G^rls Needed
For Red Cross
Social Work
More girls are needed to help
with the social work that the Red
Cross has been doing for the past
several weeks in Springfield, ac
cording to Jane Alice Pengra,
chairman of the committee of
University Red Cross workers.
Each girl is asked to spend two
hours typing and filing during the
afternoon. Miss Pengra stressed
thjfcpvork done by the girls must
be^rept strictly confidential.
All girls interested in the work
should get in touch with Miss Pen
gra at the YWCA. A station wag
on will meet them at 3:30 p.m. on
the days they are to work, takc
them to Springfield and return
them to the Y at 5:30 p.m.
During the biggest weekend at
the University Red Cross in Chap
man hall, January 30 to 31, the
highest record turned out over
one weekend was broken. Almost
950 surgical dressings were roll
ed, and nearly 80 girls did the
work.
The quota asked by the govern
ment is 1,000 per weekend. If the
girls who have helped one week
end will come back for another
there should be no difficulty in
reaching the mark.
•le weather tomorrow will be
fine, if it doesn’t rain. Should it
rain, the weather will be only
fair.
If you think it snowed down
here, you should have spent last
week in the high country.

Ruth Merritt’s
Recital Planned
With the singing of songs by
classicists of the 18th century
and modernists of the 20th cen
tury, Ruth Merritt, lyric soprano
and senior in music at the Uni
versity will present her gradua
tion recital February 9 at 8:15
p.m. in the school of music au
ditorium.
Miss Merritt is a pupil of Sig
urd Nilssen, professor of voice at
the University. Mr. Nilssen has
described her voice as “one of the
finer voices on the campus.”
Among the numbers which Miss
Merritt will present is the aria,
“With Verdure Clad,” from Hay
dn's oratorio, "The Creation,”
and a recitative, “And God Said,
Let the Earth Bring Forth” from
the same work.
Miss Merritt has also chosen
“Orpheus with His Lute” by Ar
thur Sullivan, “Should Florindo
be Faithful” by Scarlatti, “Rose,
How Enchanting Art Thou,”
from the opera, “Zemire and
Azon” by Spohr, and “I Am Thy
Harp,” by R. H. Woodman.
Dr. Secoy Called
For War Survey
Dr. Charles H. Secoy, professor
of chemistry at. the University,
announced that he would leave
for Columbia university in New
York about March 1 on a leave
of absence granted him. In the
east he will engage in government
war research.
At Columbia Dr. Secoy will
work under Dr. George Cady, who
directed his work at the Univer
sity of Washington when he was
working for his doctor's degree.
He has been instructing classes in
essentials of physics and a physi
cal science survey in addition to
his chemistry classes because of
the large enrollments in physics
classics.
Granted a leave for the spring
term, Dr. Secoy said he may find
it necessary to request a longer
absence.
Girls Won’t Need
Extra Sweaters
Although the University has
been using less fuel this year, no
serious shortage of “hog fuel”
(sawdust) is expected, since the
worst of the winter cold is over,
predicts Mr. D. L. Lewis, superin
tendent of the physical plant.
In the main, Mr. Lewis said,
campus buildings are heated by
burning sawdust, although some
crude oil is burned. Only one car
of oil has been used by the plant,
while last year, the plant saw
three cars used.
“We used less oil not because of
the shortage, but because this
winter has not been so hard,” be
explained.
Fuel rationing is expected, he
stated, but what the University
allotment wil lbe can not be known
until a definite system has been
established and the figure set for
campus fuel consumption for this
year.

UO Orchestra
To Play Sunday
Two piano concertos in D min
or, one by Rubensteiu and the
other by MacDoivell, will be pre
sented by the University sym
phony orchestra when it plays its
second concert of the school year
Sunday, February 7, at 3 p.m. in
the school of music auditorium.
Leone LaDuke, senior in music,
will play first and second move
ments of the MacDowell concerto.
Everett Fulton, senior in Eu
gene high school, will play the
first movement of the Ruben
stein concerto, a rarely per
formed example of Polish nation
alistic music.
A concerto grosso by Arcan
gelo Corelli for two violins, vio
loncello, and string orchestra will
be played by the string section
of the orchestra. Soloists for the
work will be Verne Sellin and
James Gibson, violins, and Bar
bara Bagley, cello.
The overture, “Russian Easter,”
by Rimsky-Korsakoff completes
the program. This is an overture
on Russian church themes.
The concert is presented by the
University school of music in co
operation with the educational
activities board. Rex Underwood,
professor of music at the Univer
sity school of music, is director.
Verne Sellin, sophomore in music,
is concert master.
Five o'Clock Shadow
(Continued from page one)
America lip to Alaska. As to view
ing the eclipse, Mr. Pruett ex
plained, “The very best way to see
it is, if they had field glasses, to
put photographic film over the
lens and look through it.’’ Mr.
Pruett pointed out that smoked
glass would also be effective. “One
should be away from nearby hills,
else the sun will set too soon,’’
Mr. Pruett warned.
Old Stuff
Mr. Pruett has taken many pho
tographs of eclipses, and plans to
take one of this eclipse, "if it’s
clear.” The best way to photo
graph eclipses, he says, is to use
slow film and set the camera at
the smallest stop and shortest ex
posure possible. The camera
should be pointing in the general
direction of the sun and not be
disturbed during exposure.
One Chance
“My best bet is we won’t see it.
because of clouds,” Mr. Pruett
stated. “Chances are 99 to 1 it
won’t be clear.”
Solar eclipses can occur only
during a new moon. New moons
happen about once a month, but
since most times the moon passes
to one side of the sun, an eclipse
takes place but seldom. An eclipse
of the sun takes place when the
moon comes between the earth
and the sun, thus shutting off the
rays of the sun from the earth.
