HIDE HUT TO BE SEEN SOM Fifteen Works of John F. Carlson Expected WINTER CHARMS SHOWN Exhibition Open to Public in Arts Building Fifteen characteristic landscapes by John ;F. Carlson, New York! landscape painter, are soon to be shown in the small gallery in the arts building. The exhibition was shown in the Portland Museum of Art Fifth and Taylor streets, from March 9 to March 31, and is daily expected to arrive on the campus. Interpretation of thei beauty of snow scenes is the espe cial forte of Mr. Carlson, who sees in such landscape all the> vibrations of color. Each square inch of his water colors is interesting as a piece of color. Themes Are Varied Living as hei does in Woodstock, New York, Mr. Carlson knows the .peculiar charm of ice-bound nature, the rigor of eastern winters. In the winter mood there will be “Win ter Hickories,” “Winter Willows,” with tree subjects; “Icebound River,” with a charm of its own, and “Winter’s Wanei” Desolation is depicted in “Bleak Meadow's” and “Bleak Pastures.” In “Snows of Early Spring,” the irridescence of snowy landscape will be apparent, though the season is changing gradually to the awaken ing of spring. A little more threat ening is “Stormy Twilight.” “Sha dowy Pool,” “The First Beam,” ““Spring Morning,” “Mountain Hamlet,” “Fallon Acres,” and “Deserted Garden,” are themes that intrigue and lend a certain variety to the exhibit. Works Arouse Interest The paintings have* aroused much interest in Portland among art lovers, who only regretted that more pictures had not been sent. For thei most part, they are small water-colors—there is only one large one, in fact—but they are very perfect of tliedr sort. The showing of thei Carlson paint ings is part of a program begun this year by Ellis F. Lawrence, dean of the school of architecture and allied arts, to give the students a chance to study masterpieces of art at close hand, and to stimulate an appreciation of the beautiful. The gallery is open to the gen eral public as well as to the faculty and students during these exhibi tions. Kecently, an exhibition was held there of the paintings of Emil Jacques, Belgian painter now resid ing in Portland. Others are to fol low. Dean Lawrence is keeping in close touch with the eastern art centers and fine exhibitions will be brought here as the funds for the purpose permit.

Meyer and Bice, varsity tennis lettermen, are back and the var sity chances are not entirely gloomy. A five-man team will represent the University. Some of the men have been going out for preliminary prac tice and it will not require much training to get them into shape. A strong schedule has been ar ranged for the varsity. The Pacific Coast conference meet will be held at Eugene on May 31. The first dual meet so far scheduled is with O. A. C. at Eugene on May 3. On May 10, the team will journey to Salem, where a meet will be held with the Willamette university squad. A return meet with 0. A. C. will be held May 17 at Corvallis. A meet will probably be arranged with Beed college at Portland. The chances of a strong frosh tennis team are very bright. There are several former prep stars who expect to turn out for berths on the team. Westerman, Okerberg and Mead have been showing class in their early practices. Westerman formerly held the junior northwest championship, while Mead and Oker berg are said to be strong players. There are several other first year men who are going strong.

Janitor, Resigning, Affirms Belief in Students Morthland Says . Attitude More Serious This Year Than Last “It is my opinion that the stu- ! dents of the University realize their responsibility to the state and are taking their education seriously,” j says W. L. Morthland, janitor of j Villard hall for the past two years, who yesterday resigned his posi tion. Mr. Morthland bases his opinion on the fact that he notices a decidedly more stu dious attitude this year than last among the majority of the student body. “Last year I was constantly sweeping up torn paper and the scraps of book leaves which were thrown on the floor. This year, I almost never find it. In fact, the floor is almost always as clean at night as in the morning, except for the necessary dirt and dust which is brought in. The attitude of the whole campus seems -more studious.” “I have made many friends, I think,” he smiles, “anyway, I know a good many students well and they arei always most courteous and con genial to talk with.” Mr. Morthland, before coming to Eugene, owned a fruit ranch in southern Oregon, and before occupy ing the position as janitor, was in the real estate business in Eugene.
