GEARY DID NOT ASK FOR EUGENE THEATRE Arthur Geary, manager of the Glee Cluh, is in Portland, arranging for the annual concert and also to get out Bill Main's class program for the Idaho game. Before leaving he stated em phatiealK that he did not attempt to secure the Eugene Theatre for the local concert. “I had heard of tile high price Smith always demanded for his house,” said Geary. "Knowing the heavy financial burden the Glee Cluh would have to bear, I decided that it would be best to use Villard Hall this year. I was quietly making arrangements with this in view when Manager Smith called me up. He told me then that if 1 did not use bis house in Eugene, he would see that all my contracts in Portland and Southern Oregon were cancelled, for his theatre, but he refused to com promise in any way." The student body is backing Manager Geary loyally in his fight. They con sider that Smith is unfair and an open boycott is advocated. Many have statcil that they will never attend his shows again until he shows a disposi tion to support the University better. It was the intention of the executive ' committee to give a box party to the visiting Multnomah football team to night. 1 learing of Smith's actions, however, they decided to call it off and substitute a dance instead. Scores of students, who had already arranged | to go to the show, at once cancelled the I dates and sanl they would attend the ; dance instead. -1 a _ Miss Geneva W ilcox of St. Helen's Hall is visiting her sister, Cecile W ilcox, at the Kappa Alpha Theta house.
