; SDXMembers Swamped
By Perfect Type * Queens
By JOHNNY KAHANANUI
They shuffled, re-shuffled, cut, and dealt on into the wee hours
of the morning, but all that turned up were queens, queens, and more
queens, as members of Sigma Delta Chi labored to select a “Perfect
Type.”
Bona fide blond hair, "dish-water” blond hair, brunette locks,
red hair, were brushed up, down, and around into coiffures of all
description. These framed vivacious, glamorous, and languid faces
I peered out at tne sen-styled, gog
gle-eyed, connoisseurs of beauty
from photographs.
I see another queen again,
I'll scream,” groaned a bedrag
i gled journalist, as he divided his
avid gaze between photos of
Mary Mercier (Queen of Sun Val
ley) and Annabelle Dow (1941
Junior Weekend queen) and then
with his free hand tried to
snatch one of Dorothy Havens
(Oregon Valentine girl) out of
the tenacious grip of a colleague.
Not for Caslon
‘‘Old Man Caslon, designer of
the renowned Caslon type face
for printing, would hang his head
in shame and wriggle in his grave
with envy if he saw the kind of
‘t$lpe’ we’re working with,” vol
unteered another photograph
besieged member of the men’s
national professional journalistic
fraternity.
Towards early morning com
ments voiced in a subdued tone
hours before, were being shouted
across at one and the other of
those present, as each member
appeared to be crusading for a
different queen.

,t^er one can sing they’re still
lovely and who cares anyway.
^ What’s a voice, just everything.
Another fine week’s wax is B.
Goodman’s discing on Columbia
of “Superman” backed with
“More Than You Know.” Good
Helen Forrest vocal on the “More
Than” side, and terrific Cootie
Williams horn on the reverse.
Just saw a copy of the Cali
fornia yearbook and the swing
columnist for said publication
writes about nothing but Bessie
Smith and Bix. I often wish I
could do the same, but no. Bes
sie Smith sounds like a house
mother and Bix doesn’t.
But I’m still not going to give
‘■wp. Tear the label off your near

and I promise you brave ones
three loud successive huzzahs.
Meanwhile carry on till next
Tuesday night at seven and Glenn

YM Presents
Crazy Show’
A “delightfully crazy” three
act comedy entitled “Birds of a
Feather” will be presented to
day evening in the YMCA hut
under the sponsorship of Wesley
house. A 15-cent admission
charge will be made.
Adrian Martin, University dra
ma instructor, is the play’s di
rector. The cast is made up of
Wesley students, who were in
Eugene this summer, who are
from the University, the voca
tional school, Eugene high school,
and University high. Experience
gained by these players when
they put the play on at the Metho
dist church on the nights of Sep
tember 18, 19, and 22, will insure
an entertaining performance, Mr.
Martin declared.
The comedy is to be presented
in the intimate theater style with
the audience on the same level
and partly around the players.
Those in the cast are as fol
lows: Meredith Olson, Howard
Bailey, Roy Smith, Helen Bige
low, Ramona Jones, Louise Rick
abau, Harry Thienes, Marguerite
Weigant, Georgia Adams, War
deen Hadley, Robert Bailey, and
Jack Thienes.
New Librarians Added

added to the library staff. These

'pssitant supervisor of the catalog
division at the University of
^owa and Miss Martha A. Foster,
who was a junior cataloger at
Brown university.
Miss Beatrice Barker, who has
been with the library for the past
32 years, retired this year and
Miss Krieg succeeded her as head
cataloger. Miss Miriam Yoder,
senior assistant cataloger re
signed this summer to take a
position as head cataloger St the
University of Idaho. Miss Foster
was appointed to succeed Miss
Yoder.

passed the rushee and she did the
same thing, wiping it on her face.
The senior next to her became
alarmed. “Tell me, Mitzi, why do
you put that salad dressing on
your face?” Mitzi, for now that
was her name, smiled again. “Sal
ad dressing? I thought it was
mayonaise!”
Which reminds us, in closing,
of the freshman who insisted
upon eating all of his meals with
a knife ’cause his fork leaked.

It isn't raining cats and dogs,
but you might step into a
'“poodle” at any time now. If you
do, pick it up with any handy
armored car and rush it straight
to President Donald M. Erb.
Dr. Erb began Thursday, with
dog-matic persistence, to whistle
up and down the campus looking
for a little Penny, all by remote
control, of course. Penny is the
name of a one-foot high French
poodle with a mean disposition,
who knows exactly where she is—
but everyone else seems to be
lost.
Tuesday the president's office
received a letter from the office
of T. B. Hooker, sheriff of Polk
county, which enclosed a plea
from Mrs. Ora Swan, Dallas, ask
ing Dr. Erb to please look for her
little black and white poodle.
Last Sunday Mrs. Swan was
traveling through Eugene. While
parked in front of Seymour’s
cafe, her little pet, a ‘‘mess’’ of
curls according to the letter, was
taken or wandered away from
her car.
Dr. Erb urges students of the
University to cooperate in look
ing for this pup as she is the con
stant companion of a little girl in
Dallas who misses her very much.
Miss Gladys Kerlee, secretary
to the president, will be glad to
investigate any pinto poodle
brought to her office on the lower
floor of Johnson hall.
Miss Frances McCarty

UNIVERSITY GROCERY
Oregon Must Pay
For Damaged Cars
Railways cars marked with
chalk at the depot rally Wednes
day night and which will have to
pe repainted must be paid for by
the University, Les Anderson,
chairman of the rally committee,
revealed last night.
The chalk, used by students to
write the names of memoers of
the team living in their houses,
has destroyed the paint on the
cars, and they must be refirished.
The students were asked to stop
by railway officials and members
of the rally squad, but refused to
do so.
Anderson said he thought that
the athletic department, which
supervises rallies, will have to
pay for the damage unless action
is taken by the interfraternity
council to force the fraternities,
or members of fraternities who,
he said, did most of the work, to
pay for the harm done.
Allan Hunt, secretary of the
interfraternity council, declared
that the subject was not brought
up at the council’s meeting Thurs
day but that it would be con
sidered at the next regular meet
ing if the rally squad thought it
advisable.
Students Plan Meeting
Episcopal students will sponsor
an evening service from 6 to 6:30,
Sunday in St. Mary's Episcopal
chapel, emphasizing a meditation
on the need of inner peace and
strength. At 6:30 an informal
supper will be served followed by
recreation and discussion.
