Four Students To Be Soloists For 'Messiah’ Oratorio To Be Presented Week From Sunday Symphony Orchestra and Choir To Join in Presentation Of Production “Local talent” will be very prominent in the presentation of “The Messiah," to be given a week from Sunday by the University polyphonic choirs and symphony orchestra. All four of the soloists for the oratorio are Eugene stu dents. Announcement made yesterday by Arthur Boardman, choir direc tor, disclosed that the solo roles will be filled this year by Grace Burnett, soprano; Rose Simons, contralto; Victor Bryant, tenor; and Gifford Nash, basso. Soloists from Eugene The localization of all the solo ists to Eugene is a coincidence in marked contrast to last year’s per formance, when the four soloists were students from Salem, Ash land, and Eugene. All four of this year's soloists have won their spurs and their public approval in previous solo appearances. Muss Burnett and Miss Simons were soloists in last year’s production of Gaul’s “Holy City.” Victor Bryant starred in Hayden’s? "Creation” last spring, and Giford Nash and Miss Burnett had the leading roles in “The Beg gar’s Opera” in May of this year. Rehearsals to Begin Behind the soloists on the Mc Arthur court stage will be a 150 voice choir made up of the com bined polyphonic choir and poly phonic chorus. In front of them will be the full 65-piece symphony orchestra. Roy Bryson and Rex Underwood have given the poly phonic chorus and the orchestra preliminary training for the “Mes siah.” Rehearsals of the entire ensemble under Boardman’s baton began Tuesday. The Associated Students have consented to manage the concert for the music school. Ronald H. Robnett, assistant graduate man ager, announced yesterday that the ticket sale for faculty and townspeople would open at the Co-op and at McMorran and Washburns’s early next week. Keetly To Address KORE Audience In a radio speech sponsored by the Socialist party, Rolla Reedy, senior in journalism, will address listeners through KORE at 2 o’clock Sunday afternoon on ‘‘What Socialism Is and What It Is Not.” This address, which is on the ‘‘Magazine of the Air” program, follows last week’s speech by Wal lace Campbell, who talked on the subject of "Charity and Social In surance in the Present Crisis,” sponsored by the League of Indus trial Democracy. These talks will be a regular Sunday feature of KORE, the Rev erend Clay E. Palmer, and the Reverend Ernest M. Whitesmith alternating with Reedy and Camp bell. Swim as Usual Contrary to the report in the! Tuesday Emerald social swim will | be held from 7:30 to 9 p. m. as usual on Friday evenings during i the remainder of the term. Rec reational hour for women wishing to swim Friday afternoons will be at 4 o’clock as it has been all term. i Taps for Another Oceanic Aviator i_ Alekio Lilius (right), leader of the expedition to find the missing United States airman, Glenn Brophy, ordering a final salute to be fired as a tribute to the lost aviator. All hope of discovering him has been given up, and on the barren little isle of Yami in the Philippine archipelago the search is ended. Second from the right is Vicente Formoso, governor of the Calayan province. Brophy left Portuguese China several months ago on an attempted flight to Manila. His name has been chalked up on the ever growing list of missing aviators who attempted to baffle the wily Pacific.

At this meeting faculty members and upperclass men will advise the frosh on “Do’s” and "Dont's” of prepara tion for final exams. Bill McNutt, A. T.

DAVE WILSON, PHI BETA KAPPA, HAS COMPLEX (Continued from Page One) rackets that give soft jobs to trav eling secretaries and executives who carry on the ‘business’ from expensive suites in metropolitan skyscrapers,” he remarked. “Phi Bete’s a different matter,” he added. "It only costs $10.00.” He doesn't know just what he will do when he finishes school. "I’m afraid I'll never justify the cultural expectations of Phi Bete —just a hack writer, that’s all. T in an ex-debater, ex-politician, and ex-idealist.” Movie Notes COLONIAL—“False Faces.” MCDONALD “Too Busy To Work.” By BOB GUILD Colonial A pretty fancy package they’re unwrapping these nights at the Co lonial. at that. Lowell Sherman was never more urbane, suave and master of the many situations he got himself into than in his “False Faces.” Starting out as a petty grafter and quack in a big hospital, he im provises on fate, that gets him kicked out of his job. moves to Chicago, and sets up in the big time. From then on the grafting, face and money, is on a larger scale. This is the always interesting story of a gent smooth enough to inculcate big business methods in the profession. Not exactly a fac ial Burbank, he is the daddy of all fast talking promotion sharks, and plainly having read his Casanova, the girls flock to him for their fac ials, at 5000 berries per lift. His methods are quite simple. He flatters them all, and promises them the moon, in six months. They all like it. Shortly before he gets himself disillusioned enough to admit they're all alike he mires down, but not without a struggle. * * * McDonald There has been a Miss America a year for some time, but there is one Mr. America. Meet Will Rog ers again, in a sort of half tramp, half I’agliacci role, which will probably swell his following con siderably. Always the homely philosopher, he dresses up his phil osophic gems in rags this time: delivers them with holes in his shoes. Once again we are called on to see what the open road can do to develop whimsy in its fre quenters. If you read his syndicated col umn you no doubt have an idea of the type of shrewd and timely comments that are interwoven in the narrative of his latest picture. Marion Nixon and Dick Powell lend a helping hand. We confess to a hankering for Miss Nixon as the country lass—and as for Sir Rogers, what could suit him bet-, ter? The Oklahoma sage to the life. Braden To Speak At Gerlinger Hall George W.
