Canoe Fete Tickets Go on Sale April 20 Kuykendall’s, Co-op Tickets for the canoe fete will be on sale April 20 at Kuykendall’s drug store and at the Co-op. This early date was decided upon to pre vent a last minute rush and to make it possible for those townspeople and others, who in the past have found difficulty in getting their seats, to buy their tickets early and so make sure their possibility of procuring a seat. All the permanent bleacher seats will be reserved and will be on sale for 50 cents. Others which will be put up temporarily on the night of the fete and which will seat approx imately 1000 will be on sale for 25 cents. Booths will be erected at which general admission tickets will be sold. Ushering will be worked under a system this year. Regular usher re hearsals will be held under the guid ance of Kirk Bolliger. As for the fete itself, it promises to introduce something new in its decoration effect. Decorations are being stressed more £han ever this year and the idea is to present a beautiful fantasy that will not rely entirely upon the individual beauty as presented by each float. There will be a special setting for the orchestra, something new in the line of features and the lighting effect will be more extensive than last year. Floats will be run off in as rapid order as possible and in accord with this idea a timing scheme will be used. There is room for one more humor float in that section. Any houses who wish to enter that group are requested to inform Earl Chiles of the matter immediately. Also, the houses are warned not to forget that the name of the float, plans and lighting effect wished by each organization be turned in by April 22. The names of the commit tee heads in each organization should be turned in to Chiles im mediately. * Dick Reed to Tangle With Williams Tonight Dick Reed, former Oregon foot ball captain, will again enter the boxing arena tonight when he meets Sailor Mike Williams of Portland in a six round special event at the winter garden.

Dance Drama Has Atmosphere pf Colorful and Dreamlike Fairyland Moods Range From “Midsummer Night’s Dream” to “Song of the Volga Bargemen” Naiads, fairies and swans danced on the stage of the McDonald the ater in the third annual dance drama given by Orchesis last night. In the first episode of the “Mid summer Nights Dreami” the first fairy of Titania’s train wandered in the woods, and met Puck. Titania , and her fairy train entered and Oberon and his elves came in to beg Titania for thie Chiangelimg Boy. Titania refused to give him up. Oberon vowed to torment her and called Puck to get the flower Love ; in-Idleness. Oberon, Puck and Love-in-Idle ness danced. As they left, Titania and her train entered and Titania slept. Puck seized the fairy on guard and Oberon watched as Love in-idleness dropped the magic li quid on her eyelids. Oberon re joiced for he knew that Titania would fall in love with the first thing she saw. Clowns in drab costume entered and began to re hearse a play. Puck saw them and puts an ass’s head on Bottom. His comrades fled and Bottom began to sing. Titania woke and fell in love with Bottom. The awkward Bot tom .smirked as the fairies waited on him. Oberon entered and de manded the Changeling Boy, and gave the child to the fairy king. Titania, infatuated with Bottom Then Oberon took the spell from Titania and Bottom fell asleep. The impish Puck removed the spell from Bottom and mocked him. In the list episode Titania en tered with her colorful train and left with Oberon. The entire three episodes were carried out in panto mine. A quartet sang the “Fairy Roundel,” and “Through the House Give Glimmering Light” during part of it. Vivian Woodside sang “I am Titania.” Leading characters were: Puck, Elizabeth Lewis; Titania, (Eliza beth Talbot; Oberon, Catherine Sar tain; First Fairy, Louise Wisecar ver; Love-in-Idleness, Frances Hare; Bottom, Frances Vaughan. The scene for the opening num ber, “The Lake of the Swans” was laid in a Grecian garden. Naiads in gold rose form the steps below (Continued on page four) Regularity of Job Aim, Says Labor Authority Whiting Williams Speaks On Worker’s Problems Before Assembly Contrary to the general belief that the mighty dollar is uppermost in the mind of the laborer, Whiting Williams, idealist, scholar, and na tionally known authority on the problems of the working man, yes terday told 2500 students and mem bers of the faculty at the first as sembly of the term that it is not so much the pay, but the regularity of the job, and the certain spiritual satisfaction the man feels in his indispensableness as proved by his job that is vital to the working man. “Irregular work, tends to make an irregular worker,” Mr. Williams declared. “The laborer, like every one else, lives his way into his thoughts, more than he thinks his way into his life. The laborer can see life only as a result of his job.” Mr. Williams, who has spent many years studying the worker’s mind and spirit by working as a jour neyman laborer, ^in steel and coal mines and on wharves, in America and other countries, said that lab orers cannot be decent, upright cit izens as long as their jobs are ir regular. America along with the other nations will continue to have trouble with the laboring man un less he is allowed the spiritual sat isfaction of a regular job. “Give us this day our daily job,” Mr. Williams declarer! to be the prayer of millions of workers. An answer to this prayer the speaker said was infinitely more important to the laboring man than the “Give us this day our daily bread,” be cause with a “daily job” the worker is able to supply the “daily bread” and yet have the spiritual satisfac tion that he is an important cog in life. Week-End Discussed By Juniors at Meeting Reports of progress On plans were mlade by various committee chair men of junior week-end at the jun ior class meeting iir Villard hall yesterday evening. It was decided that a class picnic will supplant the usual class dance this term. Hugh Biggs was appointed .chairman of the affair, and Katherine Graef, as sistant. Professor George Turnbull, class advisor, made a brief address. New details to be a part of the annual week-end activities are a dual classification of the canoe fete, dividing the floats into artistic and humorous sections, with separate awards for aech. The correct attire for the prom will be formal, but informal clothes will not be prohibited. Tickets for the dance will be $1.50. A purchase requisition system has been adopted which will sanction purchases only by signatures of com mittee managers.

Williams is Guest Of Faculty at Lunch Members of. the faculty of the University were hosts at a luncheon at the Anchorage yesterday noon to Whiting Wjlliams, sociologist, writ er ani lecturer, who spoke at yes terday’s assembly. Mr. Williams talked for 20 min utes in an informal way on “Main springs of Man.” He set forth the theory that to get the best results from men in the rank and file, from men in managerial positions, from university students, and from teach ers and professors there must be de vised some way of making the ef fort worth while and of gaining distinction for the person affected. “The reason so many persons are indifferent to their tasks is because they feel in the language of the working man, ‘extra effort don’t get you nowhere,’ said Mr. Wil liams. After the luncheon the faculty engaged in a general discussion of the thesis set forth by Mr. Wil liam*. OregonNine’s Strength Lies inBatterymen Capable Candidates Vie for Berths as Pitchers and Catchers Only One of Seven Flingers is Southpaw Wealth of Material Out for Backstop Job If old-time baseball men are right in believing that a good battery is half the team, Coach Billy Rein hart should have little trouble in turning out a winner this year. A corps of 12 battery men are turn ing out daily for practice and some of them are showing good stuff. Right handed flingers seem to be Reinhart’s long suit. Six star board moundsmen, Williams, Harris on, West, Baker, Ashby and Fen wick are taking their turn on the hill. Ray Williams, varsity picther for the last two years, is in good condition and should improve this season. Harrison Gains Control “Frisky” Harrison, who did his initial mound work last year for the varsity is in better form than last year. Harrison’s big trouble last year was hie control. With last summer’s semi-pro experience be hind him he seems to have over come this fault. New in this posi tion, but familiar to all is Fred West last year’s varsity shortstop, who is making a strong bid for a flinging position. West worked in the Idaho game last year at Moscow and had the Vandals fanning the air for a a few innings. Bill Baker, moundsman last year for the freshmen moundsmen, is showing up well. Last summer Baker turned in a number of wins while pitching for the Independence ball club. Bill Ashby, member of the 1924 freshman team and since one of the mainstays for the Salem Senators, is pitching good ball and should receive the pitching assign ment for several games. Walter Fenwick, member of last year’s var sity squad, is shooting the ball over the plate in good shape. Bill Bam ber, only southpaw turning out, is shooting some fast ones over. Bam ber was a member of last year’s freshman team. Behind the plate Coach Reinhart has five capable receivers. Jack Bliss, member of the varsity for the past two years, is out with his usual good form and chatter. George Mimnaugh, catcher and outfielder from the 1925 varsity, is showing good form, Charles Orr, second string catcher for the past two years, is working hard for a varsity berth. From last year’s freshman team the coach has Bob Henningsen and John Caughell, both papable backstops.

Fians to build a new hospital for the health service were abandoned! Under the plans adopted by the building committee of the associ ated students for the new basket ball pavilion the building would be biult on the ground with no base ment. The building committee of the board of regents allowed money to the student*’ building committee to build a basement under the pa vilion. The basement will be 80 by 160 feet and will give ample room for the housing of the outside sports. Lockers, showers and equip ment rooms for the sports will be built in. This is more room than is now available in the old build ing and will also give more room for the physical education depart ment. Basketball Courts to Be First Enough money is not available t® build and finish the entire basement but room for the basketball squad will be finished first. Four new handball courts will be built in the outdoor gymnasium. They will be built on the plan of the present courts but will be of better material and will have a bet ter systom of ventilation. This will double the present capacity for handball and squash. A baseball field will be graded for the freshmen just northwest of the present varsity field. This will put all the baseball fields together. Girls’ Field to Be Finished Money was also allowed to finish the women’s athletic field that has been started just south of the Wo man’s building.

Willamette Univer sity. Miss Priday was active in Y. W. J C. A. work on the Willamette cam pus, being among the students who attendod the Seabeck conference last summer. Due to her interest in students of other countries and a desire to do social service work after graduating, she was given the opportunity to apply for 'member ship in the party of 24 women. The party will sail from New York about June 23 according to present plans, and it is possible that they may travel on the same ship with the Sherwood Eddy par ty. Miss Henrietta Thompson, of Berkeley, California, secretary of the committee on friendly relations with foreign students, will act as one of the two guides on the pil grimage. The students will be divided into two groups, which will follow diff erent itineraries but will meet in Geneva to hear lectures on th» League of Nations. Student mem bers of organisations will be met in the various countries and discus sions of problems of mutual inter est will take place. England, France, Jugoslavia, Hungary, Austria, Po land, Czechoslovakia, Germany, Hol land, Bulgaria, Houmania and Swit zerland will be visited by the tourists. Miss Priday intends to study the European situation in regard to pos sible fields for social work. She .does not expect to graduate this year but will probably be back on the campus next fall.
