GOVERNOR TO APPOINT
REGENTS AFTER APRIL 1.
'Important Meeting of Board to be
Held in February,” Says
President Campbell
“Governor Withycombe will not
. make appointments for the vacancies
caused by the two members of the
Board of Regents whose terms expire
April 1st, until after the offices are
vacated,” said President Campbell.
“At the next meeting, in the latter
part of February, important matters
are to be considered. The items of the
annual budget will be gone qyer care
fully and considered one by one. Be
sides the annual budget, plans for the
enlargement and extension of the
Commerce and Architectural Depart
ments, the latest additions to the Uni
versity , will probably be the most
important matters under considera
tion. Such questions as are pressing
the University at the present time will
be carefully considered and proper ac
tion taken.”
Margaret Sauffer and Albert Davis,
of Portland, were married in that city
Tuesday. Miss Stauffer was a Spoh
omore at the University, and a mem
ber of Kappa Kappa Gamma.
DATES OF GAMES NOT SET
Inter-Class Basketball Series to be
Played After Examinations
Are Over
The inter-class basketball games
will be played immediately after the
examinations are over, although a
definite schedule has not yet been
made. The exact dates will be deter
mined upon soon at a meeting of the
managers of the various teams.
The Freshmen, about four teams
strong, are practicing every after
i noon, but after the stress of the ex
! aminutions is over their practice will
be held in the evening, under the su
1 pervision of Cnach Bezdek.
The other classes have not begun
regular practice yet, but several
members of the Senior squad are get
ting good workouts on the Atlas Club
team in the City Basketball League. •
The Juniors have elected Ray Gor
man captain, and, according to Man
ager Lyle Bigbee, will soon have a
strong squad out.
The Sophomores, last year’s cham
pions, have not yet commenced prac
tice, and have but two men of their
last year’s team in college and eli
gible. Emmett Rathbun, manager,
however, refuses to say anything

Once again the merry-making “Mutt
and Jeff’’ will be with us. The season
of laughter is about to begin. “Mutt
and Jeff in Mexico,” in a brand new
dress, is coming with a bigger and bet
ter show than has ever appeared be
fore under the well known title. Giv
ing “Mutt and Jeff” a new and supe
rior production each successive year
is an act of diplomacy on the part of
Gus Hill. Bud Fisher’s eccentric char
acters can live for a century or they
can die as dead as a “door nail” in
sixty days, if allowed to do so, but it
is decidedly to the interest of both
Bud Fisher and Gus Hill to see them
live for years innumerable, which they
will do ns long as Fisher is able to fur
nish “new dope” and up-to-the-minute
corned situations as longoas Gus\, Hill
o furnishes a now and acceptably Ve°-,
hide for their stage &ork. Both of
these gentlemen seem to be success^
fully keeping up their pace at the
present writing. “Mutt and Jeff in
Mexico” will represent the “last word
sssar
. ..!'!. J"
in musical comedy production,” ev
erything new but the name. The Amer
ican public never wanted to laugh
more than they do at this time. They
seek comedy even in motion pictures.
Gus Hill’s mission since his entre into
the theatrical producting game, has
been to make people laugh. He is the
acknowledged dean of cartoon comedy
production, never having offered a play
of this sort thnt did not prove a suc
cuss. It is, therefore, distinctly evi
dent that the enormous success of
“Mutt and Jeff in Mexico” is due to
proper handling, by catering to the
wishes and desires of the theatre-going
public. This season’s show consists of
a sixty-foot carload of scenery, prop
erties and costumes. A cast of fifty
capable^artists and the„ inevitable cho
rus of pretty girls, without which the
“Phun Phest” would be incomplete.
Don’t miss “Mutt and Jeff'm Mexico."

SHORT STORY GLASS
TO WRITE SCENARIOS
Arrangements Made With Hugh Hyme
to Publish Stories in the
Spectator
Professor W. F. G. Thacher, of the
University English Department, will
introduce motion picture scenario
writing in his Short Story class dur
ing the second semester. The scenario
writing will not be compulsory, but
will be entirely optional with the stu
dent.
The writing will be accepted as
a part of the work in the Short Sto
ry class.
Professor Thacher has made no
definite plan as yet, but©the students
will be given a chance along that liue
of work, providing they furnish their
own ideas. ,
It was upon request of the present
Short Story class that Professor
Thacher decided to give a class in this
work the second Semester.
Professor Thacher has also made
arrangements with Hugh Hume, editor
of the Portland Spectator, to have
some of the work of the class pub
lished each week in the Spectator.
Professor Thacher believes that the
class is strong enough to do this kind
of work, and that the printing of its
stories will cause a greater interest
and effort.
The Short Story class will be open
to any student who desires to take
it and do the work. A class in vers
ification, under Professor Thacher,
will also start second semester.
