    Evans Will
Conduct 'St.
Cecilia Mass’
Annual Presentation Wiill
Be Given Sunday
Methodist Episcopal Church To
Be Scene of Mass For
Thirteenth Time
*
The thirteenth annual Eugene
presentation of the “St. Cecilia
Mass" under the direction of John
Stark Evans will be given Sunday
afternoon at 5 o'clock at the First
Methodist Episcopal church, where
Mr. Evans is organist and choir
director.
As is his custom, Mr. Evans will
not only direct the choir in the
presentation of the traditional
yuletide music, but will serve as
organist as well. The presenta
tion of the glorious church work
will take the place of Mr. Evans’
regular Sunday evening organ re
citals.
The soloists, all of whom are
members of the Methodist choir,
are to be Emiliene Roach, so
prano; Don Eva, tenor; and Her
schel Scott, baritone. Eva is sing
ing the solo part in this concert
for the fourth successive time.
Several other University students
are members of the vested choir
and will take part in the concert.
The Latin mass was written in
the nineteenth century by the
French composer, Gounod, in hon
or of the patron saint of music,
St. Cecilia. It is rich in its melo
dies and climaxes and is of deep
religious significance, appropriate
to the Christmas season.
Following the service, which
will last approximately one hour,
the Wesley foundation, Methodist
university students’ organization,
will entertain with a social half
hour for those who desire to re
main. Refreshments will be served
from 6 until 6:30.

much as the average uneducated
man in the street. It would ap
pear that we are too optimistic,
perhaps, in assuming that educa
tion is such a powerful factor in
moulding the opinions of the indi
vidual.”
While discussion of the college
straw vote, in the light of actual
election results, was reaching a
crescendo this week, observers
noted a few practical results of
the official polling on November 8,
as it affected higher education:
1. In Oregon, the Zorn-Macpher
China War Lord
Well and Alive
Marshall Chang Hseuh-Liang,1
war lord of northern China, is
alive and well, all rumors of his
fatal poisoning notwithstanding.
This is a positive statement that
is made here by Dr. Harold J. No
ble, assistant professor of history
at the University of Oregon, and
he gets his information first hand.
Dr. Noble received a letter from
T. Y. Wang, general secretary to
Chang Hseuh-Liang, in which the
tumors were definitely set at test.
Mr. Wang, a highly educated Chi
nese, as is his chief, was inter
viewed by Dr. Noble last summer,
during a trip to the Orient.
Although Chang Hseuh-Liang
has been driven out of Manchuria,
he still has considerable power in
China, and by no means has given
up his struggles, Dr. Noble says.
The Orient is regarded by Dr. No
ble as the most fascinating part
of the world at present, and he is
watching with interest develop
ments there, especially since he is
personally acquainted with many
people involved there.
son bill, which would have further
reorganized the higher educational
system in that state, was snowed
under approximately 221,000 to
34,000.
Attacked as a “school-juggling
bill” by the University of Oregon
Daily Emerald, but supported by
the Oregon State College Daily
Barometer as economically sound,
the proposition would have estab
lished the state university on the
Oregon State college campus,
while the present campus of the
University in Eugene would have
been converted into a teachers'
college. Two normal schools would
have become junior colleges, and a
third would have been abolished.
2. In Washington, Clarence D.
Martin, Democrat, who has
charged that the University of
Washington “is in the hands of her
enemies” and who has promised
educational reforms, was elected
governor. He proposes to allow
all high school graduates to enter
the university.
3. In Wisconsin, John B. Chappie,
Republican, whose campaign was
largely made up of vitriolic at
tacks on the University of Wis
consin students and faculty, was
defeated by F. Ryan Duffy, Demo
crat. Chappie charged that the
university was a “hotbed” of com
munism and radicalism.
4. In New York city, John P.
O’Brien, Democrat, who, accord
ing to the Columbia Daily Spec
tator, wants that university de
loused of Communists and Social
ists and who wants Columbia to
have an R. O. T. C., was elected
mayor by an overwhelming ma
jority.

News Items Put
Into Scrapbook;
——
207 Articles, 83 Editorials
Among Collections From
Register-Guard
A scrapbook containing a total j
of 207 news items and 83 editor
ials from the Eugene Register- I
Guard and as many other articles
as it is possible to obtaiin which
appeared in the press of the state
during the recent Zorn-Macpher
son school moving bRl, is being
prepared at the alumni office.
The 207 news items, from the
Register-Guard, including heads,
total 2594 column inches in length
or 123.5 standard 21-inch columns
of 15.4 pages. The 83 editorials to
tal 613 inches in length, but as
the Register-Guard editorial col
umn is one and a half times as
wide as the news column, this is
equivalent to 29 columns or 5.4
pages.
The alumni office is completing
files of news stories, organization
of campaign, student work, cam
pus publicity, samples of booklets
and folders, statistical studies and
other items having an important
part in the campaign. One copy
will be filed at the alumni office
and the other lodged in the Uni
versity library.
Robert K. Allen, who handled
publicity from the alumni office
during the campaign, is aiding in
preparing the files and is assist
ing Alexander G. Brown, alumni
secretary, in bringing the routine
work of the office up to date.
Clothing Is Taken
From Parked Car
By Traffic Police
Car Is Registered Under
Name of C. D. Johnson;
Owner Asked To Call
The city police are wondering if
any University student ever no
ticed a loss of some clothing. Chief
of Police Carl Bergman has had a
suit of clothing and several pairs
cf very good shoes on his hands
for over two months now, and
would be more than willing to get
rid of them.
These articles were taken from
a car, Ford coupe, 1929 model,
which was parked on Alder street,
just off 13t.h avenue, for several
I days. The car had a broken wheel
land while examining it, police no
; ticed the articles mentioned. Af
j ter tagging the car for overtime
parking for the third or fourth
time, they decided to remove all
removable articles to the police
station for safe-keeping. They
have been there ever since. I
The only clue to ownership of
the articles was found in the reg
istration of the car. It is owned
by C. D. Johnson, of 874 Lovej'y i
street, Portland.
Chief Bergman asks as a spe
cial favor that the owners of the
various articles call foi them as
soon as possible. Identify them,
and take them away.
MUELLER SPEAKS ON
RUSSIA AT CLUB MEET

economic advantages of trade
with a nation with unlimited de
mands.
Recently Russia has made non
aggression treaties with France,
Poland, and Finland, and is negoti
ating with Rumania. Japan, how
ever, refused her request for such
a treaty.
“Why has Japan refused a non
aggression pact? Japan and Rus
sia seem to be coming together on
the Manchurian problem instead
of being made inimical by it.”
That the five-year plan has cer
tainly not been a total failure was
pointed out by the speaker. He
questioned the statements of Le-,
vine's “Red Smoke,” saying that
they were established on authori
ties too olQ and incomplete,
though authentic. He suggested
that the club members read an
article on the subject in the July,
1932, Current History, which has
recent figures.

(Editor's Note: This is the
second in a series of articles
dealing with honorary fratern
ities at the University of Ore
gon. The previous article dealt
with Sigma Xi, science honor
ary, and this with Phi Beta Kap
pa, scholastic honorary.)
By ANN-REED BURNS
There is a certain pin—a gold
key, bearing a hand with the in
dex finger pointing toward three
stars, and inscribed with three
Greek letters—a key which un
locks none of the usual gates and
bolts but which opens the door
of recognition to those who are
fortunate enough to wear it.
It is the Phi Beta Kappa key.
Phi Beta Kappa is the oldest
Greek letter fraternity. Estab
lished in 1776 at the college of
William and Mary as a social
group, it gradually developed into
a national scholastic honorary. To
day it still is at the head of the
list of Greek societies, for there
are 125 chapters of Phi Beta Kap
pa—a greater number than most
fraternities have.
Each year the members in each
local chapter of Phi Beta Kappa
choose not more than 10 per cent
of the seniors who have been most
outstanding through the four years
in scholastic work. As a rule, at
the University of Oregon, about 5
per cent of the class is selected—
from 25 to 30 generally being
elected.
The “Senior Six,” who are cho
sen in the fall term, are those sijc
students who have so far had the
most worthy record. A further
number of seniors are elected in
the spring.
The requirements of a Phi Bete
are a grade point average of 2 for
all four years or of 2.5 for the last
five terms. Thus a student must
have an average of either B all
through his college career or half
way between A and B for most of
his last two years. Also, a stu
dent must have had 80 term hours
on the Eugene campus.
In selecting the Phi Betes, stu
dents are favored who, in addition
to excellent scholarship, have tak
en a wide range of subjects and
have not confined themselves to a
narrow specialized field. Not only
grades but personality is taken
into account—a student’s interest,
his initiative, and intellectual cu
riosity.
Also—and here i3 a fact not
generally known—a student who
has participated in worthwhile ac
tivities is preferred to the one who
has been successful in studies
alone.
Now, here’s something to re
member, all you would-be Phi
Betes! Every professor you evei
had will be consulted when your
name comes up. The membership
committee sends a list of names
to every professor—and his judg
ment is an important point in the
selection.
The Oregon chapter of Phi Beta
Kappa has ope feature which is
unknown to many. It sponsors a
bookshelf in the library as a means
of furthering interest in good lit
erature. Each year $25 is invest
ed in the best recent publications,
and these books are loaned out
through the library for one year.
At the end of that time they are
given to the most outstanding
sophomore.
The University of Oregon chap
ter was founded in 1923. At pres
ent the officers of the chapter are
Dr. George Rebec and Miss Mary
Kent, secretary. Prof. John Muel
ler has just retired from office
after holding the office of presi
dent for the last two years.

Language Forum Publishes
A rticle Written By Dr. Bowen j
_
“Balzac’s Dramatic Technic in
'Le Pere Goriot’ ’’ written by Dr.
Ray P. Bowen, head of the Ro
l mance languages department of
the University of Oregon, appears
as the leading article in the Octo
i her number of “Modern Language
I Forum," one of the outstanding
i publications in this field. The ar
i tide has won high praise from Dr.
j Bowen’s colleagues here and else
where.
| In his article Dr. Bowen not only
analyzes the ciualities of the novel
and the ability of Balzac, but
points out the dramatic sense with
which the author writes. A di
vision of the work into acts and
scenes, with number of characters,
is included.
“Thus we see that Balzac pos
sessed a sense for dramatic
scenes," says Dr. Bowen. "The
dining room as pictured in the
prologue with all the boarders
gathered about the table is typical
of his powers of concentrating in
one place all the elements the un
folding of which producess the
drama. The setting out of which
everything precedes is given in
full. Every person reveals there
the characteristics that indicate
the role he will play.
“The brilliant dialogue subtly
implies the entire plot. The gay
ety of the scene is in sharp con
trast with the deep tragedy that is
gradually evolved out of that set
ting.
“Balzac's humor, like Voltaire’s
grin, runs through this whole
story. The most tragic scenes are
found funny by someone, or are
treated with the cool indifference
that selfishness breeds. Much has
been written about the brilliance
of the dialogue in all Balzac’s
novels. Even the most casual re
mark contains hidden and very
significiant meaning."
"We have seen that Balzac had
a sense for dramatic structure,
not only as far as the struggle is
concerned, but also in his build
ing up of acts and scenes, and in
his presentation of dramatic sit
uations.” Dr. Bowen said in his
conclusion. "His characters, how
ever, which often require several
novels in order to be fully re
vealed, are even in any one of
them, conceived with two complex
psychology, and their actions are
the results of too intricate a
scheme of causes to fit into the
requirements of an evening’s per
formance. They prevented the
author's success as a dramatist
for the stage.”
Dr. Bowen has earned a reputa
tion among authorities on Ro
mance languages through his writ
ings on Balzac, and has had sev
eral articles publisihed previously
on this subject.
Democrats* Club
Hears S. S. Smith
“International Problems" was
the subject of a talk delivered by
S. Stephenson Smith, professor of
English in the University before
the Young Democrats’ club at a
meeting held at the Osborne hotel
Wednesday night.
In his talk Professor Smith ad
vocated the reduction of debts in
proportion to armament reduction
other countries would be willing
to make. A more lenient policy
toward Japan should be adopted
in view of the Manchurian prob
lem, Smith stated. After the main
talk the group joined in informal
discussion on various points along
international lines.
Plans for permanent organiza
tion of the club were brought up
for discussion, and a constitution
providing for permanent organiza
tion was adopted.

say all that, of course.
He gets his exercise by walking
the mile and a half between his
home and the campus. He never
takes the bus unless it’s raining
very hard indeed.
He has lived in Eugene all but
three or four of the 22 years of
his life. He attended Eugene high,
but graduated from Lincoln high
in Portland. “Dave Wilson was
president of the student body the
first year I was there,” he re

As to his ambitions, "I'd like to

suppose I’ll have to get a job
sometime.”
