Varied Exhibits Are Shown at Art School No matter what type of pictures one likes, whether they be water colors, oils, crayons, or pencil; whether they be of scenery, people, buildings, or interiors; whether they be done by outstanding contem porary American artists, persons in the movie capital, or by an Oregon graduate, one can find one's favorite in the three exhibits which will be shown for a few more days at the art school. The exhibit which will, perhaps, interest most persons is one Flu, Chickenpox Cases Fill Infirmary Twenty-three patients in the in firmary yesterday came near to taking up all slack in the facilities of the organization as cases of flu and chickenpox filled all but a few beds in the health service wards. Students need not be alarmed over the seemingly numerous cases of chickenpox that have been re ported because most of the stu dents of college age have already had the disease and are now im mune, Dr. Miller stated. Infirmary officials also said that the many cases of flu that have been called to their attention of late is no indication that a new flu epidemic is likely to break on the campus. Orides, Yeomen Plan Joint Spanish Dinner A Spanish dinner and dance will be given under the joint sponsor ship of the Orides and Yeomen in Gerlinger hall Friday, February 4. The dinner will be held at 6:30 and real Spanish food is promised. Aletha Morris and Orva Hanson are general chairmen of the af fair. The charge will be 15 cents for the dinner and 10 cents for the dance. The dinner is for those at tending Orides and Yeomen meet ings only, but the dance is open to everyone. Papers will be post ed in the YWCA and YMCA build ings for those who are interested to sign. It is rumored that a number of Chicago radio announcers are go ing slightly crazy, bugs, or what have you. The fault seems to lie with DePaul university's tongue twisting basketball line-up which runs like this: Soimeca and Skrod ski at forwards; Zelezinski at cen ter; and Szukula and Szulceski at guards.

Most of the persons whose work appears here are in some way connected with the movie industry. The name of J. Duncan Gleason, for instance, appears beside the picture “Mountains.’ Gleason de signed nearly three-fourths of the sets for “Anthony Adverse.” Many others on display are done by art ists who have worked for studios. Rufus Harrington's study, “San Fernando Valley," is one of the most outstanding of these paint ings. It depicts harvest time, the sun shining brightly and warmly down upon the shocks of grain. Monastery Portrayed Robert Kennedy's “Design for an Auditorium" and “Monastery” are stimulating to look at. The first one, done in blues, is extreme ly modern in style. The latter, which is in reds and browns, por trays a monastery, which reminds one of the pictures of fairies’ homes, hidden away in the hills. Kennedy is an architect at Walter Eissen’s in Los Angeles. Extreme simplicity in lines and brilliant colors are much in evi dence in the interior designs of Henry Bumstead. Dresses that no college girl would refuse are shown by the work of Roberta Board and Har riett Trever. Two other pictures in this exhibit arc a sketch of Joe Jinks and his wife by Clyde For sythe and “The Great White Throne’’ by Frank Petrieh. In the little art gallery is a trio of paintings done by three out standing American painters, Henry McFee, Georgia O'Keefe, and Eu gene Speicher. McFee’s “Still Life” is a group of autumn leaves with an indoor arrangement. Miss O’Keefe’s “Pansy" appears ex tremely delicate in nature. “Lois," done by Eugene Speicher is an in teresting character study of a young girl. Quaint pencil and crayon draw ings of old Mexico are found in Harold Onstad's exhibit in the ar chitecture exhibition room. The odd sight of an old turblc down buildings is shown in some of his drawings. Onstad, a partial Ion Lewis fellow, has vividly portrayed the slate of m^ny of the imprcssic the state of many of the impressive Catholic churches and missions. Beside other architectural studies, Onstad has included several char acter sketches. This exhibit is being circulated by the American Federation of Arts. Oregon Natators (Continued Iron- f’nr/e two) will travel cither by boat or train from Seattle, depending on weath er conditions. The meet will take place at Crystal Pool at 9:30 pan. Coach Hoyman describes this meet as be ing something of a blind date. From all given reports the UBC j boys are a scrappy lot. The team has not been definite ly selectcd as yet. There may be a few changes or cuts, but tlu^ u. • hardly prebabie.

Oregon Mines Show Great Possibili ties Gold, petroleum, and coal are not the only minerals which a geo logist should search for in the field, James C. Stovall, geography in strucor, explained in a talk before the Condon club Thursday, Janur ary 27. As transportation facilities in Oregon have been improved, he said, more and more deposits of non-metallic minerals have become profit able to work. A second grade quality of asbestos which sells for as un ijiu i .uv> i.uu miro | found in Baker county, Oregon, and some deposits of barite have been found in Malheur county. Salts of many kinds are found in the now-dry-lake beds of eastern Oregon; some of which can be used without refinement, while Fuller’s earth which is used in the oil refining industry, and valued at $10 to $20 a ton, also occurs in seme parts of the state. Among the most interesting materials which are now market able are oils from the roots, need les, and leaves of a number of com mon trees and shrubs in Oregon. Pine needle, spruce, and cedarwood oil sell at $1 per pound while oil of roses sells from $2 to $10 per pound. Roots of the Oregon grape, and the blue flag, sell from 10 to 15 cents a pound, while digitalis which comes from the common foxglove is 60 cents a pound.

Robe Discusses Mexican Literature — Wright Also Speaks at Tuesday Meeting of House Librarians There has been a definite change in the literature of Mexico since i the revolution, said Stanley Robe, graduate assistant in the Romance languages department, at the house librarians' meeting yester day afternoon. | Before the revolution most of the literature was of a religious nature and since then it has been of a socialistic trend. The lives of ■ the leaders of the revolution have been written both in biographical and fictional form. Mr. Robe spent the summer in Guadalajara, Mexico, studying col : loquial Spanish and improving his 1 pronunciation preparatory to teaching this year. The European influence is j strongly felt and such authors as Anatole France, Gorki, Tolstoy, and Turgenev constitute a greater part of their translations, Robe said. For some reason the litera ture of the United States has not been very popular among the Mex Dr. L. O. Wright, Spanish pro fessor, was also a guest at the meeting and added his impressions to these of Mr. Robe's. Dr. Wright told the members of the group that the Mexican picture, "La Paloma” was to be brought to the campus some time in March, the date of which is riot yet definite. Jack Gavin was elected vice president of the organization, to fill the unexpired term of Mary Mohr, who did not return to school this term. Coach Keogan of Notre Dame had his home robbed while he was on a basketball trip the other day. Perhaps it would be better off if he took his officials with him next time.
