COSMOPOLITAN MBS 'JIM LOMEETS Large crowds have been seen in Eu gene, happy crowds have been heard in Eugene, but seldom if ever has such a large, happy, talkative mob, such as is at present quartered in the city, paraded its streets. Residents from here, there, and every where are in the city—it is truly a cosmo politan gathering. Noteworthy is the fact that everybody is evidently happy. Residents of Creswell, Cottage Grove, Wendling. Marcola, Donna, towns on the McKenzie and various other communities are registered at the hotels and visiting friends . It is thought that the shows and dances will be jammed to the doors tonight, des pite the fact that many of the visitors will return home this evening. All during the day hundreds of auto mobiles have paraded the streets, many of which are at the service of 65th boys. Obviously Eugene is not the only town this side of Portland which feels grateful for the return of the 65th boys of this community. Citizens of towns, villages and hamlets which dot the Southern Pacific line dur ing the stretch of 126 miles from Port land to Eugene turned out to greet the artillerymen. Hands were shaken, cheers were given, babies were lifted to win dows. and the 150 wearers of gold chev rons were made to feel the welcome which the whole state wishes to accord them. Hundreds of persons were present to greet the boys during their short stay in Salem, and cigars, cigarettes, and things to eat were passed through the windows at many stations along the way. Karl Kellogg is back smiling as ever. His companions say that he is writing to no less thnn five French lassies now. Sergeant Rodney Smith was not in very much evidence on the train as he had a “bad night of it’’ in Portland last night, according to his khaki clad brother*. Al though he did not make the fact known, he is returning as a sergeant. He re ceived his promotion from the rank of private one night at Fleville just before the battalion moved up to Fort de Ar- j ton.oe to take part is battla. on MUSICAL TALENT IS PRAISED 1 _ t Mrs. William E. Wright, Grand Head of Mu Phi, Commends Landsbury’s Work. Mrs. William E. Wright, gramd presi dent of Mu Phi Epsilon, the largest na tional honorary musical fraternity, ar rived on the campus Wednesday evening to visit the Oregon chapter. She is be ing extensively entertained in faculty and musical circles and is a house guest at Hendricks Hall. “Dr- Landabury's work is wonderful," said Mrs. Wright yesterday morning. She expressed her pleasure at finding so much musical talent at the University, | and declared that it would not be long until western institutions ns a whole would compare most favorably with east ern musical colleges and universities. Mrs. Wright’s home at present is in Youngstown, Ohio, This is her second trip to the Pacific coast. Before coin ing to Eugene she installed a Mu Phi chapter at Washington State College and visited the University of Washington chapter. The Oregon chapter was installed on March 3, 1911- The organization has 24 active chapters and about 2,300 mem bers, according to Mrs. Wright, Many of the more prominent people in the mu sical world. Madame Sohumann-Heinck. Cecil Chaumanaude, Carrie Jacobs Bond, Ethel Legirski, Jessie L. Gaynor, and Guiomar Novaes, the famous Brazilian pianist, were some of the well known ar tists mentioned by the visitor. Mrs. Wright has been president of the organization for two years. ‘'It was founded al the Metropolitan Shcool of Music in Cincinnati in November, 1903, for tho purpose,” said Mrs- Wright, “of developing a higher and broader under standing of the art of music. Its aim is to interest and promote appreciation in advancing the pursuit of the highest and best in music.” (The visitor expected to leave last night for Sam Francisco. From there she will go to the middle west to install a chapter in the University of Nebras ka and the Horner Institute in Kansas City. MOOT COURT NO PASTIME Students of Law Shoool Learn Actual Interpreting of Statutes. The hope that the moot court trials are to be a source of anraseinemit has been given up, according to the students of the University law school. They have found that actual practice in interpret ing and in practicing law is what Dean Hope wants, not pleasure and a pas time. The case to he tried Tuesday, March 4, is entitled Fletcher versus The Spring Valley Water company. M- K. Holland will be tile attorney for the plaintiff, Kenneth Armstrong for the defendant, and W. R. Decker will act os clerk of the court. The ease will be tried be fore Chief Justice MoCroskey. It seems that the Spring Valley Water company built the Galeveros dam, but due to the existence on an old mining shaft which the company was unable to discover by the exercise of due care, yie dam broke. Fletcher's house was carried away in the flood and he is suing for damages. The case depends entirely on the points of law involved. The next moot court session, March 11, sounds as though it might be more entertaining. The case is a neighborhood suit over a kennel of prize puppies and a Belgian hare. WOMAN SOLON MAY COME Mrs. Alexander Thompson of Hood River Wanted for Assembly. An attempt is being made to bring Mrs- Alexander Thompson, of Hood River, representatives in the state leg islature, to the campus for the assem bly next Wednesday, according to Karl Onthank, secretary to President Camp bell.

Mines Exploding in Evacuated Village Kills Americans, Writes Joe Tominga. ■Toe Tominnga, graduate of the School iif Architecture in 1918, now with the 09th Pioneer Infantry, Company L, sta tioned at Man.glen.nes, Frnnce, gets time to do some sketching in the neighboring towns, he writes in a letter just re ceived on the campus. “About a wecek ago, I quit ‘squads right’ and came to this village to do salvage work,” he writes. “I don’t sup pose you will find this place on an ordi nary French map, but if you look on a large scale map, you will find it is about 15 miles south of the Belgian border, about 12 miles southwest of the border line of Duehe of Luxemburg and 25 miles north of Verdun- We are in an advanced territory which the Germans had long occupied until the armistice was signed. This village is French in architecture, but hi! signs ami posters j are written in1 German. “Germans, before they were forced I to evacuate this territory, set mines ail | over this territory. Only a few days i ago untimely explosion of a mine cost a fw of our boys, whom sadly we buried this morning. We have now a German captain) (prisoner) who was supposed to know the location of the mines. lie told our captain that, this village would go to pieces, if we connect electric light wires. Throughout villages in the war zone, one thing which strikes me funny is the fact that we don’t see any young women We see aged women and very young kid dies, hut no women of between ages 1 fJ and 80. They say that Germans took them to ‘way back in Germany to do hard work.’ “Germans may he civilized, but they surely did winked things in this war. In one village I found a few rounds of lead-headed dum-dum bullets, and in ! another village I also found saw-tooth i bayonets. They are surely wicked look- | ing weapons. Put funny it may seem, j that German prisoners like American boys better than French or British. In the city of Luxemburg when American troops occupied, the citizens showed ap preciation and gave a warm welcome They seem to like us better than French. “Once we did expect to see the stntue of Liberty again before the icebergs melt away in the Hudson river, but now there is no such hope.” ♦♦♦♦/♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦*♦ ♦ ANNOUNCEMENT ♦ ♦ Arthur Faguy-Cote wishes to an- Q ♦ nounce that tryouts for the men’s ♦ ■ ♦ ehorus in the opera “Chimes of ♦ ♦ .Yormnndy” will he held at 5:80 in ♦ ♦ his studio in the music building ♦ ♦ Monday evening.
