Send Orchestra
Here on Sunday
Gershkovitch Leader of
Visiting Musicians at
Vesper Service
Guest Conductor of Group
Colorful Character
Presenting n program which will
bo under the direction of guest, con
ductor Jacques Gershkovitch, one of
the most colorful conductors in the
musical world, and which will be
featured by a special violin number
by Mrs. McManus, who, is regular
director and who was formerly a
concert soloist with Sousa’s band,
the 80 piece Oregon State College
Symphony orchestra will appear at
the Music auditorium Sunday after
noon at 3:30. There will be no
admission charged.
Gershkovitch, whose fame lies in
his ability to garb in brilliant col
ors whatever music lie chooses to
interpret, is described as being the
dynamic, forceful, and energetic
type of director whose very presence
and gestures immediately draw the
interest of the audience. He is not
ed for producing effects with his
orchestra that are unusual and at
tractive.
His career has been an extremely
varied and exciting one. He is a
native of Siberia and has conduct
ed orchestras in Irktuslc, China, To
kio, New York, San Francisco, and
at the present time, is conductor of
the Portland Junior Symphony or
chestra, a group of 100 highly
trained and talented young music
ians which has already attracted
national recognition. *>». '
Two numbers of striking contrast
—Tscliaikowsky’s “Slavic” march
and “At Church” also by Tsoliai
kqwsky—are to be played on Sun
day' afternoon’s program. “At
Church” is an arrangement from a
composition for piano, for strings,
woodwinds and percussion arranged
by Conductor Gershkovitch that al
ways has made a deep impression

Collegiate Chaff : : By Ron Huhbs
Editorial Comment on This and That
L
Since the ‘‘burning of the green”
on Junior Week-end by the fresh
men and their self-election to the
wear-as-y'ou-please class, the sopho
mores and juniors have sought an
equal elevation in their class status.
Jt is rather disconcerting to be
thought a frosh, and the mistake
is easily made with the disappear
ance of the distinguished green lid.
Much to the horror of the tradition
ists the sophomores have taken
things into their own hands by
blossoming out in cords, and the
juniors are making a manly endeav
or to cultivate scragglv mustaches.
Either someone is going to have to
use their strong right hand to pre
vent the change, or some official
body wdll have to legalize the trans
formation. The latter course might
be better since the tradition has al
ready been substantially changed
with no apparent harm.
It is an exceptional nomination
speech that doesn’t state: Mv can
didate served on the Greater Ore
gon Committee, the Frosh Bonfire.
Junior Week-end, Homecoming, etc.”
It makes one wonder, what s in a
name? Everyone of these committees
deals with an important campus
function and entails considerable
^ responsibility. Why' is it that "e
seldom hear how well the nominee
carried out that responsibility, or
how efficiently he performed his
task? Is the name these commit
tees carry merely a stepping stone
to higher aspirations? We fail to
think so. If the glory in holding a
committee position is to supersede
the accomplishment of a particular
task then student activities will
reach utter stagnation. One job
well performed should carry more
weight with the electorate than a
bushel basket full <«f appointments.
We were very interested and
pleased to know that the Associat
ed Students of the University of
Oregon puts out the best student
handbook on the coast. Several of
our sister institutions have prided
themselves on the handsome covers
and attractive print cf their hand
books so there must be something
more substantial than appearance
to our book. It must be quality. If
so we shouldn’t be surprised. Qual
ity in student personnel and enter
prise receives its strongest emphasis
at Oregon.
There is one section in the “Hello
Brok” that is still far behind the
rest—the A. S. IT. O. constitution.

“Dead Eye” Hanson, left field.
Officials for the game will bo
Juanita Demmer, umpire; Omar
“Slug” Palmer, bat-boy; and Estill
“Curly” Phipps, water boy and soda

the center of attention will shift
to the river, according to Austin,
where two picked teams cf five
men each will enter rowboats in
their swimming suits, and will stage
a competitive game, the exact de
tails »f which the committee in
charge prefers not to divulge until
the time for action comes.
In command of one boat will be
Captain Jack Erdley, who has named
his craft “IT. S. fi. Constitutbm.”
■Commodore Jack Stipe, will be in
charge of the enemy craft, which
he has christened “Old Ironsides.”

Baker’s hands. Hutchinson drove
one over Epps’ head, but Have

impossible stab. Brannon tried hard,
but ended the game by striking out.
Olinger for Oregon; and Tellef
