The Miami ® Hurricane tHE official student publication of THE UNIVERSITY OF MIAMI y0L. 6 Coral Gables, Florida, October 16, 1931 No. 3 GEORGIA INVADES MIAMI TONIGHT First Pan-American Convention For Students Will Meet Here BeUunde, Thompson, Eg gum Delegates of “U’\ Return From Washington The University of Miami will be the first school in the western hemisphere to hold a convention of Pan American students. The dream of three Miami men is now a reality. Rafael Belaunde, Jr., Joe Eggum, and Mel Thompson returned from the Pan American Union conference in Washington last week-end with that assurance. From all indications the congress will be held here at the University sometime in April, 1932, in conjunction with the Pan American celebration of the city of Miami. The city will lend its assistance to the school in putting over the convention. The idea calls for the representation of every nation in the western world by at least three students. The governments of the respective nations will pay their expenses, steamship lines will offer special rates and many other courtesies will be arranged. By affiliation with the National Federation of Students, the plan will be given national scope, and the invitations will bear the signatures of most of the American schools instead of only one. Steps to join the association have already been taken. When the plans for the convention are complete invitations will be sent out to each nation by Dr. Ashe, President of the University, by Miami’s mayor, Mr. Gautier, and perhaps by Governor Carle-ton of Florida. Contact with all the countries has already been established through the department of Pan American relations, of which Mel Thompson is head. He is in correspondence with thirty-one Latin American universities at present. The city, the school and its students are already evincing great interest in the plan. A faculty committee is being organized to give all possible assistance to the promoters. Publicity will probably be in charge of Mrs. Marjorie Stoneman Douglas and Mrs. Ida Clyde Clark. Another committee for promotion is being formed by downtown business men. ' Holdsworth To Address Sou. Economic Congress Dean John T. Holdsworth of the school of business administration left Thursday for Atlanta, where he will address the Southern Economic Congress, meeting in conjunction with the National Tax Association, both of which he is a member. The convention is held today and tomorrow. The Dean’s first speech will be upon the Economic Developments >n Florida during the past year. He will speak at another meeting on Banking Reform, and at a third on the Florida Tax System. He plans to travel by air. There will be a meeting of the University of Miami Alumni next Monday night at the Everglades Hotel. Nearly A Thousand New Library Books Nine hundred and fifty new literature books have been added to the general library during the summer vacation. Through the work of Jane Ward-low and the Library Committee a number of volumes were donated by various people. Among the important volumes donated was a specially-bound set of Harvard Classics. Lamda Phi sorority donated about a hundred books, among which was a miniature set of Shakespeare and the “Lives and Letters of the Presidents”. As a new course is offered this year, “Women in Biography”, several volume* of biography were bought. Many classics have been added to the library shelves, among them a complete set of the Loeb Classics, including Caesar, Vergil, Demosthenes, and Cicero. Altogether the library contains 5367 books for the use of the students of the University, and manuscripts and pamphlets swell the total to 7700.

LAW SCHOOL World Trip With Marines Takes Fred Oppenburn To Far Countries ■ Fred Oppenburn, a student in the U. of M. law school, enlisted in the Marine corps four years ago after running away from Sewanee, where he was enrolled as a freshman. Oppenburn was given training at Parris island, South Carolina, and then transfered to the Quantico, Va. naval base. He embarked there for Nicaragua with the. Eleventh Regiment and saw service there during one of the numerous outbreaks. Then the regiment transfered to San Diego, where Oppenburn joined the replacement battalion of General Smedley Butler, bound for China. He served first in Tientsin during the evacuation of the Kuom-inchin, and was later sent to Peiping to aid in the defense of the American legation. In 1929 he was given his “convenience discharge” to study law at the University of Miami. Mr. Oppenburn had many interesting comments to make on Chinese customs as a result of his long sojourn there. “The Chinese have no curfew bells, but at the order of the dictator the streets are cleared each night by the soldiers. They set up machine guns at street intersections and at about eleven o’clock sweep the streets with a hail of 1 lead, just to make sure that no citizen is staying out too late,” he revealed. “The pig-tail and the custom of binding the feet of women have been abolished by law”, according to Oppenburn. “No man may enter a city unless he has cut off his curlycue.” “Chinese is the easiest language in the world to learn,” he concluded. Men’s Glee Club Under Prof Moor Expect Big Year Daily Rehearsals Scheduled; Twenty Candidates Out; More Expected Under new and professional leadership, the Men’s Glee Club is expected this year to be the best ever produced at the University of Miami. Arthur P. Moor, faculty member in the Conservatory of Music, will have charge of the organization. Rehearsals are being held daily, on Mon., Wed., and Thurs. in Room 254, and Tues. and Fri. in Room 268 from 12:30 to 1:15. Although over twenty men have reported, Mr. Moor has issued a call for additional voices, especially in the upper baritone register to round off the parts. Experience is not necessary, he says. The club also has need of a pianist, and in addition, if any students have novelty or specialty numbers, Mr. Moor will arrange for a tryout. His plans for the organization as its new director will include the introduction of a better type of music this year. Songs such as are used by the Russian Symphonic Choir, and a wide variety of other musical selections, have been ordered from New York and are expected to arrive soon. The Glee Club will also make several trips this winter, and tentative plans may include a selection of the better voices for the presentation of light opera later in the year. Mr. Moor, before coming to the University of Miami, has been doing private teaching and lecture recitals in New! York at the Metropolitan Museum of Fine Arts and the Roerich Museum. He holds several degrees, and has graduate work at Princeton, Columbia, and at Oxford at a Rhodes Lineup For Game Tonight Shifted; Prospects Bright Team Reported and Stronger For Second Tilt of Season A greatly improved Miami team will take the field at Moore Park tonight to turn back the invasion of the Rams of Georgia State College, second scheduled opponent for the Hurricanes. Coach McCann has been working his charges hard throughout the past week in an attempt to correct the faults of last week’s defeat at the hands of Bowdon. The starting lineup will probably see a few changes, with Louie Hansen, fullback, slated for the quarterback post, and Bill L’ltalien, who turned in a sterling performance last Friday night, filling Hansen’s position. Phillips, sophomore half, will not start due to an injured knee. Bates will take his place. Graczyk and Heckman are first choice for the tackles, Dansky and Peterniche at guards, Kozlowski will probably start at center, and the wingmen are as yet undecided, with Middleton and Kaveny tentatively scheduled to answer the | opening whistle. The McCannites will outweigh the Georgians about seven or eight pounds to a man, advance reports show. The Rams have played three games so far this season, swamping Ft. Benning in their opener, 38-0, and losing to the strong Howard team in the second game, 31-0. No scores were available for the outcome of the Georgia State-Ala. Teach, contest. Scholar. The new director of the Glee Club has also held the post of assistant director of the Princeton Choir, and -has been a member of the famous Oxford University Bach Choir and the Columbia Uni-! versity Choir. Law School Student Is Owner of One Of Country’s Best Butterfly Collections J. H. Matteson’s Moths and Flies Worth More Than $100,000 by Pauline Lasky J. Harold Matteson, student in the law school of the University of Miami, and owner of the largest butterfly collection south of Washington, D. C., will be a delegate of the Florida Society of Lepidop-terists at the Fifth International Congress of Entomology in Paris next year. The purpose of the convention will be to discuss new discoveries in the field of entomology and to find ways and means of | naming specimens so that there will be no more of the present confusion in names. Mr. Matteson will attend as a representative of the j University of Miami, and many of ; the exhibits to be presented before the convention will bear the University seal. Advised to take outdoor exercise for his health, Mr. Matteson, at the age of ten, decided upon butterfly collecting as a healthful, outdoor hobby. Since then his collection has grown until it has received international recognition. Mr. Matteson is in direct touch with collectors all over the world, and he continually receives rare specimens from foreign collectors. The fragile butterflies are put into an envelope and placed between two layers of cotton, packed in a box, and are sent in this fashion to join other collections. I viewed the famous collection Wednesday afternoon, and saw hundreds and hundreds of butterflies and moths in all stages, from the egg to the full-growh males and females. The silk cocoon was, perhaps, the most interesting. The eggs, nearly transparent, spherical in shape, and smaller than a common pin head, were deposited on a mulberry leaf, upon which this butterfly feeds. Then I saw the silk cocoon with the larva still inside, just about ready to come forth. There was an empty cocoon that was broken at one end, and the thread of that could not be used since it was broken. The cocoon must be one continuous thread before it can he spun into silk. At one side lay a piece of silk ribbon. There before my eyes was the whole story of silk from beginning to finished product. (Continued on Page Two)
