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.

TC7ITH the economic and political
™ conditions in such a chaotic
state, one can't help wondering
what the future holds for us. For
j hundreds of years, the followers of
Christianity have attempted to es
! tablish its religion with the objec
tive of bringing about a better un
derstanding of man. Yet there
have been religious wars and now
headlines in the papers glare heav
ily about the political wars. What
has happened to human beings ?
Has man become only an animal of
greed, desire for glory, and the dis
regard of everything else save his
own satisfaction to gain a certain
goal ?

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,

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.’’

Clark Asked
ToTakePart
In Inventory
Project Planned to Last
Eight Weeks
Survey Aims to Make Conference
Material Available for
Student Use
A letter received recently by R.
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. "But
whether this project will be ap
proved or will be carried to a suc
j cessful conclusion after approval
