Landsbury, dean of the Univer sity school of music, which was sched uled for December 9, has been changed to Saturday evening, December 10, and will take place at 8:30 in Villard hall. This concert, which is the third of a series arranged by the Woman s league in order to clear a deficit remaining from the Portland Symphony orchestra concert in the spring, will mark the first public appearance of Dean Lands bury on the campus since 1914, his first year at the University. The program, which has just been announced, is made up entirely of romantic and modern music, and includes a wide range of selections. Dean Has Broad Experience Last fall Dean Landsbury toured the Northwest as accompanist for Arthur Middleton, who is to appear in con cert on the campus in the winter term. Previous to his coming to the Univer sity as a member of the faculty of the school of music, he taught at Simpson college, Indianola, Iowa, his alma mater, and did concert work throughout the Middlewest. His graduate work was taken under Dr. Bruch in the Meisterschule, University of Berlin. Upon coming to the University of Ore gon from the Middlewest, Dr. Lands bury assumed charge of the department of composition, and reorganized the piano department. Since being made dean of the school he has devoted his entire time to its development, and to ward the realization of the dream of a new music building.

After that great game at Pasadena in 1916 I had the honor of being one of the frosh who bore on their shoulders the man who made the team that beat Pennsylvania. I consider that the greatest moment of my life at that time. I now hold this the greatest moment of my life, the welcoming home of Hugo Bezdek.” Shy Lauds Him “Shy” Huntington was the next one who spoke. “I am awfully glad to see Hugo Bezdek again,” he said. I played under him three years and fought for him. There was not at that time a man working under him who was not fighting. When I was chosen as his successor I had a hard place to fill. “Bez” taught me all I know! about football. Only today on the football field while he was watching the team work out he gave me some pointers and taught me some more foot ball. I think Hugo Bezdek the best coach in the United States. I hope that someday Oregon may be able to have “Bez” back.” Chief Justice James Coke of the Hawaiian Islands told of the prepara tions which were being made there to receive the Oregon team. He said that he believed that the Varsity was going to meet a strong football aggregation and that they had better be prepared to use all of the old fight that they had shown all season. Praises State When Bezdek was introduced the noise of the cheering was so great that it seemed as if the very walls trembled and that the balcony creaked under the force. He rose smiling to address an audience which fully ex pressed the love and admiration which they have and will have for him. He spoke in clear distinct tones and seemed to have made up his mind def initely as to what he would say to the Oregon student body. “You have a great state,” he be gan and the crowd immediately burst out yelling. “I say that Pennsylvania is a good state. Many a time since I left Oregon have I been homesick. I had the fire of ambition of youth when I was called to Pittsburg to take over the managership of the Pirates there. I went to “Prexy” Campbell and asked him as I would my father whether or not he thought I should ac cept the position. He told me that it was a very excellent opportunity and that I should accept. Oregon Gets Praise “In time T gained in wealth and reputation. Still T thought of the happy years that I had here. They say that there comes a time in a man's life when the ambition within him set tles down into good hard work. I hope that that period has come in my life. I have received wonderful ova tions which I hardly deserve. But I could not resist the invitation which was extended to me. I yearned to sneak back and sneak away again. But when in Rome I believe in doing as the Romans, so I have fallen in line with your program. “I know that you will want to know the attitude which the Eastern col leges have toward your University. Oregon holds the respect of the best colleges of the East. There are stu dents from Oregon scattered all over the East who are boosting for their Alma Mater. After the Harvard game two boys came around to the dressing room and began to boost Oregon to me. On the train coming out here I met people who sounded the praises of this state and I joined in with them. They say that no one boosts like an uregoman. Contrasts East and West “One difference between the East and the West in regard to football is the attitude with which they regard outdoor sports. The yomen and men of Eastern populations have an absorb ing interest in the game. They are extremely interested in the personnel of th different teams. I can see now where “Prexy” Campbell got his love of sports. It was during his two or three years stay at Harvard that he secured that. They are very much like “Prexy” back there. “Another difference between the East and the West is that of loyalty to the coaching staff. Back there it is a cold-blooded proposition. If the coach does not produce results he is given a release regardless of the senti ment which he may have won. Here in the year 1913 we had a hard year getting a start but we always had the student, body behind us.” At the close of this talk the band burst forth and the students sang “Mighty Oregon” as Hugo Bezdek, idol of the University of Oregon, hur ried off the platform to a waiting car which conducted him to the five-thirty northbound S.

OREGON APPEALS TO GIRLS (Continued from page one) picked up a horseshoe during their journey through Ohio. This equine slipper was handy in her haversack when the snake bit Miss Wylson and served as the instrument which killed the serpent. Miss Halstead showed the horseshoe to the Emerald reporter, ex plaining that the nice polish was the result of much carrying. For two weeks the youthful hikers rested in a hunting lodge in the Twin Lakes coun try of Idaho. The seasonal Oregon rains have not discouraged the pedestrians. “I just love Oregon,” said Miss Halstead. Both vow that they are going to make their folks come to Oregon to live. As they were shown over the Oregon campus, the sun peeped over the Cas ThisIsNoBoast!

Miss Halstead has scattered the leather of three pair of boots across the conti nent. They have not ridden on a train once since leaving the East. The college pedestriai s keep a de tailed record of their adventures to be used for future publication. Every night Miss Wylson writes a long letter to her mother. Sometime today the girls expect to continue their journey southward to San Francisco and Los Angeles. They are not certain if they will hike back home or buy an automobile in Cali fornia. COMING!
