Piano Classes By New Systei Begin This Wee School of Music Sponsors | Mrs. Bevitt’s Free Instruction A ’two-weeks series of piano - lessons sponsored by Sliermnn and ^Olay and given under the auspices of the school of music, will be pre sented by Mrs. Zay Hector Bevitt of San Francisco, beginning Thurs day afternoon, November 3 at one o’clock. Mrs. Bevitt's main object, ns ex pressed in the Portland Oregonian, is to reach children and adults who do not play and to give them a foundation that will fit into any method should they wish to con tinue musical study and to enable them to play with a minimum of personal supervision. Mrs. II. M. Bong-lass, instructor in music, who has charge of her course here, states that one of the main advantages of the harmony diagram system is that the pupil may begin to learn much more difficult and attractive pieces than would be possible for some time by the note system. “To learn music effectively one must think,” Airs. Douglass re marked.“ The harmony diagram system makes the students con sciously analyze chords and under stand the structure of a piece. This is of a greaf value in sight reading, memorization and advanced musical study. Some artists have their dif ficult pieces diagramed by her to assist in memorization. “Mrs. Bevitt has had good musi cal training and experience,” she continued. “In addition to her hor mony studies under John Breech hoven in Cincinnati she has been head of the Atlantic conservatory of music and a rnembe* of the teachers’ staff at Brenau college at Gains ville, Ga. She also taught at the Institute of Music in San Francisco and in Cora L. Williams’ Institute for creative education in Berkeley.

The United Christian Work has for its mission the direction and supervision of the Christian work on the campus, including student par ticipation in church activity, the employment division under Mrs. Donnelly, and the Y.

Russia Says She Will Join Disarming Meet GENEVA, Oct. 1.—Soviet Russia today informed the League of Na tions she would participate in the j preparatory disarmament confer ence, thus adding materially to its j prospects of success. Because of the acquittal by* a Swiss jury of a Russian who mur dered the Bolshevik diplomat Vor owski, Russia had refused to send delegates to league meetings in I Switzerland. Recently the affair was settled i amicably. (By United Press) Student Body Adopts Plans On Serenades Resolution Designed to Make Entertainntents Legitimate Police Eager to Aid * In Solving Problem1 Dean to Submit Plan to City Tomorrow By AMOS BURG Eager to eradicate the problems arising out of the Sigma Xu’s early lorning serenade of last Saturday, ..ie student eouncil at a special session yesterday afternoon, unani mously adopted a resolution to put serenades on a legitimate basis sub ject to regulation. Judge George Gilmore and James Strait, chief- of police, commended the action taken by the students as a manifestation of the .intelligent and willing co operation of the student body. The movement for the adoption was led by the student body presi dent, Donald Beeler, who expressed the opinion that further court pro ceedings in solving the issue was futile. The resolution provides that future serenades be scheduled with the Dean of Men and the chief of police three days in advance, there by shifting the responsibility from the city officials to the university. The elimination of liangerons and stray vocalists who straggled in the wake of these concerts to produce discords and incidentally trouble was also suggested. Police Commend Action Tn commenting on the action tak en by the student council, Sargeant Julian Strait of the Eugene police department was of the opinion that the difficulties arising from the serenades would have been largely eliminated if the students had looked outside Jhe question and no tified the police. The law calls for absolute quiet after midnight but one of the few eollege traditions that had crept into the police bureau had allowed the judgment of the serenaders to be left to the people. -On the last two serenading tours indulged in by fraternities, calls for relief were sent into the police bureau by sensitive sleepers which resulted in orders for the serenaders to disband. Sargeant Strait said that had the students notified the police of their itiniarv and indenti fied themselves, the misunder standing that followed might have been avoided. A mutual agreement is expected to be reached when the students carry the issue before the mayor and the chief of police to morrow. Blue Law Hit The council in terminating its session took a whack at the blue laws when they appointed Esther llardv and Joe McKeown on a committee to urge that the library be opened on Sunday evening. Tim Wood and Connie Roth were ap pointed to urge that the tennis courts be opened all day Sunday. [infirmary Carries on Rapid Invalid Trade The infirmary is doing a rapid business in invalids, it would ap pear, if the reports issued from there are any indication. Sundav, October JO, saw four students pass From out its sheltering portals, fit j :o resume once more the daily grind, .vhilo an almost equal number 1 sought relief therein from their ail- 1 Merits. Lester Oehler, second year law , itudent, who had suffered a slight hemorrhage; George Chase, sopho iiore in biology, with acute tonsili tis; Jennings Mather, biology sopho nore, ami Howe Weber Jr., both af flicted with colds, were the ones | lismissed. .Malcolm Morrill, freshman in pro-1 aw, who was down with the measles, j .nil be sent on his way tomorrow, i The new group of-invalids received ay the campus hospital are Armand syvanen, sophomore in the school of ‘duration; William Allen, freshman major in economics, both suffering 'rom appendicitis; and Thelma I’e •ozzi, who has a severe cold.

W. Defunct Felines Help Rid Odoriferous Hall Of Wandering Frosh Shades of departed felines! The : which being the tale of a very ten der and very green voting fresh man’s advent into Heady. For on j the 31st. day of October in the year 'of our Lord, 10:17, the above men tioned freshman entered the doors of Oregon’s oldest and mustiest | building. Peadv, to-wit.: With no 'murderous intent at lie-art and with no feeling other than reverence and awe the little man wandered at will through the narrow halls, where the thick murky gloom of eventide was beginning to gather. At length kis wanderings chanced to bring him to the lower floor, where spread before his innocent eyes, he saw—woeful sight—dozens, ‘hundreds, nay thousands (as then j appeared to his poor eyes) of eats, stretched out in all the solemness of death, grim, horrible. Gloom, death, I eats—a wonderful reception for a j poor unsuspecting frosh. lie de parted—went his way with a rath er more hurried gait than usual. Xow some will say, and perhaps rightly, that this tale has a moral j value. To-wit, the significance of the night, for, ns all well known, all Hallow’s eve, is a night for witches, goblins and black cats. Hut as is usually the case in all moral tales there is a catch (and a sad blow to you of the superstitious mind,) the cats were all grey.

The boys from Bachelordon tangle with the Phi Gamma Delta tong at 4:15, and Sigma Pi Tau plays Kappa Sigma at 5:00 p. m. in the men’s gymnas ium. At McArthur Court, Alpha Upsilon and Sigma Chi will fly at it at 4:15 p. m., and Alpha Beta Chi and Delta Tau Delta will finish up the afternoon, starting at 5:00. Seventeen games of the schedule have already been played and this week’s frays will bring the total up to twenty-nine. This week, Sigma Pi Tau, Bachelordon, Alpha Beta Chi, and Sigma Chi, all have two encounters scheduled. This is the first time that one team has had to play more than once in one week, but the schedule makes it necessary. Interest in the games is still high | pitched, and favorites are begin ning to loom up on the horizon. It would be hard to choose between the j Kappa Sigs and Zebras. Sigma Phi Epsilon rates right along with the' leaders since their -decisive defeat 1 of Phi Delta Theta. The Sphinx team cannot be disregarded either in the run for tho championship. All of the quintets have plenty i of fight and long shots. The ball j is continually in a parabola ending somewhere in the vicinity of the ; basket. If you don’t believe it, watch Phi Psi play next time. Give | Bob Foster the ball and he will shoot from any place on the floor. Sometimes he makes a basket, other times he doesn’t.

A few have been playing hide-and seek about the campus for the last three weeks; but. Monday morning they arrived in mass to proclaim the dignity of sophomoreship. And the sophs have a lot to pro claim. They’re announcing that George McMurphy and his hand will take care of the music at the Sopho more Informal, which is scheduled for Saturday, November 1!>, at the armory. There are a number of things about, the dance they’re not an nouncing. Tlic motif, which, by the way, is still involved in the process of elimination, constitutes one of the deep dark secrets. The - fea tures also belong among the un j known quantities. Bob McAlpin is | guarding their identity closely. “We’ve not quite completed tho plans, but they surely look good,” ho stated with enthusiasm. To-Ko-Lo, sophomore honorary, has consented to take care of the clean-up. “We want to thank To Ko-Lo for taking this over,” said Keith Hall, sophomore president. “It’s about the hardest job there’ll be, and it takes good organization i to put it" over.” Sophomores are holding a class I meeting next Thursday to discuss the dance and to let all the class men know just what’s happening, j All plans so far have been carried j out by the directorate, consisting of ttie committee chairmen. Committee work lias been coming along fine, Hall declared. An nouncements will be made soon con cerning the arrangements for the actual work of decorating. “Keep your eyes* open,” is the word of the directorate to the campus. “Tho sophdnore class is alive and you’ll soon know it.” According to latest rumor, plans are already under way for some startling, never - before - witnessed feature. No information, except that it is scheduled for some time previous to the dance, can be ob ta ined. Carpenter Back From Portland Conference Charles K.

Unique Plans For Week-End Being Formed Streets, Windows, Depots To Re Deeorated for Celebration J Big ‘O’ to Hang from 1 Ad Building Entrance New Features Planned for Football Game Plans for Homecoming week are assuming definable shapes and forms. Accommodations, decora tions, transportation, features, and all the requisites involved in the process of a successful welcoming, are daily being given attention and study bv Unowns and unknowns on the University campus. Originality, individuality, in the final word, uniqueness, is the de sired element of each year’s work in preparing to receive the old grads, former students, and visitors to the campus for the three days of November 10, 11 and 12. Plans will continue to develop until the first day of the gain week-end period arrives, and it is thought that by that, time there will be a well planned, smooth-running machine, all ready to receive those who are desirous of a return to a setting that has the spirit and background of a bygone day that cannot be easily revived. Plans Big Time George Hill, chairman of the Homecoming directorate, says, “It ’s our purpose this year to make Homecoming week one of real sig nificance and make old gnads and srintents appreci ate the true mean ing of the word.” He further states that the work of alt the various committees is pro gressing as well ns could he ex pected, and that most of the plans had been fairly well developed and work had be gun on their ex ueorge nui edition. One of tin' most momentous tasks falls to tho decoration committee. This work will be headed by Marion Sexton, who will have as assistants Cecil Snyder, James Haley, Keaton Hammaker and Del Myers. The work of this committee will con sist, in the main, of the decoration on the two blocks from the Co-op to the men’s gymnasium. Big ‘O’ Promised Efforts are being made toward the construction of an enormous lemon “O” on the front of the Ad ministration building. This will be electrically lighted and will have lights playing on it from different positions. By the side, underneath, or above the lemon “0” will be a colored and electrically illuminated welcome sign with appropriate words on it for the occasion. The two blocks between the Co op and the men’s gymnasium will be overhung with large, •'medium and small pennants of all descrip tions in lemon and green colors. There will be three very large pen nants, one at each end and one in the middle of the two blocks, stretched across the highway. Be tween the larger pennants there will be myriads of smaller ones in symmetrical distance arrangement. These will have a lemon background and green, and green background and lemon alternating. The decorations and all accommo dations provided for are under the welcoming and accommodations committee hegded by Mark Taylor. The decorations committee chair man, Marion ,Sexton, said, “The decoration scheme, if fully worked out, will be one of the most unique plans seen on the campus for sev eral years.”' We are trying to make it both impressive and appropriate.” isiugaii uaras 10 Be j^nniea There will be an attempt made to design something new and original in the line of signs. Bnmll cards of some unknown ahtjpe will hear a slogan of some nature, such as “Keep up the old spirit,” “Help beat O. A. or “See the game.” These will be placed at* the disposal of the students, alumni, and all visitors who wish to avail themselves of one. There will also be stickers about 1 — x*» inches in size with some thing similar to “Jump in grads and go our way,” printed on them for use on ears, suit eases, and diverse places.
