Salvi Will Give Grand Program
in Methodist Church at
Eight O’Clock
Alberto Salvi, tlie famous Italian
■ harpist, will appear before the stu
dents of the University and Eugene
residents tomorrow evening at 8 o’clock
in the Methodist church auditorium.
According to Roy Bryson, student man
ager of the concert, tickets for the
concert have been in great demand
among down-town people, and expecta
tions are that the auditorium will be
even more crowded to hear the harpist
than it was on the occasion rrf the
last concert, when Paul Althouse, gold
en Metropolitan tenor sang here.
Ilarp music is not as familiar to the
majority of people as is that of the
piano or violin, and hence the demand
for some suggestion of the compositions
which will fill Salvi’s program has been
so insistent since the announcement of
his coming appearance here, that the
harpist’s manager has forwarded to the
University the following selection of
compositions, from which the artist will
choose many of those which will com
pose his Eugene program.
List Is Submitted
“Fantasie Impromptu,” by Chopin,
furnishes a splendid example of the
field of piano literature open to harp
when technical obstacles arc overcome.
It is constructed in rapid pianissimo
design with a contrasting melody which
Mr. Salvi brings out in harmonics. This
melody seems to have been predestined
as the artistic fore-runner of a recent
popular song.
“Norwegian Ballade,” Poenitz, is
a massive and fantastic selection, of
the modern French school of harmonic
construction, which seems to portray
some legend in three divisions: The
first a brilliant, majestic theme, the
second a dreamy cantabile of marked
legato stylo in which the melody stands
siugingly prominent, and the third a
lengthy finale of extremely modern col
or and tremendous technical display. It
ends in almost inconceivable brilliance.
In the “Allegro from C Minor Con
certo,” by Zabel, the allegro is the
main movment and follows the usual
form of first, second and third theme,
florid development and then repetition
of the three themes. Massive chords,
exceedingly rapid forto passages of
changing chromatic color with sudden
ly contrasting pianisssimo effects are
the outstanding features of the composi
tion.
“Spring Song” a Familiar Number
“To Spring,” Greig-Salvi, is a tran
scription of Grieg’s familiar piano num
ber—a- picture of awakening spring.
The transcription does not depart from
the original poetic simplicity of the
composition.
“Spanish Dance,” Tedeski, is a fiery,
lmistreus number in exceedingly rapid
tempo and swaggering rhythm of typ
ical color.
“Italian Serenade,” Salvi, is a spon
taneous and delightful number of old
Italian style. The scene is Naples—
overlooking the harbor. Snatches of a
fisherman's song are heard. Then there
is “The Music Box,” Tedeski, a short
pianissimo imitation of an old-fashion
ed music box, i
“Tarnntelle,” Aptommns Salvo, a tre
mendously brilliant number containing
abnormal technical demands, has its
main theme in presto tempo and is in
torspersed with cadenzas of surprising
brilliance.
Barcarole is ropuiar in uni our
In bis arrangement ol’ a popular clas
sic, ‘‘Barcarole,” from Tales of Hoff
nian, Mr. Salvi lias added consitlorablo,
technically, to bring out the dreamy
spirit of the composition.
One of the outstanding pieces of the
Old English school of harp literature,
“Eantasie Brilliant,” by Alvas, a som
ber, somewhat emotional and very melo
dic theme used in many variations.
"Dance des Sylphs,” Posse, is an im
aginative portrayal of fairy wood
nymphs dancing the minuet. “ Valse do
Concert,” Salvi, a brilliant concert
wait/ of irresistible rhythm is com
prised of four themes developed in free
style. An unusual feature is the third
theme built on a sustained tremolo—
an effect original with Mr. Salvi.
“Humoresque" Well Rendered
“Humoresque,” Dvorak-Salvi, an ar
rangement of a much overworked and
ill treated number, seems to find anew
the idea of the composer and obliterate
memories of unpleasant interpretations.
"Scherzo,” a brilliant composition by
Mr. Salvi himself, is full of rippling
melodies and replete with sensational
runs.
BUYING METHODS STUDIED
Advertising Class Conducts Investiga
tion of Local Stores
To ascertain the discrimination of
the buying public of Eugene, tin* mem
bers of Prof. IV. E. G. Thacher's ad
veising class were detailed to the
various grocery and drug stores of the
citv, there to observe the manner in
which the customers asked for merchan
dise.
The amateur research workers first
became acquainted with the proprietors
or clerks of the establishment, then,
notebook in hand, they stayed for an
hour, noting the following of each cus
tomer:
1. Type of customer. (Whether man,
woman or child. Of high or low type/
quality of clothes, etc.)
2. What the customer ordered.
3. What the customer got.
4. Whether customer asked for any es
lycial brand of goods, indicated the
Brand by the color or illustration on
the package, or whether he depended
upon the honesty of salesman to give
him a satisfactory article.
5. If the customer indicated the desired
brand, would lie accept a substitute.
G. If he did not indicate choice, did
salesman offer an established brand,
or did he endeavor to sell unidenti
fied goods.
The results indicated that, while
many people are careless in the choice
of merchandise, the greater number fav
or an advertised and well known pro
duct. In every case, the merchant
stated himself partial to the established
brands because of the rapidity of turn
over and the ease with which sales
can be made.
Note was taken of all University stu
dents who entered the stores, and it
was obvious that the students are more
discriminating in the type of merchan
dise they buy.
The results of this experiment, along
with those of other similar experiments
to be carried out in the future, will
be classified and used by Professor
Thaeher for a magazine article. '
OREGON ESSAY CONTEST
TO BE HELD THIS MONTH
High Schools from Over State Will
Participate; Salem Is Last
Year’s Cup-Winner

A cup is offered, the winner of which
is required to have won the contest for
three successive years in order to keep
it as a permanent trophy. Salem defin
itely won the cup last year and in con
sequence the English council has appro
priated twenty dollars with which to
purchase a suitable cup to take the
place of that known as the John C.
Almack cup, which was won last year.
The rules for tho contest are as fol
lows:
Subject: A Pioneer Story (local his
tory) .

from books or published records, ex
cept, to establish dates or essential
facts; but from personal accounts of
pioneers, family traditions, letters,
unpublished records and newspapers.
Length: Not to exceed 4,000 words,
preferably, under .'5,000 words.
Final date of receipt by secretary:
Manuscripts should be postmarked
not later than April lfi.
Identification: In order to insure im
partial judging of the manuscripts,
these should not: bear the name of the
writer or of his high school. Send
the manuscript, free of all identifi
cation marks, but attach an envelope,
sealed, containing the name of the wri
ter of the essay and the high school
that ho attends.
Miss Ida V. Turney of tho English
department, is president of the Oregon
Council of English, which has charge of
the contest. She has selected Miss
Julia Burgess of the University of Ore
gon and Miss Edna Mingus if Mon
mouth to act as judges.
It has been suggested by the council
that in order to reach a larger number
of students, each high school should
hold a local contest, selecting therefrom
the highest or the highest and second
highest essavs to enter in the state con
test.

MAE MURRAY AT CASTLE
“Beauty is health—and health is
beauty.” says Mae Murray. “What ben
efits the one is beneficial to the other,
for the two are to my mind so closely
connected that it is impossible to deal
with one without considering the other.
“Therefore, when 1 mention dancing
as my first aid to beauty, I mean it is
also my tirst aid to health. Dancing
has always been an all-round solace to
me. It has given me the most complete
mental and physical relaxation. There
is the mental joy of creation—devising
new steps, expressing new emotions, liv
iug other people’s lives,”
Miss Murray is at present appearing
at the Castle theater in “Jazzmauia,”
her latest picture.

SCHOOL OF CHEMICAL ENGINEERING PRACTICE
A graduate school offering a course of study leading to the degree of
Master of Science, v?ith f eld stations established at six different companies
located in Bangor, Maine; Boston, Mass.; and Buffalo, M. Y. These
companies produce sulphite and soda pulp, paper, caustic soda, chlorine,
heavy acids end salts, sugar, coke, gas, steel, ammonia, benzol, etc.
The more important operations of Chemical Engineering, as jypified by
the abo^e processes, are studied systematically by means of tests and experi
mental vOork on full scale plant apparatus. One of the objects of this work
is to fix in the mind of the student the principles of Chemical Engineer
ing and to corn?b *-=' these principles with practice.
This vJork is .on-remunerative and is independent of control by the
plant management, and therefore the . whole attention of the student is
directed to the study of Chemical Engineering.
The total number admitted to the school is limited and the students,
studying and experimenting in small groups, receive individual instruction.
Before admission to the School of Chemical Engineering Practice, all
students must have adequate preparation in chemistry and engineering.
The abie student can complete the requirements for the Master of Science
degree in one and one-half years.
At the present time, thirty-one colleges and universities are represented
among the men attending the School of Chemical Engineering Practice and
these men comprise over one-half the enrollment.
