MEN'S SUITS Cleaned and Pressed Called for and Delivered NEW SERVICE LAUNDRY Phone 825 839 High Street Dumb Freshman Crooned to Sleep In Local Theatre A dumb freshman has been re ported to have adopted a local theater as his dormitory. With droopy eyelids and tired ;feet, the yearling was seen to en ' ter the portals of a local show house about 9 o’clock, expecting to be entertained by a juicy murder “meller-drammer” that was billed. A musical production, starring the nation’s leading crooner comprised the other part of the double bill. His singing of the song hits of several months ago seemed to serve as a soothing potion to the strained fatigued nerves of one fa tigued freshman who was tired of the “hustle and bustle of the city.” It was about 10:30. The hand some Bing beamed forth from the silver screen, crooning the big hit of the show. This was the last straw. The frosh slumped in his seat and was soon dreaming of the days when he could “make hay while the sun shined.” At 11 o'clock he was still peace fully sleeping. Midnight! One o’clock! About 1:45 a. m. the in dolent freshman awoke from his deep slumber with a start. It must have been a “church mouse”—or perhaps a “theater mouse” that awakened him from his senseless stupor. He came to his feet immediately. The theater was shrouded in dark ness. The lad rushed to the doors —they were securely locked for the night! And so what? That was what the prisoner wanted to know. Finally, after almost giving up, he wandered behind the stage and found an outside exit that was locked from the inside. It opened! Scampering through deserted streets, the embarrassed freshman wended his way to his home—and a good bed!

Guild Players Will Appear In Two Cities Aslant], Roseburg Invites Presentations of ‘The Amazons’ Rehearsals Are Started as Players Prepare For Season Having accepted an invitation to play in Roseburg and Ashland sometime near the middle of Jan uary, and having already started work on two of next term’s plays, the University Dramatics Players are preparing for a busy winter season. “The Amazons,” a rollicking farce by Sir Arthur Wing Pinero, has been selected as the play for the first production, which will be presented in the two southern Ore gon cities and then on the cam pus shortly afterward. The cast, which will consist mostly of Eu gene students due to the necessity of rehearsing during the Christmas vacation, has not been definitely selected as yet. Various members of the faculty, Eugene people not connected with the University, and regular students are to participate as well as the dramatic students. The author, Sir Arthur Pinero, who died just a few days ago at the age of 79, wrote over 55 plays during his lifetime, some of his most famous being ‘‘The Second Mrs. Tanqueray,” ‘‘Trelawney of the 'Wells’,” ‘‘Enchanted Garden” and the “Magistrate.” The "Ama zons" deals with a British mar chioness who was so disappointed that her daughters weren’t boys that she raised them identically as she would have trained sons. This worked very nicely until the girls \ grew up. Then complications arose, for they fell in love in spite of their mother's precautions. A cast composed entirely of Guild Hall Players has been select ed to take the roles in “Dangerous Corner,” a very unusual mystery play by J. B. Priestly. This play is already in rehearsal, but will not be ready for presentation for sev eral weeks yet. Those in the cast are Dorothy Parks, Althea Peter son, Virginia Wappenstein, Mary tine New, Ted Karafotias, Milton Pillette, and Bill Dougherty. According to Mrs. Ottilie Sey bolt, head of the dramatic division, the playing group will be divided into three parts during the winter j term, each section presenting a play. The third play will not be i selected until the beginning of next i term. Horace Robinson, instruc- ' tor in dramatics, will direct the ! third play, Mrs. Seybolt directing < the first two.

Those whose heads are in a swirl wondering if such stakes car. be reduced to common bettable media, are wondering if the poker fest ever will get past the “poker face” stage. Regailed in gowrns she wore when she was acclaimed belle of the Yukon, the toast of miners who searched for gold under the northern, lights, Klondike Kate will guarantee that no "cold decks” will enter into the tounrament. be found of the missing fliers whose frantic massage “Will land in the sea” urged rescuers on.

Last year there were near ly a thousand fewer titles issued than in ‘32, and the greatest drop was in books on education with general literature, biography and agriculture coming next. The only gains in output were books on mu sic, philology and fine arts. Over 3.000 titles were issued altogether af which only a little more than 1.000 were new editions of pre viously printed books.

What would an Emerald be-Without shears to clip out the stories of other papers and insert them as “hot stuff” ? And the answer is: Wee Willie wants his shears back—please.
