given at the music auditorium next
Sunday afternoon by the Univer

eleventh consecutive year that a
University chorus has presented
Gounod’s beaut iful mass at
Christmas time under the baton of
Mr. Evans.
This is the fourth year with the
glee clubs, formerly known as the

were featured soloists two years
ago when the choir went to Port
land for a concert with the Port
land Symphony orchestra.
In the “St. Cecilia” Miss Thiel
sen will sing the soprano roles;
Fisher the baritone, and Eva the
tenor.
The performance, which will
take the place of the usual Sun

tobacco?
Most PRINCETON
men smoke—
IF you walk along Prospect Street
in Princeton you’ll notice how
many men load their pipes from
the familiar blue Edgeworth tin.
At Senior Singing on the steps of
Nassau Hall this spring the pipes
will glow with Edgeworth.
A pipe and Edgeworth—this is
the Bmoking combination that has
won the college man. Yale, Dart

... all agree with Princeton.
College men everywhere respond
to the appeal of pipes—packet! with

Oregon Banquet
Held in Bay City
Affair Attended by Alumni
And Former Students
About 125 Oregon alumni and
former students living in the San
Francisco bay district were pres
ent at the Oregon banquet which
was held last Wednesday evening,
November 2(1, at the William Tay
lor hotel in San Francisco, accord
ing to Miss Jeannette Calkins, al
umni secretary, who, with her as
sistant, Miss Peggy Boyer, was in
California for the affair.
The guests of honor at the din
ner were Dr. C. W. Spears, foot
ball coach at the University, Ju
lius Meier, governor-elect of Ore
gon, and Mrs. Meier. Among oth
ers invited were Hugh Rosson"
graduate manager, Mrs. Rosson,
Sam Wilderman, director of the
A. S. U. O. news bureau and Mrs.
Wilderman. David L. McDaniels,
class of ’12, acted as toastmaster,
and Mr. Meier, Dr. Spears, and Mr.
Rosson addressed the group.
Miss Calkins told of an Oregon

Series of Lectures Set
To Open Monday Evening
The first of a series of lectures

have as its speaker Dr. Wilbur M.

will take place next Monday eve
ning, December 8, at 8 o’clock in
alumni hall of Gerllnger building,
according to Dr. H. Cl. Townsend,
professor of philosophy.
STILLMAN SUGGESTS
DIFFERENT NAME
(Continual from Cope One)
eradication of trouble encountered
The standards as set by the
tests also enable the professors to
check upon their own efforts. If
a large number of students are not
coming up to the standards that
the tests show them capable of do
ing. the professor, by careful in
vestigation is able to determine
where the weakness in his teach
ing may lie and thus be enabled to
correct the fault.
Professor Stillman picked out a
name at random from the scores
earned by a student in his various
aptitude tests, including the busi
ness ad test. The scores earned by
the student in all the tests were
far below the average; upon turn
ing to the files it was found that
the student had withdrawn from
school. Another name was chosen
that showed an above-the-average
rating, but the records also showed
that during high school he had
done only moderately well; a
Check upon his business adminis
tration work showed him doing
two-plus work, indicating that
while he had not applied himself
in high schi>ol, he was actually ca
pable of doing far above the aver
age work in the field for which he
lius an aptitude.

Awarding of Nobel Prize to
Lewis Not Considered Insult
"I do not agree with Dr. Henry
Van Dyke. The awarding of the
No'oel prize for literature is not,
in my opinion, an insult to Amer
ica,” said S. Stephenson Smith, as
sociate professor of English, when
asked for his opinion of the state
ment of the Princeton university
man who said, “The award of the
Nobel prize to the author of ‘Main
Street,’ ‘Elmer Gantry,’ ’Arrow
smith,' and the rest of those novels
that scoff at America and its tra
ditions is an insult.”
“The Swedish judges,” continued
Professor Smith, “recognized in
Lewis’ books the America they be
lieve is typical but which is in
reality only the surface appear
ance of American small towns- a
very satirized and mimicked rep
resentation.
"A committee of American crit
ics,” he continued, “would prob
ably have selected either Willa
Cather or Theodore Dreiser as the
"most outstanding. But neither
Willa Cather's moving nor Drei
ser’s solid style are so adapted to
translation as Lewis’. It is rather
j difficult to transfer either Dreiser
, or Cather to another language,
but satire is effective in any lan
guage and Lewis is without peer
as a satirist and mimic. He sets
! out to make fun of, sneer at tra
ditions, and he certainly does a
, yeoman job of it.”
A four-line piece of doggerel
| verse from Professor Smith’s book,
“Craft of the Critic," which will
be published soon by Thomas Y.
Crowell company, best illustrates
Professor Smith’s idea of the type
of subject selected by Lewis:
“Tin can alley back of Main
street,
j Symbol of our small town cul
ture,
Run by women, clubs, and
churches
| And by Business, that Stuffed
Vulture. ’
WHAT SHOW TONIGHT?
Heilig -“Escape,” with Gerald
Du Maurier. Drama.
Colonial—“Anybody's Woman,”
with Ruth Chatterton.
Drama.
McDonald—“The B i g Trail.”
Drama.
Galsworthy Play at Heilig
“Escape,” one of the most pop
ular play3 from the pen of John
Galsworthy, England’s most fa
mous litterateur, has been made
into a talking picture. Its first
showing is scheduled for today at
the Heilig theatre.
The script in play form was pre
sented last season by the Guild
Theatre Players, with Arthur Gray
and Nancy Thielsen in the lead
parts. With Gerald Du Maurier,
stage star, in the leading role as
the prisoner, the movie treatment
does justice to Galsworthy.
* * *
Chatterton at Colonial
Ruth Chatterton wears two wigs
in “Anybody's Woman,” current
attraction at the Colonial theatre
today and tomorrow. The wigs
tell their own story of her trans
formation of character in the de
velopment of the film story. One
of the wigs is “peroxide blonde,”
\ which she wears when she is a
cheap little social outcast, and the
other is the properly cut and hued
hair of a woman of culture and
respectability. Clive Brook is co
starred with her in the produc
tion.
McDonald Show Impressive
“The Big Trail,” playing at the
McDonald theatre today, is one of
the finest epics yet filmed. Seeing
its extraordinary photographic ef
fects is like viewing magnificent
landscapes painted by great art
ists. One sees in the film the great
trek of the covered wagon to the
West coast, sees all the hardships,
the little humours, the great tragic
ironies that beset the pioneer.
Truly a great picture, made
greater than the “Covered Wagon"
by proportion, sound, and im
proved photographic artistry.

'Tradition and Modernism’
Topic for Lecture
Dr. Wilbur M. Urban, professor
of philosophy at Dartmouth col-!

first of a series of lectures provid- ■
ed by the committee on free intel-:
lectual activities taking place next
Monday evening, December 8, at
8 o'clock in alumni hall of Gerling
er building, according to Dr. H. G.
Townsend, chairman of the com
mittee which is sponsoring the lec
ture series.
"Tradition and Modernism” is*
the topic on which Dr. Urban will
speak. This subject should appeal
to all students of philosophy and
related subjects, such as literature
and social science, Dr. Townsend
believes.
This is the first of a series of
lectures provided under the new
arrangement, in which it is not the
purpose of the committee to draw
a large audience, including a num
ber of * uninterested people, but
rather it is believed that each lec
ture will attract the students and
faculty members that are especial
ly interested.
and associate member of the chap
ter, will speak on “Advertising As
pects of the Recent Consolidation
of the Register-Guard.”
Harry Van Dine, active member
ol the honorary, will be the other
speaker and will talk on “Outdoor
Advertising.” Van Dine won a
scholarship last summer and work
ed with the Foster and Kleiser
company in Portland.
A business meeting will precede
the speeches. All members and as
sociate members are requested to
be present.
Infirmary Rapidly Filling
Up; 7 Students Confined
After passing through a very
quiet period during the Thanks

yesterday rapidly filling up. There
were only two students confined
over the vacation, but yesterday
afternoon five more had been as
signed to the care of the Univer

predominant cause of confinement.
The students now at the infirm

STEPPING INTO A MODERN WORLD
6-ton reels of cable distributed
with the speed of perishable food
A carload of telephone poles laid down a thou
sand miles away within 36 hours after getting
the order! Rush calls of this sort must fre
quently be handled by Western Electric, dis
tributors for the Bell System.
But even more remarkable is the regular day
by day flow of telephone supplies. The Chicago
warehouse—one of 32 in the national system—
handles 1,400 orders a day. In 1929morethan
$400,000,000 worth of equipment and materials
was delivered to the telephone companies.
Distribution on so vast a scale presents many
interesting problems to bell System men. The
solutions they work out mean much in keep
ing this industry in step with the times.
The opportunity is there!
