WOMEN'S GLEE RECEIVED WARMLY ON SPRING HIP Concerts In Southern Oregon Towns Provo Successful Tlie women’s glee club, directed by George Pavnter Hopkins of the school of music, added materially to its laurels on its annual trip made during spring vacation to southern Oregon towns. The club traveled in one of the large Grey hound buses. The first concert of the club was given at Hoseburg, before an audience that was disconcertingly small. At Medford the audience was larger, and from there until the end of the trip, the club played before fui; houses. Hr. John Bovard, of the physical education department, and Professor Alfred Sehroff, of the school of architecture and the allied arts, were in Medford at the same time and collaborated with the "glee club in their pre-concert stunt, which was given in the various high schools. Ashland was next on the schedule, fol lowed by an appearance in Grants Pass. Here Bobby Peck, a six-year old pianist, dressed in a tiny tuxedo, gave two num bers of the program. In Glendale the club received a royal welcome, and a special chicken dinner, with all the ac coutrements was given for them. A concert at Cottage Grove completed the trip. • ' The program the club gave at all the concerts was the same as that given at the home concert, with the exception of Debussy’s “Blessed Dainozel.” In place of this a group of five Indian songs, with the girls in costume, was sung, and a stunt called Amateur Night was given. Muriel Meyers, Ruth Akers, Mildred Browm and Maxine Buren featured in this. A midget stunt given by Eloise McPherson, Gwaklys Keeney, Florence Garrett and Dorothy Poill, assisted by Kathleen Kem, Alice Baker and Alberta Carson, completed the program. This stunt was gotten up by Florence Garrett. Bernice Altstock, contralto, was one of the soloists, of the programs, singing “Because,” d’Ardelot. Virginia Owens, accompanist of the club, and a pupil of John Stark Evans, gave two numbers, “On Wings of Song,” Mendelssohn-Liszt and “Juba Dance,” Dett. As encore, Miss Owens gave Percy Grainger’s “Country Gardens.” Gwaldys Keeney soprano, and Yera Price, contralto, sang two duets, “Sacrament,” McDermid, “By the Waters of Minnetonka,” Lieuranee, which were exceptionally well received. Mr. Hopkins, director of the club, commended the girls for the manner in which all the concerts were given, and belives that each one fully realized the honor of being allowed to represent the "University. Ted Gillenwaters, manager of the club, proved efficient and tireless in his efforts to make the trip a success, Mr. Hopkins said. Mrs. George Paynter Hopkins was chaperone of the club. ANNUALAPRIL FROLIC SPECTACULAR EVENT (Continued from page one) the curtain raiser to the main event, it was full of speed and pep, with never an idle moment. The big numbers on the program were the boxing events, with Charlie Dawson and Carl Miller in the headline event. The boys put on a clever exhibition of the manly art. Two boxers from San Fran cisco, on their way to Portland, put on an exhibition bout and although the fans didn’t appreciate it, gave a good exhibiton of in-fighting. The other bouts on the card were fast with plenty of punching to keep the crowd on edge. Culbertson and Davis, Short and Wiswall, and two midget Eu gene lads made up the rest of the boxing program. Ray Garret and Earl Baird wrestled three fast two minute rounds. Siefert Entertains With Songs John B. Siefert, of the school of music, sang a number of old Irish songs and won the crowd by his excellent voice. The ‘ men's quartet entertained with the old ! time melodies. ThedVIidnite Sons also had a special place on the program in addition to playing between the other acts. The Eugene Filipino club of stringed instru ments gave several native seletions which ] were well received. Julius Caesar had a deal of trouble j getting out the morning edition of the ! Daily Roman Nose, if the little skit Doug Farrell and his Delta Tau’s is to be considered. It was especially notice able that Caesar had a mean hunt and peek system when it came to pounding; out copy. Of course Cleopatra had to Marshall Neilarfs The Banquet Famous Stars rOSNER, The OTnsic Master in Settings on >Our Organ Tomorrow—1 ‘ GIMME ’ ’ LAST TIMES enter the scene and throw a monkey wrench into the press. The Fiji's and the Phi Sigma Pi’s en tertained with dancing acts of pleasing nature. Following the main event, the gang stampeded for the lunch counter where the Oregon knights were dishing out coffee and hot-dgs. well-sOpsoued with mustard. The seating arrangement was so that everyone could see the ring and the stage without trouble. The rapid fire order of events enabled the crowd to be out of the building and on the .way home long before 11 o’clock.

BUILDINGS NOW IN USE WILL SOON BE FINISHED Classes Are Held in New Journalism and Art Structures While Work men Complete Details The two new structures on the cam pus, the journalism and art buildings, ate nearly finished. The new “shack” has been in use since the newspaper conference, but the workmen are not entirely through. The art building is being used for classes, but some of the stuccoing and tli'e decorative features are not done. The journalism building is divided into rooms by temporary partitions. The school occupies the first floor and halt of the second. The other half, and the third floor is being used at the present for chemistry laboratories. When this department moves into the proposed Science building the journalism school will use the whole structure. The Unit versity press will be on the first floor.. At present workmen are going over the outside walls of the building with a solution to preserve the color of the GIMME—a Match! Williams’ VII —the softest course in college WILLIAMS’ VII is a course for ^very man in the institution. It’s seven times a week but the ses sions are short—less than five minutes each. And best of all, no man who elects Williams’ ever fails—to get a better shave than he ever got before. The first thing you learn in shaving with Williams’ is of the remarkably beneficial effect it has on your skin. You can’t fail to be impressed—even after the closest examination—with the fact that here, at last, is a shav ing cream which really does your face good. Then, especially if you’re of a practical, business like turn of mind, you II be pleased with the efficiency of Williams’. It softens the beard in so much less time. It does everything a shaving cream is supposed to do. Get a tube of Williams’ today. Use it for two months. See then if you ever could go back to any other shaving cream. Notice the hinged cap. You can't lose it’-and the tube hangs upl Williams' Shaving Cream bricks. The freshman chemistry lab moved yesterday from the basement of McClure hall into the structure. The obi lab -will be used for chemistry re search work. Most of the work to’be done about the art building is on the court between it and the heating plant. One feature of the patio is the rustic walls that are being constructed. Concrete is beyig I laid in irregular blocks, in imitation of the old-faslioned stone pathways. The roof of the fireproof art museum is not yet completed, bio wood or com bustible material is being used in the construction. The steel framework for the skylight that is to be tbe only window in the museum was raised and put in place yesterday..

BECK COMPLETES SWISS KOLKLORE OPERAi t (Continued from pago one.) a production for children, was given suc cessfully last year. The success of the latter is the real reason Mrs. Beck has written another, for its simplicity of setting and absence of distinct choruses aroused interest on the part of the Dun bar Opera company, and this company suggested that she write a production for adults, wroking along the same lines of simplicity as in the children’s opera. . Mrs. Beck’s first opera, “The King of the Castle, is now in the hands of Silver-Burdette publishing company.
