    GRADE SHEET
In Need of Radical Changes
and Live News Features, Says
EDITOR-TO-BE
And in an Attempt to Defeat
Carny and E. J. H. He Says He
WOULD GIVE I’S
1
By Jay Dm
Both E. J. H. and Carny too, in poli
tics make their debut, and so I says to
me, says I, “Why don't you runt They
don’t bat high. The field is split, I’ll
•vote for me, we’ll be the high man of
the three.” That being settled I began
to wonder where I’d run my man. At
first we thought frosh president, but
failed to get Dean Straub’s eonsent.
Then after many hours of thought a
brilliant hunch I sudden got. “ As ed
itor I can’t be beat. I’ll run me for
the old grade sheet.”
• • •
So here I run, and rivals note that
I’ve been pledged the labor vote. The
hoboes, too, are backing me and sev
eral students, maybe three. Old Pio
neer Pete runs my campaign and he’ll
be steadfast, wind or rain. The regis
trar, I must confess, is out agin’ me,
more or less, but what’s the odds, the
working man will vote for me with all
his clan.
• • •
My platform is “Ain’t we got funt”
and “All we give for grades is one.”
For features, “Polly and Her Pals” and
full page cuts of bathing gals. We’ll
advertise good copper stills along with
Binkum’s liver pills. We’ll print the
sheet on paper pink and smear it up
with scarlet ink. No more will stu
dents have to gaze on faded blacks and
dirty grays because as editor I’ll see
this grade sheet’s bright as bright can
be.
• • •
A charter member, so I be, A. S. U.
O. and T. O. C. I have been rushed
by Kn Elux Elan and am an ardent
handball fan. What more, I ask, waB
ever done by any man who ever runt
And then I’ve written blue books full
of unadulterated bull. Oh, I’m a letter
man of note, I know my A B C’s by
vote.
• • •
So listen, Carny, listen here, you and
your friend are doomed this year. The
.dark horse now is in the race and he
-will set an awful pace. So you and
E. J. H. key down, a wooden horse has
etormed your town. Go on about your
-peaceful ways and may the Lord pro
dong your days. For he who runneth
last runs best, in politics as well as
jest.
STUDENTS HAVE PARTS
IN SHAKESPEAREAN PLAY
Audience Fails to Recognize Two
University Men Appearing as
Spearsmen in Hamlet
Thousands of lines have been written
-praising to the vaulted heavens the
superb acting of Walter Hampden in
Hamlet, but not a line has yet beeD
typed in tribute to the acting of two
University students who assisted the
great work of the master actor. Edwin
Keech and Ted Baker, members of the
dramatic department, had a role in
Hamlet, presented in the Eugene the
atre Tuesday night, and believing that
merit should not go unrewarded, a paen
of praise is about to be recorded.
Brave spearmen were these two
lads—armored actors who stood staid
and straight and staunch as notable
figures moved across the Shakespearean
stage. Their enunciation was perfect—
for they spoke not a word. They moved
with grace and in a lithesome manner,
and they moved but twice—once coming
on the stage and once going off.
Perhaps Keech and Baker were not
recognized by University students and
members of the faculty in the audience,
but it is a fact that they played with
Walter Hampden in Hamlet. Encased
in their snug-fitting tin suits, standing
at attention as prescribed in the
knighthood manual of arms, the two
University students achieved the honor
of having appeared on the stage with
-the greatest of all Shakespearean act
ors, Walter Hampden.
“Beau of Bath” an Enchanting,
Cynical, Unique Bit, Says Reddie')
“ 'Beau of Bath’ is a most enchant- 1
ing little drama, unique, a bit cynical, (
■which, with the excellent cast, the un- i
usually effective lighting arrangements £
and especially selected costumes, will
be an act that will be pleasing and ap- c
preeiated from every point of view,” j
said Prof. Fergus Beddie, head of the t
dramatics department, in speaking of 2
this skit, a special feature of the Junior t
Vaudeville at the Eugene theater Sat- t
urdav night. t
Claire Keeney, who is directing the g
act, will play the part of the Beau; 1
Irene 8tewart will take the part of a
Bosamind, an old love, and Darrell g
Larsen will be the servant. All three I
are prominent campus dramatic stars,
and are especially known for their ex- ^
-eellent character work. g
The scene of the playlet is in a quaint ^
town of Bath, in northern France, and e
the entire act is in rhyme, part of _
which is set to music. Costumes have

O O' B
Port Wine, in
Cache 15 Years
Is Discovered
Academic life in the University may i
not have been so dry in ‘'the good old
days” after all, at least not if four
bottles of what is said by competent
authority to be port wine, which were
unearthed by workmen digging a
trench in front of Mary Spiller hall
yesterday, is to be taken as an indi
sation.
In uncovering an old pipe line about
10 feet directly in front of the steps
>f Mary Spiller hall, four brown pint
jottles nearly full of an almost forgot
ten fluid were discovered by the work
men. They were lying along the pipe
about two feet below the surface of the
pound. |
The contents were carefully sampled (
sy some of the men and by investiga
tors of the find and it was agreed that 1
;t was a species of port wine. The 1
mottles must have been buried for at ,
east 15 years, according to H. M.
Fisher, former superintendent of 1
pounds, as Mary Spiller hall was just 1
jeing completed when he came to the j
University in 1908 and the pipe had
already been laid at that time.
How the bottles happened to be
>laced there is a mystery, unless some
’ar-sighted student placed them there
n anticipation of a long distant reunion
if his class. They are now in the cus
ody of John Hanna, present superin
endent of grounds.

Positions with die Announcement of Beatrice

for Council; Rosebraugh Out for Yell King
Nominations for all A. S. U. O. offices will take place at the regular
itudent assembly in Villard hall this morning, and will mark the end
>f a busy political campaign in which more candidates have announced
heir intentions of entering the race prior to the day of nominations
ban ever before in the history of the University. Although there
s a provision in the constitution which provides that further nomin
itions may be made by petition, signed by fifty students and filed with
he secretary before two days after nominations have elapsed, it is
lot probable that this privilege will be used to any great extent.
BIT! ABSENCES ALARM
MAJOR BAIRD SEEKS ACTION ON
OUTS IN MILITARY DRILL
Proposal to Suspend Students from
University for Non-attendance;
Minor Motions Considered
On account of the excessive number
of absences that have occurred in the
ranks of the R. O. T. C., Major R. C.
Baird of the military department will
seek faculty action on the matter at the
next regular meeting in June. Major
Baird gave notice at the meeting of the
faculty yesterday of his intention to
present a motion which he hopes will
effectively cope with the situation.
His motion provides that five unex
cused absences of any'student in the
military department will automatically
cause him to be dropped from registra
tion in the University, and that he may
be reinstated only after petition to the
faculty and additional payment of a
two dollar fee. The faculty will take
action on the matter at its next meet
ing.
Dr. James D. Barnett of the depart
ment of political science presented a
motion prohibiting instructors from
permitting students to go into courses
for which they cannot receive credit.
After being amended to make the same
condition for visitors, the motion was
passed.
The motion whose passage was sought
by Dr. Bovard of the department of
physical education, authorizing the in
creasing of the physical education re
quirement for men in the lower di
vision from two to three hours a week,
was laid aside for consideration at the
next meeting. The reason given for
delaying the action, which is merely a
technicality, is that it is desired that
Dr. Bovard present in combination with
his motion a general report of the state
of affairs in the department of phys
ical education. Since the beginning of
the year the department has placed its
requirements at three hours under the
assumption that it had received faculty
sanction. Upon discovering the error,
correction was sought. No opposition
is expected.
The motion presented by Dean Shel
don of the school of education at the
faculty meeting in April and referred
to a special committee for investigation,
was passed. The motion requires cer
tain courses of study to be pursued be
fore a recommendation for a teacher’s
certificate will be iosued.
NEW UNIFORMS WILL FIT
Advanced B. O. T. C. Students’ Outfits
to Be Individually Tailored
Tailored uniforms, from individual
measurements, will be worn by advance
course students in the military depart
ment next year instead of the ready
made ones now allotted at the begin
ning of each year, according to Major
R. C. Baird, head of the military de
partment. The department is now con
sidering contracts for the tailoring of
the uniforms.
Previously the government has sup
plied the University B. O. T. C. unit
with ready-made uniforms for both j
basic and advanced course students, but
under the new system money will be
allowed the military department to
have the uniforms tailored to the ad
vance course students’ measurement.
Freshmen and sophomores taking !
military work will be allotted uniforms
97 the quartermaster as was done this
yew.
a vontaDie ueiugo or candidates
stopped into the race at a late hour
last night and indications point to stiff
competition for practically every posi
tion. Threfe men decided to run for the
senior representative positions on the
Student Council, raising the total num
ber of aspirants to six, with three of
the six to be elected. George Adler,
Bill Purdy and Hadden Rockhey were
the previous candidates, while the three
new ones are Sid Hayslip, Ole Larson
and Don Zimmerman.
Art Rosebraugh, assistant yell king
during the past year, has decided to
enter the campaign for the position of
varsity yell king. No other candidates
have been announced for the place.
Beatrice Morrow Out
Other last minute developments were
the announcement of Beatrice Morrow
for senior representative on the execu
tive council. This assures a race for
the position, for Inez King had previ
ously decided to become an aspirant for
the position. Price Sullivan entered ,
the race for sophomore representative ,
on the council and will contest with ,
Joyle Dahl and Don Woodward. One
is to be elected.
i
The situation as to the other candi- •
dates and the offices being sought re- ]
mained unchanged after a busy political ,
day yesterday. As yet there are no ,
candidates for the two positions of ]
junior men on the Student Council. ,
Two are to be elected from the sopho
more class this year. The position of
secretary of the A. 8. U. O. has but :
one aspirant, Margaret Jackson. (
In addition to the nominations to be j
made from the floor of the student as- |
sembly this morning, several amend- 1
ments to the constitution will be pre- -
sented. Both the Student Council and
the executive council have approved ]
the amendments and they have been (
carefully drawn up in their respective
activities committees. They will be ,
read today and will be voted upon at ,
the time of the student election next
Wednesday.
