    Railroad’s Fares
Are Lowered for
Coming Holidays
Announcement Is Received
On Campus From
S. P. Agent
Special railroad fares have been
arranged for students desiring to
go home for the Christmas holi
day season, according to an

The holiday fares are unusually
low for all students who will want
to spend Christmas and New Year
with relatives, being the one-way
fare for the round trip.
Students should communicate

Pacific ticket office, phone 220'J,

quirements and other details gov
erning the holiday tickets to home
destinations, which will be avail
able for use at the close of school
for the Christmas vacation.
"The students’ Christmas vaca
tion fares have been arranged with
the knowledge that most young
men and women preparing them
selves for future careers will want
to spend the holiday season with
their folks at home," the an
nouncement from Agent Gillette
stated.
"The fare was made as low as
possible in a desire to be as help
ful as we can in assuring a happy
holiday during the period that
classrooms will be deserted."

"UPLIFT" LINES
This clever “Grecian Moon”
brassiere is a favorite with
smartly-dressed young women
because the curved elastic
between the breast sections
assures perfect “uplift” lines.
Destined for equal popularity
is this supple new “Tric-O
Lastic” (two-way stretch) gir
dle which gives just the right
hip control and at the same
time “knows its place”—and
stays there!
Maiden Form “Lo-Bak” brassiere up
lifts perfectly, though it is practically
backless. It is shown with brocade and
elastic “high-waist” girdle No. 877.

McDonald- Night After Night.
Colonial—But the Flesh Is
Weak.
McDonald
George Raft, ex-prize-fighter
ex-dancer, ex-waiter, ex-manj
things, and now newest of the
rages in leading men, plays hi.
usual sinister self in his usua!
unusual fashion in “Night Aftei
Night,” tale of the night clubs
adapted from Louis Bromfield'.
“Single Night.” Raft has sky
rocketed to fame through his wort
in “Scarface,” “Dancers in the
Dark,” and “Madame Racketeer.’
Suavest of the suave, and such a
menace, he looks like Rudolph
Valentino, and is not a little remi
niscent of him.
In “Night After Night” he play*
the apex of a triangle composer
of Constance Cummings a n c
Wynne Gibson. In order to make
it an unusual triangle it has di
mension tour, in tne person ot tne
beauteous Mae West of Diamond
Lil fame. “Night After Night" is
the inside dope, if you’re inter
ested, in what goeson behind the
glamour. It's done unusually well.
Colonial
Robert Montgomery is the Co
I lonial's dime nite star, in one of
his most popular pictures, “But
the Flesh Is Weak." Nora Gregor
plays the appeal, and Nils Asther,
newly discovered with a brand
new talkie personality, is the
heavy. Montgomery plays the
role of an insouciant fortune
hunter who (shh!) wants to marry
for money, but falls in love else
where. Mayfair is the locale, and
the dialogue is the crisp and
sparkling lines of Ivor Novello’s
“The Truth Game.”
This is absolutely guaranteed as
good entertainment, if you didn’t
know already. Just mention tlp,e
name—

THEATER BACKSTAGE
SCENE OF CONFUSION
(Continued from Page One)
drieni, harrassed, haggard and
hectic: Crissy Burlingame, paint
bespattered, bedraggled, be
smeared: and Gene Love, perspir
ing, persevering, and muttering.
They should be proud of the con
fusion which they have created.
Author Hart (hail censors!) says
in his preface to the play—“The
Glogauer studios are in the damnd
est room you ever saw.” And I
can only bow in ashamed tribute
to the genius that has made just
that. No need to mention the hec
tic unfolding of the act here
housed. It lived up to its environ
ment.
But that wasn’t all. Before the
evening was done many wonders
were to dazzle me. The hotel
scene, for instance. Said to be
“early DeMille," if you follow me,
it certainly was—sans bathtub.
Given the proscenium Guild thea
tre is cursed with, it is more won
der that we are dazed with the
sense of height, breadth, perspect
ive, and what have you, that is
here. It may not be fairyland, but
it is certainly amazing.
“Once in a Lifetime” gives
promise of being one of those
things—a highly amusing, hysteri
cal evening, as breakneck as it is
comical, and appropriately clothed
in the splendor it deserves. Hats
off to Directoress Seybolt, who
turns from tragedy to comedy
with great facility, and such com
edy, too.

UNIVERSITY CO OP]
Evans Presents
Varied Program
In Twilight Hour
By MARGARET STAUFF
At the Twilight Hour concert
Sunday afternoon, John Stark
Evans, organist, played a varied
i program of unusual interest, in
| eluding "Lamentation," by Guil
mont, dedicated to Prince Lucicn
Campbell, former president of the
i University, whose interest was
| largely responsible for the Sunday
afternoon programs which now
have become a regular part of the
life of the University. For six
years this particular number has
; been played once each autumn in
; memory of President Campbell.
In splendid contrast to this state
ly melody, “Toccata," by Gordon
I3alch Nevin, was quick and bril
liant, of changing moods, ending
with strength and power. “Hymn
of Glody," by Pietro Yon was well
interpreted, the theme appropriate
to Armistice day.
A number of rare charm was
“Pensive Mood" by David Burn
ham, played from the Echo organ
by Miss Frances Brockman, vio
linist. The solo so completely
blended with the accompaniment
that the effect was unbelievably
beautiful, and from the first quiet
chords until the last notes died
away, the large audience ‘ was
hushed in complete appreciation.
“Adagio Lamentoso” from sym
phony "Pathetique” by Tchaikow
ski, is well known for the subdued
ending of the finale, and was
played with full understanding of
its stately character. Retarded,
and finally dying away, accompan
ied by a single bass tone, the final
chords are wistful and appealing,'
and chosen as the final number on
this memorial hour, was particu
larly satisfying with the general
atmosphere of the program.
Onthank’s Articles on
Straub Will Be Printed
Biographical articles on Dean
Straub written by Karl W. On
thank, dean of the personnel ad
ministration of the University,
have been accepted for publica
tion by two journals, Banta’s

Dean Straub was vitally con
jnected with fraternity life on the
; campus, encouraging the organi
| zation of Greek letter organiza
tions for men and for women. He
was a charter member of one of
the first fraternities organized.
Personality and Dress
To Be Subject of Talk
Miss Mary Elizabeth Starr, of
■ the household arts department, is

I and Dress" during the upperclass

; at the bungalow.
The meeting is one of the im

I more, junior, and senior women is
