Mix at ‘Art Bust’
Exhibitions During Year
Pul on by League
The ‘‘Art Bust” given Thursday
evening at the Bugene hotel by the
Allied Arts League of the school of
architecture and allied arts, was the
last “Bust” of the kind which will
be given this year, it was announced
by Clarence Lidberg, president of
the league. The party was the final
^ event of Visitors’ day at the arts
school and followed a banquet at
the hotel, for arts students and
faculty.
This mixer was the third that the
student body of the arts school has
had this year, Lidberg stilted. The
first get-together was given during
the first part of the fall term to
help the freshmen and new students
in the department to become ac
quainted with the other students
and the faculty members in a social
way, ho explained. The next mix
was hold during the winter term to
continue the promotion of good feel
ing among the member's of the
school, which is one of the largest in
the University.
All three parties were sponsored
by the Allied Arts League, an or
ganization of the student body of
the arts school, which strives to
regulate the student affairs of the
school, Lidberg continued. Atten
tion is mainly given to the frosh,
and frequently meetings of the
^league arc held in order to help them
adjust themselves to the self-disci
plinary conditions which exist in
the school of architecture and allied
arts.
During the school year, big league
has sponsored exhibitions and criti
cisms of student work every few
weeks. The Richard Lahey exhibi
tion of modernistic art, shown in
the little arts gallery at the first of
the spring term, was brought to the
campus by the league. Each student
pays a small fee, and the fund is
used for exhibits of this kind.
The league hopes to start a fel

in the school, Lidberg said, as soon
as there is sufficient money.
The Architecture club, an organi
zation primarily for students major
ing in the department or architec
ture, works in conjunction with the
Allied Arts league. Carl Ileilborn
is president of the club, and Polly
Povey ,is secretary-treasurer. Meet
ings are held every Wednesday
evening at the home of W. R. B.
^Willcox, professor of architecture,
where open forum discussions take
place.
Tile meetings of the club take the
form of “open house,” for any
student in the school is welcome, as
well as outsiders. These informal
discussions are very popular among
the students. Lidberg, who is a
member of the club, stated, for
every Wednesday finds a large
group gathered there

(Contin ued from page one)

M. A. B. King-llamilton and Her
bert Lionel Elvin, of England, in a.
debate on the question: Resolved,
“That the power of the Press has
increased, is increasing, and should
be diminished.” Oregon took the
negative. A vote of the audience
was 21- to 96 in favor of the affirm
ative.
McKeown, Durgan Debate
California was not so generous
ar. had been the other schools, for
on April 2, Walter Durgan and
Joe McKeown fell to tho University!
of Southern California by a 2 to 1|
veto. The climate seemed to be j
easily overcome, hoWover, and after |
a two-day rest, Stanford lost by de
cision of a critic judge. Debating
this time considered the American
policy in Nicaragua.
Southwestern University of Los
Angeles debaters came to the Ore
gen campus on April 4 and left with
a 2 to 1 win over Ernest Jaclietta
and Elsworth Plank.
Radio debating was repeated this
year as a feature of the imblie
speaking season. At the same time
Southwestern was in Eugene, Eu
gene Laird and Ralph Geyer were
in Portland debating Washington
State College and using as their
auditorium, radio KEX. Oregon
won the decision of the listeners-in.

Women debaters did not fare as
well as the men of Oregon. The

title by defeating both Washington
and Oregon, On April 10, Margarot
Edmunson and Florence MeNerney
went to Moscow, where Idaho took
a 2 to 1 vote, and April 13, Mary
Klomm and Alice Clink wei^ over
come by Washington here by a
unanimous decision. Mass educa
tion was the subject discussed.
“Oregon has had a very impres
sive record in debate this year,
much better than last year,” stated
Mr. Horner. “It is entirely im
pressive in view of the fact that
our squad was almost entirely inex
perienced. I believe that much of
the success of the season was duo
to the fact that most of the debaters
were new, and worked harder than
they ordinarily would have.”
All arrangements for forensic
meets were under the supervision of|
Walter Durgan, general forensic I
manager. Joe McKeown and Flor
ence MeNerney handled their re- j
spcctive men’s and women’s teams.I
McKeown also directed oratory.
Intercollegiate oratory for the
yar was composed of three contests,
all of which were well represented
by Oregon institutions of higher
learning.
The University took but one first
in this work during the year. This
was on the evening of May 4, when
Joe McKeown won the Oregon title
of the National Constitutional Ora
torical contest held at Eugene. Mc
Keown spoke on “The Constitu
tion.” lie was to have entered the
district meet at Santa Clara but
was unable to do so becauso lie was
called homo to Marshfield for a
funeral.

ou tho yellow races, however, and is
evidenced in their cars (most of
which are of foreign make), their
movies and other forms of enter
tainment. China caters to the stage
more than to the movie, although
they have both' Chinese and Ameri
can cinemas.
One very noticeable characteristic
of the Japanese is their extreme
courtesy. It marks them everywhere
and it is a pleasure to have deal
ings with them. Bobbed hair is not
so prevalent in the Orient as is
sometimes believed. In Japan the
Oeislia girls, which arc the nearest
prototype to the American flapper
of a few years back, do not bob
their hair, but wear it. in well-oiled
coils on their heads or down their
backs.
Those girls are very attractive in
their bright-colored kimonas. Moral
lines arc not drawiu (veijy finely
against them by the rest of the pop
ulation, and they are not looked
down upon, although by our Ameri
can standards they would come in
for more censure, thinks Dave.
These girls are distinctly dancers,
singers, and entertainers, all for a
price. Although a man is enter
tained by his wife while at home,
when lie travels the Geisha girls are
expected to entertain him and
nothing is thought of it. This and
other variances in moral codes were
noted by the musician tourists dur
ing their trip.
Surf-board riding at Waikiki
beach at Honolulu was one of the
most exciting diversions of the
boys on their tour. Sea sickness
did not ignore them, especially Art
Larsen, who seemed to bear the
brunt for the rest of tho orchestra
in this capacity.
Tho orchestra left San Francisco
on January 20 and landed in Seattle
by way of Victoria, B. C., Novem
ber 12, “enriched in experiences,
satisfied with a fine time, broke
financially, and above all glad to
get back on U. S. soil,” says Dave
an dhe adds, “I’ve seen plenty of
the Orient to last me a long time.”
