IN OKI DRAMA
THREE PLAYS TO BE GIVEN
Proceeds Go to Women's Building;
Miss Mary Perkins in Charge of
Sale of Tickets.
Three one-act plays will be given on
May 22, in Guild Hall, by the Drama
League of the Little Theatre of Port
land, under the direction of Mrs. Dent
Mowrey and Mrs. John Claire Mon
teith, business manager, for the bene
fit of the Women’s building. These
plays are: "The Stronger,” by Au
gust Strindberg; "Riders to the Sea,”
by J. M. Synge, and “The Maker of
Dreams," by Olipliant Down.
“The Riders to the Sea” is one of
the modern tragedies, written In Eng
lish. It is the story of an Incident
connected with an Irish fishing village
in the Aren Islands and was written
for the Irish Theatre which, under W.
B. Yeats, is said to be one of the
greatest Little Theatre movements in
the world, according to Miss Helen
Rhodes, of the art department, who
has charge of the advertising for the
plays here.
One English critic is quoted as say
ing of this particular play: “It is the
tragic masterpice of our language, in
our time. Wherever it has been played
in Europe from Galway to Prague, It
has made the word "tragedy” seem
something more profoundly stirring
and cleansing to the spirit than it ever
has before."
Mrs. A. SchrofT and Professor Fergus
Reddle have charge of the properties.
The sale of tickets is under the direc
tion of Miss Mary Perkins and Miss
Gertrude Talbot is to take charge of
the entertainment of the players.

MARY SPILLER AWARD
HELPS GIRLS THROUGH
Scholarship Given by State Alumni
Association for a Year to High
School Girl.
"It was tho Mary Ftplller Scholarship
which enabled mo to go through tho
University," writes Helen Withycombe
’IS. "Now 1 command a bettor posi
tion than 1 could have if 1 had not had
the training. What the scholarship
lias done for mo i should like to see
passed on to others.”
Miss Withycombe was ttie tlrst girl
to graduate from the University with
the assistance of the Mary Sptller;
Scholarship, receiving it as a gift the
first year and a loan the other years.
She now holds a position in tho As
toria high schools.
The Mary Spiller Scholarship Is sup-,
ported by the State Alumnae Asocia-;
tlon of Oregon. It was named for the]
first woman member of the University!
faculty.
Each woman who has graduated
from the University pays a member
ship fee of $1 a year, which is used
almost solely for the scholarship fund.!
Members of the graduating class payj
an entrance fee of lifty cents. These
fees are the sole source of income for
the scholarship.
Applicant Must Be From Oregon.
The scholarship provides for room
and board in Hendricks Hall, given for
the freshman year, and may be loaned
the other three years, us in the case
of Miss Withycombe, to be paid back
without interest after graduation. A
girl graduate of any accredited high
school in Oregon (outside of Lanei
county) may apply for the scholarship,
film must be mentally, morally and1
physically fit and must need the aid
of tho scholarship in order to attend
the University. She must be reason
ably sure that she will graduate from
Oregon.
"In past years,” said Mrs. Jennie
Beatie-Harris, ’96, secretary • treasurer,
of the association, "we have not had
enough applicants for the scholarship.
There has been almost no competition.
I am very anxious to have the senior
women who intend to teach after
graduation, find out ahout the scholar
ship so that when they go out as teach
ers, they may be able to recommend
some girl for the scholarship who oth
erwise could not come to Oregon."
Officers of Association.
The officers of the association for
this year are: Edith Veazie Bryson, [
’97, president, Eugene; Louise Jones,
’04, first vice-president, Portland; Mary
Rothrock Culbertson, ’07, second vice
president, Hood River; Jennie Beatie
Harris, ’96, secretary - treasurer, Sa
lem; Sophie Catlin Spears, ’ll, corre
sponding secretary, Salem, and Celia
V. Hager, ’12, advisory, Eugene.
WOMEN’S BUILDING
WORK IS DELAYED
Difficulty in Transportation Is Cause
of Trouble; More Money Is Needed;
Bids Yet to Be Let.
Difficulty in transportation of build
ing materials will probably prevent
the finishing of the Women’s building
in time for the fall term, according to
Professor P. P. Adams, instructor in
the architectural department. Enough
bricks have been shipped in to finish
the building, although they were so
late in arriving that work was greatly
delayed; The roof would have been
finished by this time if the bricks had
come when ordered, said Professor
Adams.
The outside walls up to the second
floor have been constructed, and the
main floor has been laid. All cement
work, such as the swimming pool and
courts inside, were finished several
months ago, while plumbing and elec
tric wiring is being installed as the
work progresses.
Bids are to be let soon for inside
partitions, and other finishings such
aB casings, window sills, and mould
ings. The windows, doors and other
Inside additions are ready for placing,
according to Professor Adams.
Difficulty has been met in obtaining
marble for interior finishing and dec
oration, and at present none is availa
ble. The marble will be procurable
later, however, and will be put in when
the building is more nearly completed.
The amount to be raised to finish
the Women’s building probably has
diminished to $10,000 or less, accord
ing to Karl Onthank.
