"n;,i oqj 05 Suiraoo si s3oq-2uoq; Xppnci
gene Theatre on April 25, when Henry
Miller’s great New York Gaiety Theatre
success will be again interpreted by the
notable cast seen in it last season. The
play was dramatized by Jean Webster
from her book of the same name. It
is brimful of humor and sentiment and
its quaint name always attracts con
jecture. Here is the story of how the
play got its title. Little Judy is a
drudge in a bleak New England found
ling home. She has humor and is filled
with dreams and when she rebels against
the hard life in the asylum, a new visit
ing trustee likes her spirit and arranges
to send her to a great college, with
pretty frocks and clothes and every
thing she has seen in her dreams. She
is not to know who gives her all these
wonderful things and is only shown the
shadow of her benefactor as he climbs
into his waiting motor car. “I know,”
says pretty Judy, “I’ll call him my
daddy long- legs”, for the grotesque
shadow is little else but long-slim 'egs.
Under Henry Miller’s direction Daddy
Long-Legs will come to this city again
from San Francisco and will be present,
ed by a notable acting company. After
the original hit of the comedy in New
York and Chicago it has remained for
London to accept it with acclaim and it
is now packing the Duke of York’s thea
| tre in the British metropolis.

University Alumni to A/iake Its
Observance Annual.
Will Organize Work in Junior
Week-End to Increase
Enrollment.
An annual state-wide University day •
will hereafter be a feature of Junior !
week-end. On this day, which this year j
will be on Friday, May 11. the alumni j
and former students and friends of the
University will spend special effort in ;
working toward the upbuilding of the ;
University. It is designed as a Uni- i
versity celebration day.
There is an especially urgent need for 1
new students for next semester for
scores, perhaps hundreds of University j
people, may be called to defend their
country and their places must be filled \
if possible. An especial appeal will be ;
made to the girls of the state, in view !
of the home economics courses which will
be offered here for the first time in Sep
tember.
The task of obtaining students from the
high schools is recognized to be a par
ticular difficult one at this time, since
so many high school boys have enlisted.
The alumni and friends of the University
will visit the high schools throughout
the state, urging the students to go to
college, particularly the University of
Oregon.
On University day it is planned that
alumni of the University who have not
formed organizations do so at that time
and then as organizations, be prepared
to concentrate their efforts in promoting
the welfare of the University.
Governor James Withyeombe, inter
ested in bringing the name of the Uni
versity before the people of the state,
is co-operating with the alumni com
mittce to the extent of appointing
and county chairmen throughout the statt
to aid in the celebration of University day
The alumni committee comprises Kar
Onthank, chairman, Earl Kilpatrick, am
Ben Williams.
