    PUTTER, KRONER AND
SIMPSON IN EUGENE
University Men in 162nd In
fantry Band Play Before
Foch, Baker, Pershing
Three University men, Leo Potter and
Charles Croner of Eugene and Harold
, Simpson of North Bend, members of Al
pha Tau Omega fraternity, who returned
to Eugene Tuesday night from overseas
service with the 162nd infantry band into
which members of the 3rd Oregon infan
try band was merged before going to
France, were in the first American band
to arrive in Bordeaux in the spring of
101S. They played at the presentation of
medals by Marshal Foch to the French
wounded and acted as escort to Secretary
Newton D. Baker on his first trip to
Bordeaux. They also played before Gen
eral Pershing several times.
Potter received his degree from the
Fniversity when he enlisted in March,
1S>17. Croner and Simpson enlisted at the
same time. Both expect to re-euter col
lege next fall. All three men were mem
bers of the University band.
Gassed on Trip Overseas.
The trip overseas in December, 1017,
was far from eventful according to Pot
ter. They were gassed on boar-d the
transport. “Two German spies who were
responsible, paid the penalty and were
probably shot at sunrise,” said Potter,
who has not yet entirely recovered from
the effects of the gas and may have to
leave Oregon to seek n drier climate.
Just outside of St, Nazaire they were
fired upon by a submarine which was
overtaken and sunk by. a sub-chnser.
‘‘That was a thrilling experience,” said
Croner, “when- we jumped into the
water.”
In April they went to central France
with the first depot division of the first
army corps and in Contres, a small town
about 50 miles south of Paris the first
American training camp for officers and
enlisted men was established said Pot
ter.
Visiting French Towns.
Their organization saw much of France
visiting principal towns and cities and
various training camps. Besides furnish
ing music they put on a little show at
some of the camps.
They were in Paris for a week in De
cember and saw President Wilson and
many of the world’s notables attending
the peace conference. “You can see most
anything in Paris,” said Croner, but
they agree that it is great* to he back
home again and sec old friends around
the campus.

Rev. W- Peterson at Hut Talks
on Dramatist’s “Emperor
and Galilean.”
An analogy was drawn between Julian,
the insane emperor in Ibsen's “Emperor
and Galilean” and Wilhelm Hohenzol
lern, ex-kaiser of Germany b.v Reverend
Wilhelm Petterson, pastor of a Norwe
gian oknroh in Portland in his lecture b«
fore members of the Eutaxian students of
the University and townspeople of Eu
gene at eight o’clock in the Y. M. C. A.
hut.
“Ibsen attempted in this drama, which
he considered his masterpiece,” said Mr.
Petterson, “to show the two great forces
which have quarreled through history,
the world and the church; the power of
the emperor and the power of God.” Ju
lian, Ibsen’s leading character in this
10-act historical drama, conceived himself
to be a superman whose will was su
preme, which idea, said Mr. Petterson,
is an insane ony and Julian was intensely,
vainly insane when he believed this.
Ibsen Anti-German.
Ibsen when he wrote this drama, con
tended the speaker, was auti German. He
aimed to point out the error of the times
and knew the idea, of the superman to
be an insane one. In another one of 1b
s'.n’s works, “The Murder of J.incoln,”
he refers to Germany as “the thousand
from the land of lies.” As few Europeans
did, he understood the American view
point at that time and had a keen insight
into American ideas.
The idea voiced by Ibsen through Jul
ian contained the philosophy of Nietszehe
perfected.
A brief survey of the play was given
by Reverend Mr. Petterson preliminary
to the analogy drawn, outlining the char
acter of Julian somewhat in detail.
America’s Spirit Needed.
“In order to understand the meaning
of the struggle through which we have
just passed, caused by this insane idea
of one man it is necessary to inject the
spirit of America through the world,"
said Reverend Petterson, “for this spirit
has the power to destroy it.
“It is the greatest personal satisfac
tion to me,” concluded the speaker, “that
the hope of the world lies in spending
all that we mean by the spirit of Amer
ica, until all men are free and justice
reigns; until we have a brotherhood of
nations to march shoulder to shoulder,
hand in hand in democratizing the
world.”

their labors, but also the grateful thanks
of the University. This has been a splen

campus through the emphasis of an in
