As an added attraction tht two teams will be outfitted in the regulation water polo outfits that were purchased for the varsity last year, and have not yet been used. j The second- meeting of the two % teams will undoubtedly be as evenly matched a battle as the first, which ended in a tie with two goals scored by each squad. Johnny Anderson, varsity merman, is the main hope of the Fijis, and whether or not John Creech, stellar Sigma Xu guard, will be able to again hold Anderson to one goal, will determine in a large part the out come of the contest. The Sigma Xus will also depend heavily on the abili ties of one man, and Bill Gillette’s playing tonight will win or lose for the Sigs. The winning team will e tcr the world’s series with the Phi Psi five for the donut champion ship. Coach Abercrombie will be the chief referee.

REX: Wednesday—May McAvoy and Conrad Nagel in “IF I WERE SINGLE.” COLONIAL: Thursday — Dolores Del Rio in “THE GATEWAY OF THE MOON.” HEILIG-: Thursday — Rod La Rocque in “STAND AND DE LIVER.” REX: May McAvoy and Conrai Nagel in “IF I WERE SINGLE.’ All who wish to know what the firs year of married life is likely t( bring may get a few ideas from thi: picture. The first year must be the hardest for very few could stand more than that if this show gives a true picture of life. But it does not intend to do this, but is meant to be a comedy. This picture is interest ing, and even if it has a few dead spots, the audience got many laughs from it. F. II. COLONIAL: Thursday — “THE GATEWAY OF THE MOON” star ring Delores Del Bio—an unusual picture in an unusual setting. The central theme centers around the blazing of an iron trail through the tropical jungles of the Amazon country. Dolores Del Bio, as Toni, the brilliant, sparkling little Span ish niece of the road-builder, meets the chief engineer, Arthur Wyatt, played by Walter l’idgeon. The plot then unrolls revealing the double crossing work of the old uncle and his partner, and the climax suddenly brings the unexpected. The tropical scenes and surroundings of the pic ture are especially interesting. Also a comedy, “Papa’s Boy,” with Lloyd Hamilton, and Aesop’s Fables, “Hook, Line and Sinker,” Pathe Review featuring “Bits of Nature,” a very clever piece of work. * * » KEILIG: Bod La Rocquc in “STAND AND DELIVER.” Life in London was too tame for the world war hero and so he enlisted in an army in Greece to capture a bandit. Rod La Rocque plays his part well but is nqt as good as AVnr ner Gland, the villain. This picture is filled with action, and if that is the kind of a show you bke you could ask for nothing more. The comedy, “Blow by Blow,” gives an exaggerated picture of home life in America. It is inter esting even if it does fall back on ome custard pie slinging. Also on the program is an illustrated novelty by Freddy Holt. F. II. Wayne Veatcli Elected Head of Spanish Club The bfficers of La Corrida de Todos, Spanish club, for the ensuing year were chosen at a meeting, held at the Alpha Omieron Pi house, Tuesday evening.

University Grad « Tells of Work Knowledge of Economics Aids in Advertising “R. T. Kuhn, advertising service” on the glass door of 421 Oregon building, Portland, Oregon, means none other than Randolph Kuhn, Oregon ’23, better known on the | campus as “Cap.” Mr. Kuhn has spent an eventful five years since leaving the Univer sity, working for the Botsford Constantine advertising agency in Portland, as Professor W. F. G. Thaeher’s assistant here during the school year of 1924-25, traveling over the United States and Europe. After his travels he worked for Honig, Cooper in Portland, and about a. year and a half ago started his own agency. “Since leaving school I have found that a college student is like a tack,” “Cap” said on his recent visit to the campus. “He will only go as far as his head will permit him. That’s not just a mere wise crack either, for in every case it is the man with the best education that goes the highest.” Speaking of his own education, “Cap” said that his study of eco- [ nomies has been of the greatest | benefit to Inin in his business of advertising. It has helped him to grasp the details of the businesses 1 of his various accounts. “The fellow that makes a success in the world,” “Cap” remarked, “is I the one who can understand busi- J ness situations and who knows what is going on in the world.” It was with this idea in mind that Mr. Kuhn went around the rim of the United States and traveled ! in Europe. In his own words, “to become less provincial, to broaden , my viewpoint.” At present Mr. Kuhn is handling the account of the United States National bank of Eugene and lias received national recognition for the work. Chicago papers have clipped the advertisements and com mented favorably on them. “Cap” was the first student of the University of Oregon to major in advertising. During his senior year he had charge of the Emerald advertising service, a class which was just starting, and was also president of the Advertising club, the forerunner of the present W. F. G. Timelier chapter of Alpha Delta Sigma, lie was a charter member of Lambda Psi, which is now a chap ter of I’ll i Sigma Kappa. Grille Dance with Kollege, Knights Sat.
