College Vote To Hold Another Reunion Within Two Years BY On Page London, May 6 d li- - Britons led an empire that embraces the world's area and population today in a joyous celebration of the 25th anniversary of King George's accession to the 21 Pictures h throne. RUSSELL HESS Reminiscent and eager to renew old friendships and associations of school days, 163 former students, alumni, faculty members and friends of the Brigham Young college, which was closed in 1926, assembled for a banquet and reunion at the Bluebird Saturday evening. From all points of the compass these B. Y. C. adherents came. So high was the interest in the gathering that 23 members of the class of 1905, meeting as a group for the first time in thirty years, under the presidency of Dr. L. L. Daines of Salt Lake City, came to participate in the reunion Saturday night, and held a special class reunion at the old college campus during the afternoon. Interest in the reunion this year ran so high that many who desired to make reservations were turned away for lack of accomodations. Mrs. A. N. Sorenson, of Logan, was chairman of the gathering with John H. Kemp of North Logan as master of ceremonies, and Miss Barbara Maughan, formerly of the college faculty, and now a member of the Brigham Young university teaching staff at Provo, as toastmistress. President Joseph E. Cardon of Cache stake offered the invocation. On motion of Dr. Ephriam Edward Erickson, professor of philUtah, osophy at the University of C. in and an alumnus of B. Y. 1905 and of the high school class the of 1908, the college class group voted to perpetuate the reunion idea and to further this for project elected a committee This another reunion in 1937. committee comprises City Judge Jesse P. Rich, of Logan as chairman, Mrs. Mary Young Holman, J. Brigham City, Alma Sonne. E.and Passey, Miss Mae McCarrey Russell L. Hess.

Linford of the Utah State Agricultural college faculty who was president of the Brigham Young college from 1901 to 1913; Saul E. Hyer, Lewiston; and Louis W. Larsen, Sale Lake City. Musical numbers were contributed during the evening by Miss Eulalia Lee of Hyde Park and Merle Cunningham of Lewiston. Special speakers of the evening included William Z. Terry, who with Dr. E. G. Gowans, now deceased, was the first recipient of a degree conferred by the Brigham Young college; Dr. L. L. Daines , Elmer Barrett and C. W. Dunn of the Logan stake presidency. John H. Kemp read a letter from A. E. Bowen, Salt Lake City, former faculty member of the college and now a prominent Utah attorney, and general superintendent of the Y. M. M. I. A In his letter Mr. Bowen expressed engageregrets that a business ment prevented his participation of one those in the reunion as chosen to respond to a toast. The committee on arrangements for the reunion this year comprising John H. Kemp, Mrs. Sorensen, Joseph R. Jenson and Russeil Hess, was given a special vote of thanks for the successful way in which the reunion was carried out.

Meanwhile American machinery I companies are helping to cut the vrotton industry's throat. Their sale of cotton ginning and harvesting to Brazil and other machinery has jumed foreign competitors five times over the figure.

Of 11 passengers carried by the plane, including an infant, only two escaped severe injury, and the condition of Paul Wing, movie executive and father of Toby and Patricia Wing, screen stars, was regarded as critical. His chest was crushed. The casualty list included : DEAD: Senator Bronson Cutting, R., of New Mexico. Pilot Harvey Bolton, Kansas City. Kenneth Grieson, Kansas City. Miss Jane Millias, Kansas City.

Senator Cutting was returning to Washington from the Co-pil- ot COMBINES GLEE Friend WASHINGTON, May 6 The death of Sen. Bronson Cutting, R., N. M., in an airplane crash today opened a gap in the front rank of American political Liberals. Cutting was an effective member of the powerful senate progressive group which has been forcing successive administrations toward policies denounced by conservative statesmen as radical. Cutting went to southwestern journalism and ultimately politics from a background of wealth in the east. He inherited a fortune and like President Roosevelt, was educated at Groton school and Harvard. When a hundful of progressive Republican senators bolted President Hoover in 1932, Cutting was among them. With Sen. George W. Norris. R., Neb., and Sen. Robert M. LaFollette, P., Wis., Cutting campaigned for Roosevelt and the New Deal. LaFollette was in Cutting's office today when the news came that the senator was dead. He stumbled into a chair and almost fell to the floor in the first moment of agitation. Senator friendship Cutting's with President Roosevelt cooled a few months after the inauguration and finally came to an end. Cutting was hurrying back to Washington today to speak and vote for the Patman currency-issu- e bonus bill which Mr. Roosevelt has promised to veto. They disagreed first over the 1933 economy act which slashed the compensation of ill veterans and Cutting's privately stated opinion that Mr. Roosevelt "broke faith with me generally is believed to have caused the New Deal to oppose the New Mexican liberal at the election last November. Dennis Chavez, former Democratic member of the house, opposed Cutting with support from James A. Farley, chairman ot the Democratic national committee. A contest of that election was pending when Cutting died. New Mexicos governor is a Democrat and presumably will appoint Chavez to the senate vacancy. One of Cutting's last senate fights was for a specific allocation of works relief funds to continue schools which are being forced to close this week because of lack of funds. A compromise provision was written into the bill. The senator never married.
