Tickets Left
Committee Insures
Against Rain But
Stays Optimistic
All reserved seat tickets and
half of the general admission
tickets for tomorrow night’s can
oe fete have been sold, Ed Walk
er, ticket agent, announced last
night.
Junior Weekend heads, with
trouser knees gone from praying
for good weather, shouted “lies”
to forecasts of rain yesterday
morning, but took a new grip
after some reports indicated “fair
weather” last night. “The fete is
insured for $1000,” Chairman
Lloyd Sullivan said, “but heaven
help us if we collect.”
Canoe Fete Chairman Fred
Ehlers reported good progress in
float construction, but indicated
that work on some would need
speeding up. Pat Erickson, theme
finder, said that announcers for
the water pageant—Lillian Davis,
Dolph Janes, and Jim Davidson—
were drilled constantly all day
yesterday by W. B. Nash, instruc
tor in drama.

a watery grave by the “hercu
lean” effort of several nearby
“sailors” who managed to hold
her partly above the water line.
A hole in one of the air drums
supporting the float was blamed
for the accident. Members of the
two houses concerned worked
hastily last night to repair the
damage in time for the Saturday

Lyric Soprano Sings
For Local Audience
By GLENN HASSELROOTFI
Eugene society turned out in
spring formals and tuxedos
Thursday night in the music au
ditorium on the University of
Oregon campus for the Phi Mu
Epsilon concert presenting Mme.
Gertrud Bender-Rosenstock and
found her to be an artist of beau
ty and charm, as well as a lyric
soprano of near faultless tech
nique.
The brunette Mme. Bender
sang Mozart, Schumann, John
Ireland, La Forge, Puccini. She
sang a recitative and two arias
from Italian opera, lieder from
Germany, concert songs of Eng
land and America. And every in
tent listener who heard, no doubt,
realized that it was America’s
gain, Germany’s loss when Ger
trude Bender left naziland for
good.
The selections from the Mozart
and Puccini operas were the most
outstanding. In “Guinse al Fin
del Momento” from “The Mar
riage of Figaro,” a beautiful re
straint and feeling for tone shad
ing was expressed. Here, and in
the performance on “One Fine
Day” from “Madame Butterfly,”
the understanding accompani
ment of Pianist Jane Thacher
contributed to the successful at
tainment and sustenance df a
hopeful mood.
Members of the Nu chapter of
the honor society for upperclass
women in music offered four oth
er numbers on the well balanced
program. Catharine Miller, or
ganist, opened the recital with
Valentini’s charming “Minuet
Antique,”' which held' up to its
name. Somber romanticism was
evidenced in the mellow playing
of a cello quartet, consisting of
Madge Conaway Chilcote, Mary
Booth, Jane Hall, and Lora Tesh
ner Ware, professor of cello.
Arensky’s Allegro Moderato
from “Trio in D Minor” was given
in the best chamber fashion by
Mollie Hardin, violinist and pres
ident of the honorary; Marjorie
Scobert, pianist, and Mrs. Chil
cote. Another high light of the
evening was Charlotte Plummer's
clarinet solo, Weber’s “Concer
tino,” which she executed in scin
tillating style. Although the
same number was played enter
tainingly Sunday afternoon with
the University of Oregon concert
band, the second hearing gave
the impression that here indeed
was “Concertino” in its definitive
version.
