    PfiGEIIIIl MAY DEPICT
“REOS” AND PIONEERS
Committee Working on Plans,
Dr. Bates on Scenario; All
Oregon Colleges Invited.
A photo play Indian attack is a
hair-raising affair, but what of a
real one on Kincaid field, some bight
next .June, with shrieks and paint and
tomahawks? On the screen a voy
ageur with buckskin fringes and
nasty bowie-knife is romance incar
nate, but what if a live one should
come floating down the mill race or
the Willamette, singing a real French
chanson?
And yet such a thing may happen
if the committee, which is working
up the Oregon pageant, can secure
financial backing from the board of
regents, and the co-operation of the
University students.
The Oregon pageant which, by the
way, is a state, not strictly local, af
fair—although to be situated on or
near the campus—will be on the or
der of a drama. Its scenes will be
connected with incidents of Oregon
history.
Lewis ami Clark in full dress are
sure to come down the river or the
race in their bateaux—perhaps with
Sacajewea and Oharboneau. Pos
sibly they will hand out quinine and
eye-water to the bedizened natives,
who will be standing on the banks.
There will be coimclls with the chiefs
and peace pipes. The party will land
and discourse in spirited dialogue, or
real poetry or song.
Presently tno missionaries wm
begin to arrive. They may build a
church right, on the spot ami “lino"
the hymns and preach in Hudson Hay
jargon.
And then the treachery of the
savages! The missionaries are foul
ly murdered!
W|ar dances and religious dances
will bo enacted.
Then the first emigrants. You
will see them with their ox teams,
crossing the waste prairies of Kin
caid. The drawing of the wagons
into the circle at night, the camp
fire, tile fiddling and dancing and
songs, some quoit pitching and foot
racing. 'Perhaps (by quick process)
a few bones will whiten in the trail
of the wagons. All the formalities of
electing a captain and of trying cases
of “discipline” en route will lie ob
served.
At length the train will reach Eu
gene. Public meetings of pioneers
Indian outbreaks—a Thanksgiving
scene at the church. Perhaps real
eats.
And as the scene draws down to
the present times, the signifcance of
Oregon history and the rise of the
west will lie brought out. The end
will be the symbolic glorifying of
education.
All schools of college rank In Ore
gon, the state normal and Ohemawa
Indian school, will be asked to take
part. The pageant will be held com
mencement week, if ttie date ol the
commencement Is made earlier a
matter to In' considered at the next
faculty meeting.
“TUo pageant will not no a Kin
ross without the help of the Univer
sity students In the noting and In the
writing of the play,” said Ur. Joseph
Sohnfer of the pageant committee.
”1 have never aeon students any
where more willing to co-operate,"
said Dr. 10. S. Dates. "We want their
assistance. Dut we I'eel we must have
something definite to put before
them."
With the aim of getting something
"'definite,” the committee reuuesed
Dr. Dates to prepare a scenario of he
drama. The plan he submitted at
the last meeting was, according to
Dr. Schafer, "most excellent and
artistic.”

line.
Let's let the northwest go, and
travel eastward. The Cleveland!
Leader has this to say: "Now, the
Oregon Aggies, that knuckle under
to Washington state, said to bo even
better than Washington this year,
come east and trim the Michigan Ag- j
gies 20 to 0, anJ the Aggies trimmed
Michigan 24 to 0. Now Syracuse
beat Michigan only l » to T. and
i'rinceton was able to beat Syracuse
only 3 to 0, and Princeton is rated
'even with Cornell
eastern champion.
as the possible
Just dope it out,
fans; just dope it out.”
A Seattle paper announces that
Washington is soon going to com
plete its eighth year without a defeat,
iCertainly, we all knew that when
'iJobie began to jump his contracts,
life knew that W. S. C. was going to
have something when he discovered
i who their coach was, and he
[feared botli O. A. C. and Oregon, be
cause they have been gradually com
ing closer and closer to the kind that
would deal him a handful of small
cards and keep the royal flush for
themselves. That’s why he jumped
and signed up with teams he knew
there was absolutely no reason to
fear.
But he will get it some time, un
less his contract expires too soon.
And the big thing that troubles
Oregon now—the nightmare of all
good football fans is: What is going
to happen November 20? Well, we
rsliall all be there to see, and to root.
HIPPODROME WILL BE
SCENE OF JOLLITY NOV. 26
College Night” Promises to Be
Big Social Event of Year.
Women’s Building Cause.
Plans have been completed and
■verything is in readiness for “col
lege night” at the Portland ice hip
podrome, November 26, according to
a letter received from Mrs. Alice
Benson Beach, ’05, chairman of the
committ c.
This project was recently launched
by the Alumnae association of Port
land, In order to make up its $500
donation to the general fund for the
woman’s memorial building.
”|We have arranged with the hock
ey association to have a game on that
night,” said Mrs. Beach. “There will
be a grand march and many stunts.
Por one of the stunts, we are plan
ning on having the Oregon students,
present, sing their alma mater
songs.”
If the idea of those in charge
works out. Oregon will occupy one
side of the immense building, O. A.
C. the other. With the rivals facing
each other, contests of rooting, sing
ing, etc., will take place. It is in
tended that both glee clubs shall be
present.
On the Oregon aide of the ice hip
podrome, there are 7 0 boxes, seating
six persons each, which are being
spoken for by the local fraternities.
These boxes sell for $5 apiece. Tort
land alumnae chapters and local fra
ternities have already reserved 40.
Much organizations is planning ap
propriate decorations.
Mrs. iteach, of the Portland grad
uates, who is in charge of the affair,
is being assisted by Miss Ruth Dun
iway, Ml. Miss Duniway visited the
campus about a week ago and
through the president of the student
body, Lamar Tooze, called a meet
ing of representatives of the differ
ent houses. The plan was well re
ceived, and since then several of the
houses have reserved places.
Mr. Tooze favors the plan. ‘‘It
| will bring Oregon and O. A. C. to
gether,‘‘ he says. “It will prompt
ioo-operatlon, and will ten dto make
I the woman’s building a state propo
sition." He lias general admission
tickets for sale at 50 cents each. The
Portland committee will visit all of
live schools in that city, both public
and private, and will give the stu
dents a chance to buy tickets for the
affair.
FIRST STUNT TRYOUTS
HELD THURSDAY NIGHT
A black lace dialogue, a costume
solo, two readings, a musical and in- j
strumoutal conversation composed
the stunt tryouts for the Men's Glee
duh Thursday night.
"The public may expect something
entirely new and original this year
In the stunt line,” said Professor R
H, l.ytnan today. "The material is
exceptionally good. Of course this
was only the first tryout to find what
stunts were possible and to dlscovei
talent, but he boys showed up well.
|The public will see their old friend
Hatley as usual this vear. but 1 can
!
not say ns to the rest. They will be
picked later.”
