Miss Barrie held court backstage in the Belasco theater * where she is rehearsing for her new play, "The Return of Hannibal," by Amory Hares. "I don't know much about it myself,” she replied when questioned about the theater, "you see, I'm Just starting out."
As she sat there in the midst of rehearsals, with the cast out front

American foreign service in con- : up and down, costumers hurrying about—the very world of the theater carrying on about her—Miss Barrie seemed far removed from the former student of Journalism and dramatics.
Remains Cool Instead, a cool poised young woman sat and offered advice to Trojan women students in fields with which she was familiar. “Unhappy as it may sound, the woman who enters the field of journalism and who works on a newspaper ls noi* always the happy heroine that the movies portray. The typical sob sister becomes a peculiar type of person, disliked by her fellow reporters.” Miss Barrie said that thc woman reporter is constantly shoved around, and often sent out on stories involving gruesome accidents. "Thus they become very cynical and care for little but their stories" They are more wily than the men reporters and will not take no for an answer to their questions. In closing her discussion on women ln journalism Miss Barrie said that sob sisters were no longer women; they were animals looked down on by their fellow reporters.
Place Is There "However there ls a placc in the field of journalism for the woman who enters the specialized field, for there she finds all the romance and drama so often associated with the newspaper,” declared Miss Barrie.
While she discredited the idea that it is necessary to go to collegc to become a reporter, Miss Barrie claimed that a college background was necessary for anyone who planned to enter the theater. “One Is born with an ability to act. but you can gain much in study," said Miss Barrie. There are many advantages in attending a coeducational university notably the contacts gained in being with men in the classrooms. In speaking of the dramatic schools that have become so popular, she claimed tnat they are mere institutions where the old fashion variety of elocution ls taught; 99 out of 100 give very poor theory, and on the whole they are not worth attending. Miss Barrie gives much credit to Hunter college where she had an excellent course in speech work.

Icke* Appointed Chairman
President Acts as Report Shows Need of Curb In Authority Feud
WASHINGTON, Jan. 18.— (UP) — President Roosevelt moved tonight to expand his ‘■yardstick" power policy, developed in the TVA experimental laboratory, on a na-tion-wide scale.
He named Secretary of Interior Harold L. Ickes as chairman of a special five-man committee charged with drafting a national policy for the generation, transmission, distribution, and sale of power produced on government hydro-electric projects.
Named to serve with Ickes were Robert E. Healy, securities and exchange commissioner; Morris L. Cooke, rural electrification administrator; Frank R. McNinch. chairman of the federal power commission; and Frederick A. Delano, Vice chairman of the national resources board. Ickes, in the role of PWA administrator, has supervised federal loans to municipalities for construction of publicly-owned utility systems.
The president acted tonight as reports were current that he would j have to intervene soon to placate a bitter feud rocking the Tennessee valley authority directorate and threatening successful administration of the vast southern power project.
The White House made public a copy of a letter sent to Ickes and his colleagues on the new committee in which Mr. Roosevelt said that legislation to deal with the power situation "is immediately necessary."

Prospector Belies Storybooks Nt'iv Drug Discovery Beats Science
Hy Elizabeth Brbout
Twenty years in advance of science is Frank Perry, aged gold prospector of San Gabriel canyon. This information is on the authority of Leo Bittel and Jerry Hashlmoto, students in the College of Pharmacy, who recently discovered that Perry has been using a drug, new to medical science, for j nearly a quarter of a century.

"I’ve cured my j Azusa, the old prospector keeps I himself In what the pharmacy students term "perfect health" by means of cascara Californicus. a I medicinal herb which Is just begin-I ntng to be recognized as a reputable drug
Twice a year for 20 years, Perry has gone to a spot near his corrugated iron shack to peel bark from a special tree He has stored the bark, letting it dry until he needs it. When he is ill, he has made a tea from it, following the same prescription' for any sickness —three inches of bark to a pint ol I water.

The pharmacists affirmed his statement and explained the reason for his health.
"Cascara Californicus. since Its recent discovery, is rapidly replacing the orthodox cascara sagrada,” asserted Bittel. “The new drug lacks the many disadvantages of the old since it ls more abundant, since it need not be dried for a year before lt may be used, and since lt loses none of its toxic principles with time ”
Thus a prospector. 10 miles from the nearest post-oflice and farther from any medical aid. is 20 years ahead of pharmacy itself
Red Zone Violators Arrested by Police
Four students were given tickets | yesterday for failure to heed noparking warnings on the campus in front of the Student Union and the Pharmacy buildings.
As a final warning to students, who have already been given ap-1 proximately two dozen notices, a small truck was driven up and down University avenue as a reminder to those who had parked there, declared Clee W. Foster, superintendent of the Operation and Maintenance, yesterday.
“Students, yesterday, showed the best cooperation that has been ex-i hiblted thus far in the campaign against parking ln the red zones.” Foster stated. "This cooperation must continue as it is necessary j to keep the street free from traf-! flc congestion," he added.
Failure to continue the observance of the parking rules would necessitate the placing of an officer on the beat to give tags to anyone stopping any length of time, according to the superintend* ent's final statement.
