WRITING A NEW CHAPTER.
Today marked the turning over of a new leaf in the life of
the University. When Governor Withycombe this afternoon re
viewed the caret Battalion, he did so in the capacity of com
manded-in-chief of the state’s military resources. It was not
three hundred college students that he reviewed, but three hun
dred defenders of the American Flag.
Last fall Governor Withycombe administered the pledge of
service to their state and nation to these same young men. To
day he saf them at work fulfilling that pledge. Those boys in
uniform represented more than four companies of the man
power of the state of Oregon—they represented an element of the
Uniteu States Army that is destined to play an all-important part
in deciding the war on the side of democracy and justice.
These are the young men, resisting a period of patriotic en
thusiasm, have stayed with their work, sometimes in the face of
criticism, that they might find the niche in the new order of
things where they would be of the greatest service to their coun
try. It is unjeust to presume for a minute that they have held
back with any intention of trying to evade their plain duty — if
there be such a man in the ranks of the University Battalion,
then he does not deserve the name of an Oregon student.
The University appeared before the people of Oregon to
day, through their highest official, in a new role, offering a
new service and making the supreme sacrifice. It is a day which
will go down into the history of our Alma Mater as one of her
proudest.
Classes in Investment Will Be
Given in Portland.
School of Commerce to Satisfy
Demand for Financial
Instruction.
\ course in investment bunking will
be started in Portland by the school of
commerce, under the auspices of the
extension division early in February, for
officers and employes of the conuuer.
cial and investment banks of that city
and for the investing public generally.
Frank A. Freeman, vice-president of the
Lumbermens Trust company, who has
bid wide experience as n bond dealer,
will conduct the course for the I'niver
sity.
The recent sales of Liberty bonds and
the approaching sale of [be third Liberty
bond issue, has created a widespread
interest in investment banking, and be
plans of the school of commerce to or
ganize a class *in Portland are in re
sponse to a popular demand in that city.
Loading bunkers in the state and the
members of the school of commerce
faculty, are of the opinion that after
the war the investing public in Oregon
will turn to stocks and bonds instead
of to real estate luorlgugi s, which latter
field has been the accustomed channel
for investments in this state for many
years.

WORK IHILD ILL
John Stark Evans, Marian Ady,
and Frances Schenk Aid in
Original Music Set
tings, Costumes.
Great Mystery Surrounds In
terpretative Dance Before
the Third Act.
Behind the. scenes over in Guild hall
the scene makers are busy, even while
Professor Reddic is conducting a class
in the front of the house. Yesterday
afternoon Marian Ady, perched on a
Btepladder, was painting a window in the
wall which will be the background for
the opening scene of Maeterlinck’s
“Ardiane and Barbe Bleue,” which is
to be produced by the classes in dra
matic interpretation the coming week
end.
Much of the scenery is already fin
ished, and the costumes are practically
completed. Frances Schenk, official cos
tumer for the campus theatre, has
achieved some extremely good color ef
fects in the costumes for this play.
Bfuebeard himself will be particularly
magnificent.
Co-ed to Be Dancer.
The interpretative dance which was
to have been given in the first act has
been put at the beginning of the third.
Great secrecy surrounds this dance. On
the entire campus only three people
know who the dancer is, and they will
not tell. They admit she is a co-ed, but
aside from that they will divulge noth
ing.
The music, under the direction of
John Stark Evans, is going to be a
feature of this play. Part of it is orig
inal and composed especially for this
production. Mr. Evans is going to play.
