Harris Works on
‘Holiday’ Settings
Staging of Play Will Take
Much Technical Skill
The settings for “Holiday,”
which is to be presented on Novem
ber 19, 20, and 21, are now under
construction in the theatre work
shop, Fred Harris announced yes
terday. For this modern comedy
ol American youth it is necessary
] to present two interiors in the
home of a wealthy New York busi
: ness man. Mr. Harris has so de
, signed the sets as to give an im
! pression of spaciousness to the
Guild theatre stage, which is about
one-half the size of a normal stage.
“Its limited area greatly' in
I creases the problem of production
for the stage designer, the direc
tor, and the actors,” he explained.
“To give a semblance of free, easy
movement without actually cover
| irig more than 18 inches is not
easy. When eight or ten charac
ters are involved for any length of
time even a half inch often be
comes precious.”
The stage crew committees
working under Mr. Harris are as
I follows: scenery, Norbert Jallings,
j Cathryn Snapp, Myrtle McDaniel;
lights, Rosmund Strieker; and
properties, Addison Brockman and
Gwendolyne Foss.
Student Music Managers
Announced by Joe Freck
Appointments for student music
managers were announced yester
day by Joe Freck, senior music
manager.
“All junior managers this year
have been selected from men not
participating in the musical activ
ity itself. It has been found that
! those who do not play in the mu
sic organization for which they are
selected as managers can devote
more time to their work, and con
sequently, prove to be better man
agers," he stated.
Following are the appointments:
Robert T. Miller, manager of the
University orchestra; Jack Stipe,
manager of the Men's Glee club;
George Vaughn, manager of the
women’s Glee club; and Carson

Hodge Questions
Newspaper Story
—
Cliiltl Couldn’t Be Brought
Up hy Baboons
"A child live among baboons?
Not likely!” said Dr. Edwin T.
Hodge, professor of geology, when
questioned regarding his opinion
of a news story published a few
| days ago, that a baby had been
kidnaped by a troup of baboons
and brought up as one of them.
"In the first place I doubt if a
human child could live on baboon
milk,” continued Dr. Hodge. “But
even- if he could there is another
point that seems more improbable
still. When a baboon is two years
old he is almost mature. He is ca
pable of swinging through trees
at a dizzy pace. A two-year-old
child would still be in the helpless
stage, but it is likely he would be
abandoned before he reached that
age. It might be possible for such
a thing to happen, but it seems
very unlikely.”
Speaking of College Bands
The Trojan band of the Univer
sity of Southern California takes
the lead on the Pacific coast with
150 playing members. Its colorful
uniforms and "bag of stunts” have
evoked considerable comment this
season. The Washington State
band has increased its member
ship from 50 to 100, and is wear
ing the new type uniforms design
ed last year.
Mothers Learn of
Oregon Problems
Course of Study Is Given
To Parents
Oregon mothers are now study
ing an outline prepared by Dr.
Arnold Bennett Hail, president of
the University, dealing with the
problems and policies of the Uni
versity. Dr. Hall, accompanied by
his secretary, Mrs. Paul W. Ager;
Dean Alfred Powers of the exten
sion division; Mrs. Walter M. Cook,
president of the Oregon Mothers;
Mrs. F. W. Bond, vice-president,
and Mrs. J. F. Hill, president of
the Portland division of mothers,
made a tour of the state this sum
mer to talk to the mothers' organ
izations and present this syllabus.
The syllabus was compiled by
Dr. Ralph Casey, professor of jour
nalism on the campus last year;
Dr. E. S. Conklin, head of the psy
chology department; Dr. C. V.
Boyer, head of the English depart
ment; Dr. John F. Bovard, dean of
the school of physical education,
and Dr. H. R. Taylor, associate ,
professor of psychology.
It is made up of ten parts, each
constituting a lesson which the
mothers are studying this winter.
Lesson one, written by Dr. Hall, is
an explanation of the ideals and
aims of the University. Lesson two
is on personnel work; the third, on
lower division organization and the
advisory system; the fourth, hon
ors courses and opportunities for
gifted students; the fifth, living
conditions and influences; the
sixth, personality training, and the
seventh, training for vocations.
The last three, written by Dr. Hall,
deal with research, adult education,
and relation of the University and
state.
There are now fourteen mothers’
divisions that have developed since
the founding of the state organi
zation three years ago. These
mothers not only study for them
selves the problems and policies of
the University and student life, but
make definite plans to inform
mothers of prospective college stu
dents about the University.
