/ V payment of Outstanding Bills i Compels Retrenchment by Student Body. The policy of economy in student body finances must continue this term, decid ed the executive committee at its meet ing; yesterday afternoon. ; "We must retrench now,” said Dean Walker. "The students thought that it would not be necessary this term, since the war is over, but the payment of all outstanding bills encroached on the spring Vudget and we must continue to economize ” "Every activity must be cut down somewJf.t. but none will be curtailed.” •he explained. The organzations have been following the policy of fewer trips, which mi st be continued. According to the present state of stu dent body finances, it will be impossible also to grant trophies, such as sweaters, letters and pins, to participants in the various student body activities. "The sacrifice of these trophies is ’or the genera] good,” said Dean Walk D is not the idea of the execu tive committee to rob the students of •hrsn things and we do not want anyone Vi fee1 that.” The boys will get their letters next year when the student tinances will undoubtedly permit it. MIME PKSISSMIIIS Martha Tinker, Melba Williams, Ada McMurphy Score in Song Recital. That Oregon-, numbers among its stu dents three talented women was demon strated last evening when Martha Tink er, mezzo-soprano, Melba Williams, dramatic soprano and Adah McMurphy ■Lyric soprano, pupils of Arthur Faguy Cote, head of the vocal department in the University School of Music, appear ed in recital in the Auditorium of the Y. M. C. A. hut, ✓ Miss Tinker s first number was an aria in French, “Adieu Forets” from Tsehaikowsky. This was perhaps her strongest selection. The wide range and difficult passages were executed re markably well. She also sang “The Maids of Cadiz,” by Delibes; “The Nile” and ,‘Spring .Reverie,” both by Xavier Re • oux. All three songs were well received by the audience. Of Miss Williams’ songs perhaps the peculiar swing of the soft, slow “Hindu Slumber Song” by Harriet Ware was test suited to her voice. The arai “Love and Music” from "Tosca” by Puccini gave her an opportunity to use her wide range of tones. Her other numbers were “Come Out, Mr. Sunshine” by Paul Bliss and “Your Iviss” by Fay Fos ter, both of them pleasing. Miss McMurphy’s little French song, “L Ete” by Chaminade was her best se lection and though the range was wide, Miss McMurphy sang with excellent tone. The aria “One Fine Day,” from “Madam Butterfly” by Puccini was also well executed. Her other songs were “Like a Rosebud” by Frank LaForge and “Before My Window” by Rachmaninoff. The recital is the first of several to be given by students of Mr. Cote during the year. When the next concert will ; be given has not been announced. H. H.
