will be*brought down from Port
land for the occasion. Decorations
will be installed Saturday.
The Military Ball opens the win

men from all over the state, in

Finding a little more trouble

out the services of Ken Shipley
who is confined in bed with a cold
at the infirmary. His loss, to some
extent, slowed down the Phi Delt

In the first period the Phi Dells
were ahead 9 to 5 and led at the

Jane Thacher Will
, Play With Symphony
Jane Thacher, University pro
: fessor of piano, and well-known
throughout the West for her bril
liant pianistic performances, will
appear February 6 as guest soloist
with the Portland symphony or
chestra.
| Playing under the baton of Wil
lem van Hoogstraten, maestro of
! the orchestra, the concert artist
and teacher w'ill present the Grieg
j concerto in A minor.
Mrs. Thacher is the pupil of
Theodor Leschetisky, Viennese
teacher of such noted piano vir
tuosos as Paderewski, Gabrilo
witsch, and Friedman. A brilliant
concert career was predicted for
the girl, only to be interrupted by
the World War, when she returned
to America until conflicts ceased.
Leschetizky died the following
year, and in the meantime the stu
dent had decided to give up an ac
tive concert career to marry W. F.
G. Thacher. However, her musical
activities have not ceased, though
she accepts no long concert tours,
and she is popular throughout the
Pacific coast as both a concert pi
anist and a teacher.
Mrs. Thacher was one of the fea
tured players on the University
symphony orchestra's concerto
program, given on the campus
January 27.

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.

Ryder, graduate assistant. 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.

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

S. 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.
