CONCERT TRIO IS GIVEN
PRAISE BY JOHN SIEFERT
Jane Thacher, Rex Underwood
Miss Teshner Please
By JOHN B. SIEFERT
On Tuesday evening in the Central
Presbyterian church one of the most de
lightful concerts imaginable was given
by Jane Thacher, pianist and Rex Un
derwood, violinist, assisted by Lora
Teshner, cellist. The audience was
wonderfully enthusiastic and their gen
uine and spontaneous applause, no
doubt, assured the artists just how
highly their work was appreciated.
The lovely “Sonata in C Minor”—
Grieg, with its tinges of quaint Nor
wcgian melodies, especially in the A1
legro Animate, was given an excellent
reading by Mr. Underwood and Mrs.
Thacher. Precision, excellent carrying
of the melodic lines, attacks and a genu
ine intelligent reading throughout, made
it a joy to hear.
Mrs. Thacher Brilliant
Mrs. Thacher followed with a group
of four splendidly selected numbers.
On this occasion, ns well as on previous
ones, she convinced her audience, with
out the shadow of a doubt, that she
has brought her playing to a standard
that is only reached bv “a chosen few.”
She has power, brilliancy, accuracy,
temperment and an ease of execution
that make her rank high as a concert
artist of splendid attainments.
The “Rigaudon” by Raff was played
with such verve and brilliancy that the
audience fain would have had a rnpi
tition of it, as indicated by their whole
hearted and genuine applause. Rubin
stein ’s very musical and melodious
“Barcarolle” fairly ripled from the
keyboard so charmingly was it played.
“Reflections on the Waters” by De
bussy, with its wierd and intricate
harmonies, likewise received a splendid
interpretation, ns did Carpenter’s
"American Polonaise.” The artist add
ed a short “Prelude” by Chopin as an
encore.
Underwood Is Artist
Mr. Underwood plnvs splendidly in
deed, giving all his work the touch of
a mature artist. He draws a beautiful
tone, which he combines with a brilliant
technique and, at all times, convinces
his listeners of his true artistic worth.
The "Chnnson Meditation” by Cottenet,
with its appealing melodies, met with
instant approval on the part of his
listeners. But. it was in the “Gypsy
Serenade” by Valdez, and the andante
and allegro movements from Mendel
ssohn’s “Concerto” that he rose to his
greatest heights. The Mendelssohn con
certo is one of the most beautiful and
appealing of all violin concertos and
its overliness was splendidly sot forth
by Mr. Underwood. A portion of the
“Gypsy Serenade” was repeated and
Dvorak's “SongH Mv Mother Taught
Me” was added as nn encore.
Tn the “Trio—Opus 27” by Schutt,
Miss Tiora Teshner assisted Mrs.
Thacher and Mr. Underwood. This
young artist is rapidly coming to the
fore, by reason of her lovely tone and
fine musicianship. The trio received
nn exceptionally fine reading and made
one long to hear more of such excellent
ensemble playing.
Ttn> proceeds »f the recital are to bo

VISITS OREGON CAMPUS
Dr. Roy E. Dickerson, Chief Geologist
of Oriental Oil Company
Here to See Packard
Dr Roy E. Dickerson, chief geologist
of the Richmond Petroleum company
of the Philippine Islands, a subsidiary
of the Standard Oil company, was on

Dickerson is well known as a geologist,
having written a number of papers on
West coast geology.
Dr. Dickerson arrived in Seattle Mon
day on a business trip to California
from the Orient.
While on the campus Dr. Dickerson
spoke before geology majors on certain
geological features of the Orient While
in Japan he was entertained at the
University of Tokio and met several
noted Japanese geologists.
Evidence that the region between
Sumatra, anil Borneo was formerly land
was cited by Dr Dickerson in that tin
deposits now covered by the ocean and
that fresh water fish of a species identi
cal with those of Sumatra fresh water
Streams are found at the heads of
streams on a distant coast, indicating

EPIDEMIC IS DISCUSSED
AT MEETING OF FACULTY
Business Session is Shortest in History;
Suggestion That Hour Exams he
Postponed is Slade up
“For the first time in the history of
faculty meetings, the business was tran
sacted in less than ten minutes,” said
Dean Dyment, speaking of the meeting
which was held this afternoon in Guild
Hall.
Following the short business meeting,
Dean Dovard, head of the University
Health Service, discussed the epidemic
of colds and grippe that is now prevelant
on the campus. He urged that the ban
on social gatherings be strictly adhered
to, and that the students be impressed
with the importance of reporting prompt
ly all cases of sickness.
‘‘Students afflicted with the form of
grippe which is now prevelant are con.
fined to their beds for two or three
days,” said Dean Bovard, and this con
finement is followed by a period of de
pression usually lasting for two to four
days, during which time a student should
not attent classes.”
Dean Bovard suggested that Bince so
many students were forced to be ab
sent from classes, hour examinations
should be postponed until attendance is
again normal.
Professor Bam Bass Warner, of the
Daw school, presented a statement signed
by 25 members of the faculty, requesting
that an open forum, in the form of a
‘‘round table” discussion, be formed for
the purpose of exchanging ideas on
methods of instructing, and other mat
ters connected with faculty work. This
idea met with the approval of the mem
bers of the faculty, and H. D. Sheldon,
dean of the School of Education, was
appointed chairman of the committee
to draw up plans for the organization.
Other members of the committee will be
appointed later by Dean Sheldon.
Professor Peter Corckatr asked the co
operation of the faculty in the drive
that is being conducted for the relief of
Europoan students.
FROSH WILL DIVULGE NO
SECRETS OF ANNUAL BUST
Yearlings Come Back With Claim of
Biggest and Best But Flans
Are Kept in Dark
Nearly every day finds a little group
off in some corner of some building
earnestly discussing the Frosh Glee
which is to be held February 10 in the
downtown armory. They are only the
various committees which have been
appointed to make the affair the big
I gest success of the season. Plans are
progressing nicely, the chairman for
the dnnee admits, and the list of pat
rons will be ready for announcement
1 within the noxt two days.
The music, if the committee is to be
believed, will be the best available on
the campus. Decorations, which are to
be unique, are to remain a secret, Fred
Young, chairman of the decorations
committee, says. There will be a pro
gram of I t dances and two extras. Tho
nature of the programs is also to be
kept in tho dark; but hints dropped
by the wily committeemen suggest
that they are to be clever.
While the nffnir is given by the
fresh, it for everyone, from the most
dignified senior to the most enthusi
astic fresh, and a keen time is promised.
MEETING IS POSTPONED
The meeting of the executive com
mittee, which was scheduled for last
night, has been indefinitely postponed,
according to Lyle Bartholomew, presi
dent of the associated students, and
head of the committee. Dean Bovard,
Jack llenefiel, Dean Walker, and others
of the committee are on the sick list
at present, and the meeting will not
be held until they recover.
PHYSICS CLASS MAY CUT
UNIVEHSITY’S FUEL BILL
Pre-Engineers Experimenting
With Heat Values
Experiments which may mean the
saving of considerable sums in the Uni
versity heating plant are being con
ducted by the class in theoretical phys
ics, according to Dr. A. E. Caswell,
head of the pre-engineering department.
The experiments have to do with the
determination of the heat available
from various fuels. The substance
j giving off the greatest amount of heat,
! expressed in British thermal units, at
i the least cost, can be determined by
I comparison.
The apparatus used is designed to
ascertain conditions. Essentially it con
j sists of a small heating stove encased
■ in a double metal jacket, the outer
; jacket being in the form of a water
tank completely enclosing the heater.
By comparing the temperatures of the
water before and after the burning of a
definite weight of fuel the thermal
j units given off can be determined.
Fir Fuel is Tested
Body fir is the only fuel tested so
far but, experiments are to be con
ducted on other fuels sold in Eugene,
such as slab balm, oak, spruce and sec
ond growth fir. A section of body fir
containing all the different parts of
the tree such as oarK, pitch ana center
revealed the fact that it is approxi
mately three times as expensive to use
gas as body fir, Dr. Caswell says. The
efficiency of gas, however, lies in the
fact that consumption can be stopped
immediately and that there is little
waste of the thermal units which are
available.
Tn technical parlance one pound of
body fir yields 25 British thermal
units while the state law requires that
one cubic foot shall contain 600 such
units. Tn the laboratory, however, not
more than 400 thermal units are ob
tained from a cubic foot of gas.
Fir Cheaper Than Slab Wood
Four cords of body fir will go about
ns far as five cords of slab wood, the
fuel now used at the University heat
ing plant, says W. K. Newell, superin
tendent of properties, who bases his
statement on observations at the Uni
versity plant.

RESOLUTION MADE
(Continued from page one)
fleeting on his institetion.
Given Final Authority
“Third—That final authority on all
questions of larger policy in regard to
athletic relations rests with the ad
ministrative authorities of the several
institutions. In view of this fact,
action on questions of policy by the
Northwest and Pacific Coast confer
ences is subject to review by the execu
tives of the institutions represented in
these conferences.”
President Campbell stated that col
lege work must be considered first and
that he would consider it advisable for
athletes to take lighter courses if it were
necessary for them to work outside dur
ing athletic seasons.
The whole proposition of jobs for
athletes is contained in the affidavits
which the players are required to sign
before they become eligible, he said.
In these statements information as to
the kind of a job, the amount of time
put in and the pay received must be
sworn to. He brought out the fact that
there should be no distinction made as
to whether or not the man worked in
his department or in some other depart
ment for money.
The problem will be made a great
deal more simple by the provision that
rumors of violations be immediately
transmitted to the executive of the
other schools, was the opinion voiced at
the meeting in Portland.

Photography Is an Art
Many of our customers wonder at the results we are able
to produce. They say that our photos are more than mere
picutres and wonder -why we are different from the average
studio.
The truth is that our studio is not much different from the
average. We use cameras, just like the others. Our portraits
are different, because of the personal element; retouch, cor
rect exposure and printing. Then we have wonderful success
in posing our subjects.
All in all it is our ability to produce better photo-portraits,
that gives us a claim on your patronage.
