ROUSTABOUTS OUT OF POLITICAL SKIRMISH (Continued from Tune One) ments of the deaths of Londahl, Wilson, Cliff Potter and Commo dore Westbrook Hamby, leader of the contingent. This left the Roustabouts up a tree, so to speak, for they had no president. They then hurriedly commandeered Cap Roberts for that purpose, announced Mike Mik ulak as junior man, Mahr Rey mers as senior man, Duke Shane man as vice-president, and again loomed strong on the political hori zon. But still they were not on easy street. Their spectacular doings finally awakened the campus’ dor mant powers and things were starting to hum. David Wilson an nounced a ticket and included Cap Roberts on it, thereby depriving the Roustabouts of their second president. This left the dissen sionists only two alternatives, either to run Shancman for presi dent or to disband, and Shancman himself chose the latter way out. But while all this had been go ing on, Hall also had been active, and, influenced partially by a group of influential campus lead ers, he contemplated several changes in his party lineup to off set the new threat offered by the Wilson faction. Thus the Roustabouts have re tired from the field, but one of their men remains on a leading ticket and they have the personal satisfaction of realizing that they have written a sensational chapter in Oregon’s political history.

SPRING DANCE RECITAL I GIVEN HIGH ACCLAIM (Continued from Page One) were soft, slow, strong; her gown rose red, her emotion intense. Mendelssohn's Song Without Words No. 15, by the advanced choral, was classic in nature; the restraint and beauty by Greek art . . . like a song poignant enough to call forth both pity and fear. Song Without Words No. 27, by the senior majors, had all the au tocracy of the Caesars and the precision of military movement. The most popular number, and one which was distinctly humor- I ous, was a Russian dance, Tschai kowsky, done by Marian Moore house, Harriet Londahl, Faye Knox, Dorothy MacLean and Nel lie Schaeffer. Novelette (The Pink Tea), in terpreted by Alyce Cook, was a satire on manners; “How-do-you do ? I’m so glad to see you.” . . . gushing, wounded vanity, accept ance of an apology, the airing of social graces.” Lucille Hill in her Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2 by I.iszt was a wo man in a flame red dress. That was all, but that was enough. She was a woman, svelte and lithe, running the gamut of human emo tions. i TALKIE TOPICS ► Lup<‘ Valez and Leo Carillo in a scene from “The Broken Wing,” now showing at the McDonald.
