WHAT SHOW TONIGHT? McDonald — Helen Kane In “Heads Up." Heilig—Norma Shearer In “Uet Us Be Gay.” Colonial—“The Border I.eglon,” with Fay Wray and Klehard Arlen. „ State—Ken Maynard. Rex — "The Sea Bat” with Katjuel Torres. Helen Kane Baffled Helen Kane, the buxom little boop-boopa-doop girl of talking screen fame, found herself “up a tree" several weeks ago during the filming of “Heads Up,” the current picture at the Fox McDon ald theater. Helen came to the set looking much slimmer. Her friends asked her the reason and were informed that she had just finished a ten day session of dieting, and just then Victor Schertzinger, the di rector, stepped on the scene. “Helen,” he said, "your part in ‘Heads Up' requires that you have a very healthy appetite. In fact, you must appear to be hungry most of the time, and in many scenes you are shown eating. Here Is a buffet spread with chocolates, glace fruits, salted nuts . , . see that you do it justice." “Ah me!” breathed the comedi enne, “life is just like that.” * * * Shearer at Heilig Norma Shearer continues at the Heilig today and Saturday in her comedy sensation, “Let Us Be Gay.” She is supported by Marie Dressier and Hod LaRocque. The play tells the story of a shoddy woman awakened by her hus band’s defection to a blonde siren. She divorces him, takes the chil dren to Paris, and comes back a beautiful enchantress. Her hus band wins her back after some hilarious complications introduced by the scheming Marie Dressier. * * * Western at Colonial "The Border Legion," which opens at the Colonial today, star ring Fay Wray and Richard Ar len, is the story of that famous band of outlaws who terrorized the Idaho country in the days of its settlement. Eugene Pallette and Jack Holt are cast in character parts that are excellent vehicles to show their ability. * * * Deep Sea Story at Ilex "The Sea Bat,” story of south ern pearl and sponge divers, which opens at the Fox Hex theater to day for three days, has as its cast Kaquel Torres, Charles Bickford, Nils Asther, and George F. Mar ion. It deals with the adventures of a group of divers both above and below the water, and the thrilling romances of these people furnish the plot for the absorbing tale. * * * Jeanne Eagels to Appear "Jealousy,” the last picture Jeanne Eagels made before her death, has been procured for an early showing at the Colonial the ater. The film is said to be a stark drama equal in tragic in tensity to her magnificent “The Letter.” Unusual Pictures Included In Photographs Of Exhibit Photographic Art Sulon Displays Work at Art Buihling Scenery, machinery, people, streets, sea, and many others com prise a long list of beautiful pho tographs. Some of the facial expressions caught by the camera now on dis play in the museum of the art gal lery are very good in some of the pictures, and show volumes of character, life, and study. Several of these studies are not of beauti ful or even medium good-looking men and women. Some of them are doubtless of the lower classes. One child study of two orphans is so pathetic that it almost makes you cry, so well is the story told by the picture. Another, a pretty girl eating an apple, is a joyous one. The treatment of modern ma chinery by the camera was gener ally one of beauty attained by a softening effect of the lens used. These were very impressive, be cause modern machinery is not thought of as being beautiful. Street scenes, traffic, “Sunshine alley,” and others of buildings, granite, columns, and others illus trate this point of beauty in the now common things of life about us. The photographers of this ex hibit, the Pacific International Salon of Photographic Art, seemed to have taken portions of every day life as the scenes they wished to photograph. Many of these they have taken only portions and mag nified minor details in the pic ture by close-ups. This is espec ially true in some of the machin ery pictures. Landscapes form another dis tinct group of the exhibit. They are mostly softened by the lens as were the machinery and street pic tures. There were several sand dunes and beach pictures, and one or two field and woods photo graphs; all of which are very beautiful.” The exhibit will be here until the 20th of this month. The hours, on week-days are: 8-12; and 1-4:30. On Sundays the museum is ppen from 2 to 0 in the after noon.

Lee Dukes Eugene’s Most Exclusive Grille Ella Redkey to Lead Women Hikers on Trip to the Braes * Hike To Give Girls Chance To Win Points for WAA Sweater “Hiking days are here again,” or a similar parody might be sung by the girls attending the W. A. A. hike Saturday morning, when they leave from their meeting place at the Gerlinger building, on a, trek to the Braes which is more than a five-mile trip. Miss Ella Redkey, junior in phy sical education, from Klamath F’alls, who is head of the hiking for the women’s sports this year, announced that the meeting would take place at 8:30 o’clock in the morning, and that the hikers could either bring their lunches or not, as they desired. Miss Margaret Duncan of the faculty is the ad viser for hiking and Miss Marian Clark assists Miss Redkey. Points Given W. A. A. points may be won for hiking at the rate of 50 points for 70 miles and 100 points for 140 miles. Less than 50 points or more than 100 will not be counted in a year. In order to earn these points p girl must have a 3.5 grade av erage. If her average is lower than that, she may still attend the hikes, but not receive points. A member of the W. A. A. must attend all individual hikes and the trip must be more than five miles in order to count for points. Hike to Peters Podge Plans are being made for an over-night hike to Peters lodge the latter part of this month. A card will be placed on the bulletin board in the Gerlinger building, so that girls making this jaunt may sign. However, for the usual Saturday hike, it will not be necessary to sign before going. The party will leave Saturday evening for the lodge and return Sunday morning. Each member is to bring her own food for the trip. Those girls interested in hiking as a sport are requested to add their name to a list of 51 who have signed on the hiking notice posted in the side entrance of the Ger linger building. Youngest Campus Debuante Refuses Emerald Intervieiv One of Eugene's more prominent sub-debutantes gave an Emerald reporter the gate yesterday after noon. Not that she refused to see the reporter. As she measures something like “1-foot-ll” in her stocking feet and tips the scales at a doughty 12 pounds, she could n’t very well refuse. But she used subtle tactics, fa miliar to those among more po lite circles given to ignoring the bourgeoisie. The sub-deb is Miss Joan Adams, now one month and 1C days old, and she was visited at the home of her parents, the Rev. and Mrs. Max Adams, at Westminster house. “Do you find this college life amusing?’’ we asked Joan, think ing this would put us on a chummy basis. Joan, who was reclining in a green cradle in her green nursery, merely grabbed her thumb. “Well, what are your particular interests these days?’’ She did not even produce a rattle. “What do you think of the rain?” She yawned and snuggled down on a pillow about the size of a pin-cushion. The freeze-out was getting too apparent so the re porter prepared to leave. “We'll call on you again some day,” we told Joan brightly as she dropped off to sleep. Mr. and Mrs. Adams’ new daughter can claim to be the youngest campus resident and she has had more visitors in the few weeks of her life than most folks have in a year. Her father is the University pas tor. CONCERT BANDS WILL REPLACE SYMPHONIES (Continued from rape One) as any European bands. As wind bands, the American and English organizations are better because they do not resort to stringed in struments as many of the conti nental bands do. The finest trom bone and baritone players are Eng lish. While the orchestra has virtual ly reached the height of its devel opment the band is only well be gun and, with the prospect of bet ter instruments and satisfactory music, has a great future, he be lieves. Mr. Stehn has commenced his second year as band director here. Davidson With Church Lorin Davidson, who is studying for his master’s degree under Ar thur Boardman, is to have charge of the music at the First Chris tian church, beginning this Sun day, it was announced at the church offices yesterday.

Present System , Of Donut Sports Will Be Retained Expansion of Intramural Program Is Planned In Future It was decided definitely by a meeting of athletic representatives from the various living organiza tions to retain the present system of intramural competition this year, and until the system has been expanded to include a much greater program of intramural athletics. The meeting was held yesterday afternoon at the men’s gym, and drew a fair turnout of fraternity and dormitory repre sentatives. Paul R. Washke, Jack Hewitt, and E. E. Bouchey of the physical education staff attended. Mr. Washke, who has had con siderable experience with intra mural sport.s in the East, is desir ous of establishing a large num ber of intramural leagues, which would include teams from various schools of the University as well as several squads from each living organization. With this number competing, Mr. Washke advocates dividing independent organizations, school teams, and fraternities with separate schedules—the winners competing for the University title if they so wish. However, Mr. Washke deems it unwise to estab lish that system this year because of the few teams competing and the fact that the intramural sys tem here is still in its early stages. He hopes to build up a program that will rival the extensive activ ities of Midwest and Eastern uni versities. E. E. Bouchey, wno will super vise intramural basketball, an nounced that entries were due Oc tober 24, and play would begin the first of the month. Teams may practice in the gym and igloo by making the necessary arrange ments with the physical education and athletic authorities.
