Wilbur, head of drama and play production at the University of Ore gon. “It is like cutting down through a part of life, showing every condition. Drama is the only art which forms a combination of all arts.” Miss Wilbur believes in the de velopment of the theatre world j through people with a university background, and wishes to encourage her classes to write one-act plays for production. The new instructor is enthusiastic about the community drama move ment, which started in this country 30 years ago, and which became j popular about 1911 or 1912. “There are two outstanding ex amples of this movement,” she said, “one at Pasadena and the other at Santa Barbara, California. I worked at Santa Barbara as director of drama extension work under the Community Arts Association of that city.

In his greeting the Dean told the now men just what would be expected of them and.what they could expect in re turn. “Wear your freshman caps relig iously and do not bring the univer sity into disrepute,” was the steam warning of the Dean. “Remember,” he said, “that clothes make very little difference if the man inside them is of the right sort. Remem ber. too, that some of the greatest men of this country disregarded clothes entirely. Charles Hughes used his whiskers for a necktie,” continued the Dean, “and oven Use less S. Grant fought through the civil war with nothing more than a union suit, for protection.” The Dean recommended that the boys “hit the tables every day in order that they become proficient with their billiard sticks and pool balls. “If you wish to become a credit to th<* school and be thought highly of you must see to it that vour shots are what they should | Dean Wallace as he appeared just before entering a friendly game of hot hand. be.” Every man, he claimed, should be able to “run the table” before; leaving the college and should have that accomplishment as his goal.
