MASON Mini MALCOLM McGregor FKI. and SAT. hu the stuye MANHATTAN PLAYERS NOVEL-T “Halstead Street’’ Matinee and Nile Oregon Ranks High Among Colleges Of Nation In New Teaching Methods j Many Schools Changing Systems, Says Sheldon That a general overhauling of teaching methods is under way in at least half of the nation’s col leges and that the University of Oregon’s activities in this field are getting more recognition than those of any other Pacific coast institution were observations made yesterday by Dean H. D. Sheldon, of the school of education, who re turned Sunday night from Cleveland where lie attended a national meet ing of educators. There is a general interest all over the United States for reform in college teaching. Apparently about half the colleges in the coun try, lint simply the state institu tions, but all types of schools, are experimenting and reorganizing their methods, declared the dean. "‘The work donV, as represented by the study of present methods and introduction of the lower and upper division plan, under Dr. A. B. Hall’s program, were referred to at a number of the meetings. It is noticeable that we are getting more! attention than any other Pacific coast school, either because we have, done more or let it be known more,” he went on. I Dean Sheldon was one of a com-1 mittee appointed at the session of teachers of education to study the, present state histories of education, i A half day was devoted to it and; it was decided that an entirely new series of histories should be' pub lished, as the present ones are out of-date and written before the mod ern scholarship standards werej worked out. Dr. Stuart G. Noble, uf<Tulane, uiliveisitv, New Orleans, is chair man of the committee. Dean Shel don represented Oregon, Washington and Nevada; and Dr. John Almack, now of Stanford university and for merly director of the extension bureau here, is the other coast dis trict representative. baring his trip Dean Sheldon en joyed visits with a number of men formerly associated with the uni versity. Dr. G. A. Gregory, a pro fessor in the school of administra tion about five years ago, now of j Cinciunatti, Dr. Homer 1. Rainey, who is president of Franklin col lege, Indiana, and who left here about a year and a half ago, Dr. Harl Douglass, who is now in Penn sylvania on an exchange professor-1 ship from Oregon, were among the instructors lie saw. Former Oregon graduates the dean exchanged greetings with included Gilen M. Ruch, who finished about 1!H7 and is now teaching at the University of California, arid Enos Keezel, who obtained his master’s degree here about 191t> and is now secretary of the Chicago Principal Y club. He stopped in Madison, Wiscon sin, to visit Ralph Casey, Oregon journalism professor who is making a brilliant record. as a political science instructor, he says, and Kim ball Young, who taught here about six years, leaving about three years ago, and who according to the dean ' is rapidly coining to the front as a | leader in sociology, lie will teach j in New York this summer. Malcolm Medler* Blind Piano Student, Shows Wonderful Musical Ability \ i By ALICE GORMAN Congratulations to Mrs. Jane Timelier and Malcolm Medler—to Mrs. Timelier for the extraordinary work that she has drihe and to Mal colm Medler fot the splendid and pleasing way in which he has res ponded to her efforts. Last even ing’s recital at the music auditor ium was. a source of wonder and praise to the many who heard it. The program was well selected, and in places very difficult, but beau tifully done. The thing that can be said of Malcolm Medler’s playing is that it is his medium of express ing himself, and that is not a mere superficial statement—Mr. Medler is a person with emotions, deep feel ings and an accute sensitiveness, all of which lie displays in his playing. Bach’s Prelude and Fugue in D Major was the first number and showed a well defined theme anil good rhythm. The Beethoven Fur Flise followed and was an improve ment even over the first number in the tone qualities. It was a direct contrast to the Fttgue being simple* but necessitating an easy, light touch which Mr. Melder displayed, and a clearly defined melody which was beautifully brought out with a singing, happy quality. With the Gavotte of Gluck-Brahuis Mr. Med ler gained more confidence and play ed it with a lilting lightness that was eharniing. The Gavotte was the favorite of the first three num bers. The Grieg was an achievement! There was a delightful niceness about the individual notes and the spirit of the thing was there. The finale, molto ellegro Was especially $ 'ItllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllirllllllllllllllllllllHIIIllllllllllINfllllOllllllillilllllllllll1' g 1 REMEMBER THAT ... .

Tile third group began with Schu bert’s Impromptu in B Flat. Schu- ■ belt’s appeal is universal, and Mal colm Medlar put all the traditional feeling into it. The Caprice Vien i nois (Kreisler) was lovely for the song in it. Kreisler should have been pleased to hear that interpreta tion. The last number was Chopin's Ballade in F Minor—a most diffi cult thing to play, and splendidly done, especially for the variations | of tones. Altogether it was a pleas ing recital. There are no words adequate to express the credit due to Mrs. Jane Thacher who has worked faithfully and so intensely with Mr. Medler. 11 is playing has reached a maturity hardly thought of a year ago when Mr. Medler came t/i Mrs, Thacher for lessons, and has developed through her painstaking effort. >_ Physics Forum Holds First Meeting of Term Fifteen Members Discuss Problems* Play Games The Physics forum, composed Of senior and graduate students in physics, and members of the physics staff, met for the first time this LAST Showing Tonight No Advance ■ in Prices I'HOOIPH 7UKOB J JtSSE L.

Cheers and Hisses Greet Initial Showing Of Screen Aspirants By C. H. Are college men better looking than college women.’ Yes, but their pars flap. At least that is the verdict of the “Campus Movie” tryout reels ! shown for the first time last night ! n Villard hall to those heroes and I heroines who had their pictures aken. As the reels were shown, the l'owd hissed and booed and clapped ml hollered. In the back of the •oom, a college widow with Cleo mtra hair held court. She was lressed in red. All the glamor of college life hat you see in the lmnest-to-good less movies. There were two characters that food out preeminently: a co-ed vitli the most pathetic, looking face hat ever a child who had been (eaten and starved could have (she night have been Diane, the sweet leart of the “sewer rat” in ‘Seventh Heaven”) and a man ooking like Thomas Mcighan as a sainted sinner. As a rule, the men were much more at ease and much more na tural before the camera. Their fea tures tobk better; possibly because they were large and most of the girls looked too thin. In several of the reels the light ing was poor and faces were barely distinguishable. In some instances the light caught on gleaming eye | balls and made them look like I searchlights. Far from attractive. Union Pacific Offers St'holarships at W.S.C.
