Music Hath Charms....
A MONO ilio cultural aspects of life wlilcli are loo often
missed by a majority of college students is music. Out
side of having a wide opinion on dance bands and swing
orchestras students show little interest in tlie excellent,
musical programs offered by the University.
Rack of this lack of interest in things musical is the great
American concept of classical, music as “highbrow, tin1
probably misplaced efforts of many parents to create Iturbis
and Kreislers out of offspring better suited to other pursuits,
and finally the shallow desire of many to be amused without
opening their minds.
'J'TIERE is a world to probe in music. Tt is as widespread
as literature, as emotional as drama. Like all other
creative arts it enables those who come in contact, with it
to step beyond the limitations of their own abilities, to get
profound emotional satisfaction through the creation of great
aritsts.
Here on the campus we have the possibilities of extending
to almost, every University student the delight of Bach,
Mozart, Tsehaikovsky through the symphony orchestra. Un
fortunately the people in other portions of the state are not
as lucky as Oregon students. True, they may listen to the
radio—may even have heard Rex Underwood’s musicians on
one of their five nation-wide broadcasts during the last two
years.
gTTT for most, of them, there is no opportunity to see the
violinists dart, their bows as they run through a swift
arpeggio, or the tympanist as he bends over his booming
kettle drums. Last, year as more or less of an experiment Ihe
University symphony traveled to Medford, playing for an
enthusiastic crowd of 1500.
Now the newly formed Eugene Symphony association has
been organized downtown, and with the help of Mu l’lii
Epsilon, music honorary on the campus, is endeavoring to
raise funds to send the 1T0 symphony to Salem, Portland,
Tacoma—possibly even to the world's fair.in San Francisco.
The method of raising funds is very sensible. There is no call
for voluntary subscriptions, begging upon school spirit, or
pleading on the general value of the suggested program.
ft ft ft ft
'JpTIE symphony orchestra is returning the expenditures of
those who will support the idea by playing three full
programs on the campus. The sale is now underway under
the guidance of Mu Phi Epsilon, extending to students not
only the opportunity to work toward a goal which will do
much to increase the prestige of the University, but also the
chance to hear their own symphony orchestra.
Getting behind such a program is not so much of aiding
a worthy cause as it is a matter of broadening one’s view of
the world revealed by music. It is a chance to break down
the nonsensical “highbrow” barriers which keep so many
from enjoying classical music. Such an opportunity should
not. be missed.

How to get along with the un
fairer sex . . . that is, girls.
What brought this on? Well,
if you must know it was a date
J didn’t have not so long ago.
You see I told the girl to be
ready to go at nine. When the
clock said nine-twenty and she
was still “upstairs" . . . fussing
around I yelled to her I was
going on and she replied very
saucy-like to go ahead . . . just
as if she were the Empress Eu
genie or the Queen Victoria or
something ... so I went ahead
and she’s not spoken to me
since. Girls are funny.
But a fellow can get along
with them if he wants to and is
willing to make the sacrifices.
The first thing you must do is
forget yourself and think only
of the girl. In other words,
submerge your own being. You
might just as well drown liter
ally once you’ve got girl fever.
Yes, you’ve gotta think about
her, talk about her, and even
hang about her.
But that’s not all. You have
to be able to dance like a true
jitter-bug one minute and
move with the grace of a rolls
the next, act the part of Bob
Taylor in the day time and
know how to do a Gable come
night. You have to say “yes"
when she wants you to and
“no” when she wants you to and
know when to say “yes” or "no”
when she doesn't want you to
and ... oh, who wants to be
popular with them anyhow ?
Now I ask you.
What's happened on the love
front this past weekend? In
side rumors have Betty Burns
and divorced Lloyd Sullivan
sick of the separation already.
But what are rumors where af
fairs d’amour are concerned?
And we see one ATO calmly
planting his pin on a cute Chit)
while a brother ATO and an
other ChiO are “doing the reno’’
on us. Yes, Jim I’ickett and
Betty Buchanan are definitely
that way while the Virginia Be
gan versus lion Anderson case
takes on a different color. How
long this last separation will
last no one knows but this writ
er’s guess is . . . not for long!
And does that big old Stude
haker belong to Harry Weston
or the Pi Phi house? You got
me.

Sigma Chi’s Byron Royce is

The CALLIOPE
By BTU, CUMMINGS
Efforts to promote the con
strnction of a student union
building on the campus have
been eclipsed at least temporar
ily by more concrete plans to
erect a Humanities building on
13th street across from Com
merce, completing what campus
planners have sought for many
years, a quadrangle. Work on
the new structure, which will
cost $120,000, is scheduled to
start in about six weeks.
But the rampaign for a stu
dent union building, which has
hogged down many times in the
past, is being revived under new
auspices this fall. A new idea
has been evolved—organizing a
permanent committee of stu
dents to continue the work over
a period of years. In the past
student groups have done com
mendable work dpring the year,
only to dissolve in the spring
and have their efforts dissolve
with them. This year, however,
it is planned to appoint several
underclassmen on the commit
tee who will be able to carry on
the work, allowing new under
graduates to overlap a year or
two and keep the thing going.

Trend of the times: It’s old
fashioned not to have a secretary.
So Bill I’engra adopts one and
it’s not the first time a manag
ing-editor of the campus daily
has done so. The last time it
was wedding bells but that’s
looking a little too far ahead
for now.
More Spots: Bill Loud attend
coming committee nave a new
angle to work on this year. Fol
lowing the Friday night rally
and bonfire, which will prob
ably be held at Amazon flats, it
has been suggested that soror
ities and fraternities give an
exchange radio dance, for stu
dents and alums alike. The
problem of providing patrons
and patronesses for every house
on the campus at the same time
must first be solved, via special
permission from the dean of
women.
Another new twist for Home
coming: Alums and students
alike will probably be furnished
with identification tags to wear
on their lapels, making it easier
for everyone to get acquainted.
Homecoming and Dads’ day
seem to have been running a
stiff race for the same date on
the calendar, but Homecoming
has evidently won by the mar
gin of one week. That will be
a letdown for Dads’ day, with
the frosh-rook game the only
salvation. Why not postpone
Dads’ day until winter term, for
after Homecoming even dads
will want a longer breather
than one week before traipsing
back to Old Oregon.

Old Faculty Picture
Brings Memories
Of Earlier UO Days
Memories of the past were re
vived recently when Dr. Henry D.
Sheldon, professor of education
and history, discovered a group
picture of members of the Oregon
faculty taken in the winter of
1900.
The picture was taken by Vin
cent Straub, son of the late Dean
John Straub, Dr. Sheldon said. In
cluded in the picture are: Dr. F.
G. G. Schmidt, head of the Ger
man department, who came to the
University in 1897; Dr. O. F. Staf
ford, dean of lower division and
service departments; Dr. Sheldon;
and the late Dr. E. D. Ressler, one- j
time superintendent of the Eugene
schools and University faculty j
member. Dr. Ressler, who was
also head of the education depart- j
ment at Oregon State College, died
in 1928.
Dr. Sheldon has given the pic
ture to Miss Pauline Walton, li-1
brary indexer, for the Oregon room 1
of the iibe where it will take its !
place with books written by the
University faculty and photo-1
graphs of prominent people from J
the University.
