WALTER HAMPDEN 10
APPEAR NEXT WEEK
Hamlet and Othello to Be Put
on at Eugene Theater
ACTOR IS HIGHLY PRAISED
Transcontinental Tour Takes in
Portland and Salem
The appearance eof Walter Hampden
at the Eugene theater Monday and
Tuesday of next week is a dramatic
event of more than ordinary interest
to all lovers of the Shakespearean
dramas. Mr. Hampden will appear in
two of the most successful Shakespeare
an plays, “Hamlet” and “Othello.”
Hampden has been hailed by critics
as the greatest Hamlet since Booth, and
“definitely and incontestably at' the
head of all living American tragedi
ans,” according to the New York Even
ing Post. This will be his first trans
continental tour since his brilliant suc
cess in New York, where his Hamlet
was produced for 68 consecutive per
formances.
Art Placed Above Wealth
Mr. Hampden is recognized as a sec
ond Edwin Booth. He is one of the
few actors on the American stage today
who places art above riches and who
has refused many tempting offers from
leading producers in order that he
might devote his life to the portrayal
of the Shakespearean plays: “In force
of character, in power of expression,
and strength of sympathetic appeal he
measures up fully as well if he doesn’t
excell the Shakespearean genius of sev
eral generations,” is the opinion of the
Wilkes-Barre, Pa., Times-Leader,
The remarkable success achieved by
Hampden, in the opinion of the New
York Review, is due to his “ability to
touch his audience with his own rever
ence towards the noble characters in
the dramas of the great bard, and throw
high lights upon the moral forces that
shape their destiny.” For the great
daily papers to devote editorial space
to an actor is unusual and is never done
except under exceptional circumstances.
Mr. Hampden’s success can be readily
seen by the many editorials written by
all the leading papers in the largest
cities in the United States, praising his
wonderful dramatic ability.
Opportunity for Students
This opportunity for the faculty and
University students to see the two
worth-while productions, “Othello” and
“Hamlet,” is one that should be taken
advantage of because it is seldom that
•such remarkable plays are produced
here.
Mr. Hampden and his company will
come to Eugene from San Francisco,
where they played successfully for two
weeks. From here they will go to
Salem and then to Portland.
CLOSER SYMPATHY URGED
(Continued from page one)
these men, who did some constructive
thinking in history, Pasteur, Remkin,
Madame Curie, Fisher, and many
others.”
Contemporary history, maintained
Dr. Scholz, is nothing more than a long
account of political and economic strug
gles. Prevention and social control and
not ex post facto treatment of indi
vidual cases is what is needed, asserted
the speaker.
“And what does all this meant” he
questioned. “It means that the second
chapter of human achievement has been
reached. The second age of the world
has come.” He indicated that the first
age which was an age of extension of
civilization, physically, biologically and
economically, has yielded to an age in
which the question of government and
the finer details of human relationships
is primary and foremost.
Industry to Have New Bra
Dr. Scholz also spoke on the coming
of the new era in the industrial world.
“Whether we like it or not, we are
realizing that we must have more cre
ative freedom in the form of more leis
ure time, and that each person has a
life to live and form after the close of
the work-day.” He laid stress on the
fact that the students of today must
have a liberal education as well as a
specialized one.
“I am not in favor of too extensivo
growth of the universities, but on the
other hand I am not in favor of too
high a protective tariff upon higher
education. The abolition of the mill
age bill would be poor economy for the
people of the state of Oregon.” We
are afraid to pay for our education, he
asserted.
France Must Look to Future
Summarizing the hour’s rapid-fire
discussion of the foremost problems of
today, an hour which held the listeners
in a state of intense concentration that
they might not miss one of the points,
which he touched on lightly now here,
and now there with the ease of a
trained scholar and speaker, yet skill
fully blending them all into unity of
topic, Dr. Scholz concluded:
“We are finding now that the victors
of the late war cannot afford to have
the vanquished pay the indemnity.
Poor France, blinded by her suffering,
does not realize that her hope lies not
in looking toward the past but into the
future.
“Abraham Lincoln was eternally
right when he said that this country
could not exist half slave and half free,
and we may apply the same to the
world. The world cannot exist hall
solvent aiul half insolvent, half free
and half unfree.
Oppression and Force Decried
“There are those in this country who
believe that oppression and terrorism
and force should be used in this country
to weld all to one opinion, but I pro
test, and there should be more than
there are with moral courage to stand
up and protest against such methods.
They will only bring us Europe and
worse than Europe in this country.”
The University Symphony Orchestra
gave the musical program of the as
sembly. A selection from “The Merry
Wives of Windsor” was received by the
students with enthusism.
Before Dr. Scholr.’s address. Captain
Pitt of the Salvation Army made an
appeal for support for the present
money-raising drive. The invocation
was given by Rev. E. V. Stivers, pastor
of the First Christian church.
LECTURE AND PICTURES
Katmai Volcano Craters Shown
by Noted Photographer
An estimated crowd of 400 people
'filled every seat and occupied all avail
able standing room in the “Y” hut
Wednesday night when Frank I. Jones,
'noted color photographer of scenic
beauties of the Northwest, showed his
'white and black pictures, colored slides
'and moving pictures of the Valley of
Ten Thousand Smokes. Although han
dicapped by an inadequate current in
the lighting system, the pictures of a
smoking world, filled with yawning cra
ters and volcanic shattered mountains,
held the crowd in the “Y” until the
last picture had been shown, a period
of over two hours.
Before showing his pictures, Mr.
Jones recounted the geological history
of the Katmai volcano in Alaska and
read several letters from prominent
scientists giving their views on the
probable cause of the eruption in 1912
which blew off the entire top of Mt.
ivarmai, aevastaxing me iana ior many
miles and shooting a cloud of volcanic
ash high into the air, which completely
encircled the earth. Mr. Jones ex
plained the various slides as they were
shown and pointed out peculiarities of
the landscape. His colored slides were
sharp in outline and showed many pat
terns of mosaic beauty which would be
difficult for the eye to catch.
Colored views of sunsets and sun
rises on sentinel peaks of the Cascade
range received much praise from the
audience. One of the slides of most
striking beauty shown during the even
ing was a sunrise on Mt. Hood when
the lesser peaks were still dark phan
toms silhouetted against a pink sky.
Many views of Portland, the Columbia
highway and Crater lake were thrown
in colored outline on the screen.
Members of the Condon club say that
the program meeting held in the “Y”
hut Wednesday night was the most
successful since the club was organized
on the Oregon campus.
VISUAL EXHIBIT PLANNED
Extension Division to Furnish Material
for Summer Term Display
The visual instruction department of
the extension division will hold a con
tinuous exhibit in the projection rooms
during the six weeks of the summer
term that will be especially interesting
to teachers.
The display will consist of stereop
ticon lanterns, moving picture machines
and various kinds of material furnished
by the extension division. According
to Mr. Powers of the extension division,
an important part of the exhibit will
be a new stereoptieon lantern with a
six-volt globe which is fed from a stor
age battery and which can be used in
rural schools that have no direct con
nection with an electric current.
PLEDGING ANNOUNCED
Tau Kappa Alpha announces the
pledging of Claude Robinson, Ted Rice,
Boyd Iseminger, and Charles Lamb.
MORE TENNIS COURTS
ASKED BY COMMITTEE
Construction of Golf Course
Also Recommended
Construction of at least two new ce
ment tennis courts, the repairing of
the dirt courts north of the walk to
Deady, and the preparation of a four
hole. golf course were recommended in
a report to President P. L. Campbell
and the board of regents by the newly
appointed committee on intramural
sports, at its first meeting. It was also
suggested that a considerable tract of
ground be purchased for a permanent
series of tennis courts to be constructed
at a rate of not less than two yearly
until the needs of the University are
met.
The sites suggested for the new
courts were the ground north of the
Commerce building adjoining the west
court, and also the section southeast of
the Woman’s building, east of the ath
letic field, next to the street.
The proposed golf course would
promptly be laid out south of the bar
racks, utilizing the space not now used.
The purpose of this course, according
to Professor E. E. DeCou, head of the
mathematics department and chairman
of the committee, is to give an oppor
tunity to students and faculty members
for practice when they have only a
short time to play. The school of phys
ical education may arrange to have a
few sets of golf clubs available for rent
at a nominal price for those who desire
to learn the game.
The intra-mural sports committee is
a standing one, the personnel of which
is changed yearly. Those appointed by
the president for thiB year are: Pro
fessor DeCou; Miss Florence D. Alden,
head of the physical education depart
ment for women; H. A. Scott, physical
director for men; E. H. Decker, profes
sor of law, who is tennis coach; Dr. D.
E. Lancefield of the zoology depart
ment; Dr. H. B. Yocum of the zoology
department, and Carlton E. Spencer,
registrar.
The committee, since its organization
in 1915, has outlined the sport rulings
later adopted by the faculty, its purpose
being to make the intra-mural sports
the foundation for the intercollegiate
contests. It has promoted the open air
gymnasiums, the tennis courts, the re
modeling of the drill shed, and the re
organization of the physical education
department under a single head, making
it into a school.
“Owing to the building of Susan
Campbell hall, four tennis courts were
broken up,” said Professor DeCou.
“This means that in the last three years
the number of courts has decreased ap
proximately 50 per cent, while the
number of students has increased at
approximately the same rate. This
shows a real need. We hope that with
these recommendations, and with the
support of a strong student body senti
ment, the president and the board of
regents will see their way clear to make
provisions which will benefit students
and faculty alike.”
