    MUSIC FEST1L
HOT TO BE CM
Busy Spring Term Makes Event
Impossible According To
Dean Landsbury
Dl\ John J. Landsbury, dean of the
school of music, has announced that it has
been necessary to give up the spring music
festival because of the difficulty in get
ting people to assist who were not tied
up with other activities. “This spring
term is so crowded with things,” Dr.
Landsbury said, “and it was necessary
for us to depend so much upon people
engaged in other activities that we de
cided to give it up rather than to try to
work it out on such short notice.
“Both Glee clubs were to have been
used as the nucleus of Haydn’s oratorio,
“The Creation,” and we discovered that
the greater burden of the work was fall
ing upon them.” It was originally in
tended to have “The Creation” as the
main part of the festival; this was to
have been sung by a chorus made up of
the glee clubs and other people in the
University who are interested in music,
accompanied by the University Symphony
Orchestra. The oratorio was to have
been directed by Rex Underwoo'd, instruc
tor in violin in the school of music. If
was also planned to ask artists from
Portland to take part in some of the pro
grams.
Dr. Landsbury is to organize an or
atorio society at the beginning of next
year, so that there will be no conflicts,
and work can be accomplished without
rushing. This society will include the
Men’s and Women’s glee clubs, and all
available persons on the campus, who
are not in the clubs.

“HIS MASTER’S VOICE”
AIDS TYPING RECORDS
U. H. S. Students Make Speed Under
' Spell of Artists Old and New In
The Realm of Music
The use of the Victrola for the per
fection of rhythm in typing has been
used with great success in the Univer
sity high school. It has been found
that by perfecting their rhythm, the
students are able to attain a greater
rate of speed and accuracy.
The records of some of the students
are remarkable; the first year classes
expect to average 60 words a minute
before the end of the year. Vuelta
Stivers and Yesta Orrick of the first
year class are already making more
than 60 words. However, speed alone
is not stressed for these girls are able
to take a 20 or 30-minute test making
no more than five mistakes and often
none.
The second year students are making
between 90 and 100 words in 15 or 20
minute tests. In the shorter tests four
members of the class have made over
100 words a minute, and one girl, Mary
Butler, has, reached a record of 150
words.
Most of the students are working
for awards. Many have already re
ceived the preliminary awards from the
Royal company and are now working
for the highest award, the typewriter.
All of the high school stenographic
work and much of the work for the
school of education is done by the stu
dents. In this way they learn practical
office work, and at the same time are
of groat assistance to the school.

for?” was another. When told that it
was for signals, he said—“Well, but
what would you do if the enemy were
near?” The genial humor of the in
spectors made the men feel that even
the vicissitudes of the Oregon climate
have t heir compensations and can be
endured with fortitude.
Faculty, students, and a number of
townspeople who witnessed the work
thought in spite of the rain the men
made a good showing.

The men were particularly struck
by the clothing of the soldiery in the

NEW BOOKS AT LIBRARY
HAVE VARIED INTERESTS
Evangelical Work By Oregon
Graduate Is Listed
Alluring titles, covers designed to bid
the reader peep within them, contents
written to amuse, entertain or instruct,
in fact written for every mood, and on
varying subjects appealing to individual
tastes are advertised on the new book
bulletin board in the University library.
Fresh from the 1922 press come Don
Marquis’ latest books; one is “Sonnets to
a Red-Headed Lady and Famous Love Af
fairs.” The other entitled, “Poems and
Portraits,” is a collection of cleverly
written lines by a man whom some crit
ics hail as one of the greatest of
American minstrels, and whose column
the “Tower” appears in the New York
Tribune. In the “Sonnets” Marquis re
views the fates of his imagined 29 red
haired wives to a new flame, Suzanne, in
a humorous satrieal style, thoroughly en
ijoyable, and uproariously funny, and
makes amends for the slams and bat
tering of the first pages in a few lines
of real poetic merit at the end of the
work. In the “Famous Love Affairs”
a modern view point of the affairs of
Antony and Cleopatra, Tristam and
Isenlt, Othello and Desdemona, Romeo
and Juliet, are given. Quoting from
Othello and Desdemona the clmax reads:
“And so one night he killed his wife
Then learned he’d been mistaken
‘Well, well,’ he murmured, ‘such is life! ’
It left him rather shaken.”
“Poems and Portraits”devotes half its
space to poems on such subjects as the
“Wood-fire,” “Towers of Manhattan,”
“Only Thy Dust,” and half to “Savage
Portraits,” a series of satrieal sketches
of personalities.
Post’s “Etiquette” is the latest word
in the library on social propriety, making
its arrival at a psychological moment in
view of the annual “brushing up” going
on for Junior Week-end.
“Last Poems,” by A. E. Houseman,
“Dreams Out of Darkness,” by Unter
meyer, and “Nets to Catch the Wind,”
by Elinor Wylie, have been added to the
poetry collection of the library.
Among the novels are Machen’s “Hill
of Dreams,” and “Peter Whiffle,” by
Carl Van Vechten.
Two new plays are Masefield's “Mel
loney Hotspur,” and Fleekon’s “Has
son.”
“New Testament Evangelism” is the
subject of a work by Dr. Jesse E. Kel
loms, an Oregon graduate now engaged
; in evangelistic work. The work is de
J signed for the benefit of the evangelist.
It develops methods of conducting revival
and evangelical meetings, going into a
more or less detailed description. The
lectures embodied in the work are a series'
which the author delivered in Eugene be
fore the students and faculty of the
Eugene Bible University. The book is
in the Oregon collection of the Univer
sity library.
DEPARTMENT KEEPS FILES
Dr. Torrey Registers Photographs anc
Records of Each Student
For the past two years, the zoolwgv
department has kept on file identifi
cation cards of all students registered
in that department. A complete ree
ord and photograph of each student is
placed on his card. „
The purpose of this system is tc
enable Dr. Harry Beal Torrey, the head
of the department, to keep in close con
tact with the students. Because he is
in Portland part of each week he does
not have an opportunity to become as
well acquainted with them as do the
assistants in the laboratory and he uses
this means to keep in touch with them
and with their work.
DEAN ALLEN GOES TO BEND
Dean Eric W. Allen, of the school of
journalism, is going to Bend Sunday
to be gone several days on Extension
work connected with the department.
