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.
