Program of Series
Kappas To Start Evening,
Followed by Kappa
Sigs, A. B. C.’s
Controls of station KORE will
be switched to the College Side
Inn for the first time this year at
5:30 tomorrow night when the sec
ond Emerald-KORE radio contest
will get under way. Kappa Kappa
Gamma will be the first to step up
to the microphone with its talent,
and this group will be followed by
^ the Kappa Sigs and Alpha Beta
Chi entertainers immediately. Chi
Omega, scheduled for the initial
program, will not appear tomorrow
night due to a change in arrange
ments.
Lois Conover is house represen
tative for the Kappas, and although
she has announced no definite pro
gram for tomorrow night, it is very
probable that the well-known Kap
pa trio, composed of Janet Thach
er, Betty Hudson, and Lois Cono
ver, will offer several selections.
Connie Baker, blues singer, is an
other likely Kappa headliner.
Kappa Sigs Plan Skit
Something entirely unexpected
and original has been concocted by
Kappa Sigma. Freeman Young,
house radio representative for the
Kappa Sigs, refused last night to
make any of the plans of their
program known for publication.
“Slug” Palmer, radio veteran, will
undoubtedly have an active part in
the program.
Nels Nelson, representative for
y Alpha Beta Chi, stated yesterday
that an orchestra was being or
ganized to represent his house. Leo
Lohikoski, violinist, will also be
featured.
Five judges will be listening in
on this first contest broadcast, and,
with their grade sheets and gen
eral directions close at hand, will
start the work of determining the
grand winner which will be an
nounced in the middle of March.
Programs will be judged on a ba
sis of 100 points. Twenty-five
points will be awarded to original
ity, continuity, diversification, and
sustaining interest in the program,
respectively.
Judges Kept Secret
Judges for the contest will not
be announced until the close of the
program, but it is understood that
all are well qualified for the re
sponsibility of grading the broad
casts, and will conduct the work in
an unprejudiced manner .
^ Negotiations are still under way
’ with several large eastern compan
ies as well as local business houses
that the best prizes available may
be secured for the contest, and it is
expected that a list of the prizes
can be issued early next week.
Art Potwin, director of the radio
contest, offered a bit of advice last
night to competing houses with the
following statement: “There is no
rule prohibiting all houses in the
contest from listening in and get

Rehearsals for
‘Twelfth Night’
To Begin Monday
Excellent Cast Is Picked
From Large Number
Of Tryouts
By ISABELLE CROWELL
“Twelfth Night” will go into re
hearsal with a meeting of the en
tire cast at 8 in Guild theatre on
Monday night. An excellent cast
has been chosen from the large
number who tried out. It includes
many who have not appeared be
fore in campus productions and is
as follows: Orsino, Duke of Illyria,
Carl Klippel; Sebastian, brother of
Viola, C. Addison Brockman; An
tonio, a sea captain, friend of Se
.bastian, Ralph Engberg; a sea cap
tain, friend to Viola, Howard Ra
gan; Valentine and Curio, gentle
men attending on the -duke, Har
vey Welch and Harold Batchelor;
Sir Toby Belch, uncle of Olivia,
Gene Love; Sir Andrew Ague
cheek, Charles Jones; Malvolio,
steward of Olivia, Eldon Woodin;
Fabian and Feste, servants of
Olivia, James Hughes and Donald
Confrey; Olivia, a rich countess,
Norma Jacobs; Viola, in love with
the duke, Nancy Thlelsen; Maria,
Olivia’s woman, Jean Williams;
first sailor, Max Kaffisieder; sec
ond sailor, Stanley Elliott; third
sailor, Ethan Newman; first cour
tier, Edwin Cruikshank; first offi
cer, Robert Loomis; second officer,
Burton Long; priest, Russel Cook.
Nancy Thielsen, the Linda of
“Holiday,” will play Viola, one of
the two romantic women's roles.
It is the shipwrecked Viola who
seeks her fortune as a page in the
court of the Duke Orsino.
Carl Klippel, who played the
clear-headed and modern Johnnie
Case in “Holiday” will be the ro
mantic Orsino, who, languishing
in unrequited love for Olivia, sur
rounds himself with soft music and
color, until his discovery that his
favorite page is really a lovely
girl.
Addison Brockman will appear
once more, as Nancy’s brother,
playing Sebastian to her Viola,
this time presumably her twin
brother. Norma Jacobs is playing
a romantic role for the first time.
She has usually been cast for com
edy but will this time play the
Countess Olivia, while tiny Jean
Williams, who has often played
children’s parts, is to do the lively
and mischievous Maria—chief lady
in-waiting upon the countess.
Donald Confrey, the Nick of
“Holiday” will be Feste, the court
jester, while Charles Jones as An
drew Aguecheek will combine with
Gene Love as Sir Toby, and James
Hughes as Fabian, to keep up the

More Jobs Than Applicants
For Store Personnel Work
That personnel work in large de
partment stores is one of the few
vocations for women in which there
are not more applicants than there
^ are positions was the declaration
of Miss Florence Ruby, personnel
director of Olds, Wortman, and
King, when interviewed Friday.
Miss Ruby was the speaker at the
A. W. S. mass meeting Thursday,
talking on “Vocations Open to Wo
men.”
Many requirements are made of
the personnel worker daily, Miss
Ruby said. The director in a large
store is in charge of training all
employees, from the least import
ant cashier and wrapper to the as
sistant buyers. She directs all
social work, which includes any
form of entertainment for the em
ployees, and more especially so
ciological problems such as those
which arise from improper or un
happy home conditions. .This is an
mportant part of the work, accord
ing to Miss Ruby, since the em
ployers believe that a girl can not
work as efficiently if she is ham
pered by outside worries. These
conditions are investigated by the
personnel department and an at
tempt is made to alleviate or rem
edy them.
Another part of the work is that
of supervising all discipline. The
director sees that all employees
comply with the dress standards
cf the store, and gives talks on per
sonal appearance. This work re
j quires a great deal of tact and dis
| cretion in order to be successful,
! Miss Ruby added.
The director also teaches em
ployees the use of the cash regis
ter, and she watches the errors
/hich are made by individual work
ers both with the cash registers
and with sales slips. In case the

up for the women's contest, and
Kappa Sigma and Phi Sigma
Kappa had signified intention of
entering house quartets.

ensembles will sing for the judge
follow:
Women’s sextets: “On the
Steppe,” Gretchaninoff; "Beaute
ous Morn," German . “The Linden
Tree,” Schubert-Dana; and “Lift
Thine Eyes,” Mendelssohn.
Men's quartets: “Bird Songs at
Eventide,” Coates; “Lo, How a
Hose E’er Blooming,” Praetonius;
“Ride Out on Wings of Song,”
Berwall; and "Wait Till I Put on
My Crown,” Reddick.
There is a possibility that in ad
dition to these numbers, compet
ing groups will be allowed to sing
one number of their own selec
tion.
Complete sets of music for these
songs may be obtained through
Mrs. Emilienne Roach, of the voice
department of the music school.
Must Name Singers
Every women’s house or hall
entering will be required to name
six singers and three alternates,
and the men’s houses must name
four singers and four alternates.
The cups, which arct to be known
as the “Polyphonic Trophies,” will
be retained by any organization
which has won one of them three
times. An annual audition will be
held in May.
Each ensemble will be allowed
to have an accompanist, but the
accompanist may not in any man
ner direct their performance. They
may also obtain coaching from

staff, provided he or she is prop
erly reimbursed for his or her
time.
Further information may be ob

Takes Thriller
By 32-30 Score
5ee-Snw Battle Finds U. O.
Loser by One Basket
At Finish
^inee Dolp Hits Net for 15
Points To Lead Men
In Scoring
By VINCENT GATES
A flashy band of sophomore
loopsters from the State College
>f Washington, who call them
lelves Cougars, but ought to be
:alled ‘'Comets,” nosed out the
Oregon Webfoot cagers by one
one basket, to win a thrilling see
law battle by a 32-30 score at Mc
\rthur court last night.
Shooting with the accuracy or
i Chicago gunner, Vince Dolp,
Vebfoot forward, rang the hoop
’or 15 points to lead the individual
icoring of the game. With the
scoreboard never showing more
;han a four-point difference, Billy
Reinhart’s Ducks sped up and
lown the floor with heretofore un
seen action and shooting. The
dever passing sophomore quint of
W. S. C„ led by Gordon, their in
vincible center, scattered the Web
Foot defense with long shots that
hit the net, and then proceeded
to dribble in for short set-ups.
Lead at Half
At half time, the crimson Cou
gars—and gentlemen of color too,
these brilliantly arrayed boys
from the wind-swept corner of
Washington—led the Oregonians
16-14, the margin of victory. Not
for long, though, for the persistent
Dolp came through with a short
shot in front of the basket to tie
the score. And then the see-saw
battle waged again. Washington
State stepped out in front after
Dolp had sunk a free throw for
Oregon and Gordon tossed one in
for the Cougars.
Dolp, Holsten Score
Holsten, one of those second
year lads, began playing a game
with Dolp for scoring honors. Hol
stcn dropped in a long one, and
Dolp followed with a similar shot.
Holsten sank another and then
Gordon made a free toss. Billy
Keenan, with a newly found mon
iker “field mouse,” came in the
game and sank a long shot. The
score swayed back and forth with
Holsten and Cross finding the! bas
ket for the Cougars and Dolp,
Levoff and Keenan retaliating for
the Webfoots.
Stevens Sinks Long One
With a minute to play, the Cou
gar quint found an opening for a
free throw and a field goal to take
a safe lead. An attempt at keep
away ensued, but Kerm Stevens
sank a long one from an almost
inconceivable distance after Dolp
and Keenan had shot at random
for a much-needed basket. The
game ended with the invading
Cougars carrying off a hard
found win.

Northern team is fearing and who

Milstein Borroivs Violin for
First Appearance in Berlin
What Alexander the Great was
in military circles of the fourth
century, B. C., Nathan Milstein
seems to be in the musical world
of the 20th qentury A. D.
This young Russian violinist, who
is to appear in concert at McAr
thur court next Wednesday eve
ning under the auspices of the as
sociated students, is 'tonly 26 years
old, and has but six years on the
concert stage behind him, yet he is
considered to be one of the half
dozen greatest violinists in the
world, and is internationally rec
ognized as a musician of near
genius.
His Eugene appearance consti
tutes the second concert on the
series of five being sponsored this
winter by the A. S. U. O., and will
be free to members of the student
body.
His life is the story of an artist
who started from scratch and by
sheer force of brilliance rose to
high rank in a very short time. In
1924 he left Russia and went to
Berlin. When he arrived in the
German capital, he did not even
have his violin. He borrowed one
for his first concerts. All through
the long, dark years of the Russian
Revolution he had managed to con
tinue his practice and playing and
gave constantly increasing promise
of bearing out the predictions that
the teachers of his childhood had
made for him.
And his first Berlin appearance
definitely established him as one
of the first talents of the new gen
eration. From there he went to
Paris, and repeated his success.
Since then he has toured all of
Europe three times, as well as
South America. He is now on his
second American tour.
Milstein is particularly brilliant
as a soloist with full orchestra, a
characteristic which has won him
