Norway and Russia (Continual from I’ape One) “The brillance of Leningrad is due to Catherine the Second (Catherine the Great). She fin ished the great palace of Pet rohof. Petrohof is the great royal residence built by Peter the Great. It is as magnificent as Versailles but does not show such good taste. One room is brilliantly decorated with amber walls and ceilings. "Opposite to public opinion, these palaces are maintained ex actly as they were during the reign of the Czars. The little pal ace where the royal family was before they were taken away by revolutionists was not marred by the marauders. The Czar's desk is exactly as he left it." Travel in Russia was very com fortuble, Bowen stated. The people were kind and courteous and as | far as he could see they were happy and contented. Everyone was in working clothes but there j were no signs of dire poverty or rags. Bowen points out that he did not go to Russia to study its social conditions. Most people, he observed, left Russia with the same prejudices he came in with, each one confirming what he was looking for. As far as Dr. Bowen's own observations were concerned he came to the conclusion that most things he had read about Russia were false.

Frankl, one of the foremost modern designers. “One trend of decoration is the international modern or functional design furniture which is straight line work. This is the sort of thing in which Paul Frankl is interested. The other type of interior decora tion is the classic modern, which includes all French and English 18th century furniture,” Miss Frasier paused while she answered the telephone in her bright, sunny office and continued, “Today the vogue is to use small er scale furniture in modern forms, making the room seem much larg er. “The vogue for white is now passe and the color trend has turned toward pastel shades for walls and backgrounds. Pastel yel low. dusty pink, chalky blue and chalky coral are outstanding in present color schemes. “In 1024 the French republic asked the United States to place an exhibit in their decorative arts exhibition. The United States had to reply that this country had no industrial designers who were qualified to participate. “Between 1924 and 1934 there has developed in the United States a group of outstanding designers in New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles. This group has developed as a result of foreign influence of men from Vienna and France. Our furniture, textiles, clothes, and art have all been definitely influenced by other countries.” LOOK YOUR BEST for the Sophomore Informa.1 Got a first class shine at TREE TOP SHINE PARLOR 758 East 11th Street Miss Frasier smiled genially and said, “It is interesting to note that the movies have had a great in fluence over American culture. Be fore 1924 our “coutumiers” bought clothes from France. Joan Craw ford was the woman who started creating her own styles, and now Hollywood is setting the example for Paris fashions.” Before the war France was the dictator in all art France lead with the Beaux Art school, interior dec orating, clothes, and music, Miss Frasier said. “Just since the war have we come into our own. Paul Frankl came to this country 25 years ago from Vienna. We can thank him for educating the American public. The beauty of Frankl's modern furniture is that it is functional and simple. He has an entire floor in Radio City supplied with his furniture. “History has shown that there are al>ays reverses, and now 18th century furniture is coming back, although it has never actually gone out.” Lutheran Students To Have Seminar The Lutheran Student associa tion of Oregon is backing a relig ious seminar under the direction of Rev. William Sehoeler, Litt. D. The first meeting of the group will be held in the YMCA hut next Sunday afternoon at 5:00. The topic for discussion will t>e "Jesus' World and the World To day." Following the seminar re freshments will be served and an informal program will be offered. Closer Contact Object of Change In English K A laboratory technique has been adapted to the teaching: of English K this year. The purpose is to bring closer contact between all the students and the instructor so that language errors may be more rapidly eliminated from the work of those who made low ratings on the Eriglish placement test. All the students meet in one sec tion instead of several as in pre vious years, for such instruction as may be given in lecture form or in mass testing. This saves much useless repetition of the same teaching material by the instruct or. Small laboratory sections of eight to fifteen students then meet so that individuals may work on drills directly under supervi sion. Tables are provided for the small sections so that it is possi ble to have some informality and to permit the supervisor to move about easily among the students as they work. The tests used with the large groups are designed to find out exactly what points the students do not know so that the laboratory instruction may be most effective in correcting difficulties at once. “It is more practical to try to teach a student something which he does not know than to teach him something you think he may not know,” said Professor L. Ken neth Shumaker, who is in charge of the English bureau in which the new technique is being applied. The instructor entertains great hopes for better results from the changes made in this year's in struction in English K. Rooks Hand (Continued from Petite One) rooks were making one. Plainly tiring under the fire, tthe rooks were twice forced into their own territory, only to hold the charges of Jean LaCau, frosh fullback when he repeatedly fumbled low passes from the frosh center. Even the bullet passes of Tom Blackman failed to find their mark as Oregon resorted to a passing attack late in the second half. Time and again the ball smacked the hands and bodies of receivers only to bound clear. Alexander Scores for Rooks Five minutes after the start of the second half the rooks scored their touchdown. With the ball in possession of the frosh on their own 29-yard line, fourth down, Blackman, attempt ing to kick, juggled the ball and j was smothered on the 18. It was the rooks' ball on downs. Ben Ell1 hit left guard for two yards to the 1 frosh 16, where he was stopped by LaCou, and on the next play Ell j drove at right guard for six more j to the 10, where Blackman dropped ; him. Alexander skipped through a j hole at center to the 6, where La Cou nailed him. It was a first down for the rooks. On the next play Alexander skirted his left end . for a touchdown. Ell's place kick. CLEAN UP! DRESS UP! For the Sophomore Informal Phone 252 DOMESTIC LAUNDRY — Dry Cleaning — 143 Seventh Avenue West Classes Have 47% Increase New Interest Shown In Home Economies That there is a much greater interest in home economics courses than ever before is shov/n by the fact that the enrollment in the home economics department has increased 47 per cent over last, year. At the present time there are 266 students enrolled in these classes. It was necessary to create extra sections in the clothing se lection, clothing construction, and foods classes to meet the increased demand. Miss Alice M. Reid, who taught last year in San Jose State Teach ers’ College in California has taken over the classes formerly taught by Miss Mary Elizabeth Starr who is now teaching at the University of Washington. The increased enrollment has made necessary an addition to the staff. Mrs. Emma Jean Peterson, who attended Oregon State college and Cornell university will have charge of the classes in home management, child development, and will assist with the clothing construction courses. Mrs. Peter son has taught in Oregon high schools, and was an instructor in household management while at Cornell. with Alexander holding' the hall, split the bars squarely to add the extra point. With a 9 point lead tucked safe ly away in the bonnets of the young Beavers, they settled down to a defensive game, showing but occasional bursts of drive. In the meantime, the Oregon frosh pecked at the rook goal—Jimmy Nichol son, sensational young frosh half back doing heavy duty work with the ball carrying. Seldom did he receive a punt from the wary toe of Joe Enzler, rook kicker. Jean LaCau played a vicious defensive game, matching tackles with Bob Hinman, frosh end, Merle Peters, husky ex-Jeffer son high school tackle, and a fiery 165 pound halfback named Tony Verdonda. The game was slowed up by nu merous penlaties, the rooks suffer ing losses of 65 yards while the frosh took it on the chin for five. Starting lineups of the game were: Rooks Frosh Coons .LE. Hinman Conn .LT. Morris Cagle .LG. Giovanini McCalley .C. Taylor Whitney .RG. Stevens Sterling .RT. Peters Wendlick .RE. Yerby Enzler .Q. Anet Alexander .LH. Buroker Mercer .RH. Blackman Ell .F.

Tall Roping New York seems to have given Chick Byers, of Texas, world’s trick and fancy roping champion, a chance to get his teeth into some real lassoing. Apparently Cowboy Byers is about to rope the Empire State building. But it's only an illusion; A1 Smith’s tower ing structure is some 15 blocks away. EX-STUDENT AT YALE Donald H.
