CAMPUS WOMEN TO VOTE ON APRIL FROLIC TODAY Class Stunts May Replace House Competition “Shall April Frolic be changed so that only four big class stunts are given instead of the inter-liouse competition which has arisen as the result of each house being repre sented?” This is the question which will be put before the women of the campus this afternoon at the first mass meeting of the year, which j will be held at Villard hall at 5:10. “There are many advantages to this proposed change,” declared Anua DeWitt, president of Worn- j en -'s League, in an interview yes terday. “First it will eliminate much useless work on the part of girls in the different houses which interferes with their school routine, and often affects too heavy a de mand upon individuals. I believe also that it will further democracy j because the girls will work in a broader group rather than their own ; customary circle of friends. “Just as much money can be made,” Miss DeWitt continued, “because, with the talent of a whole class at the disposal of the affair, instead of one small group, we should be able to put on much more clever stunts. “The evening as a whole will not be changed,” Miss DeWitt ex plained, “There will be the usual costumes and dancing, and the cup will be awarded to the class instead of the house. Of course these class stunts would be allowed more time, ' so the evening’s entertainment would be the same length as be fore.” I Dr. Wilmoth Osborne, who is fill ing the vacated place of Dr. Bertha Stuart, campus women’s doctor, will give a talk. Dr. Osborne is a grad uate of Reed College and the Uni versity of Oregon Medical School. Miss Lydie Coqblin, beneficiary of the Women’s League scholarship! for this year, has also been asked to talk to the girls. Violet Mills will sing two vocal selections and Esther Church will close the meeting with a piano solo. . All women on the campus are asked to attend this meeting. KIRK CHOSEN DELEGATE TO SCRIBE CONVENTION Hal Kirk was chosen Oregon del egate to the annual convention of Sigma Delta Chi, men’s national honorary journalism, fraternity, at a meeting of the members Tuesday. The convention will be held at the University of Colorado, Boulder, Colorado, November 16th to 18th. Mr. Kirk is president of Sigma Del ta Chi. Ted Janes attended the conven tion last year as Oregon represent ative at the University of Indi anna. Harold Hunnicutt was elected sec retary of Sigma Delta Chi to take the place of Sol Abramson, who re signed because of his duties at the Emerald. TRYOUT FOR SECOND ORCHESTRA TO BEGIN Owing to the wealth of new ma terial on the campus this year, and to fulfill n lnng felt need, a second orchestra will be organized imme diately, is the word given out by Douis Artau, assistant professor of piano who will be in charge of the new organization. It is the plan of the department to train these people for the Uni versity orchestra, and as soon as vacancies occur they will be filled by those in the second orchestra who have attained the necessary proficiency. This will afford un limited training in instrument parts in ensemble playing and onchestr.il experience to many who would oth erwise not be in a position to get it. It will also add greatly to the success of the University orchestra in building up material for this organization. Applicants for positions on the second orchestra should report to Mr. Artau as soon as possible, and tryouts will be held next Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday at five o’clock, in the school of music. All who play orchestral in struments with any amount of pro ficiency are urged to tryout. | Classified Ads ROOM with or without board. 907 Hillyard. Phone 2228-J.
