COM ING PLAY OF
UNUSUAL NATURE
Mrs. John Leader to Take
Role in Production
SETTINGS ARE EFFECTIVE
“Peter Ibbetson” is Drama
of Subtle Tragedy
Mrs. John Leader, who played
Alice in “ Aliee-Sit-By-The-Fire,”
and also took a part in “The Scar
let Pimpernel,” last year, wili play
one of the leads in the forthcoming
Guild hall production, the role of
the D,uehess of Towers in Du
Maurier’s “Peter Ibbetsen.V
Fergus Eeddie, who is directing
the play, will interpret the difficult
title role, and a very large cast of
both junior and senior company
members will support the leads.
Lighting Good
An immense amount of work is
being done on the costuming, the
scenery and the lighting effects
which will play a great part in the
atmospheric effect of the play
which deals not in melodrama, but
in the subtle tragedy that is the
result of the clash between a super
sensitized dreamer and the coarser
» grained man of the world.
“Peter Ibbetson” has not a so
called happy ending. It is a true
characterization of an unusual type.
The hero, as a small child with lit
tle Mimsey, the devoted companion
of his chillhood, furnishes a study
for child psychologists. The two
play constantly with their dream
companions — the Prince Charming
and the Fairy Tarapatapoun.
Seats Usual Price
Juanita Jackson will give several
dances during the play, with Dave
Swanson. Miss Jackson, who gave
a recital recently, is trained in the
Denishawn school.
The play will be produced three
nights, Thursday, Friday and Sat
urday, and seats will be fifty and
seventy-five cents, as usual.

and “Wiegenlied,” with an absorb
ing appreciation for the dramatic
content with much flexibility of
voice and a pleasant and always sub
stantial tonal quality.
In a style peculiarly her own,
she gave a group of German songs
and won from her hearers generous
applause. A group of songs by
French composers, especially “Notre
Amour,” by Gabriel Faure, and “Le
Beau Reve,” by A. Flegier, con
" tained examples of coloratura em
bellishment, which Miss Case gave
with assurance and much ease.
Mozart’s “Alleluja” showed the wide
range of tones at her disposal as
well as skill in using them.
The singer showed expressive
capacity and admirable tonal ex
pression in “Dawn,” by Pearl Cur
ran, which greatly delighted the
audience.
She was very generous with her
encores, two of her numbers includ
ing “Robin, Robin, Sing Me a Song”
and “Will O’ the Wisp,” composi
I
I tion3 by her accompanist, Charles
Gilbert Spross.
At no time during the eoncerl
was there an unsteadiness in hei
voice which might have imperile'
the intonation. She is delightful tc
hear because she brings artistic in
t.eligenee to all her work, and she
sings with the strong sense of the
individual style.

Club Starts Strong
The Oregon club started the sea
son with a strong, fast playing
team, but was hard hit by injuries,
which carried it down into seventh
place and the chances are that it
will remain there unless the Fiji
game is turned into victory.
Delta Tau Delta has had hard
luck in the season’s contests. Sev
eral of the players were lost to
the team due to illness, which in
turn forced the organization to
forfeit some of their contests. They
now hold the undisputed possession.
The Phi Delts annexed another
victory in league “A” yesterday
afternoon by defeating the Oregon
club in a very fast and well played
contest, 19 to 14. Both teams
played well and worked the ball
down fast by clever passes and
brilliant dribbling, converting the
baskets by accurate shooting. The
two teams were fairly evenly
matched and put up a pretty battle.
1UV& 19 Xllgu IVXctil
The Phi Delta put on an extra
burst of speed, however, toward the
close of the game and chalked up
enough counters to win. Tuck made
10 of the winner’s points, while
Gerke mad- 6. Morelock and
Westerman played the best ball for
the losers.
The final games, which wind up
the series Monday are:
Sigma Chi vs. Phi Delta Theta,
at 4 p.m.
Beta Theta Pi vs. Friendly Hall,
at 7 p.m.
Phi Gamma Delta vs. Oregon
Club, at 8 p.m.

that the tryouts be cleared out of

away in world problems, like two

Again will I be foiled in a

the fair fame of Margeruites like

i come a vision of the stern and un

Lord Lochinvar with plumed hat

on her and carry her off in front
of him on his coal black charger—
her ideal mate in a sort of human
door mat with “welcome” written
on it.
Now, no girl of any spirit, least
of all, an American girl, really
wants a human football for a mate.
It would make her sluggish and
fat and lose all her pep, and I
would b^1 the ideal mate for the co
ed of my dreams. I would carry
the fight to her from the stroke of
the gong—I mean from the end of
the marriage service, and I would

I slug toe to toe with her until death
did us part.
I ean see her and mo sitting
lovingly on either side of our
hearth, thinking of mean things to
say to one another, and as years
rolled on, and silver threads began
to show in her crowning glory, long
practice would enable her to swing
an even meaner rolling pin, and
to the end of our lives wo would
carry the old Oregon Fight to one
another.
But, heigh-ho, the dream has
lasted too long, and the northern
mists are chilly things to,. dream

Pawn” isn’t the only bitter
hour in one’s life, and my sword
arm hasn’t the same lithe swing it

for a few months and—Good Luck,
