MUSIC STUDENTS
DO FOLK DANCES
In order that they could. gain
first-hand understanding of folk
dance music, as it is related to
more artistic forms, some 65 mu
rsic students, members of Anne
-Landsbury Beck’s class in field of
music, did folk dancing Monday
morning at the women's gymna
sium under the direction of Miss
Marjorie Forehemer, head of in
terpretive dancing.
Old folk forms were given par
ticular attention. Gustaf’s Skoal,
Swedish, and Norm Miego, a Lith
uanian folk air, were the tunes
used. A group of Eugene school
children gave a Swedish dance,
“Kinderpolka,” and a Swedish
singing game, “I See You,” for the
music students.
“Participation in the actual folk
dancing is of much help in under
standing the relation of the early
folk dance to more artistic forms
of music,” commented Mrs. Beck
yesterday.

H. Bramwell and was on the uni

Idols of Alpha Hall
Anyone wishing to know the
reason why there are so many
barbers going broke should walk
into Alpha Hall some time. From
the time that you set your foot
in the door until you are out in
God’s pure air again, you will
probably either have your hair
turn gray or lose it altogether, to
say nothing of years taken off
your life. To be greeted by a uni
versity student with a beard blow
ing in the wind is enough to give
anyone a thrill. No, it is not the
grand national convention of the
House of David, but the 30 mem
bers of Alpha Hall putting on the
preliminary Touches for their In
formal Hobo dance. The latest
ruie in the hall is that ’nary a
face shall be scraped until after
the dance.
At the present time, the honors
go to Del Kimberling, who has a
beard that would make Omar
reach for a Murad. The boys
seem to think that it is a great
idea for the cold weather, but
what is going to happen after the
dance ? The money that the stu
dent body contributed to the Red
Cross will probably go to buy fur
lined blankets, just big enough to
cover the faces of the Alpha Hall
boys, in order that ruddy bloom
of youth will once more return.
CONGRESS CLUB TO
HOLD DISCUSSION
"Is Individualism of Students
Suppressed at the University?”
will be the topic discussed tonight
at the College Side Inn by the
Congress club. Paul Laub, senior,
will introduce the subject, which
will be opened to discussion.
According to Roger Ptaff, pres
ident, a number of phases of the
subject will be taken up, some of
them being campus traditions, liv
ing restrictions, university curric
ula, and methods of instruction.

What a picnic for the feature
writer with a humorous turn of
mind! Love, Trulove of his work,
gives him an Edge over the or

when he thinks of the number of
other articles written on the same
subject, but his face lights up
when he thinks of the A. S. U. O.
directory's long list of Smiths,
Shearers, Bakers, Cleavers, Full

Millers, ^chniftzefs (some of
these, he is sure, are the ones who
gave Irvin S. Cobb his very best

Gardners, Webers, Ryders, Wheel

Porters, Taylors, Barbers, Dyers,
and last, but not least in his mind,
the Parkers, with whom he classes
himself and the Turners every
time he goes down town.
So, if he is Wise, and is not
Lazier than his Younger brothers,
David, James, Henry and Jack,
fine Fellows in their way, or his
Young sisters, Eva, Fay, Lillie,

make a Fairchild look homely and
who think more of a Guy with a
well-invested Bond than of a real

Page of copy paper in his trusty

over, in and about, the 3000 names
in the ‘'Guide.”
He might first notice the Cul

Chance to be represented in the
directory. Fe sees Greens of ev
ery Schade, dazzling Whites,
Jette Blacks, Munks in Gray,
many Grim or kindly forms of
Brown, and a Goldberg, a Redkey,
and a Winestone.
Then, since inspirations come
in Tooze, he might see the possi
! bilities of the book as an aid to

Painton landscapes. There are

Too, he sees many foreigners.
1 There are French, men from Ire
land of O’Leary and O'Bryant,
even some from Holland and
Spain.
And such names as Kihs, Majia,

WALTER BARNES LOOKS
FOR U. S. RECOGNITION
(Continued frorn Tage One)
Mr. Barnes said. First, there was
nothing of the backward side of
the country shown. Very few
rural scenes, no country villages,
nor any poor were included in the
presentation. Second, both schools
and politics were completely omit
ted from the picture. It was
rather natural to expect that
teachers, equipment, political lead
ers, and government officers
would be shown.
When asked if this picture was
not a form of propaganda, Mr.
Barnes explained that it was no
more so than recent Japanese
films that have presented Japan
as “moonlight, smiles, and com
fort.”
The poorer classes of Russia are
somewhat better off under the So
viet government, Mr. Barnes ex
plained.
"The Soviet government,” he
said, “is a step forward for the
working man on the material
side; but iike Mussolini’s Italy, it
is a step backward in the free
dom of thought.”
