IT STANDS ON ITS MERITS Not because the management needs the money, not because it is a deserv ing enterprise, but because it is worth its prketo every student, the Ore gana should have 700 subscribers on the campus, instead of the customary 300 or so. The Student Body has very properly voted not to give alms to the Junior class under the guise of paying a chimerical debt. But the members of the Student Body individually are bound to support their year-book by paying what it is actually worth to them. The actual coBt of publishing last year’s Oregana was about one dollar per volume in excess of all the sub scription money received. In other words, the purchasers did not even pay for the white paper, ink and print ing in the book. A comparison of the price charged for the annual here and that charged at any other college will establish the fact that in this, as in other stu dent enterprises, we are feeling but lightly the high cost of living. How much would we have to pay for the Oregana if advertising were excluded, as it is in many college year-books? •• CAMPUS NOTTS * Fred Kiddle was a luncheon guest at the Beta Theta Pi house Wednes day. Bill Burgard and Floyd Payne were dinner guests at the Sigma Nu house Tuesday. Carlyle Geisler spent the week-end in Portland. Clayton Sharp is ill with a seri ous case of blood poisoning. EXTENSION LECTURES The approaching week-end will see four professors busy with extension lectures; three appearing in Salem, and one in Astoria. “The Russian Peril and Russian Possibilities,’’ will be the subject of Dr. Rebec in the Court House at As toria on Friday evening. On the same evening, Prof. O. F. Stafford will talk on “Worlds in the Making,” at the State Training School four miles east of Salem; Professor Stetson on “Educational Opportuni ties for Rural Communities,” at the Salem Heights Hall; and Dr. C. F. Hodge, on “Our Schools for Social Advance," under the auspices of the Parent-Teacher Asociation at Moun tain View School, just out of Salem. COMEDY FROM LATIN TO BE STAGED HERE Plautus’ Menechemi, ..Translated by Dunn to be Presented by ' Students Professor Frederic S. Dunn, head of the Latin Department, is at pres ent engaged in making an English translation of the play, “Menechemi,” by Plautus, a Roman playwright of the second Punic war period. Prof. A. F. Reddie is planning to produce the classic on the campus at some fu ture time, and the author intends to print the play in small book form for the use of other dramatic organiza tions desiring an English version. The theme of “Menechemi” was ta ken by Plautus from an early Greek play. Shakespeare used the theme for his “Comedy of Errors.” The stage of the open air theatre i3 now completed and ready for use. J. Frederick Thorne supervised the con struction. It has over 1,600 square feet of stage surface, being 30 feet wide at one end, 50 feet at the other and 36 feet deep. The accoustics are perfect, according to Mr. Thorne, and are made so by a background of heavy fir trees, into which the stage is set. Dressing rooms will be erected under the stage. The natural auditorium will seat several thousand persons within the sound of a whisper of the stage. The first play for which the theatre will be used is to be the commence ment play, “The Country Shop Keep, er,” by Moliere, to be produced by the class in Dramatic Interpretation. Miss Leslie Blanchard, Miss Mary Gillies, Mrs. Buoy and Beatrice Buoy were dinner guests at the Delta Gam ma house Wednesday. “EXCUSE ME” * _ * * By Rex Kay. * * Mary Backowske, President of * * the Women’s Athletic Association * * at the University of Washington, * * is clamouring for a coach to han- * * die the women’s branches of sport * * on the same basis that is given * * the men’s department. * * __ * * Between “Skeeter” at short and * * Grebe at second, there should be * * some clever stuff pulled og in the * * way of trick plays. That’s what * * the coach banks on. * * _. * * Now that there are to be plenty * * of seats for all honest-to-good- * * ness fans, what excuse will the * * nearly-weds have to hold private * * picnic parties under the campus * : * trees during the games ? * * __ • * Coach Bezdek admits that * * there is a good chance for dark * * clouds to settle heavily over the * ' * baseball team about March 30. * i * __ * I * An Idaho reporter writes: “If * I * the expectations of Coach “Heck” * * Edmundson come true, Idaho will * * havea winning track team this * * year, as all of the old men are * * back, except Loux and Lockhart, * * and there is lots of new material. * * Massey is counted on for a sur- * * prise in the quarter." But they * * hadn’t heard of these new * * “dreams” which “Bill” is having. * * __ * * Pullman will have six letter men * * back for basketball next year. Not * * so bad, but Oregon will lose only * * one and there are several healthy * * looking babes whom it is expect- * * ed “Bez” will pull out of the era- * * die about that time. • ! * -. • * In the shooting matches which * * arc going on in the East the Unh- * * versity of Washington lost to Yale * * in class “C” last week by 992 to * * 865. Pulman still ranks first in * * class “A,” with a score of 998 * * out of a possible lyOOO. * * - ' • * “The Girl Hikers” who are * * walking to Frisco are expected to * * arrive in Eugene tonight. Al- * * though they are not in competi- * * tion with “Rattlesnake Jim,” they * * are bidding fair to usurp the yod- * * ler’s laurels; they have dinner * * dates with several fraternities on • * the campus, but whether they * * dance and yodle is not known. * •••••••• • « GLEE CLUB TRIPS WILL NET NEARLY $300, SAYS TIFFANY The Glee Club trip netted between $250 and $300, according to A. R. Tif fany, Graduate Manager. Two hun dred and twenty-five dollars was made on the local concert and $20 on the Junction City trip. On the Portland and Eastern. Oregon trips it broke eve. This amount is a decided gain over last year’s trip, when a deficit of $900 was made. This money watf lost last | year on the Eastern Oregon trip. The club went into Idaho for two concerts, losing considerable money each time. “The, Student Body debt of $2,600 will be made up by the end of next year, I am sure,” said Mr. Tiffany. [ “We have a splendid start on it this year.” Because of a great increase in the number of students entering the high school at the opening of the second semester, Willamette Univeresity un dergraduates have been given posi tions as assistant instructors in vari ous subjects and will continue the work during the remainder of the schol year.
