justice agents and by a diminution of all police activity. Ten federal agents were ordered back to Los Angeles to take up a new hunt in tracking down the kidnapers of William F.

Gettle. Peace officers returned to their regular duties. The almost complete cessation of police activity inspired Fernando Robles to new hope that the kidnapers of his daughter would answer his plea for them to accept $10,000 instead of $15,000 ransom money. An authoritative source said the father was more hopeful than ever that negotiations now could be carried out without interference.

C. JAHN United Tress Staff Correspondent ISTANBUL, Turkey Wrinkled, shriveled Zaro Agha, called the oldest man in the world, today disclosed the secret of his longevity. The answer: lots of wives, but one at a time. "Frequent wedlock, that's it," he said, as he paced the grounds of the hospital where he has been under treatment, stretching his legs tentatively and waving his arms to bring back, the circulation. His eyes, after his serious illness, had regained the sparkle that used to enliven them when on his visit to New York several years ago he entered a night club and watched the chorus.

Needs No Glands So well is the aged man feeling that he agreed to permit Dr. Bejet Sabit Bey to make the radiograph- ical tests of his bone conformations as recommended by Dr. Serge Voro-noff, monkey gland expert, to deter- mine whether he really is 164, as he claims, and how he got that way. Zaro opposed the tests fiercely when they were proposed. He had heard of Voronoff and was afraid he would be monkey glanded.

"I am all right as I am," he said. "When I need any rejuvenation I'll apply for it." Too Young: in Ideas He worried so much when doctors tried to presuade him to undergo the tests that he became ill. But he came back with the elasticity of a man one-eigth his age, and today was looking forward to leaving the hospital and finding a new wife his 13th. Eleven wives died at advanced ages. The, 12th left him, because she said his notions became too young after his American visit.

Zaro Agha lives with his eldest surviving son, who is 85. The son told the United Press that the only trouble the family had with Zaro was his fondness for girls. "He's always inviting them to come and visit him," the son said. support we can do it." Wileden Sneaks A. F.

Wileden, of the college's rural sociology staff, discussed "Rural Life in Wisconsin" this afternoon. After his speech, the Green Lake county rural normal school was to give demonstrations of folk dancing. Other demonstrations will be given tonight. At a dinner in Wesley foundation, Prof. J.

H. Kolb will speak on "The College's Responsibility with Respect to Rural Youth." Informal discussion groups were held this afternoon. Residents of the ninth, 11th and 14th wards will be given an opportunity to be heard before a council committee on whether they want the Madison Railways co. to continue their South Madison line tracks or permit removing of the rails. The common council Friday night deferred action on a resolution, presented by the street committee, to permit the company to remove Its rails at S.

Mills and Regent sts. and not replace them after the intersec tion has been paved. Aid. Henry A. Meyers opposed Immediate action on the resolution.

He feared the council would obligate itself to stand the expense of tearing up all the rails on the South Madison line, south of Regent st. City Atty. John T. Harrington was requested to investigate and give the council an opinion at its next meeting as to whether the city would be responsible. Aid.

Walter L. Plaenert, chairman of the street committee, said he had no objections to deferring action but he said something should be done to allow the company to remove its rails at the intersection so as not to hold up the pavement work. Harrington advised the council that for the purpose of paving the streets it is not necessary for the council to give permission for removal of the tracks. On his suggestion, a public hearing was ordered by the street committee to ascertain whether the residents of that section of the city want the car tracks abandoned. Plaenert said buses are giving much better service than street cars and that for a long time no cars have passed over the route.

However, he agreed with the city attorney that a public hearing should be held. Robert E. Sherwood's explanation of why the Carthagenian conqueror, Hannibal, turned back from the defenseless gates of Rome, as particularly suited to amateur presentation until we saw the Madison Civic players' present it Friday nigt at Turner Hall. "The Road to Rome" is one of those plays so well written and so entertaining that it takes a great deal of man-handling by the actors before it becomes unendurable. The Civic Players did a minimum amount of manhandling for an amateur group, and several of the performances were good.

Among those who certainly should be mentioned are Cyril Duckworth as Hannibal; Edna Taylor as Amy-tis; Carl Danhouser as Fabius Max-mus; Robert Koch as Mago; and Frances Dudley as Fabia. None of the performances could be called exactly polished, but on the other hand, none of them grated unduly on the nerves of the audience. On the whole, we should call It a successful production, The play itself is a gem of spicy humor with the underlying theme the transitory character of warlike power. Under the guise of history, it takes several swell pokes at foi-j bles as prevalent now as in 216 B. C.

It is a distinctly sophisticated play and a highly enjoyable one. at that. It is beine retreated this nftprn and tonight. Oscar Forton in auction. Hostesses were Mrs.

Main St Stouehton. Wisconsin. Phone 540-J. lou ought to know the sir owns Nearly 400 students of Wisconsin colleges attended the opening session of the second annual Wisconsin country life conference at the college of agriculture here this morning to consider the problems of the rural youth. Carl C.

Taylor, authority on rural life problems, spoke on "The New Deal and the Rural Youth." A vice-president of the American Country Life Taylor is also a member of a group working on the subsistence homestead problem. Reviewing President Theodroe Roosevelt's commission on country life, Dean Chris L. Christensen of the Wisconsin college of agriculture pointed out at the luncheon that agricultural efficiency of itself Is not sufficient to maintain farm prosperity. Gains Nullified The Roosevelt commission found four great forces which must be utilized to solve the problems of country life, Christensen said. They are knowledge, education, organization, and spiritual forces.

"The unfortunate part of our agricultural progress is that farmers have not been able to get their share of the benefits that should have accrued to agriculture through improved agricultural efficiency," he said. "In the last decade we have witnessed a situation in which economic policies of government have largely nullified the gains which farmers have looked for through efficient practices in farm production." Leaders Needed Pointing to the number of young people who have left the country for the city cu ring the last 20 years. Christensen declared that "it may be tnat agriculture has not been aDle to Sive its youth opportunities because it lost the type of young men women who could have given agriculture tne leaaersmp rs needs. "Rural leaders must be developed," he continued. Business technique must be worked out, and skill in cooperative organization perfected if farmers are to organize and cope successfully in the' con duct of their business in a corpor- and trained leadership can agricul- lure to resume its place in tne world.

There's Jim Brown, who sells life insurance, and Betty Brown who was a Jones before she married Jim. And there are the two Brown children: Jim, and Griselda. Like a thousand other the Browns are just start-to lift themselves out of the count-every-penny circumstances which the past few years imposed on them. But they have one advantage. Betty Brown studied economics during that time.

She didn't enroll at the University. She didn't take a special home-course by mail. She learned a great deal about buying from her daily newspaper. She followed the advertisements. She compared price and quality, and struck a practical balance between the two.

Today she knows how to buy so that Jim's bank account can begin to grow again. And she hasn't got pinch-nosed by doing it. In fact, one of the Brown's greatest delights is planning the weekly shopping tour. They virtually make a game of it, and always a profitable game. You ought to know the Browns.
