Below the regular Sunday services in Eugene churches are

be beneficial...

DigNewQuiz
Words such as “screw ball,”
“oomph,” “jalopy,” “stooge,”
“brunch,” and “neoprene,” were
included in a definition test which
George Turnbull, professor of
journalism, sprang on his unsus
pecting elementary journalism
class in an effort to class students
into modern, progressive, conser
vative, and Victorian groups.
The test, which was made up
by the Winston Dictionary com
pany, includes 25 modern words
in' common use today.
Most Students “Moderns”
According to Professor Turn
bull, students on the average
scored 80 out of a possible 100
points, classing them in the pro
gressive group.
Out of a class of 30, eight stu
dents defined most of the words
and were thus grouped as “mod
erns;” 14, who didn’t know quite
so many, were classed as progres
sives; six, who didn’t seem to be
up on modern expressions, were
classed as conservatives; and the
remaining two fell into the Vic
torian group.
Novel' Quiz
Most incorrectly defined words
were “lucite,” and “neoprene,”
while “screwball,” “stooge,”
“heil,” and “blackout” couldn’t
be missed.
Just because some students
were classed as Victorians be
cause they might not have known
the meaning of “hair-do,” “dith
er,” “sulphapyridine,” or “er
satz,” didn’t indicate that the
novel quizz should be taken se
riously—they might be just as
modern as the “moderns,” it was
pointed out.

UO Enjoys
Fine Music
By ROSS YATES
A program of classical music
to which students are willing to
listen with ardor and come back
the next week for more is amaz
ing, according to Dr. Theodore
Kratt, dean of the school of mu
sic.
Classical music, Dr. Kratt im
plied, has long been something
to which University students
seem averse. And that students
should gather to hear music—
rather than to gossip, read books,
or go to sleep—he claims is re
markable.
.Sunday Concerts
The series of Mu Phi Epsilon
recorded concerts, to which Dr.
Kratt referred, was inaugurated
this term in the browsing room
of the University library. Con
certs are held every Sunday af
ternoon from 4 to 4:45 p.m.
“It shows that students are
finding room for cultural im
provement,’’ declared Dr. Kratt.
“I don’t now of anything like it
on the Pacific coast.”
California Attendance
Dr. Kratt recalled attending a
recorded concert at the Univer
sity of California at which only
30 students were present out of
an enrollment of thousands.
To the suggestion that in the
future the concerts might be fol
lowed by a few numbers played
by members of the University
school of music, Dr. Kratt ex
claimed, “It would be better than
recitals.”
Recital Solution
He pointed out that often stu
dents play long fecitals in the
music auditorium to a handful of
people, whereas if they could
play a short time before the
crowds which every Sunday at
tend the browsing room concerts,
they would be much more bene
fited.
The concert to be presented this
coming Sunday at 4 p.m. will be
the fourth in the series, which is
sponsored by the Mu Phi Epsilon
patroness group. John Stehn, di
rector of the University band, will
be in charge. As usual, a re
quest box will be placed in the
room to receive student requests
for future programs.
Karsten Ohnstad, blind author
of “The World at My Fingertips,”
is a graduate of St. Olaf college,
Northfield, Minn.
and Rex John Underwood, play
ing Paganinni’s Caprice number
13 and Wieniawski's “Souvenir de
Moscow.”
UO Grad Assigned
To Study Japanese
Donald Castanien, former grad
uate research assistant in the de
partment of Romance languages
in 1940, was recently promoted to
attend the University of Colorado
as a student of the Japanese lan
guage according to word received
here by Dr. Leavitt O. Wright, pro
fessor of Romance languages.
Castanien, who was a member
of the Senior Six while here on the.
campus, has been stationed with
the U. S. naval reserve at Farra
gut, Idaho, where he received his
first class seaman rating prior to
his appointment to the University
of Colorado. According to Dr.
Wright, this appointment will
place him in position for a com
mission as an ensign in the navy.
A member of Phi Beta, national
music honor society; Delta Phi,
French honor society, of which he
was secretary-treasurer, and presi
dent of Sigma Delta Pi, Spanish
honor society, while he was on the
campus, Castanien became a grad
uate assistant during his senior
year. ,
