Romance, Pep to Pervade
r 'Christmas Revels’, Last
Dance Party of Fall Term
Students and Faculty Will Get Together in
Pause That Refreshes on Weekend Before
Onslaught of Final Exams
Sprigs of mistletoe placed in numerous cozy places are expected \
to add an air of romance to the merry Christmas spirit which will
fill Gerlinger hall during the all-campus Christmas Revels, Saturday.
December 11, announced Larry Reid and Hazel Lewis, co-chairmen of
the affair yesterday.
Additional zest will be added in the form of the new fast-stepping
campus dance team of Alyce Rogers and Max Peabody, who will put
on a novel specialty, a fast dance,
routine. And there is talk of plen
ty of the big apple and' other live
ly steps beside all the conventional
dancing a couple may desire.
Also on the program will be the
Hyde sisters, an acrobatic dance
team, Hugh Simpson, singing gui
tarist, Hal Young and his carol
lers, and several other skits which
have been kept secret, comes the
announcement. Among the latter
are several from faculty members.
This is the seventh year of the
Revels. First starting as an in
formal all-campus get-together of
the students with the faculty, it
has rapidly grown into a campus,
tradition. Last year Santa had
presents for the guardians and in
structors of the campus family |
and this year Santa is reported to j
have an extra large gifts bag.
Not only will the campus be in-;
vited to this affair, but also any
townspeople who may desire to

Sig Ep power and steadines proved
too much for them. Leading the

tower of strength, Ed Wheelock.
Betas Triumph
In the first playoff in the B
league series, the Betas bested the
Kappa Sig minor leaguers in the
most erratic series of the entire
season. In the initial game, the
Kappa Sigs appeared to be invinc
ible by white-washing their mill
race brothers, 15-0, but in the sec
ond and third games the tables
were practically reversed with the
Betas running off with the winning
margin, 15-5, 15-5.
In a league 4 championship play
off, the Phi Delt B leaguers the
Theta Chis in straight games, 15
13, 15-4. After battling on prac
tically even terms in the first
game, the Theta Chi lads folded
up in the second, thus eliminating
themselves from a place in the
championship playoffs.
Sig Ep Babes Win
In a postponed B league game,
the Sig Ep babes dropped the fiji
volliers in straight games, 16-14,
15-5. The games had no bearing
on the championship playoffs.
Two games have been scheduled
for the courts this afternoon, the
DU A leaguers meeting the Sig
Eps on court 38 at 4 oclock, and
the Gamma hall B team opposing
the Phi Delts.
The DUs drew a bye in the A
league playoff and the winner of
today's game will attempt to take
the title away from the defending
Phi Delt sextet at 4:45 Monday.
The Gamma hall-Phi Delt match
will be the second game in B
league playoffs.

By GORDON RIDGEWAY
WASHINpTON, Dec. 2.—Face
to face, literally, but politically
back to back, the leaders in la
bor's civil war, John L. Lewis and
William Green, met here today to
talk of peace.
At the conclusion of their initial
session Lewis shouted at inter
viewers that he and Green had
reached no conclusions.
Chewing his gum in vigorous
fashion. Green offered, “It was an
interesting discussion.”
Along with other labor troubles,
the national labor relations board
attempted to subpoena the records
of a magazine, “Mill and Factory,”
which has been defiantly criticiz
ing the board recently. The sub
poena was granted.
But editors and publishers an
nounced that the document will be
ignored, believing it to be a viola
tion of the constitutional guarantee
of a free press.
In that event, the board declared,
federal courts will be called upon
to uphold the board’s authority.

Congress, which is in session at
Washington now, finally rescued
the wage-hour bill from the house
rules committee, but voted down
a proposal to investigate methods
of accomplishing the feat.
The bill would set up a five man
board to regulate minimum wages
and maximum hours in industry.
Observers believe that it has a
hard trail to follow, with ample
volunteers to attempt amending it.
The motion to investigate the
rescue came from Representative
Fish, democrat, New York, who
revealed rumors that signers of the
releasing petition nad been offered
“everything but the capitol.” The
move was tabled, 281-94.
SHANGHAI, Dec. 2.- Coffins
are being sold here for firewood
at the rate of three cents a bundle.
The fuel shortage is so acute that
Chinese residents are combing the
cemeteries for wood.
A Japanese “victory march" was
staged in the city today despite
protests of foreign officials who
feared that the demonstration
might end with a “fateful inci
dent.”
Officially, the parade was de
scribed as a transfer of troops
from the west of the international
settlement to its eastern part.
The parade took 30 minutes to
pass a given point.

PARIS, Dec. 2.—French efforts

a free hand in central Europe, in

bers have found it necessary to go
to Corvallis for the regular Friday
night broadcasts. A permanent
hook-up between the two campuses
would eliminate a good deal of ex
pense. This was again pointed out
by the mothers in their recommen
dation to the board.
Agitation for such a hook-up be
tween Oregon and Oregon State
has been present to some degree
since 1932, but it was not until this
year that the experiment has been
tried.

Cooking and composition can now cooperate without turning the
result into a cookbook. The latest author recruited from kitchen
ranks is Sally Salminen, who was in domestic services in a home in
this country when she received word that her novel, "Katrina,” had
been chosen as the Helsingfors prize novel.
Written at night and on afternoons-off this story of the peasants
fisherfolk of the Aland Islands was
submitted to a prize contest spon
sored by two Scandinavian houses.
Its choice was unanimous and upon
publication in Sweden it had imme
diate success. The 50,000 marks
prize has freed Miss Salminen for
more literary work, and she has
now returned to the Aland Islands
where she was born to work on a
second novel.

Rupert Hughes says of David
Edstrom's “The Testament of Cali
ban:” “Move over, Benevenuto
Cellini, and make room on the nar
row shelf of great autobiographies
for this self-life by David Edstrom,
a rival of your genius in sculpture
as in revelation of himself and of
the amazingly various people he
has met.” (We agree.)
Just in case you aren’t aware of
it, there are a great many people
I in the world who want to take the
bull by the horns, open the door
| when opportunity knocks, and gen
erally make friends and influence'
people. It is the thing to do, if
you want to get out of that imag
inary rut you're in, say the book
publishers. For a long time now
they’ve had the public eating out
of their hands. Can anything stop
it?
Yes! And the leader of the
counter-attack is Irving D. Tress
ler, whose latest anti-popularity
document is “How to Lose Friends
and Alienate People,” a burlesque
of all success books, (one in par
ticular.) In this tongue-in-cheek
treatise, Mr. Tressler formulates a
sound and workable recipe for an
tagonizing your friends and mak
ing yourself repulsive.
Mr. Tressler tells you the best
way to start grudges, how to shake
hands in that bone-crushing style,
how to lisp and talk about your
self in a steady stream, how to
keep a chip on your shoulder, how
to get rid of your boy friend, how
to forget names and people, how to
be late for appointments (dates
to you), how to be generously un
: flattering, how to contradict, but
i wait, we could go on forever tell
ing you how to assert yourself dis
tastefully.
If you crave lonesome evenings,
read this satire, (or you might try
“Let Your Mind Alone” by James
Thurber, who shares a similar
point of view.) Look it over, may
be to see through some of the
farces the older generation is fool
ing itself with, maybe to get a
few chuckles and belly laughs.
Whether or not you go in for
any extra-curricular reading, try
to remember Mr. Tressler’s most
provoking maxim for failure, “Al
ways keep a snarl on your face.”
Personally, we don't care much for
sourpusses, but after reading the
book, we’re anxiously waiting for
someone to disagree with us . . .

Sheldon Cheney in his “World
History of Art" looks at the past
10,000 years of art and sees it
through the eyes of today. “Art is
joyous if one can get at it," says
Mr. Cheney, and he has set out to
help the reader “get at it" through
present -day appreciations and
viewpoints.

For Coming Play
Do you have “Poor John,” “Oh,
Bedelia,” or “Dearie” ? If so, Mrs.
Ottilie Turnbull Seybolt, head of
the drama department, would like
to see you.
The titles mentioned belong to
sheet music not to people, and this
music is needed for the production
of “Ah! Wilderness,” by Eugene
O'Neil to be produced early next
term.
Other collector's items which are
needed for the play are costumes
of the period of 1906. Especially
desired are motoring costumes of
the day. The large veiled hats,
the linen dusters and goggles, all
these are needed to complete the
; atmosphere of the first decade of
the twentieth century.
The completed cast of the play
