Old Oregon Drafts
Calligraphist to
Aid in Campaign
An experienced handwriting ex
pert has been pressed into service
by the alumni office to assist in
the subscription campaign for Old
Oregon, alumni magazine. With
each check for a three-year sub
scription, Monsieur Qui, as the
graphologist prefers to be called,
will give an accurate and complete
character analysis of the writer.
There is no joker in the offer,
assures Miss Jeannette Calkins,
alumni secretary. Monsieur Qui
has made a study of handwriting
for years, she declares, and is fully
capable of giving a dependable
analysis.
Every alumnus has been in
formed that to take advantage of I
the offer he must send a sample |
of his handwriting on a full-size
sheet of paper. It must be writ-)
ten in ink and must be a copy of
something he has already written.
Because it is impossible to distin
guish sex by the handwriting, all j
applicants must designate the sex
on the sample.
Forensic Honorary Gives
Oregon Debate Mention
Debating at the University of
Oregon received its first mention
in the January issue of The Gavel,
official publication of Delta Sigma
Rho, honorary forensic society,
with the publication of an article
written by Walter E. Hempstead.
Mr. Hempstead, instructor in
English here and adviser of the Pa
cific Basin debate tour, describes
in his article what happens "When
a Debater Goes International.” He
points out the advantages to a de
bater of the international tours as
development of a sophisticated
viewpoint, improvement of speech
powers, and offer of great educa
tional opportunities. The article
also mentions Oregon as a pioneer
in the field of international debat
ing.
COPS, HALLYBOO AND
CAESAR. WIN HONORS
(Continued from Pape One)
And with this Julius Caesar
gasped his last breath to bring a
close to the freshman stunt,
awarded honorable mention. Mar
ion Bass as Caesar, Charlotte Eld
ridge as Brutus, and Betty Good
man as Portia gave representa
tion of what tlie freshman class
has in dramatic talent. The entire
cast of this skit, under the direc
tion of Bobby Bequeaith, was ex
cellent.
“Ouryre heroiynne lyttle Nelle
Wasynnt treeyted verye welle
And consequcntlye her hart dyd
swelle.
But alle thysse we will telle
In a dramatyque styelle.”
Such was the burden of the
sophomore stunt, “East Lynne, or
the Morning After the Night Be
fore,” directed by Helen Binford.
Best shot: Kuth Milligan as Nelle,
furiously examining neck to de
termine if she had broken it jump
ing off the precipice. She had.
“Whenever you're brushing
Your troubles fly;
When things keep a-rushing
Happiness is nigh.
Brush from your head to your
feet,
From the sink to the street,
For they cannot be beat.
Try our brushes!”
Connie Baker and Sally Addle
man crooned this and similar ap
propriate ditties as the seniors,
with Elizabeth Strain in charge,
presented “The Fuller Brush Man.”
Marion Camp as the frantic, per
sistent brush man, showed what
to do in a pinch. Toothbrushes,
hairbrushes, clothes brushes, scrub
brushes, eyebrow brushes, and
paint brushes came out to con
vince Beth Ann Johnson, college
freshman shining the door plate of
the sorority, that she must buy a
brush. Before the show was over,
she had succumbed to the wiles of
either the brushes or the not-to
be-frustrated salesman, and led a
merry procession into the house.
Costume prizes were awarded to
the Wizard of Ox group as first,
Jerry McGillicuddy as Tom Saw
yer, second, and Beatrice Simon
and Katherine Orme as tramps,
honorable mention. Members of
the Wizard of Ox group included
Dorothy Hindmarsh, Ruthalys
Lawrence, Miss Zona Owen, Alice
Morgan, Juanita Demmer, Kate
Cochran, Kuth Smith, Anna Marie
Friedrich, Louise Stein, Jean Len
nard, and Helen Campbell.

“Rebound” at the McDonald
He called himself “Truesdail,
the Great Lover.” When his fian
cee married eight millions, he mar
ried Sara (Ina Claire) “on the re
bound.” A month later, however,
he ate lunch with his old girl, Eve
(the great-eyed Myrna Loy), in
Paris, while his beautiful blonde
wife paced back and forth with
horrible visions of what might
have happened to keep him from
returning when he said he would.
He is so conceited you may not
care whether he comes to his sens
es or not, but Ina Claire's acting
is superb and moving. Johnny, the
real hero of the piece, doesn’t get
the breaks he deserves, but he
helps to develop the plot and does
I some good acting.
This is a picture well worth see
ing, with clever lines and a some
what better plot than usual.
“Suicide Fleet,” with a cast
composed of Bill Boyd, Robert
Armstrong, James Gleason and
others, is coming to the McDon
ald for a two-day run tomorrow.

“Secret Service,” at Heilig
Dix is once again with us, this
time in "Secret Service.” While
not up to the high standard of
some of his other films it does
have much to make it superior to
many current pictures.
The setting of the picture is in
Rihmond during the last stages of
the Civil war. Dix and William
Post Jr., are sent by the Union
forces into Richmond as; spies
where they encounter numerous
exciting events. Dix plays his part
in his usual style which is all right
for one or two pictures, but grows
tiresome after a time. Shirley
Grey, as a southerner’s daughter,
has acquired a somewhat novel
drawl in her speech but she puts
it over quite well.
The very plot and setting save
this film from oblivion; action is
fast and often times exciting with
an under-current of suspense which
adds greatly to its strength.
Sidney Fox at Colonial
“I’m not a baby,” wails Sydney
Fox as she kicks up and down on
Paul Lukas' bed, but even if she is,
she makes such a nice one that
Paul can't resist her and he tells
her that his affections for her are
“Strictly Dishonorable.” This very
gay tale of a little maid in big New
York is showing till Saturday at
the Colonial.

Brown at State
Joe E. Brown may be funny and
odd but at the State theatre he is
“Broadminded,” for today and to
morrow.
John Gilbert at Rex
“West of Broadway" is showing
at the Rex theatre today and to
morrow with a cast composed of
John Gilbert, Lois Moran and El
Brcndel.

The first of these tunes is in
slow, smooth rhythm, with a sweet
melody the kind that has become
so popular in the last few months
starts out with muted trumpet
and flute trio, also a new, popular
combination bass is prominent
rhythm in the tenor’s vocal chorus
is distinctive.
The second number is a little j
faster, but also in the smooth stylo t
the melody is good the same
type of stuff as in the other piece.
There is no particular feature
of orchestration to distinguish this
record, but the melodies are good,
and they’re easy to dance to. If
that’s what you want, this record
will fill the bill. Hear it.
It’s at White-Marlatt's.

It is rumored that the decision

“His writings and opinions are

Experienced Campus Talent
In Cast for "Journey’s End”
Eight of eleven members of the
cast for “Journey’s End,” which
opens tonight in Guild theatre, are
of the best known dramatic talent
on the campus. Leonard Dart, who
plays the lead in the play, was en
thusiastically received last quarter
when he appeared as the mad pian
ist in “Dulcy.” His voice and poise,
as remembered from this perform
ance, suit him particularly for this
rather tragic role. Dart also played
the part of the judge last year in
“Common Clay” and was presented
in the role of Sanky in a class mat
tinee of “Street Scene.”
Gene Love, who will play the
part of Lieutenant Osborne, a sec
ondary role, is a member of the
Guild hall players and has appeared
in campus and Eugene productions
for the last four years. Last year
he was excellent as Sir Toby Belch
in the fall production of “Twelfth
Night.” The year before he ap
peared in “Yellow Jacket” and dis
tinguished himself in the heavy
role of Captain in “Breaking of the
Calm,” a one act tragedy present
ed last fall term. He has also
played important parts in "God of
the Mountain;” “If I Were King;"
“Escape;” and several other cam
pus productions.
The characterization of Second
Lieutenant Raleigh will be carried
by Warren Craves who makes his
first appearance on the campus in
this production. He will be remem
bered, however, for his excellent
performance in the lead of the Lin
coln high school sea play which
won the drama tournament here
two years ago.
Ethan Newman, who has ap
peared before in “The Breaking of
the Calm” and “How Perfectly
Absurd,” presented last year, will
play the role of Captain Hardy.
Jack Stipe, another of the Guild
hall players, will appear as Second
Lieutenant Hibbert. Jack ap
peared before campus audiences
last year in the leading role of
“The Single Man,” and as Norman
Rose in ‘‘Hotel Universe. In “Dul
cy,” he player the publicity man to
an excellent advantage. Previous
ly he had appeared in “The Last of
Mrs. Cheyney;” “Common Clay;”
and “The Devil Comes to Alcarez.”
Another well-known campus ac
tor, who will be presented again
tomorrow night, is Walden Boyle,
as Second Lieutenant Trotter.
Boyle wa3 particularly outstand
ing in the role of Tom in “Hotel
Universe” last spring. He also ap
peared last year as the butler in
“Holiday” and as the husband in
"The Storm.”
Charles Shumaker, who will ap
pear as the company sergeant-ma
jor, carried the lead last year in
“Hearts Enduring,” a one-act play.
He also appeared very admirably
as the king in “Sir David Wears
a Crown.” Eldin Woodin, though
less experienced than some of the
other members of the cast, will be
remembered for his excellent part \ j
as Malvolio in "Twelfth Night”
last year. He will appear tonight
as the orderly.
Martin Geary, whose extensive
work in stage technique and craft
has been seen on Guild hall stage,
will appear for the first time as
an actor in the role of the colonel.
Wilbur Walker, as Mason, and I
Robert Ferguson, as the German
prisoner, will make their initial
campus appearance, though they
have had previous dramatic ex
perience.
