Art Prints Attacked
By LOIS HULSER
War has been declared! Not by a mobilized army with a list of
political grievance pages long, but by a horde of innocent little
lepisma saccharinia with an insane obsession for art prints, espe
cially in colors of delicate blue, and delicious book bindings. The art
school is on the defensive and officials have agreed that arbitration
can be considered no longer. The break in the crisis came when val
uable prints were used by the silverfish, lepisma saccharinia to
form a banquet, probably insect Mortar Board.
Munitions were in the making all day yesterday and active war
was opened last night. Results of the first attack have not yet reached
the nearest communique at the “shack.” Officials of the administra
tion felt confident late yesterday that the plans for he first invasion
were infallible.
The administration hoped that its first campaign would subdue
the invaders when they encountered the mines laid for them. Rolled
paper covered with a thin coating of starch paste in which has been
mixed a little powdered arsenic will prove atti’active to the silverfish,
scientists have told bewildered art school officials. After a meal so
prepared the silverfish usually retire from active duty and leave the
destruction of book bindings and other starch soaked things to their
relatives or other creatures.
University Gets Botany Books
The University of Oregon botany department has been given a
collection of 23 volumes on United States wild flowers. The portfolios
consist of photographs of hand-colored flowers and have been pre
pared by Archibald R. Livingston. Included in the group are a number
of illustrations from Oregon counties, Colorado, and California.

'High Tor'
Combines
Old, New
Something old—something new
— something different — some
thing different—something like
Maxwell Anderson’s play, “High
Tor,” combines a variety of the
ancient and modern drama with
an original imagination and
makes a Broadway hit which will
be produced in the University
theater Wednesday, Thursday,
and Friday.
Borrowing Shakespeare’s blank
verse medium, Anderson mixes it
with the popular prose of the
stage today for the actors’ lines.
Combines Plots
His “High Tor” plot also com
bines the old and the new with
fantasy, having a pastoral hero
confronted by 20th century ras
cally real estate men wanting to
buy his mountain estate, “High
Tor” for its quarry stones depos
it. The appearance of Hendik
Hudson’s ghostly crew gives the
fairy tale tone.

Capsules Say
Sleep Or Else:
Infirms Affirm It
According to legend, an aspirin
in a coke will give you all the
effects of over-indulgence in in
toxicating beverages, and there
are schools of thought that say
emphatically it will not.
There are no differences of
opinion as to the effects of the
infirmary’s yellow capsules to
make you sleep, according to the
campus hospital's currently oldest
'inhabitants, Robin Nolson and
Penny Singleton.
Penny and Robin each took
one, and soon noticed that the
walls were wavering and their
beds seemed to be moving over a
little when they tried to get back
into them. The girls say the cap
sules are quite effective.
Other students who are in bed
missing the spring weather are
Jane Montgomery, Levelle Wal
strom, Marjorie Phipps, Alice
Clark, Peggy Robins, Glenn Wil
liams, Bob Skelley, Donald Pe
terson, John Taylor, Gordon Per
kins, and Charles Gorsage.
