Mother goose panels and pictur
esque pirates are the latest extremes
in social atmosphere, as two of the
interesting affairs of next week
end will disclose. The decorations
for the vacation events displayed
oriental effects and the more
familiar house colors, all charm
ingly carried out.
» • • •
The freshmen of Kappa Alpha
Theta will entertain the sophomores
with a pirate dance next Friday
evening, February 29. The affair
will be quite exciting with pirate
clothes and decorations; probably
even a death’s head or two. There
will be about 20 girls present.
Miss Kathleen Murchison, na
tional Alpha Xi Delta visitor, was
the inspiration for a charmingly
appointed formal luncheon given by
that sorority at College Side Inn
last Tuesday noon. Blue and gold,
the house eolors, were shown in
the centerpiece. Dean Virginia Judy
Esterly, the Alpha Xi Delta,
Eugene mothers and the patronesses
were guests, covers being placed
for 22.
Jr ussy-willows and early spring
flowers will give a pretty note to
the matinee dance, which the fresh
men of Alpha Chi Omega will hold
for the juniors and sophomores on
the afternoon of March 1.
Sigma Chi underclassmen will
give an informal dance at the house
next Saturday evening, while the
upperclassmen will hold a picnic the
afternoon and evening of the same
day.
College Side Inn will be the
scene of the formal dinner-dance
to be given by Sigma Nu Saturday
evening, March 1. Dinner will
proceed, grill style, until about 10
o’clock, when the customary dance
will take place. Black, white and
gold decorations will be used. War
ren Clark is to give a musical fea
ture. A great number of invita
tions have been extended, 10 out
of-town guests being expected and
50 couples.
The Orient will be the key-note
of the decorations for the formal
dance, which Delta Zeta will give
next Friday night, February 29, at
the house. Wisteria, hangings, rugs
and incense will carry out the ef
fect, while an oriental feature
dance will lend color to the occa
sion. Patrons and patronesses of the
evening are to be: Pres, and Mrs.
P. L. Campbell, Mrs. Virginia Judy
Esterly, Mr. and Mrs. Roland Mil
ler, Madame Rose McGrew, Mr. and
Mrs. D. C. Baker, Mrs. Grace Rus
sell and Mrs. H. C. Wortman, of
Portland.

The To-Ko-Lo formal dance of
last Thursday evening was held at
College Side Inn, in a medieval at
mosphere, which enlarged upon the
general appearance of the dancing
room. At this dance the “Four
Horsemen,” a new campus orches
tra, made its first appearance.
• * •
Beta Theta Pi house was beauti
fully decorated with palms and
flowers for the formal dance Satur
day night. A large number of
guests were present.
Great numbers of black and
white streamers, black wall panels,
on which were pictured gold moons,
and gilded small trees formed
novel decorations for the Kappa
Delta Phi dance, held Saturday eve
ning at the Woman’s building. A
large cluster of the streamers hung
from the center of the ceiling, sub
duing the lights cleverly. Mr. and
Mrs. Sid Woodhouse gave a feature
dance. About 45 couples were
present.
The Phi Kappa Psi breakfast
dance of last Friday morning was
a very enjoyable occasion. It was
given at the Woman's building,
Washington's birthday being re
membered in the decorations. The
affair took place from 8:30 to
12 o’clock, 40 couples attending.
• •
The Anchorage, decorated with
spring flowers and pussy willows,
will be the scene of the Hermian
club formal dance to be held the
night of March 1. Dean and Mrs.
John Bovard, Miss Florence Alden
and Miss Emma Waterman are to
be natrons and patronesses.
* * *
A distinctly different setting
formed the background for the
Delta Tau Delta formal dance,
given at the fraternity house last
Friday evening. The rooms were
transformed into a cleverly ar
ranged cabaret, one part of which
was draped with oriental rugs and
hangings. The feature was a com
plete entertainment presented on a
stage erected at one end of the
room. Blue lights played on the
purple curtains and draperies,
showing to wonderful advantage
a group of distant byzantime towers.
Frank Jue gave a solo, “Kashi
mura.” Mr. and. Mrs. Carlton
Spencer, Mr.^and Mrs. A. H. Schroff,
and Mrs. Virginia Judy Esterly
were patrons and patronesses of the
evening.
Eighteen couples attended an in
formal dance held last Thursday
evening by Alpha Delta Pi.
Mis. Burton Beck will be infor
mally entertained next weekend
by Pi Beta Phi.
Red balloons gave the impression
of huge cherries, while red lights
and carnations completed the color
scheme, at the semi-formal dance,
jjiven by Thatcher cottage last Sat
urday evening. Programs were in
the shape of hatchets. Irene Buck
ley, dressed as a ragged boy, gave
a clog dance. Patrons and patron
esses of the evening were: Mrs.
Inez Miller, Mr. Theodore Wal
strum, Mrs. Virginia Judy Esterly,
Mr. and Mrs. Roland Miller, and
Dean H. Walker. Invitations were
extended to 17 couples.
Oregon Knights will hold an in
formal dance Saturday night,
March I.
PRESIDENT OF WESLEY
IS VISITOR ON CAMPUS
Equalization in Religious
Training Explained
A visitor on the campus Monday
was Dr. E. P. Robertson, president
of Wesley college, Grand Porks,
North Dakota. Dr. Robertson
came to Eugene Sunday on his way
East after a business trip in Cali
fornia.
“Wesley college,” he said, “is
conducted under the auspices of the
Methodist church. In 1905, it was
moved to a site immediately ad
jacent to the university campus,
upon the invitation of the state
university authorities. According to
this working arrangement, courses
in religion in Wesley college are
listed as university electives. They
are accepted by the university as
equivalent to a similar number of
hours taken by students in the uni
versity proper for degrees. A maxi
mum of 32 hours in religion can be
taken for, credit for a degree.
“This equalizes,” Dr. Robertson
continued, “the academic oppor
tunity open to future ministers or
students aiming at religion for their
life ’s vocation and the training for
civic vocations. We all appreciate
the university as the accepted in
stitution for higher learning in the
commonwealth.”
Dr. Robertson preached in the
Methodist church Sunday. He was
a guest of the Kiwanis club yes
terday at lhnch. He left last night
for Portland and Seattle.

O--—
CASTLE
Score still another triumph for
Reginald Barker! Last night a large
audience sat entranced at the Castle
theater and watched the unfolding
of “Pleasure Mad,” the most recent
picture filmed by the man who has
directed such masterpieces of screen
art as “The Eternal Struggle,”
[“Hearts Aflame,” “The Storm,” and
“The Old Nest.”
The new production brings him
back to his favorite field of domestic
drama and is certain to add new
i lustre to his name. “Pleasure Mad”
tells a deeply moving story of the
: danger that lies in the sudden ac
quisition of wealth by a poor, but
previously contented family.
Man- Alden, cast in the role of
mother, as she was in “The Old
iNest,” gave a truly superb perfor
mance. “Pleasure Mad” plav^ again
today and Wednesday.
REX
A deluxe prologue is to precede
the Rex presentation of Zane Grey’s
“The Heritage of the Desert,” now
playing at that theater. The Amer
. ican Indian’s part in the story has
been utilized prominently for an in
troductory specialty and with a stage
setting depicting the Arizona can
i yons and purple foothills that hem
in the great desert, the presentation
promises to be visually elaborate.
Attired as Meseal, a “Flower of the
Desert” maiden, Johanna James will
be heard in a melodious rendition of
“Sioux Serenade” with a flute obli
gato and accompanied on the Rex
organ by Rosner. The musical sett
ing which Rosner will present in ac
companiment to the picture will con
tain many well known American melo
dies and quite a number of Indian
. selections.
OREGON CLUB VIGTOR 1
IN HANDBALL CONTEST
Phi Psi Squad Defeated;
Phi Delts Win Game
By reason of its victory yesterday [
afternoon over the Phi Kappa Psi
handball squad, the Oregon club is:
now resting on the top rung of the [
team standings. Having developed a!
speedy but steady style of play, the
Oregon cjpb, composed of Taylor and |
Clayson, found little difficulty in j
running up a substantial score against
the Phi Psi team of Cook and Hunt, j
The final count was 21-12, 21-11.
The Phi Kappa Psi aggregation had
run through rather a stiff schedule
without a single defeat, and had
been doped to give the Oregon club
some dangerous opposition. At the
present time, the pennant race in
cludes three real contenders in the
Oregon club, Sigma Alpha Epsilon
and Friendly hall squads. These
teams are the only undefeated squads
in the league and are so well matched,
that none of the aggregations can
claim an edge on the other.
In the lower division, the Phi Delta
Theta handball combination was vic
torious over the Kappa Sigma squad
after playing three fast sets. The
score was 21-12, 20-22, 21-5. One of
the main factors in the Phi Delt win,
was the clever and steady team work
of Powers and Staley. Bliss and
Brown played a good game for the
Kappa Sigs.
The following standings of the
teams is a fair indicator of the way
that the teams may stack up at the
close of the tournament.

Ofbgon club . 2 0
