day they will be greeted by this
bevy of smiling girls who will
take them on a tour of the cam
pus, and' see that they arrive at
living organizations for dinner.
The interfraternity council has
announced that the 28 “swing
sters” of the Dorsey band will
spend the night at the different
men’s houses, according to Pat
Cloud, Homecoming chairman.
Sitting Iloom Only
All tickets for the dance have
been completely sold with the
exception of balcony seats for
listening at $1.10 a person. The
dance will start at 9 p.m. and
end approximately 12:15. Late
permission has been granted for
the evening.
After much discussion short
silks have been definitely decid
ed upon and absolutely no flow

Sign Entries Due
A final warning- was an
nounced by Bill Lilly, sign con
test chairman - all houses must
have their entries in by 12 noon
today. No sign can be judged
without an entry. These are to

original and appropriate sign, and
one to the winning men’s living

“O” Men Meet
Saturday noon in Gerlinger
hall will be the annual get-to
gether of all lettermen alums at
the Order of the “O” luncheon.
“Because of the lack of trans
portation and as the army has
been turned into a filter center,
the alumni gathering after the
game at the Eugene armory has
definitely been cancelled,” stated
Cloud. •/
Three o'Clock Club
Three o’Clock club meets to

ers invited to attend.
The meeting is of special im

who is moving to Medford.
part of its acting personnel; and
who will, therefore, be eligible for
consideration of any active roles
that are not filled by the regis
tered players,” said Mrs. Seybolt.
Various Types
Some jobs are constant
throughout the year, including
make-up custodian, costume cus
todian, typists, and office work
ers, while others, such as ticket
sellers and other assistants to
the business manager, exist pri
marily during the two or three
weeks immediately before a pro
duction.
Besides making the holder eli
gible for consideration of any
roles in major productions not al
ready filled by the regular com
pany of Guild hall players, each
job will offer its holder useful
and valuable experience, thinks
the drama director.
Accidental Breaks
“Many a successful actor in the
professional theater received his
first 'break’ by accidentally be
ing on hand when a fill-in was
needed and making good in that
opportunity,” she added.
At present, out of a long list of
volunteers who have signed as
script girls, Beverly Beals, June
Grantz, Gerry Stowell, and Peg
gy Brattain are helping with the
forthcoming' production, “Watch
on the Rhine,’ which opens Fri
day, November 13, one week
from today.
Box Office Assistants
Box office assistants on this
same production include Norma
Baker, Marilyn Odom, Ed Pren
tice, and Gale Edinger.
Additional aides will be needed
soon, so all persons interested
should give their names and tele
phone numbers to Keith Hoppes,
business manager, located in 103

versity extension 217, it was re
ported.
Special Interests
Mrs. Seybolt is anxious to hear
from any students who have spe
cial interests in other phases of
the theater such as make-up, pos
ter design, costuming, and pub
licity writing.
According to Mrs. Seybolt, a
person need not be an actor to
be active in dramatics, for it
takes all kinds of people to make
up a theater group.

Drama Studio
Holds Auditions
Drama students auditioned for
the first lower-division produc
tion in the history of the depart
ment, last night at 8 in the stu
dio cottage, under the direction
of Horace Robinson, dramatic

more experience. Approximately
half of the Guild hall plays of
the year will be opened to fresh
men, sophomores, and some jun
iors, according to Mr. Robinson.
Students, who were unable to
attend Thursday's tryouts, may
contact Mr. Robinson in the
drama studio Monday, Wednes

3 p.m. for auditions.
