Marian John ston has charge of the travel group. There is a possibility of the ori gin of a new group if a sufficient number of women are interested.

Theater Revue McDonald “Design for Liv ing’’ with Fredric March, Gary Cooper, Miriam Hop kins, and Edward Everett Horton. COLONIAL — “Stand Up and Cheer” with Warner Baxter, Madge Evans, John Boles, and Shirley Temple. ^HOULD a woman rightfully k hold more than one man ? ’ Yes,” declares Miriam Hopkins, and she argues and proves it, too, in a most entertaining manner as she takes the feminine lead in "Design for Living.” This Paramount production is no problem picture. It is a comedy based upon a serious and provoca tive thought. As one critic re marked, "It's Lubitsch having fun.” Ernst Lubitsch, who direct ed “The Student Prince” and “The Patriot” is also managing this pro duction. The plot is built around the ef forts of Miriam Hopkins to prove that women are polygamous and that they need two men at least to fill their lives completely. She will give women new ideas on the sub ject of love. Fredric March and Gary Cooper, the two male leads take the parts of impetuous playwright and art ist. “Design for Living” will run the rest of this week at the Mc Donald theater. Leave It to Psmith It will take more than darkness, fire or flood to stop the produc tion of the University theater’s “Leave It to Psmith.’’ Last night a regular rehearsal for the play was scheduled. Yet when all the lights on the campus went out and most of the buildings closed up, “Leave It to Psmith’’ players met with Mrs. Ottilie Seybolt, their di rector, and practiced their parts by candle light. With such stamina and gumption evident on the part of this play personnel, a very good piece of work may be expected.

H a ■) .1 a a a a a a a a 3 a 3 a | 3 5 Oregon Daily Emerald “flie Student’s Paper” CAMPUS COSTUMES By MARY GRAHAM “It isn’t raining rain to me, “It's raining daffodils.” nr'O the poet who penned these lines comfortably ensconsed ! by a roaring fire and merely gaz ing out at the pelting drops, rain might be daffodilic. But to those who have to go out in the rain it’s anything but flowery. But the day of the drab, buttoned-up effect on rainy days is past and now fair co-eds sally forth in the rain play ing the part of the aforementioned daffodils. For those who dislike wearing ‘slickers’ there is a new skirt and sweater suit made of rainproof cloth which resembles a jersey. The skirt is made on straight lines and the jacket can be had in buttoned | or zippered syle. Fitting tightly around the waistline and having a stand-up collar, these jackets have an added feature - deep, slip-in pockets which zipper, too. For the eradication of wet feet and the resulting sniffles we re commend the cute new galoshes. These, made like a short riding boot, are topped with a border of fur and come in almost every color one would ask for. For evening these come in white topped with white bunny fur, so you see there is no reason for spoiled evening slippers either. These galoshes are so cute that one might just wear them to her destination and take her shoes along ! Wonder of wonders! Rainproof stockings are now being sold ringless gunmetal with black feet and heels, a perfect Godsend to those who are partying on rainy days and don’t like spoiled hose and silk dresses. Ultra-Violet Light Shows Changes In Shades of Stones A demonstration of fluorescence under the ultra-violet light was re cently put on display in the main entrance of McClure hall. The case appears at first to be filled with drab looking rocks but when the electric button is pushed the rocks take on shades of blues, oranges and greens. The principle is based on the fact that some bodies possess a property of giving off, when illu minated, light of a color differing from their own and from that of the incident light. The light given off is usually of greater wave length than the incident light and the violet and ultra-violet rays are the best exciters of it. A case of precious and semi precious stones is on display in Condon hall. Examples of tourma line, amber, garnet, zircon, opal, coral, and other specimens are shown. There is a small bottle of Klondike gold, which was mined two years ago by Warren D. Smith, and a sample of gold in quartz from the Philippine Islands. There is now a gold rush on in the Phil ippines. A small collection of agates and jasper from Newport, Oregon is included in the display. Pure Quill (Continued From page 2) night. It is rumored that they | served real beer. Tsk. Tsk. While the I’lii l’sis were busily engaged in their revelry the Delta had a quiet little dancing party at their chapter house. Outside the fact that the musicians barged through a “wrong" door not a thing happened—much. Sophomores Will Hold Drive for ("lass Fees Plans for a sophomore class membership drive were started at ! a meeting of sophomore represen-' tatives Tuesday. Fred Hammond and Martha McCall were elected by the delegates as co-chairmen of the drive. The sophomore class this year is , in need of financial support with J which to carry on the customary sophomore class functions, and the best plan seemed to be an organ ized membership drive. Among the various activities \ which the class will sponsor are the Sophomore Informal, to be held December 1. the VVhiskerino Shuffle, and various other func- j ■ ions. All class members are urged ■o support their class by paying he fifty cent fee. 1 Game Motif Predominates At Homecoming Dance Saturday Night Football Motif Predominates Football, the king of sports, will be glorified Saturday evening when the University of Oregon alumni and dads gather at McAr thur court to witness the tradition al Homecoming dance, the climax of each year’s homecoming festivi tiess.

Exchange Dinners Popular Exchange dinners continue to hold social prominence throughout An influx of social activities, stimulated by living organization pledge dances, marks the remain ing weeks of fall term. The dance season was inaugurated this past week-end with ten organizations honoring their new members at such affairs.

Patrons at the Phi Delta Theta dance were Prof, and Mrs. N. B. I Only Heard TF you asked some of the Oregon A co-eds how they liked the rally dance Saturday, you would prob ably receive a very cool reply. We heard that there were plenty of men in the stag line—but there were also more than enough wom en on the side lines. The only trouble was—they just couldn't gef together. (We know that the men aren’t that bashful, i There were so many pledge dances last week-end that almost every one had a date for one of them at least. And those who did not, remained silent. Did any one hear about the co ed who had a date for one of the fraternity dances but did'nt seem to know which one. She thought she knew who she was going with. And were the “Sisters” in a quandry? They just knew that it would be a costume dance since she was dreseds in an informal. To make the evening complete, it wasn’t even the man she thought it was going to be. In case you have not guessed, it -was an Open House date. We heard that there was a “leaf fight” outside of the BETA house Saturday night. Well, boys, we thought you could do better than that. Zane, Prof, and Mrs. E. C. Lesch, Prof, and Mrs. Roy Bryson and Mr. and Mrs. Howard A. Hall. To the Sigma Alpha Epsilon af fair were invited Dr. and Mrs. A. L. Alderman, Dr. and Mrs. J. P. MacKinnon, Prof. W. A. Dahlberg and Miss Lucy Norton. For the coming week Alpha Xi Delta is the only organization hav ing scheduled a dance. This affair will be given Friday evening. Sat urday evening has been left free of house dances in favor of the an nual Homecoming dance, an in formal affair. NORM (Santa Claus) HAMP TON and PETE (skimmilk BUCK were the main attractions at the BETA dance. We shouldn’t for get BUD SHOEMAKE, fastest white man on the campus. We noticed that the famous ATO paddle was used as a decora tion at their dance. And the fresh men were mighty glad to see it used for something besides "hack ing.” We want to compliment RALPH SCHOMP on his artistic decora tions for the PHI DELT dance. A certain THETA pledge has been having SAE songs sung to her lately, and she seems to like it. Tell us, RUTH, do you enjoy the song, or do you just naturally like MRS. HOOD’S little boy, CAROL? We know it must have been in teresting to see the prize fight at the ALPHA PHI hallowe'en party last night. When BARBARA FAIRHUR3T and ALICE BRAD FORD come to blows every one sits up and takes notice. Ahd the crazy style show given by the freshmen was amusing. Can’t you just see JANE CHAP LER in some queer but cunning outfit ? GEORGE KOTCHICK would like every one to know that he still hasn't a cold. W’hat a relief that must be to JANET McMIC KEN! Another BETA pin has found its way to a prety girl's heart. DICK McCLUNG and NANCY RICH ARDS finally decided there was something nice about "going steady.” * * * We want to know which KAPPA SIG pledge is cutting a certain football players throat. It's the topic of conversation around the campus.
