FILMS USED FOR TEACHING
UNIVERSITY HIGH PUPILS
“The Last Days of Pompeii”
is First to be Shown
“The Last Days of Pompeii” which
was shown at the University high
school last night was the first film
to be leased by the school from the
University extension division. Later
the freshman English class expects to
make arrangements for the presenta
tion of “Macbeth” which may be fol
lowed by a showing of “The Merchant
of Venice.”
The high school is well equipped for
the showing of pictures having a semi
portable moving picture projection and
a baloptican machine by means of
which slides and opaque projections
may be used. Any illustration in a
book or magazine can be thrown upon
the screen by means of the machine.
It is used by the instructors in various
classes and a record has been kept of
the uses to which it has been put but
the results have not yet been tabu
lated, according to Rollien Dickerson,
principal. A committee has also been
appointed to make and file classifica
tions of pictures to be used in various
subjects.
“People who know psychology realize
that instruction is too verbal and book
ish,” said H. R. Douglass, of the school
of education, in discussing the visual
education. In three words Angelo
Patri, Italian educator summed up the
educational system in this country.
They wore, “Words, words, words.”
Hotter impressions can bo obtained
in shorter time than through the old
method according to Professor Doug
lass who states that in the past too
much emphasis has been placed on the
learning of facts which havo not been
understood by the students. The de
vice is used only when effective, how
ever, and the educational value is
placed above any mere consideration
of interest although in many instances
increased interest is a natural result.
It is plnnnod to be able to show
weekly current events soon.
LAST BIBLE CLASS SUNDAY
Marked Increase in Attendance Since
Beginning of Course Noted
Tomorrow will be the last day in the
All Church Attendance and Bible Class
Campaign, according to a statement is
sued today by the Student Church Co
operation committee. The cninpuign
was started early in February, and at
that time says Secretary Putnam of the
University Y. M. C. A., tlio average stu
dent church attendance was poor.
“Some of the churches,” says Secre
tary Putnam, “have recorded over a
.‘100 per cent increase in attendance and
all of them have come close on to 100
per cent at. the least. Some of the
churches have started from almost
nothing, and have now reported classes
of .'10 and 40. One such encouraging
instance is that of the Episcopal
church, which at first did not lie
lieve that there were enough students
to start a class, ami so they merely
urged student attendance at the morn
ing service. Today, the Rev. Mr. Jen
nings, the rector called me and said
that such a great amount of student
interest had been shown that he was
now starting a biblo class.”
Tickets are now being distributed
for the United Student Bible Class
Rally which will be held Wednesday
evening in the auditorium of tlm Metho
ilisl church. The Church Cooperation
Committee has placed tickets for dis
posal in the hands of a representative
in each house and at the Y. M. C. A,
and V W. C. A. All students inter
estcd as well as members of the classes
are urged to secure a ticket and be
present. There will be no charge for
the tickets.

FIRST “POP” CONCERT
BY ORCHESTRA LAUDED
Overture to “William Tell” Given Praise for
Technique and Interpretation; Lora Tesh
ner and John B. Siefert Given Applause
By I ROFESfeOR LELAND COON
At its second concert appearance of
the college year the University Or
chestra under .he effiiient direction of
Rex Underwood inaugurated a novel
custom, when on Thursday evening it
gave the first of a series of “Pop”
concerts. In reality this term is a
misnomer for the type of program of
fered deserves a more pretentious title.
There was a most commendable infor
mality attending this hour of music:
there were no programs, the numbers
were announced from the stage—-but
apparently everyone had come for the
sake of the anticipated enjoyment.
Judging by the applause no one was
disappointed. !
In Rossini’s overture to “William
Tell” the orchcestra succeeded in bring
ing out the effects of light and shade,
of preparation and climax which must
be observed in the correct interpreta
tion of a work of this nature. The
solo parts for cello and flute, taken by
Miss Teshner and Miss Clark respec
tively, were delivered in exceedingly
good taste, while the string section
proved itself capable of furnishing a
well balanced background for the tonal
picture.
“Valse Triste” by Jean Sibelius, of
the modern Finnish school, presents a
decidedly doleful yet scintillatinglv at
tractive atmosphere and furnishes a
marked contrast to the “Einzugs
marsche der Bojaren,” by Halvorsen,
which was of such a melodic and
rhythmic appeal as to demand the only
repetition given by the orchestra. Its

lin, throwing the discus, and anything
clso he can find to do to get in con
dition. The pole vault is Tubby’s long
suit and ho Hhould be able to make some
body hustle to beat him out in the con
ference this year.
Speaking of the quality of athletics
at Oregon, Bill says that other schools
make things so attractive for top notch
ers that they go there. It seems that
some of theBO schools do not confine their
activities to the preparatory schools, but
sometimes come to other colleges when
some good prospect shows up.
Prospects Discouraging
Under these conditions it is rather hard
for the coaches to know what to dopend
on, and it is somewhat discouraging.
Nevertheless there soems to be little
reason why Oregon should fare so badly
this year if the students got behind tho
coaches and give things a boost. What
the coaches need is material,—the best
material in school,—to work on, anil they
do not feel that they are getting it, hence
Bill’s remark that he could go through
any of the men’s houses and pick out
better material than is now turning out.

A joint program given by the men's

enticing, moving power sent to the

Dorman played the clairnet solos in a
most commendable fashion.
Miss Lora Teshner, cellist, gave an
artistic, and finished rendition of Wag
ner’s “Evening Star,” from “Tann
haeuser,” which merited the recall ac
corded her when she played the (lodard
“Berceuse.” Miss Teshner’s work was
marked by tonal and interpretative ex
cellence and a surity which inspires
confidence on the part of the audience
John B. Siefert, whose singing has
already made him a favorite on the
campus and in many other sections of
Oregon, fully sustained his reputation
in the “Prize Song” from Wagner’s
“ Meistersingers” which was sung in
German and with orchestral accompani
ment. After hearing this 'exquisite
number so well sung one could not
doubt the success of Mr. Siefert \s ap
pearance in the east when without pre
vious rehearsal he sang the sam “Prize
Song” with the Russian Symphony
Orchestra before an audience of 5000,
and was so well received that an of
fer of a tour with the orchestra fol
lowed. Clear diction, crystal clear
resonance, and consummate ease fur
nished just grounds for the singer’s
triumph. Mr. Siefert responded to an
insistent recall with “Mary of Argyle”
a Scotch number by Nelson.
When campus and townsfolk realize
what excellent music they can hear
for the paltry sum of 25 cents they
will pack Villard for the next of the
series of concerts.

in this district and will play in the
finals at Salem next week. It is to be
a strictly stag affair. There will prob
ably be about one hundred present in

BART SPELLMAN WILL BE
ASSISTANT IN FOOTBALL
Huntington Says Better Work
and Less Expense is Aim
Only one assistant will be needed to
■ aid in coaching the Varsity football
! squad next fall, according to “Shy”
! Huntington, head eoach here. Shy
i does not think that as much co-opera
tion and smooth working can be ac
complished with two assistants as with [
one and that the benefits to the team
from a second assistant would not war
rant the extra expense during the com
ing season.
Bart Spellman, recently re-elected
assistant coach by the executive coun
cil, is one of the best line coaches in
ithe country, in the opinion of Hun
tington. With his help Shy firmly be
lieves that as much can be accomplished
as was done last fall with two assist
ants. It is thought that the excellent
work of the Oregon line last season
was due to the coaching and personal
direction of Spellman.
Huntington has been assured by
[ Bart that he will accept the offer of
I the executive council and will return
j to take up the work next fall. Brick
Mitchell acted as the other assistant
during the past season, when he de
voted most of his time to developing

WHY GIRLS LEAVE
Lip Sticks for Rifles
At last au explanation for the increas
ng number of girls enrolling in the mili
ary rifle classes has been uncovered.
News of how a snappy cuss ruthlessly
mocked a woman dead with a wicked
jlance, has at last escaped, and the
vomen are flocking to arms as last de
fense, since the other sex have become so
■ompetent as they in the artful practice
>f optical manipulation.
The big question in their minds is, how
lid they get that way? Ah, girls, the
nen have one over you, for it’s OBAK ’8
jilliard tables that’s turned the trick.
\.ny eye, for one from baseball, checkers,
lown to women, can find no better train
ng than working a billiard balL
But the ladies must be given credit
for making dose scores on the range.

could begin to worry if his lead over any
'ther cigar store in town dropped lower

He is able to stay at the head of the
ist because of the complete stock of
fresh smokes he constantly has on hand,
because his tables are always kept tip
op, because you pay only for the time
hat you play and no more.
And then he is able to serve a real belt

vith the other eating places in town.

OBAK’S SALOON
of Pictures Good
Last Saturday marked the closing of
the picture exhibition of one of the well
known' campus artists. The collection
was composed of many scenes of beauty
spots in both Oregon and California.
We feel that this is the sort of thing
we westerners need. So the spirit
prompted OBAK to install his down
town picture saloon.
The OBAK collection is composed, in
the main, of a historical University of
Oregon groups with scenes dating back
as far as 1898. Mixed with these are
several eastern productions.
When you inspect this showing we
would like to call your attention to No.
44, called the “Original Oregon Spirit.”
It artfully depicts the University foot
ball team of 1898 registering repose.
’ Notice the symbolism of fight, hard work
and subsqeuent fatigue, so skillfully ex
! emplified by their lying around and lean
ing on each other.
An examination of the facial contours
of the figures has led many critics to be
lieve that this aggregation gained their
power by their ability ot hypnotize the
1 opposition. Others, well versed in his
tory. claim that the Samson theory of
strength in curls is the secret of their
power.
While some think that the extended
coiffure is the result of a barber’s strike
and that their ability was derived from
the strong drink then served on all train
i ing tables.
At any rate there is one problem for
; v ou, and that is just how these poor men
pass their time when off the books, as
| OBAK S was then unknown.
We urge every one to stop, look and
think about the Oregon of yesterday.
Then you will be grateful for the many
blessings of the day because OBAK ser
vice and prices are distinctly a present
day development. Never in our history
have we been able to care for your need
of real recreation or give you values 'ike
those we give today.
