Towns people will pay the regular admis sion price of one dollar and tickets can be purchased at the Co-op or at Larawav’s Music Store.

A new custom, that of combining the women’s and men’s glee clubs in one annual home concert, was in augurated last Thursday night at the Woman’s building, and met with high favor. Such astonishing volume, shading off at tinges into the most delicate of tones, and every gradation, rich in quality, is never met except in the work of a body of picked Singers with fresh young voices, under competent di rection. The numbers, all in excellent taste, were arranged with apparent regard for good program building. The first number, “Hiawatha’s Wedding Feast,” a difficult compo sition requiring about thirty-five minutes for performance, was as tonishingly well sung and most adequately interpreted. This is a difficult composition, yet full of exquisite harmonies, which the clubs sang most musically. • The tenor solo, “Onawav. Awake Be loved,” was sung by Mr. Frank Jue. This number is lovely in melody and dramatic effectiveness, and was sung exquisitely by Mr. Jue. He was in excellent voice and won spontaneous approval from his aud ience. Miss Frances Pierce played an excellent accompaniment. “I’ll Sing Thee Songs of Araby” by Richard Adam followed the first intermission. Mr. Adam’s rich, tenor voice was never heard to bet ter advantage. He responded to an encore. The glee clubs’ hummed accompaniment was charmingly ef fective. Miss Ruth Akers sang two numbers and an encore. They were all equally interesting. Miss Akers has a clear soprano voice which is always pleasing. “Lift Thine Eyes” from Elijah, sung by the Girl’s glee club, was | beautifully and delicately sung. The shadings were,, exquisite. “Lindy Lou” and “Bird of the Wilderness” also met with approv al. Mr. Roy Bryson received a warm j welcome as usual. He sang two dramatic numbers with good inter pretation and pleasing voice. He | responded to two encores. “Land of Hope and Glory,” by the glee clubs concluded the program. This | number was a brilliant climax. It is observable that the clubs are j working with music of a very high i class. No vaudeville stunts ap jpeared on the program. Plainly the ■ function of a glee club is to sing i i with musical judgment and skill, j Both glee clubs and their director, Mr. John Stark Evans, should be' commended for their work, which is,highly admirable and interesting, and the concert was a real musical treat. ^ - -- >•— i- A, ■% _*„_f- ■ * LIFE-SAVING TEST COMING IN MAY L. E. Palmer to Have Charge Of Instruction; Red Cross Approves Plan METHODS TO BE TAUGHT With the view of developing in terest in the coming lifesaving tests to be held early in May, the local Bed Cross lifesaving corps is plan ning a series of instructions. The local corps is co-operating with the department of physical education in handling this phase of swim ming. The main purpose of this plan is to educate the swimmers in the proper methods of handling them selves in the water. The methods used by the corps are approved by the National American Bed Cross corps and give individual instruc tion in swimming, diving, methods of resuscitation and everything called for in the saving of a drowning person. Practice in Coaching Offered Instruction will be given , by the members of the corps with L. E. Palmer in charge. This method will give the members practice in teaching 'which “will finally fit them for positions as examiners. To be a lifesaving examiner a stu dent must make a percentage of better than ninety and be able to instruct others in the proper meth ods. Periods for individual instruc tion as given out by the depart ment will be on Monday, Wednes day and Fridays from 2:20 o’clock to 0:20, and Tuesdays at 11. Other periods will be arranged by Palmer if conflicts arise in schedules. Students interested in this pro ject are asked to signify their in tention by signing a slip and plac ing it on the table in the swimming tank in the men’s gymnasium. This should be done as early as pos sible, said Palmer, otherwise the late students will lose the funda mental instruction. Third Corps Promised The men’s lifesaving corps is giving this work as part of its pol icy of education and instruction for swimmers. A third corps will be organized in May, during the visit of the district representative of the National American Red Cross. The second corps was added after the tests given last term. The millraee will be used for group instruction as soon as the present weather subsides, said Pal mer. This plan will necessitate the co-operation of, the students and will be under the direction of the student corps’ captains. -Actual instruction may be stressed more forcibly in this way. dougnWbmll CONTESTS POSTPONED Due to the inclement weather con ditions the tentative doughnut baseball tournament scheduled for this week has been definitely post-1 poned. The contests will start next Wednesday with the teams playing as scheduled. This arrangement moves the dates for the games forward one week and will not handicap any of the teams. Practice period arrange ments for the first part of the week should be made in the office of the athletic director. This method of signing for hours will tend to. les sen the possibility of crowding] The games scheduled for today will be advanced a week and the present arrangement may have to be changed due to the practice of the freshman teams. If this occurs a statement will be issued by Virgil ■Earl, who is in charge of the intra mural sport, and the change will be posted and announcements sent to the various teams. According to this plan the first doughnut game will be played Wed nesday the twenty-second between Psi Kappa and Kappa Sigma fol lowed by the (Friendly hall and Beta Theta Pi contest. Wright Brothers Resided in Eugene Dean Straub Says “When the Wright brothers, made their first flights in the ca3t, and in France, I did not know at that time that they were the same Wright boys who used to live in Eugene,” said Dean John Straub. “About a week ago, Mr. M. S. Barker, owner of a music store on Willamette street, told me that they were the same boys that had come to him thirty years ago and talked over ideas of a flying machine. At that time Barker was interested in a fly ing machine, and frequently worked with the boys.” Their great desire was to con struct an object heavier than air, that would fly. They were con tinually tinkering with the crude materials, when they were young boys, and they questioned every one as to their ideas about fly ing machines, said the dean. On Decembed 17, 1903, Orville and Wilbur made Itheir first flight in a heavier-than-air machine. It never occurred to me, said the dean, that they were the in ventors of the aeroplane. OPERATIC PROGRAM TO BE GIVEN SUNDAY Mu Phi Epsilon to Present Fourth Concert Tomorrow afternoon Mu Phi Epsilon, women’s national musi cal fraternity, will present an opera program In the school of Biusic auditorium, starting at 4 o’clock. Madame Rose McGrevp; has charge of the program and is being as sisted by Esther Church. This con cert will be the fourth in the series of six concerts sponsored by this fraternity.

IN MEMORIAM Resolution Whereas Almighty God in his infinite wisdom has seen fit to re'move from our midst, our late friend and fellow student, Og den R. Mills, and Whereas, by his death the ! University of Oregon has lost I one of the most earnest and re spected students; therefore, be it Resolved by the Associated! j Students of the University of Oregon that to his sorrowing family we extend our deepest sympathy, and be ’ it further Resolved that a copy of these j resolutions in behalf of our be- | loved friend be sent to his fam- [ ilv, and that a copy be tran- j i scribed on the records of the As- ! sociated Students of the Uni- ! versity of Oregon, and that a j copy be published in the student i publication. 5>--— Spring Grid Practice Ends With Banquet APRIL SHOWERS HALTJASEBALL First Game Scheduled With Pacific University; Tilt With Salem Cancelled PROBABLE LINEUP GIVEN \ April showers may bring May flowers, but this adage does not hold true in baseball and as a re sult, the Oregon varsity ball squad has spent an idle week, unable to hold any outside workouts on the new diamonds. While the rains have completely halted practice for the past week, Coach Reinhart has fcortcentrated' on the varsity batteries—giving the twirling and catching staff seve ral workouts in the gym. Inas much as the Oregon squad has passed the early stages of practice, bunting practice in the gym was hardly necessary during the in clement weather. Showers Halt Games The water-soaked diamonds dur ing the past week halted several practice games that were on tap for the varsity—as several games were scheduled with the freshman nine. These games would have been the first real outside competi tion contests held by the Lemon Yellow. Also a game was arranged for the varsity with the Salem Senators today, however, inability to complete arrangements together with bad weather canceled this pos sible tilt. During the coming week, a stiff practice program will be scheduled for the varsity to whip them into shape for the initial scheduled game for the year, with the Paci fic university nine. The practice games that were to. have been played this week with the frosh will be run off sometime within the next few days. Possible Lineup Given "* The men that will probably play a prominent part in the freshman varsity encounters will include the following possible lineup: Bex Adolph on first, with Howard Hob son on second. Both of these men have been showing up to advantage during practice periods. Freddy West, member of the 1924 fresh man ball squad, will no doubt line up at short, with Troutman held in reserve. Sam Cook or % Lynn Jones will be scheduled at third. Should Cook start, Jones will no d(jpbt be used in the outfield. The battery for the contest will be made up of either Jack Bliss or George Mimnaugh at the receiving end with Ray Williams, Skipper Brooks and Carl Knudson alternat ing on the mound. The outfield berths will be held down by Frank Reinhart, Lynn Jones, Doug Wright, Carl Knudson or George Mimnaugh. PHILLIP! STUDENTS ENTERTAIN WITH MUSIC The Cosmopolitan club was the guest of the Philippine students of the campus, last night at the V. M. hut. The various nationalities represented in the Cosmopolitan club take turns in entertaining the club at each session following the business meeting. The speaker of the evening was Dr. Warren D. Smith, of the geo- j logy department. He gave a gene ral discussion of the Philippine I islands. Educational methods in I the islands were touched upon. Dr. j Smith has resided in the islands for j 12 years. The Varsity Philippensis orches- j; tra, a stringed orchestra of native 1 instruments gave several selections. ! Typical of the program was “No ' Me Olvides,” translated “Don’t' Forget Me,” and “Vigan March.”) Native songs were also sung by the members of the orchestra. Dick Smith Urges Men To Be Back for Work By September 15 “Be back here September 15, ready to play football!” This was the dominant thought expressed at the banquet held last night at the Osburn for the football candidates who turned out for spring practice. “This spring the time has been spent getting acquainted, and in getting used to the game,” said Coach Dick Smith, “and we will plunge right into stiff practice promptly next fall. I want every man on the field the opening day.” Equipment is Plentiful Equipment in plenty for every man will be ready, announced Vir gil Earl, director of athletics. Every man will be asked to fill out a form before he leaves this spring, and he will find his uniform ready for him when he gets here ijext term. Earl also emphasized the importance of maintaining a scholastic average that will insure eligibility.

W. The first performance of “Crim son Eyebrows,” a Chinese musical comedy, was given last night in the school of music auditorium under the direction of Anne Landsbury Beck. A large crowd attended, and the performance will be re peated tonight. The cast was made up entirely of the members of the University Jjjgh school glee club. They were de ightfully costumed and sang with spirit and charm. DeLillian Olson, is Ting Ling and Franklin Hall as Kanehong, sang two duets in a commendable and charming way. i Both of these characters won narked approval in their solo work. Vliss Olson’s costumes were dainty tnd becoming. Tn act three Frank in Hall wore with distinction a .•ery old blue satin Chinese coat md appropriate brocaded trousers, rhis costume was loaned by Mr. Frank Jue. Dean Scott as Wang Mang, the isurper Emperor, did very superior ! vork for a high school student. He ' has a well developed baritone voice, which appeared to advantage. The be9t character part and the one producing the most laughs from the audience was “Old Buddha,” a wife of a former Emperor, played by Bradford Datson. His imper sonation of a woman was excel lent and often extremely laughable. Hiram White as “Star Eye” made a decided hit and “Neptune” played by Kermit Stevens was sur prisingly clever. A humorous trio “Three Gay Conspirators,” sung by Wang Mang, “Star Eye” and “Neptune” won hearty approval. Ruby George made a very attrac tive Ah Me and Charles Marlotte as Hing Lee was noticeably strong in his part. The orchestra did excellent work acompanying in a professional way. To Mrs. Beck, director of “Crimson Eyebrows”, goes a great deal of the credit for the attractiveness and highly entertainingqualities of the opera. A second performance will be given tonight starting at 3 o ’clock.
