MUSIC OF UNUSUAL QUALITY
PRESENTED BY GLEE CLUBS
By C. B.
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.

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.

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.

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.
Bill Hayward gave the men some
pointers on training, and offered
his services to every player who

“CRIMSON EYEBROWS’’ PRESENTED
BY UNIVERSITY HIGH GLEE CLUB
By M. 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.
