Williamson To
Publish Book on
‘Donne Tradition’
Work of English Prof.
Will Be Printed by
Harvard Press
Another Book by Author
Coijcerjis T. S. Eliot
“The Donne Tradition,” a book
written by Dr. George William
son, of the English department
faculty, has been accepted for fall
publishing by the Harvard Univer
sity Press.
This is the first book Mr. Wil
liamson has written, and it is a
signal honor for him to have it
accepted by the Harvard Press,
according to his colleagues. It
deals chiefly with John Donne as
a poet, and the influence he had
on the poets of the 17th century.
He and his followers are called
the metaphysical poets.
It is fitting that the subject of
John Donne should be treated in
this manner at present as so many
of the modern poets go back to
Donne, among them Eleanor Wy
lie, T. S. Eliot, Allan Tate and
Hart Crane.
Another smaller book, “The Tal
ent of T. S. Eliot,” also written by
Mr. Williamson, will be published
at the University of Washington
Press this fall. It will be one of
the series of “Chap Books” put
out at that press, and deals with
Eliot as a follower of Donne.
At present there is a growing
interest in Donne, as shown by the
number of critics and writers pre
paring books on this subject. T.
S. Eliot is working on one to be
called the “School of Donne.”
Mr. Williamson was graduated
from Stanford, received his M. A.
at Harvard and his Ph. D. from
Stanford. He came to the Uni
versity of Oregon in 1928. This
year he has a class in the Donne
tradition of poetry; this is not
generally taught in schools over
the country.
Monies
Evelyn Shaner, Editor
at the McDonald—
After reviewing such a sophisti
cated continental love battle as
shown in “His Glorious Night,”
sighing over John Gilbert’s in
creasing good looks, envying Kath
erine Dale Owen's blonde beauty,
and laughing at the dumb but will
ing Colonel Crale, it is indeed
hard to think straight. For Gil
bert’s voice is ideal in the love
scenes, low, persuasive, tense with
emotion.
AT THE REX—
“Big News” at the Rex is a sure
fire attraction to journalists who
want to see how it’s done in a big
city office. The time lapse in the
whole picture is only twelve hours.
AT THE COLONIAL—
Lon Chaney leaves off being a
criminal and turns detective in his
picture “While the City Sleeps,”
now at the Colonial theatre. As
a New York police officer pitted
against a sinister band he has a
chance for much dramatic imper
sonation.
AT THE STATE—
Jack Holt finds the people like
him better in dramatic roles with
an emotional appeal than in
straight westerns so he made
“Father and Son." Micky McBain
as the son has a piping small boy
voice.
AT THE NEW HEILHi—
A1 Jolson again sings his way
into his hearers' hearts in his lat
est attraction “Say It With Songs"
now showing at the New Heilig
theatre.

few decades. There is the long
sloping bench kind that used to
grace the assembly hall in Villard
years ago, but were a nuisance
because they had to be carried
downstairs and chairs put up fer
examinations. Even the husky
lads of yore got tired of this after
a time and the benches were per
manently ditched in the basement.
Old wornout furnaces, bits of
tools, tables, scores of wire cots
and mattresses, dressers, book
cases, and experiment tubes prac
tically fill the remaining space.
