and 1905 was one of the best half

him is the culling out of the men and

pected to bring out thfe best that is

Arthur Tuck, the ltedmond Jack

backtield position on the Redmond

School of Seattle before coming to
Portland to spend his last two years

A. T. O/s Meet Bear
Dr. John Landsbury, dean of the
school of music, saw his first really
w'ild bear Sunday afternoon. He met
the bear in the middle of the road in
the midst of comparatively civilized
surroundings and he has not been
able to discover since whether he or
the bear was the more terrified.
The whole thing came about quick
ly and decidedly unexpectedly as
most such encounters do. Dr. Lands
bury, lured by the beauty of the day,
took George Hopkins, Chuck Hug
gins, Ernest Nail and Rex Under
wood for a little spin up the Mc
Kenzie in the ever faithful Minetta.
Minetta covered 25 miles at her
usual clip and the brothers were
having a soulful time enjoying the
wonders of nature when suddenly in
to the middle of the road opposite
an isolated farm house waddled a
fat, very black bear. The bear was
annoyed and ran accidentally into
a barbed wire fence across the road
and bounded back into Minetta’s path.
Chuck Huggins was driving and, with
what he speaks of as amazing pres
ence of mind, he stepped on Minetta
and away the brothers sped. None of
the party was armed.
One of the most interesting of the
developments in connection with the
tale is the size of the bear, the whole
question apparently depending on the
point of view. Dr. Landsbury says
that the bear was a large one, Chuck
insists that it was a baby bear, but
all the brothers maintain that it was
very, very black.
Dr. Landsbury vouches for the
truth of the adventure with not only
his own word but that of the mem
bers of his party, whom he says are
all most upright men.
Boxing, Speeches,
Magic, Doughnuts,
Cider in Big Mix
Boxing, hula dancing, speeches and
magic were features of the annual
Y. M. C. A. mix held in the hut Fri
day night at 8 o’clock. Hal White,
Jaunt In
Landsbury fs Ford
mciuum in me \ camnet, chairman
for the evening, opened the mix with
a heart-to-heart talk on “Oregon
Spirit.” From that time on till Rev.
A. M. Spangler motioned to the cider
and doughnuts there was not a mo
ment of lull.
President P. L. Campbell, in paying
tribute to those boys who had been
overseas and returned to college this
year, urged the students to aid in
keeping the spirit of democracy alive
on the campus.
“This is an age of co-operation,”
said tlie president. "The University
lias always stood for a spirit of fair
play and a democracy that places
every man upou Ms merits.”
Brief talks were given also by Dean
Walter Morton, Shy Huntington, Stan
Anderson and Elmo Maddon, presi
dent of the “Y.” All urged a revival
of the good old Oregon spirit.
Going from the sublime to the
ridiculous, however, Joe Abies, late
of the aviation service, was introduc
ed as Madame Belle Fatima, and
such a dance as the “niadame” did
offer! Further description will be;
withheld.
N. Ludeman, who was here In thoj
S. A. T. C. days, assisted by Prof, j
Turnat Beeroff, as lie called him,
gave an exhibition in magic that was
of Orpheutn calibre.
To prove that the fresh class can
dance, Sherman Reese responded to
an encore with a “shimmie" which
would have made Cleopatra look like
Jess Willard.
Arthur Tuck stepped upon the
stage with a pair of boxing gloves
on and looked tit. for an after-dinner
tea or something similar. For the
benefit of the ladies not present, his
boxing costume was of pink char
tneuso with crepe do chine cuffs, but
Ills style of boxing was more or less
of the tub silk variety. Some fresh
man half bis stxe from Medford
danced daintily about him and the
tight ended in a double knockout.
Mr. Spangler then motioned to
ward the "eats” and the serpentine
formed, ending a most enjoyable
evening.
Herald White and Johnny Houston
were active In the arrangements for
the mix.
Y. W. TO MEET
Y. W. C. A. will hold its first
regular weekly meeting at the
Bungalow Thursday afternoon at
5 o’clock. This will furnish an
opportunity for all University wo
men to meet the new secretary.
Miss Urlth Dailey.
SCHOOL OF MUSIC HAS
ENLARGED ENROLLMENT
AND NEW PROFESSORS
Students from Nebraska, Kan
sas and North Dakota Come
For Music Only.
With an increased faculty and an
enrollment over twice as large as
it was last year, the University
school of music faces one of the
brightest years of its history, ac
cording to John J. Landsbury, dean
of the school. Students have come
from Kansas, Nebraska and North
Dakota for the sole purpose of
studying music, and the number of
students enrolled on the second day
of registration this term is easily
twice as large as that of last year,
according to Dean Landsbury. Ef
forts are being made to secure an
annex for the department.
Several new instructors have been
! added to the faculty this year, each
of whom Dean Landsbury thinks is
an artist in his line.
The band is being organized under
the supervision of Ross Hickernell,
who hopes to have every student on
the campus who can play a band
instrument of any kind sign up for
the band. He lias had much experi
ence in this work and according to
Dean Landsbury is a solo cornetist
of rare ability. He was a member of
the famous Innes band which toured
the Pacific coast in 1905. He cov
ered a distance of 21,000 miles when
on this trip. Later, on impromptu
notice, he accepted a position in the
Mozart symphony club of New York
city.
New Head for Orchestra
Rex Underwood will lead the or
chestra this year. Mr. Underwood
has a wonderful record, according to
Dean Landsbury, having had ex
tensive training under renowned
teachers. He has been a student in
the Chicago Musical college with
Joseph Olheiser, one of the greatest
teachers in the country. Later he
spent three years in Leipzig, Ger
many, with Hans Becker. After this
he studied in London with Micael
Press and in Chicago.
The department of singing will
have as its head Albert Lukken, a
college man who lias studied under
Karlton Hackett, Frederick W. Root,
Charles W. Clark and David Bis
, pham. After graduating from the
school of music he spent a year
coaching in the Aborn opera school
of New York. Between the years
1913 and 1915 he was at the head
of the singing department at the
University of North Dakota. Mr.
Lukken will have charge of the glee
clubs and with George Hopkins,
president of the glee club, will call
a meeting of glee club aspirants in
the near future.
Other Faculty Members.
As assistant to Mr. Lukken, the
school of music has obtained Miss
Martha E. Findahl, who is a pupil of
Karlton Hackett and a graduate of
the American Conservatory of Music
in Chicago. Miss Findahl taught
three years at the University of
South Dakota.
Mr. Leland Coon, organist and
pianist, will continue his classes.
Beside liis regular classes he has
added a class in pipe organ playing
to which lessons will be given in the
First Methodist church of this city.
Dean Landsbury is highly enthus
iastic over the prospects for the year
and wishes that every student who I
is interested in any line of music,
band, orchestra, piano, organ or
voice, would enroll now.

And trust that your “Col

To get the most out of

What is “Pep”? We hear a good deal about it. We talk of it. But
what do we mean about it ? It has been defined thus: It is the thing
that makes the llambs gambol with glee, the colts prance with joy, the
calves throw up their tails and run like: fury, the birds sing in split-throat,
notes, the frogs croak upon the creek banks, the insects buzz and hum in
the air, the blacksmith laughingly beat the iron into shape, the mechanic
and laborer fairly dance to their jobs, the soldier “go over the top” with
clinched jaws and courage that knows no fear, the engineer wave a kiss to
his sweetheart as he throws open the throttle and says bye-bye. Oh, “pep”
is anything that puts happiness in the heart, energy in the body, determin
ation in the soul and invincible ccmrage in the will.
Oh, yes! My Brother is a jeweler, my Father is a jeweler, my Uncle
is a jeweler and my Grandfather was a jeweler ’way back in the ’50’s, but
we forget all about that and it amounts to nothing unless we deliver the
goods. We've got the store and the goods and the “pep" and to former
students and customers we solicit a continuation of your patronage. To
the new students we welcome you to our store and assure you we can
please you.
