PRAISED BY HEBEI Mrs. George Gerlinger Says New Hall Is Fine DRAPERY IS ADMIRED Hangings Are Designed] And Made In London _% [ ‘ What I hope for all the girls is that they will be very happy in Susan Camp hell Hall, and will fit into the spirit of it.” said Mrs, George Gerlinger, woman regent of the University, who is a guest at the new hall of residence for a few days. “It is a fine experience for a girl to live with others, and learn to adapt herself to many, different temperaments. “I feel that the hall is a very beauti ful home for tin1 girls.” she continued. •'It does not have the characteristics of an institution, which is so often true of dormitories, hut has the quiet dig nity and charm of a real home.” Imported Draperies Used. “Have you seen the chintz hangings?” Mrs. Gerlinger asked. “They are William Morris chintz, designed by Morris hint self. and made in the William Morris shop in London. All of the Morris hang ings are named, and this one is called ‘The Berry Thief,’ the motif being a bird with a berry in its mouth.” The ground color of the chintz is a deep rich blue, and the design is put in with brighter colors. “The dominant note of all the Morris hangings,” the woman regent went on. “is blue. First of all. they are dy<jd blue, and then the design is put in, in gay. contrasting colors.” The chintz is now hung in the living room of the Hall, and will be up in other parts of the house within a few days. "The piano arrived today, too. con tinued Mrs. Gerlinger, “a beautiful grand piano for the living room. We have still a console table to be placed-in the en trance hall. It is here but not unpacked,” she said. “The furniture is walnut, and mostly of English design. The rugs, j you know, were all woven here in Eu-! gene -fluff rugs, made front old carpets, I in subdued tones of brown and gray. Recreation Room Feature. “One feature of the Hall that we like very much,” she continued, “is the rec reation room in the basement. It lias a fireplace and chairs, and is for good time parties when the girls want to pop corn and play informally. The room has a hardwood floor so they can dance, and they have rented a piano themselves. We could not afford just now to buy a piano for the recreation room. The fireplace is to lie fitted with a crane so the girls may make tea if they wish. “We are so glad that half of the wo men’s quadrangle is finished,” Mrs. Ger linger said. “It is unusual for a state university to have its women's miarters in this way. Some private schools have given much thought to planning their women’s section, but state schools in the west have not adopted generally the plan of having a women’s quadrangle. “I think it helps to solve some of the problems of the University to have the women’s living quarters, their gymnas ium. and the departments that belong particularly to them, all together in this way. I hope,” smiled the regent, “that it will not be very long before we can have the other half of the quadrangle, which will be more halls of residence nml hnilrlmfir for llOlllP 6CODOD11CS.

Lowden of Illinois and Goodrich of Indiana may be in Eugene this summer to enjoy fishing on the McKenzie and a bear hunt in the Cascades, if the negotiations now being conducted by Swartz brothers, McKenzie hunters and guides, are successful. Both of these middle western governors have evinced a desire to take a trip into the Cascades in Oregon, according to Swartz brothers. Both Mr. Lowden and Mr. Goodrich belong to a hunting club of 26 who have spent the last several summers in Maine woods. The last two years they have not had the best success so they have decided to come west, and 10 of their party want to come with them, accord ing to their correspondence. Mr. Goodrich has hunted with the Swartz boys before. Tf they come west if is probable the party will make their headquarters at the Swartz brothers’ ranch on the upper McKenzie and eujoy a royal hunt as well as numerous fish ing parties in Oregon’s most famous stream. CHAMBER WILL AID LEGION CONVENTION Street Decorations and Band Decided Upon; No Regular Cele bration. That the Eugene Chamber of Com merce would cooperate In every way with Lane County Post No. 4. American Le gion. in staging the state convention of the Legion here next July 1, 2, and 15, was the promise given the local post last night by the board of directors of the Chamber. The board decided to put up the street decorations, and to also hire a band for July 2. They frowned on the idea of any regular Fourth of July celebration that would in any way count as a counter attraction. Those days will be for the state convention, they promised. This will permit of other cities in Lane coun ty, planning for a celebration, to do so without fear of competition from Eu gene. Ben Dorris was spokesman for the Legion committee, which included Dr. O. A. Waller, C. S. Dillon, and Guy Mo shier, that appeared before the board. SURPLUS ARMY GOODS STORE Sixth and Willamette Sts.
