Miss Iva Spivey, daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. Jim Spivey of Lampasas,
was among the students on the hon-
or roll of the Southwest Texas State
Teachers College at San Marcos. The

proximately 16 per cent of the total
number of students enrolled in the
college for the first semester. This
is Miss Spivey’s second year in the
college and she is taking five sub-
jects, the regular course. She has
made good grades ever since enroll-
ing and her many friends here will
be glad to learn of the honor she has
merited.

Don’t put off marriage so long as
to allow someone to intervene, is the
lesson of “Chance at Heaven,” RKO-
Radio’s version of the Vina Delmar
story, starting Sunday at the Bailey
Theatre, featuring Joel McCrea, Gin-
ger Rogers, Marian Nixon and Andy
Devine.
This romantic tragedy provides the
theme of “Chance at Heaven.” Gin-
ger and McCrea are seen as the small
town girl and boy who are working
their way toward the altar and a
bungalow built for two when Marion
Nixon comes along, as the wealthy
little beauty from the city, and sweeps
McCrea off his feet. Mistaking in-
fatuation for love, he marries her;
not realizing that his first love is the
real love until it is too late.
How it all works out is said to
provide one of the most startling
climaxes to reach the screen in re-
cent months.
“Chance at Heaven,” adapted from
Miss Delmar’s story, is said to be as
absorbing and true-life as her “Bad
Girl.”
AUSTIN, Feb. 23.—Differences of
the two houses of the Texas legis-
lature with reference to unemploy-
ment relief bills still apparently were
far from settled tonight.
Conference committees were at
work trying to compromise the vary-
ing ideas of providing for another
issuance of state bonds, proceeds to
go to the needy, and the manner of
providing for a moratorium against
forced sales of mortgaged property
pending recovery from the existing
depressed financial conditions.
The group working on the mora-
torium held another meeting today,
but was unable to get together on
what provisions an agreed bill should
contain.
Dissension in the house committee
was revealed when Representative B.
F. Vaughan of Greenville, chairman,
said it appeared the conferees would
not agree and asked that a new com-
mittee be named, but later withdrew
his request.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 23.—Presi-
dent Roosevelt today signed the $40,-
000,000 crop production loan bill with
the declaration that it should be the
last of this kind.
“A useful purpose will be served,”
said the president, “by aiding cer-
tain farmers who can not yet quali-
fy for crop production loans from
the newly established Production
Credit Association. However, where
farmers have security to offer this
year, they should be required to ob-
tain their loans from the associa-
tion which has been established to
give farmers a permanent sort of
production credit.
“This 1934 loan by the government
should be considered as a tapering-
off loan and should be the last of
its kind.”
The new crop loan policy was an-
nounced at a press conference where
it also became known that the presi-
dent was drawing plans for a re-
bidding on air mail contracts with
private industi-y.
Roosevelt noted today that the
Army was doing its job of carrying
the mail.
It also developed that the presi-
dent has called a conference of his
principal aides for Monday to map
out a foreign trade program, includ-
ing a bill to give the executive au-
thority to bargain on tariffs with the
other powers.
In response to inquiries, the presi-
dent expressed the view that nation-
al committeemen, if they were going
to bid on contracts involving federal
funds, should give up their party
posts as a matter of ethics.
The secretaries of state, commerce
and agriculture will meet with the
president on the foreign trade policy.
In this connection it was re-empha-
sized that Roosevelt felt his state-
ment proposing the sugar quotas was
clear enough and should cause no un-
due concern. It was recalled that
the sugar quotas for the Continen-
tal United States, Hawaii, Puerto
Rico and the Virgin Islands were
based upon consumption demands.
The president also said that be-
cause separate quotas were applied
to the territorial islands certainly no
deduction should be drawn that they
were not regarded as a part of the
United States.
Details of the plans for reorgan
izing the air mail system were not
disclosed.
The president joined the nation in
deploring the deaths of Army avia-
tors carrying the mail but noted that
the Army was carrying outfits task
AUSTIN, Feb. 22.—A state-wide
meeting of truck owners will be held
at Waco on Tuesday, February 27,
according to statement issued today
by Dewitt Hicks, Waco, president of
the Texas Motor Transportation As-
sociation for the pui-pose of discuss-
ing the recently approved NRA code
for the trucking industry.
“In sending the code to President
Roosevelt for approval, General
Johnson emphasized its importance
to the whole recovery program by
estimating that it would immediately
put 300,000 men to work throughout
the country. The trucking code is
important to shippers as well as to
truckers themselves because of the
opportunity offered to stabilize what
has always been a chaotic industry.
“All truck owners,” Mr. Hicks ex-
plained, “except farmers who haul
their own produce to market, and
such industrial operators as are
covered by some other code, will come
under this code. Every truck owner
must register before April 11, and
must carry the NRA insignia for the
industry after that date. The code
becomes effective February 25.”
Walter Beck, former member of
the Texas Legislature, who has rep-
resented Texas in drafting the code,
will return from Washington for the
meeting.

‘CONVENTION CITY’ IS

ALL STAR COMEDY HIT
AUSTIN, Feb. 28.—The Texas
house today engrossed but failed fi-
nally to pass a bill designed to aid
independent merchants by levying a
heavy occupation tax on chain stores.
Final passage was blocked when
the rule requiring bills to be read on
three separate days was not suspen-
ded by a margin of four votes.
Proponents of the tax resorted to
parliamentary strategy to engross the
bill by putting on the previous ques-
tion, thus cutting off a flood of amend-
ments and limiting debate.
An amendment to tax gasoline fill-
ing stations and chain lumber yards
was created.
Chances for final passage of the
px-oposal were regarded as slim be-
cause of the short time remaining in
the session.

OKLAHOMA CITY, Feb. 23.—Some
day “common colds” will be quai’an-
tined as contagious diseases now are
segregated, Dr. Thomas T. Carmody
of Denver said today at the regional
meeting of the American College of
Surgeons.
When that is done, Dr. Carmody
said, medical science would make real
progress against colds.
“It is logical that we should quar-
antine,” he said, “for we are finding
all the time that common colds are
basic cause of most of the complaints
of the head and lungs, including deaf-
ness, blindness, brain irregularities
and the various sinus complaints.”
Dr. Carmody lauded the modern
custom of leaving children’s legs bare.
“This custom has done much for
the—health of the American child in
every respect. Mothers should real-
ize that such procedure is simply get-
ting these pai’ts of the body tough-
ened.”
The two-day conference closed to
day.

Comedy, that is said to be the most
uproariously funny that has come out
of Hollywood in many a long day,
will be forthcoming on the screen of
the Leroy theatre when the new First
National picture, “Convention City,”
with a splendid all star cast is shown
next Sunday and Monday.
The stoi’y by Peter Milne, presents
an extraordinarily unique idea, deal
ing with riotous happenings during a
salesmen’s annual jamboi-ee at At-
lantic City. Fifiend wife is likely to
sit up and take notice if her husband
happens to be one of those who at-
tends conventions without her.
The action is said to be fast and
furious, beginning with the assem-
bling of the salesmen and following
them through a week of riotous es-
cfcpades to a smashing climax in
which a hotel, as well as reputations,
is neai’ly wrecked. The dialogue by
Robert Lord is said to be lively and
sparkling and the situations hilarious
with its multiple entanglements.
There is an all star cast headed by
Joan Blondell as a gold digging chor-
us girl who dotes on conventions
Others include Adolphe Menjou, Dick
Powell, Mary Astoi’, Guy Kibbee,
Frank McHugh, Patricia Ellis, Ruth
Donnelly, Hugh Herbert, Hobart
Cavanaugh, Grant Mitchell and Gor-
don Westcott.
Like “Union Depot,” “Central
Park” and “Grand Hotel,” the scenes
take place in one central location,
practically all the sequences occur-
ring in the Atlantic City hotel, the
headquarters of the conventionists.
Unlike them it is pure, unadulterat-
ed comedy, for while the situations
are dramatic and heart rending to
the characters involved, they are rib
crackers for the spectator.
Archie Mayo, ace comedy director,
handled “Convention City.”
