Then come to the Beaux Arts Ball, the all-campus dance, sponsored by the Art League, Friday, May. 19, is the advice of those in charge. It promises to be the most elab orate ball ever sponsored by the league. The decorations, carried out in sizzling East Indian mo tifs, with dark siren3 and fantas tic gods mingled in a bold and colorful style, are nearing com pletion. Rumor has it that they are being printed cn asbestos. Fred Peterson and his Rhythm Club will furnish the music, and exclusive oriental musical fea tures will be something new and different in the history of the campus. Costumes are necessary for ad mittance, and though anything is in order, the more original the better. Balloons, confetti and gay serpentines will add to the fun and informality. Refreshments have been planned for, also. Tickets for the ball may be pur chased at the Co-op, and also at living organizations. They are 75 cents, and since there is a limited number, purchases should be made 32p Rest in Infirmary Three hundred and twenty care worn students took advantage of the infirmary to get in a little much needed rest this year, ac cording to the records kept by th? nurses. Of this group, six are still under treatment. They are Jane Bishop, Nell Halstead, Bill Davis. Arne Lindgren, Robert Leedy, and George Proctor. 'The Winters Tale’ Cast Has Successful Dress Rehearsal\ By CAROLINE ROGERS Those who were present last i night at the dress rehearsal of the Guild theatre’s spring play, “The j Winter’s Tale,” were carried back ^ to the sixteenth century with its courtly atmosphere and quaint distinctive style of dress. The costumes, recently complet ed, after many long and tedious hours of work, under the super vision of Mrs. Ottilie Turnbull Sey bolt are excellent reproductions of the clothes of that period, and pro duce a colorful and spectacular ef fect. Charles Shoemaker, as Leontes, king of Sicilia, and Hagan Moore as Polixenes, king of Bohemia, portray their parts with the nec essary dignity and grandeur. In the first act, when they arc brought together for the first time, their costumes present a pleasing contrast. Polixenes is wearing a striped robe, of many brilliant col ors. affording a great contrast to Leontes, who appears in a long grey tunic with only a slight bi: of color around the sleeves and 9 edges of the skirt. Queen Hermione, as portrayed by Daisy Swanson, was indeed a very excellent choice of Mrs. Sey bolt, as she looks like a true story j book character, with her fair col- ■ oring and slight build, and the en tire effect of her acting through out the play, is that of an expe rienced and capable actress. Don Confrey and Louise Marvin, as the prince and princess, Flori zel and Perdita, make a charming couple, with their dark coloring ing and splendid ability. The large group scenes, which include the ladies of the court, the long trains of richly dressed cour tiers and ladies-in-waiting, and the hearty group of shepherds and shepherdesses, present an excel 1 e n t opportunity for efficient make-up of the actors. The scenery has been recently completed, after numerous weeks of working under George An dreini’s theatre workshop classes, j and both scenery and costumes j show the effect of many days of hard work and display the talent1 of the members. With the constant practices and ! continual readjustments that are being made, the best performance of the year is indicated. Announce ment of the tipket sale will be made later. 1 Palmer To Speak On Peace Efforts At Club Tonight Lccal Minister Will Analyze Anns Proposals of Roosevelt, MacDonald, Hitler “Present Day Movements To ward Peace” will be discussed by Rev.

By ED STANLEY Enforcement of freshman lids and traditions are gradually being abolished or dying out in 10 of 11 colleges and universities repre sented at the Pacific Student Presidents’ association meeting held last night in the men’s lounge of Gerlinger hall. Oregon State college seemed to be the only in stitution upholding the enforce ment of traditions. At Washington State college the sophomore class enforcement is gradually dying out, and the gray "W” group i3 not taking as much pains to aid in the enforcement. California has abolished the tradi tion, and at Willamette traditions cannot be enforced after the first few weeks. At U. C. L. A. frosh traditions have been abolished, Oregon has abolished hazing, and at San Diego students are work ing to eliminate it entirely, result ing in traditions being dead in the constitution. At U. S. C. tradi tions are getting weakjr year by year and the campus sentiment has crystallized against enforce ment. Whitman Delegate Speaks The Whitman delegate stated that the tradition was rapidly dy ing out, and at the College of Puget Sound the traditions have been eliminated from the consti tution and no enforcement will be made next year. At Occidental the enforcement may be abolished next fall. Only the Oregon State delegates stated that their school (Continued on Pacje Four) ---I Painter Attacked as Radical Diego Rivera, world-renowned muralist, who was recently made the butt of severe criticism by churches and capitalists because of the two mura is above.

Shall This Go On ? __ _ EDITORIAL A DEFINITE principle of democratic government is at stake on the University campus. Earl M. Pallett, executive secretary of the institution, is a member of both the executive and judicial branches of the A. S. U. 0. government. This is contrary to a fundamental premise ! of self-government. It is not tolerated in the government of the United States of America. It is not tolerated in the state of Oregon. Shall it be tolerated here? We first mentioned this ques tion Friday. Not yet has Mr. Pallett definitely faced the issue. He ha3 made a statement, but it is evasive and neither recog nizes nor repudiates the principle to which we have urged strict adherence. No man may belong to both the executive and judicial branches of the state cr federal government. Yet, here on this campus, where we pride ourselves in our so-called democratic government, a member of the faculty holds office in direct vio lation of a principle as old as John Marshall himself, a principle for which our forefathers battled and bled. The constitution requires that Mr. Pallett maintain his connection with the judiciary committee. He must serve on it himself or appoint a representative to take his place. There fore, his affiliation with the judicial branch must continue. But Mr. Pallett need not remain on the executive council. He is there as an appointee of the head of the University; if he remains thereon it will be because he is reappointed by Chancellor Kerr for the 1933-34 school year. We are sure the chancellor will recognize the 30und and incontestable principle for which we are fighting, and will name another faculty dele gate to the council. We have no bone to pick with Mr. Pallett. Our suggestion i3 a constructive one, advanced in the interests of sound gov ernment. If one man can defy the principle of judicial and executive distinction, then others can do the same, and our government will become a farce, guided by neither principle nor code. This i3 not a matter of personalities; it is a matter of principle. We do not believe Mr. Pallett can hold office in both the judicial and executive divisions of government. He cannot quit the former branch. Thus, there is only one alterna tive. He Sust not be reappointed to the executive council. We await the chancellor’s appointments, confident and hopeful that he will take cognizance of the principle involved and name someone to the council to replace Mr. Pallett. A fundamental and underlying premise of American government 1 is at the crossroads here today. Will it be defied or upheld? Lawyers Shuffle At Annual Dance •Held Last Evening The law student body's annual spring dance, sometimes better known as the Barristers’ Brawl, was held last night at Willamette Park from 7:30 until 11 o’clock. Numerous features were given throughout the evening, but the old-time folk dancing exhibition by Otto Frohnmayer, Preston Gunther, Otto Bowman, and John Yerkovitch failed to materialize on account of the unwillingness on the part of Bill Dashney, caller, to go through with the perform ance. The date committee, composed of P. K. Hammond and Bill Whitely, functioned to perfection, with the result that every mem ber of the law student body had dates of the very highest type. Some girls were disappointed, however, because the supply ex ceeded the demand, and only those who filed early yesterday morn ing could be accommodated. Patrons and patronesses for the dance included: Dean and Mrs. Wayne L. Morse, Professor and Mrs. Charles G. Howard, Profes sor and Mrs. Guy S. Claire, Pro fessor and Mrs. Carlton E. Spencer, and Professor Orlando John Hollis. Gus Elbow, Jr., was in charge of arrangements for the dance.

Old Executive Council Holds Las1 Meeting 1933-34 Members Will Carry On BOWERMAN IN CHAIR Motion on V wards for Emerald Works -red to Finance nittce The 1932-33 executive council held its last official meeting yes terday in the Administration build ing. The next time the council convenes the personnel will be of the 1933-34 vintage, under the chairmanship of Tom Tongue. Bob Hall, student body president, was in Portland yesterday so he could not preside at the meeting. Bill Bcwerman wielded the gavel in Hall's absence. A motion from the publications committee that all members of the Emerald staff who work three years, or are recommended by the editor or business manager, re ceive complimentary subscriptions for a period of five years follow ing graduation, was referred to the finance committee on the motion of Mr. Pallett. Those recommend ed for this award by Dick Neu berger, editor of the Emerald, were: Ed Stanley, Elinor Henry, Thornton Gale, Jack Bellinger. Robert Patterson, Robert Guild, Maximo Pulido, Oscar Mungar, Ju lian Prescott, Jessie Steele, and Esther Hayden. Vail Yell Leader From the business staff Harry Schenk named Mahr Reymers. All these students will receive their awards if the finance committee approves the publications commit tee's action. The suggestion that this be done was made a week ago by Dick Neuberger, when the coun cil voted to award graduating ath letes five-year sports passes. The council yesterday also vot ed to appoint Mickey Vail as yell king for the 1933-34 school year, succeeding Eddie Wells. One of the requirements for this post is that the candidate shall have served on the yell staff for two years, and the council moved to construe this as including fresh man service, thereby making Vail (Continued on Page Four) Nominations for Officers of Class Of’34 To Be Held JUNIOR members will nominate class officers and barber for the year 1934 at a meeting this evening at 7 o’clock, to be held in Villard hall, it was announced yester day by Neal Bush, president of the class.

Plain tiff; vs. Business Administration Student Body, defendant. Comes now the plaintiff in the 1 above entitled action and moves • that the answer of the defendant herein be stricken from the file' on the ground that it is sham, frivolous, and irrelevant in that it r fails to accept the plaintiff's chal i lenge for a game of indoor base ball to be played on the 20th day of May, 1933, and fails to assign ' any sufficient reason or any rea i son whatever why the said game should not be played on the said 20th day of May, 1933. Law School Student Body. ; Plaintiff This motion is explained by members of the law school student body on the grounds that the busi ; ness administration students have tried to change the date of the game from 1:15 p. m. May 20 to 4 p. m., May 19. The place has also been changed from "the field adjoining and abutting Hayward field” to Hayward field proper, and inasmuch as the law school is the challenger it feels that if the time and place which it sets are not ac ceptable to the business students, the challenge is as much as de clined and the game forfeited. However, upon receipt of this document, the business adminis tration school immediately drew up the following note, thus ending the controversy about the when and where of the affair. Eugene, Oregon, May 16, 1933. Four (4) days after date, we promise to PLAY the Lowly Law yers’ club one (1) game of indoor baseball, according to the stand ard rules for such sport, to be played on the field next to Hay ward field. If not so played, due to the fault of the Lowly Lawyers’ club, the undersigned shall be for the period of another year ad judged to be the superiors by far of the said lowly lawyers in the manly art of indoor baseball. We promise and agree to play said game and to abide by the decisions of a fair-minded umpire, said ar (Continued on Page Four)
