Daily News Editor This Issue Night Editor This Issue Frances Sanford Webster Jones Leaders— "EVERGUS Reddie, actor-director who has made the dramatic department of the University of Oregon what it is, has produced, in collaboration with Perry Arant, an Oregon grad uate, a fantasy, “Yellow Candle Light,” by name. It will be staged locally in the near future and will probably appear in Portland soon after. “Yellow Candle Light” is neither the first production of Mr. Reddie nor of Mr. Arant. Plays written by the former have appeared for long runs in New York, and have won na tional recognition. Several of Mr. Arant’s musical composi tions have won similar recognition. The University is fortunate in having on its staff men such as Fergus Reddie; men with creative talent. From the purely materialistic viewpoint, it means much for the growth as well as the prestige of the institution to have people who are con nected with it in an official capacity recognized as authorities or as authentic creators in any of the arts or sciences. To the University itself it means the difference between a trade school and a center of knowledge and inspiration. Better Dig In! JN THE Emerald of yesterday was printed the final schedule for the examinations for this term, which will be held Wed nesday, Thursday and Friday, December 17, 18, and 19. Wed nesday, December 17, is just two weeks from today. This term has been excessively crowded with activities out side the regular work of the University, many of which have seriously interfered with concentration on, and interest in courses. Such interruptions not only cause a loss of the actual time consumed, but the period of anticipation and the period of once more “getting the shoulder to the wheel” are passed at much less than normal capacity. The fall term is generally a disastrous one to a very con siderable number of the freshman class. In it the members re ceive their first taste of University work and they must learn to adjust and adapt themselves to new conditions. They are allowed much more individual volition in the mat ter of studies and the manner in which they utilize their time is largely loft to their discretion. Coming “freshly” from high school and familiar with high school methods of restric tions and direction of study their discretion often becomes badly strained, even negative in quantity. With the added handicap of a badly disrupted terra, the returns for this fall may easily show a much higher percentage of casualties than is usual. Much can be accomplished in two weeks of intensive and really earnest study. Many of the gaps can be filled in that time. A considerable number of prospective “F” grades can be transformed into Roman numerals. A professor that is a little doubtful cun be convinced one way or the other by the work accomplished during the next 14 days. Slangily stated, “Better dig in for the next two weeks and convince that pro fessor, ’ ’ “Bob” Mautz is the unanimous choice of the football players for next year’s captain. Certainly everyone of the Oregon rooters who had the thrill of seeing “Bob” rise up out of the sawdust of Bell field a couple of weeks ago and nail that pass for the winning touchdown will nod their heads in satisfaction over the selection and say, “Good choice.” The Oxford debate is tonight.
