Godfrey Writes
Of Pan-Pacific
Meet in Hawaii
Former Student Acts as
University Delegate
At Conference
A complete report of the Pan
Pacifie conference, as written for
the New York Times by George H.
Godfrey, was received from Hilo,
Hawaii, by Karl W. Onthank re
cently.
Mr. Godfrey, a former student at
Oregon and reporter for the Eugeno
Guard, served as a delegate from
the University, the Hilo Chamber
of Commerce, the Christian Science
Monitor, and the New York Times
to the Pan-Pacific conference held
last April on education, reclamation,
and recreation. His wife, Mrs. Aug
usta (DeWitt) Godfrey, has a sister,
Anna DeWitt, at the present time
in employment at the registrar’s of
fice and the report was forwarded
as a token of interest in the work
of the University.
“The meetings were intensely in
teresting,” said Mr. Godfrey, “and
as a member of the committee of
arrangement for the post-confer
ence tour of the islands by the del
egates, I became acquainted with
most of them, including Secretary
Work, Mr. Tigert, Mr. Mather and
others.”
The interchange of educational
ideas through the exchange of ed
ucators was encouraged as part of
the program to be followed by the
various countries represented. Vo
cational studies in the lower grades
were pleaded for by the delegates
and a suggestion was made that
Japanese and Chinese be included
in studies for college credit.
lieclamatory programs favored
the government ownership of all (
reclamation projects, and the con
servation group suggested that the
governments encourage the building
of national parks and conservation
of plant, animal, and bird life.
All the numerous delegates dis
cussed the current situation of their
country and then tried to apply a
common remedy that would function
in each country. At the final ses
sion, resolutions were passed thank
ing the president of the United
States for calling the session. It
"as declared desirable to promote
the interchange of educational ideas
and the establishment of education
al centers of information through
such mediums as special courses In
selected university professors, the
broadcasting of educational bul
letins, and individual effort and in
itiative.
Air. Godfrey said that he was
having a tine time in Hawaii and
adjacent islands and that he would
make an endeavor to meet Dr. Hall
when he came to Honolulu next
duly.

‘Arms and the
Man’ Selected
Senior Play
Guild Theater Players
To Stage Production
At Heilig June 10
“Arms and the Man” by Bernard
Shaw has been chosen as the Senior
play, to be presented at the Heilig
theater, June 10, by the Guild the
ater players.
This Shaw play is considered one
of his best. It is a story of the life
in a Bulgarian home, during war
time. A Swiss soldier is chased by
the Bulgarian regiments, and he
climbs up a water spout into the
room of a Bulgarian lassie. When
the Russians inquire for him, the
girl denies having seen him. She
gives him the coat of her father
who is a major in the army, and he
escapes.
When the war is over her fiance
returns home, and seems rather
more interested in the maid than
his girl. He kisses the maid—to her
consternation, and then apologizes,
saying because he is a man of honor
he will never kiss her again except
as his bride. The psychological
moment comes when the Swiss re
turns to bring back the coat he bor
rowed. He has fallen in love with
the girl, but thinks she is far too
young. She decides otherwise and
deliberately sets out to win him,
just as the maid was successfully
winning her mistress’ fiance.
While the Swiss is in the home
of the enemy he receives a message
telling of the death of his father,
who left to him six hotels and all
their accessories. Then he finds out
that Raina is twenty-three instead
of nineteen, and since it made all
the difference in the world to him
he proposes. The parents disapprove,
because of his apparent lack of
wealth. They are reassured upon
hearing of the heritage. Sergius,
the rejected fiance, forgets his prom
ise and kisses the maid’s hand.
She holds him to his promise, and
they marry.
The main intellectual action in
“Arms and the Man” is the exposi
tion of certain mental pecularities
of the professional soldier displayed
in Bluntschli, and Sergius. An idea
of the humdrum elements of mil
itary life is also given.
On the material side for the ac
tion we have Catherine Petkoff, por
trayed by Katie Buchanan, Major
Paul Petkoff, taken bv Cecil Mat
son; and their daughter Raina, por
trayed by Grace Gardner. Then
there are the men: Captain Blunt- '
schli, a plain, intelligent realist of
the middle classes, whose part is !
taken by Alfons Korn; Major Ser
gius Saranoff, a rtomantio, hand
some young man from a noble fam
ily, Lawrence C. Shaw; and the
Russian officer, a typical adminis
trator of discipline, acted by Wil
liam Forbis. Kittye Sartain and
Arthur Anderson play the roles of
the servants, Louka and Nieola.
Sergius and Raina are betrothed,
hut their romantic fervor is over
come by realist love, and the at
tractions of one good looking per
son for another draws Captain
Bluntschli and Raina together. Thus
Sergius is left for the love struggle
with Louka, the proud, beautiful,
energetic anil practical maid. Kit
tye Sartain is playing this role.
These two love affairs lead to a
conflict between the Petkoffs and
their daughter, in which the parents
are ridiculed and youth comes out
the victor.
A peculiar element in the play,
in this duel of sexes, is the pocular
ity that is found in many of Shaw’s
plays. It is the woman, ho avers,
who pursues the man, her assured
prey. Among these characters moves
the manservant, Nicola, Arthur An
derson in the role, who plays the
part of confidante, and the philo
sophically minded servant, who is a
typical character in Shaw’s plays.

Poetess
(Continued from vage one)
appeared a year ago in Poetry and
was included in the last volume of
Braith waite’s annual anthology,
shows her at her best. It has a
haunting emotional delicacy and a
fayish wistfulness, as the introduc
tory stanza reveals:
“Where is the little Queen Amaran
thene
Who wore singing dreams
Like pearls in her hair?
Where, where and where?”
Some of her verses remind me of a
frosted rosebud just warming in
the dawn; others remind me of a
lark rocketing sunward from a
dreary stubble.
It is difficult to realize that she
“sleeps a sleep deep and deep.”
The lines by Edna St. Vincent Mil
lay express what I feel:
“Once the ivory box is broken,
Beats the golden bird no more.”
