THORNE AND

FRICTION IN DEPARTMENTS
LEADS TO LOSS OF

Buck and George Fly off the
Handle and Return Depends
Upon Attitude of Students.
Apparently without announcing
their decision, two professors of the
University suddenly severed their
connections with the institution the
letter part of last week. No explana
tions have been officially given out
by the University authorities. It ap
pears that there was some friction in
both the German and Mathematics
aepartments and the action of Prof.
O'Donnell and Prof. Kempthorne was
the direct outgrowth of this. Prof.
O’Donnell said the action was neces
sary for his own peace of mind as
well as the ultimate good of the
University.
As we go to press we are glad to
state that the two scions of knowl
edge will again be at their posts of
duty on Monday, if the students have
returned from their sojourns to the
home nests. After rusticating for a
week on the headwaters of the Wil
lamette, both men feel that they re
sume work without neglecting the
call of the wild.

The selection of the linemen Is

At center again we find a wealth
of material. Ray Williams, Hermes

are all playing a wonderful game.
Williams has an advantage over his
c< mpetltors on account of less weight
to carry on the top of his head. He
Is also a careful trainer and several
years of rest have caused him to be a

This team, thew rlter thinks. Is so
evenly balanced and composed en- *

the captaincy would be hard to place

the athletes meet and choose their

report them to the coach and he will
make changes as he sees fit.
ANON,
Scene m Oliver Moroseo’s tre mendously successful comedy
“PEG O’ MV HEART"
Which will be at the Eugene Theatre on Tuesday, April 21, 1014:
Eresh from Eastern triumps where
If played the large cities to absolutely
the capacity of the theatres, Oliver
Moroseo’s production of “Peg O’ My
Heart,” the comedy of youth, laugh
ter and love will play at the Eugene
Theatre on Tuesday, April 21.
"Peg,” the winsome little Irish
girl, who, In real life la Peggy O’Nell,
la a character that has strongly
gripped the heart of the theatre-go
ing public. Miss O'Neil Is unusually
well supplied with the natural traits
that makes this part a reality; for
her own life draws a close parallel
to the story of the play. Mr. Mor
osco, in selecting this young actress
for suotuan Important role, had in
mind the “type” rather than the ar
tistic reputation of the candidate for
the title role. Miss O'Neil had played
in the “Top O' the Morn'ng,” where
she made a decided Impression. In
the comparison of the parts the ver
satility of this youthful star Is read
ily seen; In that production her part
was of the rough soubrette style,
while the character of "Peg is a
sweet, wholesome and decidely hu
man Irish girl who is as witty as a
character of Thackeray’s en; she is
also philosophical, and full of quaint
pathos, with a touch of melancholy
sobering theb rightness of her laugh.
"Teg O’ My Heart" has proven
conclusively that theatre-goers of all
sections of the country can still laugh
at heartily and sincerely at humor
which is not coarse—that a simple
story directly and sincerely told is
more potent than any fantastic plot
conceivable for this romantic comedy
has been playing to tremendous bus
iness In New York, for over a year,
with Laurette Taylor in the principal
role.
J. Hartley Manners Is the author
of the play, and a superior cast of
Irish and English players, including
Martin Sabine, Maggie Halloway
Floher, Roland Hogue, Jane Mere
dith, Fraser Coulter, A. T. Hendon,
Olin Field and Joseph Yanner Inter
pret the several important roles.
EVELYN NESB1T THAW
IN "MARIETTE”
A Musical, Dancing Divertissement
at Eugene Theatre, Wednesday
April 2.
Evelyn Nesbit Thaw, the most
talked-of woman in the world, will
give an engagement of one night at
the Eugene Theatre on Wednesday,
April 22, in a French musical diver
tissement, “Malriette,” by Maurice
Volny, from a successful engagement
at the Alhambra Theatre, London.
Mrs. Thaw is supported by a big com
pany.
Mrs. Thaw has but recently re
turned to the stage. For six years
after the unfortunate affair with
which her name was connected, she
remained in seclusion perfecting her
self in her chosen profession, the
stage. It was not until this spring,
when she thought that all notoriety
connected with her name had died
down, that she decided to appear.
She selected the London Hippodrome
as the theatre for her first appear
ance. for fear that if she returned to
the stage in New York she would be
accused of making capital out of the
publicity given the actions of her
husband.
It was not until Mrs. Thaw’s ar
tistic success in London was assured
that she accepted an engagement to
appear in America. On her appear
ance in New York she was judged
entirely on her artistic merits and
was enthusiastically praised. In ap
pearing outside of New York Mrs.
Thaw has carefully avoided any pub
licity which bordered upon the sen
sational. 0
°Mrs. Thaw’s dancing partner, Jack
Clifford, will be seen in this pro
duction under hte direction of Emil
Agoust, of the Alhambra Theatre,
London.

Kerry and Llewellyn did the buf

patches Oregon’s Freshman catcher
stood the gaff admirably. But one
error was chalked up against the
Lemon-Yellow, while Washington
spilled the beans five times.
The Varsities play a double header
today. Lyle Bigbee is scheduled to
pitch the morning game, and either
Welch, Bryant or Fleming will start
the vesper session. Motschenbacher
may go behind the bat for one of the
battles today.
The Denny Field diamond is hard
and dry, and the fielders are finding
no necessity of fielding in a sitting
posture.
The Chicago alumnae of Welles

the rebuilding fund.
Thirty-five men have responded to
the call of the Indiana football direc
tor for indoor football practice. The
candidates will be taught the science
of the different plays by diagrams on
a blackboard.
“Nonsense, Gertrude,’’ returned
the mistress of the house, “you mean
kittens-T=-cats don’t have chickens.”
"Was them chickens or kittens
the master brought home last night?”
“Chickens, of course.”
"Well ma’am them's what the
