The ballroom was so crowded that j collegiate dancing became a fine I art. The feature of the dance was : the Kwarna pledging which took place late in the evening. Nineteen girls were taken in, a line being formed in the lobby and filing through the ballroom between an arch made by the members of Skull and Daggers, sophomore honorary for men. Mrs. Nelson Macduff, assistant dean of women, was made an honorary member, and was taken in by her daughter, Betty Ann. The real, honest-to-goodness fea ture of the evening, however, was the dating proposition. The women took the men and paid all of the bills, but by the end of the evening were somewhat tired of “wearing the trowsers," what with opening and closing doors, holding heavy overcoats, and trying to satiate a masculine appetite (we realize that the men would doubt the validity of this implication). Dorothy Eberhard was chairman for the dance. She was assisted by Kathryn Langenberg Colin, Mil dred McGee, Daphne Hughes, Bess Templeton, and Margaret Cum mings, all members of Mortar Board. The guests of honor for the event were: Dr. and Mrs. Arnold Bennett Hall, Dr. and Mrs. Charles Leslie Schwering, Dean and Mrs. Hugh L. Biggs, Mrs. Nelson F. Macduff, Miss Consuello McMillan, Dr. and Mrs. E. E. DeCou, and Miss Beatrice Milligan. * •+ # Cyril Igoe and Day Foster Engaged Another engagement which is of especial interest to campus society is that of Miss Cyril Igoe and Day Day Foster Foster, which | was anno unced Sunday morning at a breakfast and bridge party at the home of the bride-elect.

Upper News Staff Named for Men’s Issue of Emerald Robert Allen Selected for Post of Associate Editor Masculine effort at superiority j in journalism was a step nearer its goal last night with the ap pointment of the upper news staff for the annual men’s edition of the Emerald.

Colonial — Mary Pickford in “Kiki.” Heilig — Romberg and Ham merstein’s operetta, “Vien nese Nights.” McDonald — Norma Shearer in “Strangers May Kiss.” State—“Under Suspicion,” and “Second Wife.” Norma Shearer at McDonald When Ursula Parrott wrote “The Divorcee” and it was made into such a delightful vehicle for Norma Shearer, some doubted if there ever might be such an ideal ly cast picture again, but it seems that Ursula Parrott must have had the Shearer in mind when she wrote "Strangers May Kiss,” which comes to the McDonald to day for the rest of the week. In addition to Miss Shearer, Rob ert Montgomery, Neil • Hamilton, Irene Rich, Marjorie Rambeau, are in the cast. “Kiki” Closes Today This is your last chance to see Mary Pickford do the hoyden to a fare-thee-well in “Kiki,” playing at the Colonial theatre. Supported by Reginald Denny, she enacts the story of an irre pressible madcap in love with a musical show owner. Much of her acting is to the point, but the story is an impossible one in this treat 9 S for everything you need in Paints Brushes Artist’s Supplies Picture Frames etc. 55 West Broadway PHONE 749 ment. Her cast is entirely unex citing. Why does the Colonial al low their shorts to sag to such a low level. The latest irritant is the continued use of idiotic car toons that beg everyone to sing. None ever do. Heilig Has Operetta Eugene's most colorful show of the season is “Viennese Nights.” now showing at the Heilig theatre. By all means see it. The photog raphy is better than we have ever seen as combined with technicolor.
