NUMBER 55 ASUO Officers To Be Checked For Eligibility No Unregistered Person May Hold Position All Possibility of Repealing Last Terms Episode To Be Halted A central office to check on the eligibility of ail students appointed to A. S. U. O. positions and certify Irma Logan ; their registration in the University, will be set up im mediately, Brian Mimnaugh, presi Ident of the asso ciated students, said yesterday. | The plan has I been devised to keep non-Univer s i t y - registered men and women from holding campus appointive ornces. Irma Logan in Charge Irma Logan, secretary of the student body, will be in charge of the checking work, Mimnaugh said. All appointments made by any elected officer of the A. S. U. O., publications officials, or sports managerial heads must first be handed to Miss Logan for verifica tion. When checked for eligibility they will be approved for announce ment to the campus, according to Mimnaugh. Formation of the checking of fice resulted from an expose in the Emerald last term of the Mathews case, in which a student not regis tered in school held three campus appointive offices. Following the first disclosure, other cases came to light and Mimnaugh moved to prevent a possible recurrence of the situation. KechecUing Promised Appointive positions that con tinue from one term to another are to be rechecked at the first of ev ery new term, it is announced. “In establishing this checking system,’’ Mimnaugh said last night, “we will be absolutely sure that every student receiving any sort of committee or staff appointment on the campus is eligible to hold the position. It is a good move.” Tea To Be Given by YWCA Advisory Board Monday The Y. W. C.

John Stark Evans Will Play French Themes Sunday Organ Recital Sunday Also To Depict Impression Of America French compositions will pre dominate in John Stark Evans’ twilight organ recital Sunday, which will begin at the usual hour, 5, and will last about forty min utes. Although “Adagio and Allegro— op. 95” from the “New World” Symphony is written by Anton Dvorak, and is reminiscent of the composer's visit to America, the three remaining numbers are de cidedly French in nature, being written by outstanding organists and composers. Charles M. Widor, contemporary musician of Paris, wrote “Andante Cantabile—op. 13,” and “Gavotte” from the charming “Mignon” is composed by Thomas. The last number, “Chorale— A-minor,” by Cesar Franck, great French organist, is famous for its elaborate development of a simple chorale theme. Underground Study Will Be Feature of Field Trip Professor Warren D. Smith’s class in physiography will make a field trip today to one of Oregon’s cement companies at Roseburg. The class expects to find some very interesting structural and stratagraphic problems at the mines which will tie-up with their present class work. The class will be taken under ground where they will climb several hundred feet in to the stopes in making their stud ies of the various structures. "Mighty Oregon" Composer First U of O Band Director t It was back in 1921 that Albert Perfect, composer of Oregon’s tra ditional school song “Mighty Ore gon,” came to the University as a faculty member for a period of three years. To him might be given the title of "father” of the University band, which today has become one of the best organiza tions of its kind in the Northwest. At this early period, however, the band lineup consisted of a very few students and was merely a pep band. Mr. Perfect, who is now teaching privately in a junior college out of Los Angeles, in stilled a spirit in the band which today still lives—the spirit which gives that atmosphere to football and basketball games. Andrew “Landles was the next director. To him is given the credit of starting concert work in the band. The concerts consisted, however, or only one appearance during the year at a student as sembly. Landles, who is teaching privately around Eugene, was di rector for two years. A former Portland Symphony player, Walter Farris, then took over the directorship in 1927. It was during Farris' three-year pe-| 1 riod that the band started attend ing the Oregon-Oregon State foot ball game at Corvallis and the games in Portland. Farris was a military man and is now with the Hill Military academy as director of the band. It was three years ago that John Stehn, graduate of Grinnel college in Iowa, with an M.A. from the University of Iowa, came to the University from the University of Oklahoma, where he was teaching mathematics. In his college days Stehn played oboe and clarinet in the band and orchestras of the two institutions he attended. He also played in the Oklahoma Sym phony. At present he plays first French horn in the University or chestra. Much credit is due Stehn for the development of the band since he enrolled with the University fac ulty. One reason for this develop ment is that two years ago upper division credit was not given the members. Only the two years of military credit was given. In tomorrow’s concert the at mosphere of finesse will be added by the striking new uniforms. The (Continued on Page Two) i Band Will Play Tomorrow in First Concert ' Two Programs Planned For Winter Term Presentation Open to Town And Campus People Free of Charge The University concert band will give its initial appearance this year at the school of music audi torium Sunday afternoon at 3 o’clock. This hour of concert is open to the public and no admis sion will be required. This concert will be the first of two concerts to be given this term. The next program will be given Sunday, February 28, at the Music buildipg. During the spring term the band will give outdoor con certs on the mill-race every Sun day afternoon. Italian March First “Inglesina,” a march by Delle Cese, is the first number on the program. It is a typical Italian military march. Florid melodies, elaborate woodw i n d embellish ments, and startling dynamic con trasts make this number almost without equal as a military march. The overture “Stradella” by Von Flotow, known best by the lovely horn quartet which opens the num ber, is the second to be given. A bright middle section is followed by a majestic finale. "Scenes Pittoresques” by Jules Massanet is a number showing the composer’s variable ability. The titles of the four movements de scribe the suite accurately: Marche, Air de Ballet, Angelus, Fete Boheme. It presents the composer in an entirely different mood from that of “Phedre Over ture,” which the band played last year. “Faust” on Program Gounod's selection, "Faust,” con tains the well-known “Soldiers Chorus” and waltz, together with other melodies from this opera, which ranks as one of the most popular operas of all time. The last number is the colorful “Southern Rhapsody” by Lucius Hosmer, an American composer. Harp obligato in this number will be played by Doris Helen Patter son, member of the music school faculty. This is her first appear ance with the band, but she has made appearances with the Uni versity orchestra and numerous solo appearances. This composition is a skillfully blended fantasia on southern airs, and original melodies based on fa miliar Dixie rhythms. Humor, pathos, and gayety alternate throughout the number. The har monies and rhythms are intricate at times.

I Trying to Forget the Wa As the time for the big enemy offensive draws near, the group of English officers in a front-line dugout do their best to forget the horrors of the conflict. In the above scene from “Journey’s End," which closes its run at Guild theatre this afternoon and this evening, are, left to right: Jack Stipe, Warren Gram, Leonard Dart, and Walden Boyle. Two Critics Unite in Praise Of War Drama Presentation By S. STEPHENSON SMITH The Guild hall company played Sherriff's “Journey’s End” in a style which would have passed muster before an English audience. The script is a hard one for Amer ican players, for the English play wright shows quite accurately that his countrymen eased the shock of front trench warfare by keeping up their Dickensian humor; also, they took great pains to maintain their amateur standing: indeed, the war is presented in this play from a domestic angle, as a war run by civilians, lately schoolboys —which is pretty close to the truth. But the players had mastered this atmosphere so well, and kept so perfectly in their assumed Eng lish characters, that it required none of the effort usual in the theatre to suspend one’s disbelief. For once, there was no patronizing talk in the lobbies; and not even the captious murmured “Pretty good for amateurs.” (Continued on rage Two) Pendell To Speak Next Tuesday on Human Relations ‘Institutionalism’ Provides Topic for First of Lecture Series The second of a series of free University lectures for winter term will be presented riext Tues day evening at 7:30 in Guild thea tre. Dr. Elmer Pendell of the depart ment of economics will give the lecture, the topic of which is “In stitutionalism: A New Econom ics.” Throwing new light on hu man relations by systematic exam ination of the structure of an in stitution is the theme of the lec ture. Dr. Pendell’s definition of an in stitution is: “An insitution is a set of slow-changing relationships in which an individual’s conduct is influenced predominantly by the supposed expectations of other in (Continued on Tape Two) Hell’s Popping In Wisconsin, Notes Charley “God give us men, A time like this demands ...” The ice is broken.

While others wail, warn or whistle, Wisconsin works—and acts. "If ye let ’em live, ye got ta feed 'em,” she says.

By WELDON A. KIRIS “Journey’s End" has been termed “a moving document against war.’’ Drama students presenting this stirring war play, pictured with touching reality the fact that war takes the finest and bravest men in the land. Leonard Dart plays the role of Captain Stanhope, a ybung com pany commander who had been in the trenches three years fighting with himself to stand the terrific [ nervous strain and drowning his I fears in drink. His work was par ticularly good. Dart had many tense and emotional scenes that were well portrayed. The seriousness of the situations were relieved by the cheerfulness and comedy of Walden Boyle as Second Lieutenant Trotter. Boyle showed marked ability and clev erly handled his part as a slow thinking rather simple-minded British Tommy. Warren Gram played the part of Lieutenant Baleigh, a young Eng (Continued on Pape Two) All in Readiness For Big Ballyhoo Danee at Grove Molif To Carry Out Idea of Former Years Willi Advertisements Plans for the “rip roarin’est” Krazy Kopy Krawl in history are laid and everything is in readiness for the annual Bob JUKI Holmes > Ylplia Delta Sig \ na, professional \ idvertising fra > ernity, dance at ! ^ocoanut Grove | onight, accord i n g t o Bob lolmes, co-chair nan of the event, n an announce nent late last light.

Comparison with the honor roll of fall term last year shows a de crease of 35 students attaining the distinction this year.

Gilbert, dean of the college and chairman of the schol arship committee, in discussing the decrease said that it was probably due to a tightening up of grade standards, but declined to make a definite statement until complete figures could be consulted. Women students led the men on this fall’s honor roll, placing 53 on the list to 40 for the men. The names of 20 freshmen appear on the roll.
