U ■■ Guild Players Have 'Berkeley Square’ Ready Capable Cast To Handle Performance CURTAIN RISES AT 8 Many Weeks of Preparation Spent lender Direction of Mrs. Seybolt i __ Th ballyhoo and frenzied prepa ration are done. At 8 o’clock to night “Berkeley Square” will bow lo its public at the Guild theatre. Weeks of preparation have gone before this performance. The cast has strained and fretted over late rehearsals, irksome lines, difficult decor; Mrs. Seybolt has trumpeted lustily and arrayed her charges nobly. Tonight she sends them into the fray, prepared to make or break, as is the way with plays. Success Almost Certain There is no reason for this one to break. “Berkeley Square” is as good a vehicle as the Guild players have had. The cast is as capable as could be marshalled. The sets are as fine as Director of Effects Andreini could make them. The night is Washington’s birthday, which is peculiarly apt. All these factors, put together, make a good play. Dress rehearsal last night was a sleek, well-turned out perform ance. It is said of this play that there is a magic and a tragedy of frustration in the situation of that second Peter who became the first Peter, who knowing that events cannot be altered when they have already happened, must marry Kate Pettigrew though he loves her sister, Helen . . . who sees the eighteenth century not glamorous, as he had dreamed, but filthy and cruel; and who, departing finally from one whose clairvoyance lets her see the future as he has seen the past, knows that he has loved a woman gone beyond recapture. Characters in “Pink” W'arren Gram, whether airily quoting epigrams not yet uttered by Oscar Wilde, or struggling in doubt with forces that must take away from his supernal existence, invested his dress rehearsal per formance with an eloquence born of restraint and economy. Betty Buffington at times is quite charming as the Helen who must be fragile and altogether delight ful. Taken all in all, we have every expectation of seeing as delightful a play as has been done at Guild theatre in the past several years. Tickets may be purchased at Johnson hall.

Chilly Words Fly When Prof Wins Tilt With Iceman Extra! Extra! Ice company vs. the physics department! A great row is on hand—with Prof. W. V. Norris the hero of the day. It seems that the physics de partment about two years ago bought a book of coupons, each good for 25 pounds of ice, with which to perform experiments. Well, formerly the ice order was for 100 pounds twice a week; but lately—what with the shifting of science schools, the famous depres sion, and the rest—the department has only needed 25 pounds. The ice company apparently be came rather disgusted with the idea of selling only 25 pounds of ice—and that on an old book of (Continued on Page Four) -— Unauthorized Statement qpHE FOLLOWING resolution, purported to be signed by the interfraternity council, was turned in to the Emerald last night, scoring the proposed plan for living at reduced costs. The presi dent of the interfraternity council declared the resolution unauthor ized as the council will not meet to consider it until Thursday afternoon. It is merely the preliminary draft made by a com mittee, members of which appear at the end of the statement: WHEREAS the interfiaternity council of the University of Oregon has taken exception to the editorial and story written by the editor and a reporter in the Emerald, page 1, February 21, 1933, and W’HEREAS the editor has grossly misinformed the students, and the public, concerning the living expenses in fraternity houses, and has minimized the supposed expenses of the ‘ Emerald Plan,” and WHEREAS we believe that the “Emerald Plan” should have a firm foundation of facts and organization before it can be given the name, “Emerald- Plan,” and WHEREAS the interfraternity council of the University of Oregon believes the aforesaid editorial has brought disrepute upon that body, therefore be it RESOLVED, that the council go on record as opposing the editorial policy of the editor. The council further decries the lack of substantiating facts, and sincerely hopes that the editor will use more mature judgment in such matters in the future.

Slieldon To Talk On Development Of Universities Faculty Lecture To Take Place At 8 o’clock Wednesday Evening in Villard The dramatic story of the rise and development of the American university as it is today will be the topic of Dr. H. D. Sheldon at the faculty lecture Wednesday night at 8 o’clock in Villard hall. Not only will the change from the old conservative type of col lege to the modern conception of a university be described, but Dean Sheldon will sketch the personali ties and work of the leaders who brought the advancement about. The new movement, which aroused considerable controversy for many years, began at the Uni versity of Michigan in 1852, under the direction of Henry Tappan, Dean Sheldon points out. The work was pushed further at Corn ell, starting about 1868, with An drew D. White, millionaire scholar and politician guiding the destinies of this institution. The work at Harvard, begun in 1869 under Charles W. Elliot, will be described, and the personality of Noah Porter, whose book against the new development won him the presidency of Yale, will be discussed. Dean Sheldon will point out the significance of the found ing of Johns Hopkins at Baltimore in *876, which marks the begin ning of real graduate study and research in the modern university. The development of the univer sities, such as Stanford, Chicago, Pennsylvania and others will be stressed, and the personalities of such men as David Starr Jordan, William R. Harper and others will be described. The growth of such movements as the elective system, graduate and research work and growth and development of the profes sional schools will also be topics. The lecture has been prepared to interest all students and faculty (Continued on 1‘aye Four) University Will Be Host To High School Athletes ! 336 Men To Meet May 20 for Track Event — PLAN ZONE SYSTEM! _ | New Organization of Eliminations i Leaves State's Best for Final Contest — The University of Oregon will be host to 336 athletes when the state high school inter-scholastic track meet is held for the first time on Hayward field Saturday, May 20, it was announced yester day by Tom Stoddard, assistant j graduate manager, who is promot I ing the meet. | In the past the meet has been i held annually at Corvallis, but on | order of the board of higher educa tion last spring the meet will be j alternated each year between the j University and Oregon State col lege. Since the meet has been sche duled for May 20, the Oregon-Ore gon State duel meet has been ad vanced to May 19, so that the high school athletes will have an op portunity to see college track men in action, Stoddard said. New System Planned Formerly it was the custom for any school to enter as many par ticipants as they chose, but now the state will be divided into eight districts and the first and second places will compete in the state meet, but in the case of dis trict eight, which comprises the Portland High School Athletic association, the four first places in each event will be eligible to com pete in Eugene. The eliminations will be run off either May 6 or 13. The new system will correspond to that used in Washington, Calif or- j , nia, and other surrounding states. Colonel Bill Hayward, who will be the director of the meet, said, ! “The district meets will prove a more satisfactory plan because when the athletes come to the state meet here, only the cream of the crop will be competing; against each other. The Univer sity of Oregon expects to run a real high class meet in which each athlete will have a chance to show his best ability in the events in which he participates. “We are endeavoring to ar range. the track so that every event will end where it starts. All field events will be brought closer to the stands where the spectators will easily' see every event.” All preliminaries will be run off in the morning and the finals will take place in the afternoon, stated Stoddard. At present the organizers are arranging the dis trict meets and medals are being selected. Gary Makes Plans J. L. Gary, principal of West Linn high school and secretary of the state board of control, is au thorizing this meet, Stoddard said. The state board of control will appoint a committee of at least three principals or superintendents from each district to conduct the respective meets. Following are the districts where meets will be held: 1— Wallowa, Union, Baker, Malheur, and Umatilla counties. 2— (a)—Grant, Wheeler, Har ney, Jefferson, Crook, Deschutes, Klamath, and Lake counties; (b>— Sherman, Wasco, Hood River, I Morrow, and Gilliam counties. 3— (a)—Coos and Curry coun ties;
