NUMBER 85 Resume of the Day’s News By the Associated Press —--- FEBRIJARV 23 Relief Bill Deadlocked WASHINGTON — Both under cover and surface efforts to untar. Carran prevailing wage amend ment has thrown the $4,880,000,' 000 relief bill apparently ended it failure today, and the measure re mained as tightly deadlocked a: for a week past. 1. An extremely cold shoulder was turned by Democratic leaders to ward a “concession” proposal b> Senator McCarran (D-Nev). Wit!' the approval of American Feder ation of Labor chiefs, he suggested an addition to his amendment tc authorize the president to regulate the hours men might work at the prevailing wage. It would, he said, prevent an increase in the cost of 1he program. Czechs Jail Officials PRAHA, Czechoslovakia — Cze choslovakia clapped ten high of ficials into jail today as investiga tion of the arrest.of three Germans last night led to the very doors of an alleged espionage ring. Three of those arrested were de scribed as personages of the min istry of War. | Although authorities refused to reveal the names of the officials held, they indicated their belief that an “espionage syndicate” ex isted. The ten, together with the three Germans, were said to be spying for Austria and Hungary. Senate Passes Land Bill SALEM — After a battle which lasted almost three hours the sen ate of the Oregon legislature to day passed the measure urged by the federal department of agricul ture for acquisition of privately owned forest lands in the state to place them in national reserves. The vote was 21 to 9. Opponents of the measure fought the bill on the grounds the acquisi tion of the timber lands would re move them from the tax rolls. Many counties were opposed to the issue, but proponents argued no sale or acquisition could be made without the approval of the gover nor and the forest conservation commission created under the act.

Burg to Tell Strange Tales Of Adventure Explorer Will Address Students, Eugeneans At Colonial Tuesday Lecture Is Free to Student Body With the lore of the sea, oi strange adventures in foreign lands, with all the exciting expe riences Gulliver ever experienced forming a vast background for fascinating' stories of the wonders of the world, Amos Burg, Oregon’s own explorer will address students and townspeople at the Colonial theater Tuesday and Wednesday afternoon and evening. The Tuesday lectures will be free to students having ASUO cards. Lifelong Adventurer Piloting a creaking, groaning square-rigger into the teeth of a cold, biting gale with the salt spray beating against his face; and. directing the cruise of the “Ca margo,” palatial yacht of Julius F. Fleischman, in a round the world cruise have been but part of the adventures of Amos Burg. Shipping out at the age of 14. Burg made his first long ocean voyage. Since that time he has been around the world more than a half dozen times, traveled in boto the Arctic and the Anarctic cir cles, acted as photographer for William W. Beebe in his explora tions in the Galapagos, and cruised in waters that are branded by sail ors as the “hell spot of the seas.’ Back From Bottom of World He recently returned from a trip which took him to the south ernmost tip of the world. Cruising among the islands at the bottom of South America Burg gathered invaluable material among the wild savages in that region for the National Geographic. Burg was the first man to ever travel the length of the Columbia river, from its source in the Can adian mountains, out across the bar into the Pacific in a canoe. He has traveled the length of the Mo Kensie river in Canada, crossed the mountains into Alaska, and canoed down the mighty Yukon in his 17-foot bark. He was a student at the Univer sity in 1926-27-2S and majored in journalism. Several of his articles have, appeared in recent issues of the National Geographic.

Roland Hayes Closes Finest Of Student Concert Series Tenor Brings Enjoyment to Large Audience By Jay Raeffe Bringing- to a close what is re garded as one of the finest conctr series that the associated students of the University of Oregon have ever presented, Roland Hayes, tenor, found himself warmly greet ed by one of the largest assem blages to gather for a purely mu sical occasion in McArthur court. It is reported from authoritative sources that six thousand persons i met last evening to cordially ap plaud, enjoy and to take away witn them memories of the inimitable, | stylistic and highly refined art of Mr, Hayes and the equally artistic support tendered by his accompan ist, Percival Parham. Handel Honored Mr. Hayes opened his program i with Handel, commemorating that composer’s one hundred and fif tieth natal anniversary, numbers by Karl Philip Emauel Bach round ed out this classical group, the per formance of which needs' no criti cal comments. We have referred tc the inimitable, stylistic art of Mr. Hayes and by those phrases we point specifically to that won drous purity of tone quality and flexibility of tone manipulation, the even smoothness with which the tone is spun out to build up his phrases. Caruso Story Cited There is the story of Hayes’ in spirational episode with a Caruso record. We seriously doubt that Caruso even in his younger, less operatic years, ever sang with such smoothness and perfect le gato as Mr. Hayes has trained himself to be capable of.

Customs Plan to Instruct Pledges in Campus Traditions United support of the heads of all sororities was added yesterday to the campus organizations that have previously announced their in tention to support the planned en forcement of Oregon traditions. Earlier this week the inter-fra ternity council publicly declared that it was soldidly behind the movement for enforcing old cus toms on the campus. Thursday, the associated women students, headed by Catherine Coleman, pledged their approval and support of the revival of traditions during spring term. Berg Is Optimistic Bill Berg, chairman of the tradi tions committee, announced yes terday that it is expected that other campus organizations will lend their influence to bring about enforcement of the laws. Josephine Waffle, president of the heads of houses, said last night of the support of that group: “Heads of houses, in voting to back the traditions movement, fairly well indicates the attitude of all women in living organizations on this question. “We house presidents regret the dying out of Oregon traditions which were active when we entered as freshmen. We plan to aid in their revival by careful instruction to women pledges and freshmen who enter school next fall.’ Doctor Reaches Oregon Campus Doctor M. E. Hesdorfer, who is taking- the position vacated by Doctor S. D. Caniparoli, former as sistant physician, arrived on the campus yesterday from the Uni versity of Minnesota where he has served for the past three and a half years in the student health service. Mrs. Hesdorfer accompa nied him. Scholastically and in actual experience, Hesdorfer is qualified for this position.

Phi, medical fraternity, Sigma Xi, honorary, and of the Minnesota Academy of Science.

Those discharged were Ruthann Breitmayer, who has been confined tfor two weeks with the mumps, Zollie Volchok, John Zehntbaur, Wayne Tyrell, and Dick Williams. Heart-Rending Scenes in the Playhouse Delight Audience The Very Little theatre wa3 a playhouse in the Ne^r York of 1837 1857 last night, where the audience hissed the villain, cheered the hero and was “moved to tears,” by the melerdrama, “The Streets of New York,” under the direction of Art C. Gray. The tricky exits, super-climactic curtain scenes, perfect timing of the off-stage noises, and consistent burleque (to the nth degree) mood which carried throughout the en tire play, and kept the audience chuckling, with periodical roars of laughter that “shook the house” were indicative of a masterful piece of direction. The classical plot of a scurrilous banker embezzling the entire for tune of a sea captain, and leaving his entire family in the most abject poverty was the revival of Dion Boucicault’s, “The Streets of New York.” But virtue triumphs, and the sea captain’s family and the impoverished gentility of Brooklyn Heights are rewarded in the end. But Gideon Bloodgood, “the rat," is left alone to live a better life, by the noble gesture of the noble sea captain’s noble son. Not the least of the evening’s en tertainment were the entr’actes, in the true music hall manner. A trio, Mrs. Genevieve Tugman, Mrs. Mazie Guistina, and Mrs. Mildred Moore, opened the performance with “New York Town,” and later sang “On a Sunday Afternoon,” with all the verve and charm of a “Black Crook” chorus. Henry Cole man “wowed” the spectators with two solos, “The Bowery,” and a side-splitting cockney tough’s ver sion of "The rich gets all the gravy and the poor gets all the blame.” The acting honors go to Ed Buchanan, as the villain who was (Please turn.to page two) Staters to Meet Trojans In Coast Title Tilt Next Week Fans Predict Battle 3 Oregon Players to Make Final Appearance The University of Oregon basket ball crew, riding on the crest of praise issuing from Northwest cage fans as a result of its fine showing against the Washington Huskies, will dock the Duck hoop ship at 7:30 tonight and end its 1935 cruise when it encounters the Oregon State hoopmen at Mc A.rthur court. The game will mark the final ap pearance of both teams in the northern division maple race. The Beavermen, however have one more series on their slate, against Ihe Southern California Trojans, southern conference winners, next week. Slats Gill’s combination won the Northwest crown by beating Idaho Tuesday night while their xrch-rivals from Eugene were lend ing a helping hand by pinning back the ears of the runner-up Husky men. Tonight's tilt will be the first as champions. Ducks Have Hopes The Duck cagers’ recent brilliant performances, coupled with the fact that the Staters were barely able to eke out a win over the Reinhartmen in their last game, in dicates that the Corvalils aggrega tion wil have no easy time with the Lemon-Green outift this eve ning. Although the clash is just anoth er ball game as far as champion ships are concerned, it promises to be the most exciting of the year. The Eeavers, who have won the first three of the four-game series by 4718, 33-31, and 34-27 scores, will be striving to make it a clean sweep. Oregon, in the other hand, will do its best to avoid four suc cessive trimmings and also to win the distinction of being the first five to defeat the champs. Sum Dubbed “Rubinoff” If play against the Huskies may be regarded as any criterion, Sam Liebowitz and Captain Bill Berg will be the men for the Gillmen to watch. “Liebo,” dubbed “Rubin off” by Seattle fans, gave one of the best performances seen in the Puget sound city this season, and won the admiration of even the staunchest Washingtonians by ex hibiting rare skill in passing, shooting, and all-around floor work and ball-handling. Sam is slated to open in one of the guard berths. Berg, who will be playing hi3 last game under the Lemon-Green banner, helped lead Oregon to vic tory over Washington by shoving in two field goals at critical mom ents of the contest and by steady ing the less experienced Webfoots. Berg will likely replace either Johnny Lewis or Rollie Rourke in the starting lineup. Completing the first-string team will be Willis Jones, high-scoring center, and Glenn Sanford, close-checking (Please turn to page three) Barker to Speak To Faculty Group Burt Brown Barker, vice-presi dent of the University, is to speak on his trip to Japan at an informal faculty party Sunday afternoon, March 3, at 3:30 in alumni hail.
