The
Passing
Parade
By CORINE LAMON
Surveying the number of fra
ternity pins in each women’s liv
ing organization we have at
tempted to roughly outline the
date-rating of the various houses.
Here are the results: Theta and
Alpha Phi top the list with 23
pins apiece—four Phis have given
pins apiece—four Phis have given
... next comes Delta Gamma with
19 pins and three returns . . .
Susie girls can cha'k up 18 . . .
Kappaz have 14 pins and have
given three back . . . ADPis tie
with 14 pins, but none have gone
back . . . Gamma Phis and Pi
Phis each have 12 pins, with
Gamniafis returning 2 and Pifi
3 . . . Alpha Chis have ten pieces
of hardware, and have given five
others back . , . AOPi and Alpha
Gam are neck - and - neck with
eight pins and one return apiece
. . . Hendricks girls have seven,
gave one back . . Chi Omega
takes the prize when it comes
to returns — they’ve taken five
and given four others back . , .
Alpha Xi Delta has five pins . . ,
Tri Delt has three . and ZTA
has one . . . and that takes care
of a lot of the kind of jewelry
that doesn’t turn green in the
spring hereabouts . this sur
vey doesn’t include steadies.
And now for miscel’aneous:
Olivia Dysinger and Porter Jen
nings are being married in the
Phi Sig house today . . . Margaret
Childs, ADPi, received an ATO
pin from California in the morn
ing mail . . . and Alphi Chi Billie
Christenson took Larry Quille,
ex-Delt president, to her house
dance—he’s stopping off here on
his way to Wake Island . . .
Amusing but confusing: Joan
Planteen and Chuck Mallory al
ternately staging a battle of wits
and billing and cooing. . . . Why
do they call Nancy Ames
“Champ”? , . . Stew Randall,
Fiji, coming up from Ran Fran
cisco for Junior Weekend — does
Leone La Duke have anything to
do with it ? ? . . . Wini Green is
still getting letters from Boston
and Dave Silver. . . .
We predict: Willow Coffin,
Hendricks, will be wearing one
Chi Psi sweetheart pin come to
morrow . . . Chi O Lee English
has Bob Wook’s U. of Washing
ton Pi Kap pin. . . . Rokie Rod
man dating Dolores Davidson A
LOT . . . likewise Pete Sales and
Roberta Lemon . . .

Nice Spice Promised
For Big Slave Sale
“Because the Will Hayes office
refused to okay our plans at the
last moment, the giant slave auc
tion scheduled for today will be
postponed until Wednesday after
noon at 4,” stated Bob Whitely,
mock canoe fete chairman.
“We will work the costumes
over so that there won’t be a
riot,’’ Whitely added, “and we will
proceed with the slave auction
Wednesday afternoon in front of
the Side.
“Jack Boone has been practic
ing a new composition ‘Slumming
With Sinbad,’ and Ted .Hallock
is coming out with a new drum
boogie solo. Bill Bishop and Ed
Zelinsky are preparing an exhibi
tion of sleight of hand tricks that
will put the ‘Great Virgil’ to
shame.”
Princess Belshazzar of Oran,
guest of honor at the mock canoe
fete, will arrive in Eugene May
8, and elaborate plans have been
made by the committee to “paint
the town” while she is here.
“The script for the mock canoe
fete will be handled by Carolyn
Holmes,” Whitely added, “and she
has recruited all the great minds
of the campus to help in filling
it full of spice ... all nice of
course.
“Anyone who thinks he may
qualify as a demon log-roller
(politicians excepted) or can stay
in a canoe tilting contest, just get
in touch with Frances Cox, Con
nie Averill, Charlie Weisberg, or
Bill Bloodworth,” Whitely said.
“There will be plenty of compe
tition to take care of all entries.”

Drama Class Flans
New Broadway Hit
For the first time in recent
years University and Eugene au
diences will have the opportunity
of seeing a brand-new Broadway
comedy hit when “George Wash
ington Slept Here,” latest Kauf
man-Hart play is presented in
Guild hall May 16, 17, and 20.
The wires were kept hot for
several days with messages from
the University drama division to
the New York publishers of the
play when Drama Instructor Hor
ace W. Robinson’s junior acting
class decided to give that as its
spring show.
A first-rate Hit like ‘‘George
Washington Slept Here,” which
has just completed a long run on
Broadway, is not usually released
for non-professional production.
After the show has closed, its
presentation is permitted in cer
tain parts of the country, but
sometimes as much as a year
passes before general production
is allowed.
Dr. Smith Speaks
At Fortnightly Club
Dr. Warren D. Smith, head of
the geology and geography de
partments, was guest speaker at
a meeting of the Eugene Fort
nightly club Thursday afternoon.
Shown in connection with his

dachrome pictures loaned by Bert
Roberts, president of the Port
land Rotary club. Several ad
vanced Spanish students from the
University also attended the
meeting.

Coming Films
Finish Series
Show Will Feature
World War Show;
Jolson; Cartoon
The last program in the cur
ent series of the film revivals
will be shown students in the
Chapman hall theater room next
Wednesday afternoon and eve
ning. Composed of three famous
movies of a past decade, the mov
ies will be free to all students
upon presentation of their edu
cational activities cards,
“All Quiet on the Western
Front,” immortal among war pic
tures, will be featured along with
“The Jazz Singer,” starring A1
Jolson, and “Steamboat Willie,” a
Mickey Mouse cartoon.
“The Jazz Singer” is described
as being remarkable, not because
it was well done, but because it
was done at all. It represents one
of the first attempts to include
a singing voice as part of a film.
In the picture A1 Jolson makes
his first rendition of the song al
ways associated with him, “Mam
my.”
A beautiful, sensitively direct
ed portrayal of the horrors of
the last World war, “All Quiet
on the Western Front,” is still a
great film. Harrowing as the sub
ject matter seemed in 1930, it has
not become less poignant in later
years and at present it creates
as much emotional strain as most
audiences care to undergo.

F
'Big Name'
Rumor Spiked;
Oh, Shaw!
The Junior Prom was sabo
taged!
Art Holman will play for the
annual big dance—not, as ru
mored, Artie Sha^v.
A story spread across the cam
pus last night that the “big
name” orchestra would appear.
Investigation revealed that the
false story started from a hand
bill printed as a class assign
ment by some imaginative pub
lishing studerit. The bill read:
“EXTRA—Artie Shaw will play
for the JUNIOR PROM.”
Jack Saltzman, Prom chair
man, promptly issued a denial:
“Holman will play for the dance,
not Shaw. Only correct part of
the rumor is in the orchestra
leader’s first name. The maestro
will be ‘Artie’.”
