JUNIORS TO STAGE TWO-HOUR SHOW Vaudeville Talent of Campus Turns Out for “Varsity Vanities of 1923” “Varsity Vanities of 1923,” which will be staged at the Heilig theater May 3, promises to be the snappiest .junior vau deville that has ever been produced here. It will be a continuous two hour show with absolutely no waits between acts, and will represent the very best talent the campus has to offer, says Tod Baker, chairman of the “Vanities.” Because of the over-crowded house last year, two performances will be given, the first will begin at 7:15 and the second at 9:30. Competition for places on the program has been extremely keen, and so far 36 different acts have been offered for con sideration. “Mummie Mine,” an up-to-the-minute musical comedy will be the feature act. This act was written by Iinogene Letcher, a senior in the school of music, and it is declared by campus critics to be “en tirely new and original.” The leads will be played by Frank Wright and Cather ine Lyons. It is being directed by Miss Letcher, assisted by Darrell Larsen. Try outs for the chorus were held last night and the following 17 girls were chosen: Frances Cornell, Julienne Heffelfenger, Gladys Noren, Kathryn Jane Seel, Marion Hill, Marie Myers, Mildred Marsh, Mar jorie Baird Francis Karshner, Mildred Johnson, Josephine Ulrich, Dorothy Brautmpn, Josephine Johnson, Mary Brant, Helena Pattlecan, Zelma Arra smitli and Joy Johnson. Joe Clark, Patricia Novelan and Dor othy Hall will present a novelty dancing act which they declare to be different than anything that has ever been seen here before. The men’s glee club quartet, consisting of Doc Furry, Roy Bryson, Wilbur Phil lips and Curtis Phillips, are preparing a special act. They will also appear in “Mmnmic Mine.” Cyril Vallentyne and Morris Walters, who so successfully put over their act in the last vaudeville, will present an en tirely new skit of song and chatter. Rehearsals on most of the acts will be well under way by the end of the week according to Tod Baker, who expects the show to go on with professional smooth ness.

C. spring term have entirely been disrupted due to the fact that word' lias been received from the physical education staff at Corvallis that O. A. 1 '• will be unable to work up class teams to compete in these meets. Members of the O. A. C. department claim that improper facilities and ma terial make it impossible to develop teams to enter in intercollegiate meets. This being the case, every effort will be expended to make the interclass meets here a big success, says Miss Cannon, in charge of swimming. These meets will be run off as soon as college opens spring term. According to plans previously arranged, each class will have a first and second team. Girls who will compete in the meets should keep in practice during vacation, said Miss Cannon.

Six Nut Crackers Wanted by Straub If it were not for the fact that fu ture generations of Eugene walnut growers would forever bear a grudge against him, Dean Straub, according to his qwn statement, would like to send east for about six gray squirrels, tame them, and turn them loose on the cam pus. “In that way,” says Dean Straub, “these little animals become very tame. I remember I used to call them to me and they would crawl up on my shoul der to be fed with a nut or a piece of bread. I have often wished for some grey squirrels on this campus. They would soon become very tame and would b j a constant source of amuse ment to some of the dignified seniors that grace the bench in front of the library.. Perhaps,” he added, “the scribes of the campus will feel the im pulse to make some favorable com ment on this movement and my wish may be granted after all.” PAN XENIA INITIATES FOUR Social Hour in Woman’s Building Fol lows; R.
