“Fantastique” Is
About Golliwogs
And Such Things

Dwarf That Kills Self
Form Pivot
School Children to See
Matinee of Drama
It’s the birthday of the Infanta,
and entertainers have come from
far and near to amuse her—an Af
rican juggler, a Punch and Judy
show, the golliwogs, the gypsies,
dancers, and the knave of hearts—
but it is only the little ugly dwarf
who interests her. Such is the sit
uation of the “Fantastique” in the
Dance Drama to be given at the
McDonald theater April 7.
Everyone laughs at the dwarf ex
cept the princess, so she sends them
all off, and listens while the dwarf
tells her of his life in the forest.
As he talks his words come to life
in the back of the stage—the wind
dances, the dances of spring, of
summer, of autumn, and of winter.
But the Princess is spoiled, and she
is soon bored, and leaves the little
dwarf alone.
Dwarf Plays Part
But, he has never had a friend be
fore and grieves that she' should
leave him. In trying to find his
way into the palace, he accidentally
reveals a mirror, and for the first
time sees himself as he is,—ugly and
repellent. So he dies, heartbroken.
The eostuming and staging for
the Dance Drama are practically
completed, according to Miss Lillian
Stupp. Several girls stayed over
during spring vacation and worked
upon the properties and costumes.
Every girl is making her own cos
tume, after having been given the
material and instructions.
Tickets at Co-op
Tickets will be on sale at the Co
op and the Eugene Music Store, as
well as at each of the women’s liv
ing organizations.
A special performance of part of
the Dance Drama will be given on
the afternoon of April 7 at four
o’clock for the school children of
Eugene. Coupons are being given
at the various schools for this spe
cial presentation.
Doris Helen Patterson will play
the harp in place of Emily Williams,
who was recently hurt in an ac
cident.
Two Are Penalized
For Cheating During
Winter Examinations
Cheating in the recent final ex
aminations was the subject of a
short meeting of the student ad
visory committee, composed of a
number of the faculty, yesterday
morning, and as a result the follow
ing penalties were assessed:
Fifteen term hours of University
credit were taken from one studenl
as a penalty' for copying from a
neighbor in a final examination. The
customary penalty of suspension
from the University for one or more
terms was modified in this case be
cause of the excellence of the pre
vious record and other extenuating
circumstances of the student.
A fine of four term hours of Uni
versity credit was imposed on one
,student for assisting another in
cheating. The student in this case
did not receive any assistance in his
own work.
Smoker
(Continued from, page one)
number will be followed by Freddie
West, the carolling baseball play
er and expounder of high finance,
who will scratch his banjo and sing
songs which will not be cramped by
the presence of ladies.
The next number will be Rich
mond Hurd and Walter Jones in
their sister act on the banjos. This
act will be trailed by Dave Mason,
all around athlete, and Harold Kel
ley, cinder artist, who will enter
tain with the combined charms of
the banjo and the cazoot. Kelley,
by the way, plays the cazoot.
What’s This Mean?
The climax of the evening comes
with the three-play, died-in-the-wool,
non-shrinking, double-back-action
tumbling act perpertrated by Gower,
Richmond, and Wetzel. Wetzel is
the best known of the three. He
gained his fame, however, by pan
tomiming “the swallow returns.”
Other fast acts are being booked,
but word has been sent out that
3very one who can play anything
from a piccolo to a pipe organ is in
cited to appear for a tryout.
Contrary to the usual method of
forcing the guests to wait until the
3nd of the amusement before par
taking of food, the spectators and
spectated will be served cider and
loughnuts as soon as they enter the
igloo and there are no laws against
repeats.

Dear freinds:
When your watch begins to show symptoms of rheumatism
and general debility, just bring it to Mr. Skeie.
He is a real watch doctor. I’ve seen him perform opera
tions on watches here at the store that looked absolutely hope
less. But he has them ticking away like new in a few min
utes.
It takes a steady hand and a good eye to fix a watch.
Bring in your ailing time pieces to the watch hospital here
and have them cured. Mr. Skeie says, -‘No cure, no pay.”
That’s fair enough.
TICK.
