Homecoming Play
Has Strange Cast
“Bury the Dead,” a new anti
war play to be given by the Uni
versity theatre as a feature of
Homecoming weekend, will be one
of the most specialized plays pre
sented in several years with its cast
of over thirty members including
a Latin and Hebrew speaking rabbi
and priest, and a singing soldier.
There are no individual leads in
the play and the cast is predomi
nately masculine although there
are seven important feminine char
acters. The large cast is divided
into three groups: the burial detail
including the sergeant, captain,
and soldiers. Gerry Smith, Wallie
Boyle, George Bikman, Bill Suther
land, Bud Winstead, and Jack
Speer will play in this section.
The second group of the cast is
the six dead soldiers, who refused
to be buried, Bob Henderson, Ern
est Savage, Milton Pillette, Ken
neth Kirtley, Dave Wilson, and
Adrian Martin; the three generals,
George F. Smith, Bob Biddle, and
Gordon Williams; the priest and
rabbi, Robert Vosper and C. D.
Sisby; and the newspaper reporter
and his editor, Lester Miller and
Dan Clark II.
The army doctor and his stenog
rapher, Don Childers and Wendall
Brooks; Bevins and Charley, "gun
fodder” at the barricade; Ed Hearn
and Jack Lewis are in the third di
vision of the cast. A banker, Roy
Knudsen, three business men, Ed
gar Wulzen, Bob Elliott, and Or
ville Hopkins, and the official ra
dio speaker, William Dougherty,
complete the men’s cast.
Women’s roles are taken by Mar
jorie Tucker, Adelyn Shields, Pat
Neal, Eleanor Pitts, Marian Bauer,
and Virginia Scoville.
Geology Class Observes
Glacial Changes on Trip
Twenty-five students of the gen
eral geology class made their first
field trip of the year up Collier
glacier Sunday looking for speci
mens and observing the results of
the retreat of the glacier.
Leaders of the party were Dr.
W. D. Smith, Lloyd Ruff, and A.
L. Lomax, all of the University of
Oregon. The party started from
Eugene in automobiles, and drove
as far as Frog Camp where they
picked up some of the party who
had arrived the night before.
The group hiked up the slope of
the glacier, and although they did
not reach the top, gained an eleva
tion of approximately 7200 feet.
During the hike which was about
13 miles round trip, they observed
a lake about 400 feet in diameter,
made by the receding of the gla
cier. Lava beds and a cinder cone
covering the lower end of the gla
cier were also seen. >

An overtime period was neces
sary to decide the Sigma Hall
Sammy game. Both teams checked
well and neither was able to score
during the prescribed period. Each
team was given five plays, run off
alternately, to see which could get
farthest into the other’s territory.
Sigma hall advanced about 20
yards past the center of the field,
while holding the Sammies to no
g in, and took the game by a 1-0
score.

Abas Quartet
Gives Concert
In Music Hall
By KEN KIRTLEY
Playing to a small but enthus
iastic audience in the auditorium
of the school of music, the Abas
string quartet gave an entertain
ing concert last night.
The musicians displayed a re
markable unison of tone, the four
individuals often seeming as one
unit. The selections of the pro
gram were brilliantly contrasted.
The numbers of the modernistic
composers Bloch and Schulhoff
were of especial interest.
The entire program was well
balanced and well within the un
derstanding of the average student.
Tiie last two concerts are to be
given October 26, and November 9.
Mrs. T. N. Holniquist to
Leave to Join Husband
Mrs. Thelma Nelson Holmquist,
secretary of the engineering divi
sion and physics department, is
leaving this weekend to join her
husband who has a teaching fel
lowship at Purdue university, In
diana. She received her B.A. in
journalism from Oregon in 1933
and is a member of Phi Beta Kap
pa, liberal arts honorary, and Theta
Sigma Phi, journalism honorary for
women.
Miss Kathrine Parsons, daugh
ter of Prof. Phillip A. Parsons,
head of the sociology department,
will take her place. She received
her B.A. in 193f> and is a member
of Pi Delta Phi, French honorary,
and Sigma Delta Pi, Spanish hon
orary.
Douglas Orme Will Lead
Eugene Junior Orehestra
Douglas Orme, University ban-l
director, will resume his duties as
conductor of the Eugene junior
symphony orchestra again this
year.
The orchestra, organized by Mr.
Orme last year, will play one out
of town concert in addition to its
Eugene appearances. The first re
hearsal is called for Saturday, Oc
tober 17.
Ducks Return
(Continued front page three)
was a weak spot for each team.
Stanford averaged a mere 30 yards
in eight boots, while the Webfoots
averaged a measly 21 yards per
attempt.
Next Saturday in Portland the
Ducks will fight Ted Banks’ Van
dals. The Vandals, in spite of two
conference defeats, 22-0 by Wash
ington and 14-0 by Washington
Slate, present a formidable eleven
this year. A good rushing game
combined with clover pass work is
boasted by the Idaho team.
Pass defense and perhaps a little
work on an aerial attack will no
doubt occupy of the Webfoots’ time
this week in preparation to Satur
day’s tilt.
Subscriptions only $3.00 per year.
Psychology Lah
To Receive Film
On Auto Fatigue
Notice that a 1000-foot sound
film, “Take It Easy” which covers
the subject of auto fatigue and its
effect on the motorist, will be pre
sented as a gift to the psychology
laboratory as a gift from the Chry
sler corporation at Detroit was re
cently received by L. F. Beck, as
sistant professor of psychology.
The film will be of exceptional val
ue in the instruction of classes. It
will be shown in class some day
this week.
The subject is based on observa
tions by Andrew H. Ryan, M.D.,
who for the past several years has
devoted himself to research prob
lems of occupation, nutrition, and
hygiene in industry.
The subject of auto fatigue is of
great importance because of the
dariger it presents deterioration or
impairment of human functions,
which should be precise while driv
ing, and lowering of efficiency in
the performance of work.
University Library Fines
Are Greater Than OSC’s
Oregon students pay 40 per cent
more money out in library fines
and rentals than do OSC students.
The reason for this, according to
M. H. Douglass, librarian, is the
fact that the percentage of circu
lation of the Oregon libraries is
higher than OSC. Higher circula
tion is accounted for by the differ
ence in the curriculum of the two
schools with Oregon's curriculum
one that calls for less technical
work and more theory reading.
Dr. D. D. Gage Returns
From Midwest Meeting
Dr. D. D. Gage, professor of
business administration, met his
classes yesterday after returning,
from a nine-day trip to Springfield,
Illinois. As a guest speaker at the
national convention of the Ameri
can Title association last week, he
spoke on “Trends in Title Assuring
Method's.”

Agencies in the United States,” Dr.
Gage is an authority in this field.

Willamette Botanist *
Visits Here Saturday
M. E. Peck, professor of botany
at Willamette university in Salem,
with his wife, spent Saturday with
L. F. Henderson, professor of re
search at the University. The day
was spent in looking over some
plants in Professor Henderson's
laboratory.
Professor Peck has been working
for ten years on the flora of Ore
gon. He stated Saturday that his
work is nearly complete and he ex
pects to make it public in a few
months.
Dean Gilbert Has Article
On Taxation Published
Dean James H. Gilbert of the
school of social science has had
published an article setting forth
the hidden dangers of tax limita
tions.
The article, which appears in the
Oregon section of the October is-,
sue of the Western Citv magazine,
was in connection with the pro
posed amendment on tax limita
tion.
Chief attention in the article is
given to the cities whose difficulty
arises because of city debts. Ac
cording to Dean Gilbert the debt
service must be taken care of and
all the reductions enforced by the
proposed amendment must come
out of the operating budget. This
leaves many Oregon cities nothing
on which to operate.
Faculty Golf

men have entered, but there will be
women’s meet if enough turn in

faculty members will compete with
the men.
’ L. J. Thielmann’s qualifying
round of 84 is the lowest turned in
for 18 holes thus far. Mr. Hulten,
with 85, is next in line. Other
scores follow: W. A. Dahlberg, 97;
Carl L. Johnson, 107; Rudolf

Firing Line
YContinucd from par/e three)
should have trounced the Indians.
Poor punting had a lot to do
with failure to win. though the
even-stephen outcome satisfied
most followers. Arieigh Bentley
was a shining light in other de
partments, but he couldn’t get the
old kicking toe in form, and Ore
gon’s punting for the contest aver
aged 21.3 yards.
From passes the Webfoots made
not a solitary yard, but that was
nothing unusual. In three games
this season the lads have hurled
the prolate spheroid into the at
mosphere 17 times and not once,
not even one little once, has it
connected safely with a receiver's
arms.
The passing wasn’t essential
Saturday. The Webfoots outplaved
Stanford’s line by several mile.s
and gained plenty of yardage on
terra firma. Dale Lasselle and
Bob Braddock were the big ground
gainers. Lasselle, eve witnesses
say, turned in the best game of
his career.
Pulling Center Vern Moore out
of the line on defense seemed to be
a tonic for the Webfoots. That
6-1-2-2 style of play was hard on
Stanford’s passes.
No sooner does a football team
get out of a frying pan than It
tumbles into a fire. Grid squads
can’t rest on their laurels until the
end of the season, and then they
aren’t likely to have any laurels to
rest upon.
With Stanford out of the way,
the Webfoots turn now toward
Idaho. Dick Reed, the end coach,
scouted the Vandals last week, and
he says they are a coming outfit.
Reed reports that Ted Bank has
big, fast men running ail over the
field up at Moscow. They’ll out

they’ll outpass the Webfoots.
Twelve of the Vandals are letter
men. And in a lad named Harold
Koise they have a sophomore who
is supposed to be the good'*. Raise

ability.
