The final choice for the queen Will also indicate her five co-rul ing princesses, who will sit beside her on May 10, 11, and 12. A parade of the contesting girls will be staged Monday at 12:15, according to an announcement made yesterday by Peggy Chess man, chairman of the Queen’s reign committee. Cars will take the honored coeds through the rampus and adjoining streets. Participants in the contest are: Klma Giles, a petite brunette of Portland. Miss Giles is playing a minor role in "Small Miracle” to be presented in the Guild theatre in the near future. She is particu larly interested in dramatics and dancing and enjoys a good game of golf. She is affiliated with the Sigma Kappa sorority. A small blond Tri Delt, Dorothy Anne Clark, also hails from Port land, and has as her chief interest and hobbies dramatics and travel ing. She has toured the middle west as well as many of the west ern states. Dark and reserved Margaret Jean Cooper, is interested in Eng lish and music. She has toured Europe and the United States. Her home is in Portland. Mary Morse, a dazzling blonde, tanned under California’s skies is the offering of the Kappa Alpha Theta house. Miss Morse is very fond of horse back riding and craves such athletic ventures as golf and swimming. ”Big brown eyes mark Marvel Twiss as being one of the out standing ten. She is “inclined to ward the dramatic arts” and has played in several college and high school productions. Pi Beta Phi claims this royal aspirant, as does the city of Portland. 'Tis rumored that gentlemen still prefer blondes and Anne Hounsell is no exception. An Al pha Chi Omega from Hood River, this young lady likes to spend her leisure time in the theatre or reading. A candidate from Hendricks hall is the lovely, olive-skinned Reva Herns who aspires to stenography and law. Her home is in Portland. "Sweet and unaffected” has been the description of June Yates throughout her three years of col lege life. June is affiliated with Alpha Gamma Delta and hails from Salem. Jane Vinnedge of Washington is not to be outdone by even the most beautiful of the candidates. She shines in a glory all her own, and if affiliated with the Gamma Phi Beta sorority. Dignity shall come last, so Fran ces Spence closes the "Big Ten." This blonde Chi Omega, who en joys golf, tennis and dancing, bears herself in true royal manner even without a crown. She lives in McMinnville. The girls receiving the most votes will rule the campus during the entire Junior weekend. The chosen queen will be crowned at the all campus luncheon by Ed Labbe, junior class president. The queen will reign over the Junior Prom and her barge will float down the Mill Race to make the official opening of the annual canoe fete. Voting will be by bal lot in the College Side Inn from 9 a. m. to 3 p. m. Tuesday. In For Jopcm Speaking of women preparing for marriage, the Japanese rate the prize idea. The "Bride’s School” of Dairen (more formally known as the “School of Life”) prepares girls to be perfect brides. Nineteen young ladies have just completed the course, and are en tering the marital market with full recommendations. The school was originated by Japanese women’s clubs to improve the conditions of family life. And just to jump to the other end of the scale, Russian girls are receiving military training. This course, administered by full fledged officers, is said to be as harsh as the ordinary male army. One of the congressional high lights at present is Mrs. Caroline O'Day, the state representative whom Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt helped put in office. It seems that congress takes note of "freshmen” quite as much as do colleges—and Caroline, be ing a newcomer to the house, was expected to sit back. Most of the freshmen members were easily suppressed, but not Mrs. O'Day. At the first meeting of the new mem bers, she blithely took charge, and before the hundred-odd men could say a word, she arranged all their plans, and invited them to a "get acquainted party at her house. The party was quite a success— a success which has more or less continued. Mrs. O'Day has aston ishingly become the organizer of the freshmen congressmen.

Just shut your eyes, and ; pick and you can’t go far wrong when you vote for any of the coed aspirants to student body offices this year. For in few ASUO po licital campaigns have there been four girls who ars so well qualifieu to hold student body offices. Adeie Sheehy of the Alpha Phi house and Virginia Proctor of the Delta Gamma house are both can didates for the position of ASUO secretary. Adeie, whose sunny temper and calm composure belie her red hair, has been in demand for campus activities since her freshman year. She has been a Thespian, a Kwama, secretary of the junior class, and a member of Phi Theta Upsilon, as well as being an active member of AWS. In addition, Adeie is president of her house and has served on nu merous committees. Although at present she has lit tle spare time, Adeie likes to knti, ride horses, and swim. When asked to comment on today's elec tion she exclaimed: “If our ticket wins I will be more than happy, since all competent and deserving students will have the opportunity to participate in campus activities instead of a chosen few.” Virginia Proctor, whose cheerful smile has won many friends for her on the campus, has likewise been outstanding in activities. She is an active member of the YWCA and AWS, was secretary of her sophomore class, member of Kwama, and has been chairman of several dances and functions. Although Virginia’s major is journalism she has a passion for collecting penguins, ducks, anu other china animals for her room. She is also an enthusiastic swim mer. Virginia is treasurer of her house. The two candidates for the head of senior women are Eleanor Nor blad of Pi Beta Phi and Roberta Moody of Gamma Phi Beta. Elea nor’s ability to make a success of all that she undertakes and her charming personality have made her well known in the University. She has been a member of Thes pian, Kwama, and Phi Theta Up silon. Likewise she has worked in the YWCA and AWS and has been selected to serve on a number of committees. As for hobbies Eleanor likes to knit, swim, and ride horseback. She is enthusiastic about the plat form in her party’s ticket that creates a position for an indepen dent student, since in her opinion, the independent students have not had enough voice in campus ac tivities. A never-failing smile and a winning personality — these two characteristics have made and re tained an ever increasing number of friends for Roberta Moody. This year she attained the honor of be ing selected as one of the Univer sity students to have her name put in the “Who's Who” for American colleges. She was a member of Kwama and Phi Theta Upsilon, has worked on both the Emerald and Oregana, and has been on many committees. “In my opinion the greatest val ue of our ticket is that it would establish a precedent for elections on the merit of candidates,” she declared. “Polities would be on a fair and clean basis instead of the present spoils system.” EVERYTHING . . . <1 (‘ponds upon good vision.
