t R.W.Leighton Publishes‘Art Appreciation’ Bulletin Third in Series? Of Teaching Studies Arnold Bennett Hall Started Group In 1930 to Promote Interest In Beauty A bulletin entitled “Studies in Appreciation of Art” has just been published by R. W. Leighton, ex ecutive secretary of research, at the University. It will form number three of a series of studies in college teach ing sponsored by the Committee on College Teaching at the Uni versity of Oregon and financed by the Carnegie Corporation, New York. The study was launched in 1930 by Arnold Bennett Hall, who was then president of the University. The project was based upon a strong interest in appreciations of beauty as factors of a social de velopment for those individuals of society who are not trained and do not expect to train themselves for any creative work or particu lar skills in any of these fields. Theories Discussed This publication deals chiefly with theories of appreciation and methods of teaching, while a later one will deal with tests or meas ures of appreciation. The volume has been compiled in separate parts by several prom inent educators. Part I by Dr. John Mueller, associate professor of sociology, outlines the present status of the field of aesthetics with respect to definition of the field, analysis of the function or nature of art, of beauty, and with respect to terminology. It then traces the principal trends of aesthetic theory for the past 150 years. Other Ideas Represented Part II by Ernest G. Moll, as sistant professor of English, out lines briefly the theories of appre ciation of poetry which he has de veloped in the course of the study, outlines his experimental course, his methods of teaching and his methods of evaluating results. Part III by N. B. Zane, asso ciate professor of design, gives in more detail his present analysis of appreciation, an analysis of the types of tests developed for that field. Part IV by Kate V. Hevner, as sistant professor of psychology at the University of Minnesota, pre sents for the music field an analy sis of music appreciation, of the problems incident to the study of music appreciation, and testing methods.developed by her in con nection with this project.

The Student Church ROSEBELLE HIMELSTEIN TC7ITH the economic and political ™ conditions in such a chaotic state, one can't help wondering what the future holds for us.

COLONIAL — "Masquerader," Ronald Colman, Elissa Landi. By J. A. NEWTON On. Trading Places l A number of interesting situa tions can arise from a man step ping into another man's shoes, es pecially if he looks just like him. A number are presented in “Mas querader.” For instance, the Masquerader asks of his butler, who is in on the plot, who that charming girl is, and he is informed very solemnly that it's his wife. j He is confronted by the ardent and personal love making of the mistress of the man whose place he is taking. He is also confronted by the ( other’s beautiful wife, who believes that he has conquered his “illness,” which is taking dope. And the greatest thing for him is that he is able to take the boun der’s place in parliament and put into effect some of the reforms which he has been considering in his periodical articles. The interest is centered on how he meets these situations, and how the love between the Masquerader and the other’s wife grows. Very good. Gal Gets Around Claire Trevor, the girl who's sup posed to be held, and I apply for the job. is apparently destined to be cast as a girl reporter. She was one in “The Mad Game,” and she’s one in this show. She is a police reporter again. Wise one, too. Knows everything and everybody in the underworld. And composed the questions to which there have to be answers. But we'd better page Will Hays. A criminal is painted as a swell guy in this show. Fact is, the whole “mob,” what we see of thdm, look ■like pretty good fellows. The high point is all action. Thrilling auto chase over country roads. Girl pursued by gangsters, gangsters by big shot gambler, gambler pursued by Dunn as de tective. Machine guns and smash up too. And this Trevor girl will steal all the lads hearts, or I can’t pick ’em. In “You Can’t Buy Everything” one has a right to expect some fine acting with May Robson and Lewis Stone, the latter being an old timer on the screen and the former a fairly recent addition, son’s and# it’s a good one. She The last line of this show is Rob turns back to her stage career as a .comedienne in a few places. She tries to make herself orn ery and un-likable but she has a tough time. SKULLDUGGERY BRINGS PATHOS; CROWDS HISS (Continued from Page One) and forget. “I have forgiven you long ago, Isabel, but I can never forget,” says Archibald, and with her sin forgiven, and Archibald at her side, the beautiful Isabel pass es on. As Archibald touches her chilling brow with his lips, the cur tain falls. Mary Bennet as Lady Isabel, the star, was charming and convincing in the most dramatic scenes. Bert Evans, as Archibald Carlyle, enact ed his part of the faithful husband with true understanding. Miss Le nore Casford, as his sister, the Lady Cornelia Carlyle, furnished the inspiration for many numerous laughs during the performance. Dr. Edward Buchanan, as the vil lain of the ‘‘mortgage on the old homestead” category, was an ex treme favorite with the crowd. The rest of the cast offered char acterizations which contributed to a performance that brings a full house each night. Karl Thune mann was Lord Severn, the gruff old lord with a heart of gold. Flor ence Shumaker handled the diffi cult part of ^Barbara Hare, the ‘‘other woman,” with finesse. Boyd Jackson was the confidential clerk on the estate of East Lynne. Dor othy Parks enacted the role of the faithful servant to her lady, and Mary Shore Mishler was the gos siping servant, Wilson. Henry Korn had the role of Rich ard Hare, fugitive from justice; Ernesto Knollin played the part of Justice Hare; Blair Alderman was the copper; and Peter Tugman, portrayed pale little William. Between acts, several entertain ing selections were given. Knollin and Blair Alderman appropriately sang that heartbreaking melody, "Where Is My Wandering Boy To night?’1 and were encored again, and again. Sally Elliot Allen, with appropriate gestures contributed to the atmosphere of the time, with a reading, “Curfew Shall Not Ring Tonight.’’ ANNUAL WEEKEND OF JUNIORS MAY 11 TO 13 (Continued from Page One) sight, and imagination so neces sary for a successful administra tion of the many features of Jun ior Weekend.’’ The canoe fete, always a bril liant spectacle, will be the main feature of this year’s program.

C. Clark, head of the history de partment, from Joseph Mayer, chairman of the Commission on : National Archives Survey in Wash j ington, D. C., asks Professor Clark ; lo accept the key position of the j state in a proposed national sur vey of local archives under CWA i auspices. Enclosed with the letter is an ex ! planation of the project which is planned to occupy eight weeks’ ' time and constitutes an inventory of documents bearing on the na | tion's institutions and history. "The purpose would be," according to the paper, “to uncover-and make available for public officials and students of governmental, econom ic, military, legal and social his | tory generally, most important 1 source materials which are at pres ! ent hidden away or heedlessly de J stroyed; to improve the archival practices of local American gov I ernmental units and make for uni 1 formity and comparability where now there is the widest divergence I and haphazard accumulation; and j to afford a reliable basis for more i careful selection and preservation I and for estimates of future archive ] building needs.” The communication continues: I "The inventory would in general j cover the evidence of settled social organization in the United States, and would include records of taxa tion, mortgages, roads, property titles and transfers, wills, vital statistics, the care of the poor and insane, adoptions, naturalizations, schools, militia and other military and naval organizations, etc.” A total of 2708 workers are to be employed should the proposal be accepted, and $585,444 is expected to be the total cost of the project. "No greater opportunity has ever been presented and will probably never again be given to secure a comprehensive inventory of the ba sic materials upon which public of ficials and students of social or ganization must depend for a more accurate and complete picture of the history and institutions of the country,” writes Mayer.
