Mother? of University students, both
from out-of-town and cf Eugene, were
the inspiration for much entertaining
during the week-end. The occasion was
Mothers' Week-end, an annual Univer
sity event complimenting the mothers
and social functions in their honor were
numeri iis. Today an a.M'cipated affair
is the Vespers at the Methodist church
with the University choir and prominent
speakers participating.
A feature of the week-end and a de
lightful affair was the tea given for the
mothers in the Alumni hall of the
Womna’s building, Saturday afternoon.
The tea differed from the usual kind in
that a large number of men were pres
ent including the Oregon Kinghts who
ushered. The Eugene mothers comprised
the receiving line. During the tea hours
which were from three to five a musical
program of piano, violin, vocal solos and
duets was given by the advanced stu
dents of the school of music. The af
fair was attended by a large number of
mothers and their student sons and
daughters. Women’3 League had charge
of the function.
A c»ance drama, the first production of
its kind to be given on the Oregon cam
pus, was an event of Thursday and Sat
urday evenings in Guild hall. The drama
was staged by 28 dancers, members of the
advanced class in educational interpre
tive dancing, which has been introduced
here by Miss Lillian Stupp of the fac
ulty of the department of physical edu
cation. The affair was characterized
by its beauty, grace and artistic expres
sion, and deserves much commendation.

A complete surprise came to the mem
bersof Kappa Alpha Theta and Beta
Theta Pi Friday evening when Asteria
Norton, a junior on the campus, an
nounced her engagement to Align Smith
of Portland. Miss Norton is prominent
in campus dramatics and is a member
of Mask and Buskin. Mr. Smith did not
return to the campus this year, but is
engaged in the lumber business near
Portland.
The engagement was announced to
Miss Norton’s sorority sisters at dinner
where cards bearing the crests of both
fraternities gave the first hint of the
news. Miss Norton’s home is at Law

the custom begun last year, held a cele
bration Thursday evening, marking the

and Freda Goodrich, editor-elect; two
editors of the Emerald, Kenneth Youel

ed to that position; Mr. and Mrs. Jack
Benefiel and Dean Eric W. Allen.
The feature of the occasion was a large
cake, an exact replica of the new Ure

top representing the cover with its Ore
gon seal. Linotype slugs carrying the
names of the guests present were cleverly!
.used as the place cards. The members
of the staff enjoyed Paul Joneses, Vir

That will be some year. “A Hot
