-Radio Students Will Air Show The radio workshop, under the supervision of Marvin Krenk, in structor in speech, will present two dramas over KOAC tonight from 7:30 to 8:30. The first drama, “What We De fend” is by Bernard Schoenfeld. It takes as' its theme the tracing of the historical rise of different governments that have tried to tempt the United States, either by suggesion that, if allied with -^fehem, this country could rule the world, or by taunting the Unit ed States, saying it is luck and luck alone that has been respon sible for its present power. The drama shows the untruth of their arguments. Principal Roles The principal roles of “What We Defend" are taken by Don Merrill, and Ted Hallock. The play has 35 separate parts, which calls for some adroit doubling on the part of the radio workshop members. The second drama, “His Name Was John,” was written by Mr. Kr^nk, arid is based upon the cliches and terms that are pres ent in different typical family situations. The drama is experi mental in that some of the dia logue is used as a montage. More Cast The part of John as a young boy is taken by Norma Baker, and the part of John as a grown man is played by Harold Martin. Pat Stannard plays John’s moth er, Muriel Meier plays his sister, and Don Moss has the role of his brother. Elaine Voss and Claire Lyon have charge of sound, and Kath erine Hardenbrook and Frank Watkins are the music crew. “Anything Goes” The starting of a new feature, was also announced. Written by Ted Harmon and Larry Celsi, it will, this week, be a take-off on “Romeo and Juliet.” Any resem blance to the original one by W. Shakespeare, is purely coinci dental, say the authors. High School Debaters Will Convene Friday Marvin A. Krenk, instructor in * speech and secretary of the Ore gon high school debating league, announced recently that the sec ond annual league tournament will be held on the campus Friday and Saturday, April 3 and 4. He is expecting more than 100 stu dents to attend. Mr. Krenk will direct the tournament. Besides the regular contests in public discussion, extemporaneous speaking, after-dinner speaking, and debating, something new will be added to the proceedings. For the first time competition in radio speaking will be held. This is expected to be the most popu lar contest on the schedule. Nothing Sacred (Continued from page tzvo) Friday, Carold Boone; Saturday, Mona MacAuley (who still gets too much publicity), and Sunday, Babs Read. Which is real batting in the Synthetic Blonde league. And as for Sister Read, she did n’t wait long enuf for the Army mud to cake on the boots of four year steady Don Turner before she started to go out again. But she wasn’t with Phi Delt Jim Cuzzens the other night as Miss Awful Truths reported. A Bit of Patter—Beta Bob Koch leans out of second-story Deady and shouts, “Jimmy New quist'll get ya' if you don’t watch out.” Two Alfa Gams were talking in front of the Side.

Theater Workshoppers Take 'Art’ to Heart By RUTH JORDAN Those strange people running around in white or near white coveralls with green stitching on the backs, are not mechanics, hospital attendants, or representatives from an asylum. They are members of a University class-theater work shop. Following two of them over to their classroom, an old resi dence converted into “Ye Olde Worke Shoppe,” I soon found U.JilUU U1UUUU J people with buckets of paint, long boards, and large flats for walls. To the Dark Rooms Bob Stedman and Barbara Parker were sent over to the “Morgue,” a dark little set of rooms in the basement of Friend ly hall, for a number of flats in specified sizes. I went along, out of curiosity, and was shortly engaged, note book, pencil and all, in the pro cess of carrying back some of the flats. In the “Morgue” there is a great selection of choice items, which have been used in previous University plays. Anything from church pews, old trees, chairs and tables, mummy cases, and stair ways may be found hidden away in the dust and cobwebs. isacK /*gam Then we went back to the “Worke Shoppe” and I had a chance to catch my breath and look around. The ex-kitchen is now the paint room; the pantry is the storing place for dry paints; the front room contains a long table, sev eral saws, and other tools which the members learn to use with great dexterity. Class Work Classwork includes making the sets for the plays, setting them up, changing them, and taking care of all the back-stage work during a play. During the year each member of the class learns to do all phases of the work. One member of the class, Bob bie Wilson, was building an arch, nailing strips of boards and fit ting the rounded pieces together. Horace Robinson, director of the group, was sawing quarter round, preparatory to nailing it in place on a large column. Remodeling Part of the ceiling of the front room has been removed to enable the building and handling the larger flats occasionally required for walls and doors. The other two members of the class, Anita Hamprecht and Louise Rossman, were canvassing the town for necessary props. Once inside the house, it is not hard to imagine all sorts of strange settings for plays, from the old colonial house, which is being used in the present play, “The Wingless Victory,” to old caves, outdoor scenes and splen did mansions. Atmosphere The house, undoubtedly, has at mosphere. From its paint-bespat tered walls, to the long table on which the sets are made, the tone of the “Work Shoppe” is that of the theater. The final touches on the sets are put on at the Guild hall stage in Johnson hall. Some of the painting is done there, as in the case of ceilings and flats used for side walls.

Grad Comments On Internees Mrs. C. W. Woodin, the for mer Frances Jordan, Oregon graduate, recently evacuated from Manila, has commented on the list of persons believed interned at Manila, which has been supplied by aides to the Philippines resi dent commissioner. ‘■It was an extremely strange list of names,” she said. “I know scores of the prisoners. Names and initials are most accurate, but the thing that is most strange is that the list omits the names of many of he most prominent Americans in Manila.” She went on to say that many persons who were too old and ill to escape were not listed. Background Mrs. Woodin was married to Charles W. Woodin in Manila in 1934. He finished his course at Oregon the same year that Mrs. Woodin graduated from the Uni versity. The Burrough Office Equipment company, of which Mr. Woodin was an employee, or dered all wives to return home as relations with Japan became more hostile. Woodin was in frequent com munication with Mrs. Woodin un til December 7.
