Play Offers New Dramatic Talent In ‘Twelfth Night’ Eleven Students Will Make Debut in Shakespeare Drama Saturday Eleven people who have not ap peared heretofore in campus dra matics have roles in Shakespeare’s “Twelfth Night,” to be given at Guild theatre, February 21, 23, 24, and 25. * Ralph Engberg, who transferred from Stanford last term, a senior in pre-medics, plays the part of Antonio, a sea-captain who rescues Sebastian from shipwreck and be comes his friend and protector. Howard Ragan, sophomore in for eign trade plays a similar part and aids Viola to disguise herself and become the Duke’s servant. Eldon Woodin, freshman in art, appears as Valvolio, steward to Olivia, the target for the pranks of the rest of the household. James Hughes, sophomore in economics, is Fabian, another of Olivia’s ser vants of a more ribald character, who aids in making life miserable for Malvolio. The other newcomers are: Har old Batchelor, as Curio, servant to the Duke; Max Kaffesieder and Stanley Elliott, sailor friends of Viola; Robert Loomis and Burton Long, as officers who arrest An tonio; James Henderson, a cour tier; and Russell Cook as a priest. Several of the actors who have been seen before have new types of roles in “Twelfth Night.” Nor ma Jacobs, who usually plays com edy, is cast as the lovely and ro mantic countess. Gene Love plays the dissolute uncle of Olivia with the aid of generous padding. Charles Jones, plays Sir Andrew, a Don Juan in his own mind, but merely offensive to Olivia whose love he seeks. Donald Confrey, plays the jester, Feste, and Jean Williams has the part of Maria, Olivia’s woman who shares in the revivals of Sir Toby, Andrew, and Fabian. Nancy Thielsen as Viola and Ad dison Brockman as Sebastian are cast as twins. Carl Klippel, who played Johnnie Case in Holiday, again has a lead in the part of the Duke. FROM PRESIDENT’S PEN Press of Administrative Detail Does Not Give Pres. Hall Opportunity He Would Like To Meet Students GREETING TO THE STUDENTS It is with genuine gratitude that I take advantage of the generous offer of the Emerald to publish a daily communication from me to the students of the University. The two handicaps inherent in my po sition that I regret the most are that the press of administrative detail makes it impossible for me to know in the intimate way that I should like the faculty and the student body. I therefore welcome this opportunity to say a few words daily to the students that I am trying to serve. For in the last analysis the ultimate purpose of the University under my adminis tration is to give the student body the best that is humanly possible in intellectual training, in spiritual understanding, and in the develop ment of high ideals and noble char acter. I will hope from time to time to set for certain ideas about student life and student problems that I hope will be helpful and stimulat ing to student thought. But I want to say to the students now what I have always said at the begin ning of my classes when I was teaching—that the purpose of my communications is not to get the students to think as I think, for I shall be very happy if I can get them to thinking at all and doubly pleased if I can get them to think- 1 ing intelligently, honestly, and con structively. This would be a weary, worthless world if we all thought alike, for great thoughts, new dis coveries, and inspiring ideals are I more likely to come out of the j clash of honest opinions and the impact of honest judgments that differ than out of a unanimous agreement, which would be possi (Continued on Page Three), Oregon Beats Idaho 33 to 27 In Rough Game 34 Fouls Are Called During Wild Contest at Igloo; 3 Men Ejected Teams Will Meet Tonight At 7:30; Horner and Eberliart Star By BRUCE HAMBY In a wild, rough ' basketball game which was featured by 34 called fouls, the Oregon hoop squad won their first game on the home floor last night, when they edged out the University of Idaho Vandals, 33 to 27. The two teams will meet again tonight at 7:30. Oregon grabbed the lead soon after the start, when “Stymie” Dolp sank a free throw. Drum mond, Vandal guard, gave the vis itors a short lead by sinking a field goal, only to have Jean Eberhart sink three baskets one after the other to put Oregon in the lead, 7 to 2. Horner and Eberhart con tributed every point for Oregon in the first half, except for Dolp’s foul conversion and Stevens’ field goal. The score at half-time was 20 to 12 in favor of the Webfoots. Many Fouls Called Bobby Morris and Ralph Cole man, officials, were evidently out to earn their pay, for they started calling fouls in earnest at the start of the second period. Eberhart and Horngr, for Oregon, and Hale, Idaho, were forced out on four personals. Of the 34 fouls called, 30 of which were personals and 4 technicals, the two teams con verted 24. Idaho tried vainly to cut down the Webfoot lead during the last canto, but the closest they could get was 32 to 27, just before the gun sounded. Aukett, center, and Barrett, forward, led the Vandals in their offensive. As the end of the fray neared, both teams re sorted to rough and tumble flay ing with the referees calling fouls right and left. Practically half the time was spent in picking up players from the floor, and giving out free throws. Eberhart High Scorer Jean Eberhart was high point man with 12 markers. He was closely followed by Barrett and Aukett, for the visitors, who tal lied 10 apiece. Cliff Horner, Web foot guard, showed exceptional ability in checking.

Davis, who spoke before the Wesley foundation | group Sunday evening on the topic “Why Christianity?” “The miracles, the belief in im mortality, the golden rule, the Man God, none of these are unique, as all religious history presents in cidents of these things,” Mr. Da vis said. “Surveys that have been conducted show that the belief in God is the only thing that Christ ians agree on,” Mr. Davis contin ued. Mr. Davis summarized the be liefs and doctrines of all of the eleven major religions, showing qualities of Christianity that were found in all of them. Big Shots for Webfoots l 1 ¥-
