Dorothea Thomas Shines in 'Victory' Special acclaim should be giv en to Dorothea Thomas, junior in liberal arts, for her convincing portrayal of the sophisticated novelist, Alden Baline in last night’s performance of “Dark Victory”. Leads, Kay Korn and Frank Krasnowsky, gave their expected excellent performances and, to quote Stage Manager Barbara Huntington, freshman in liberal arts, “The play really clicked last night. I’d like to be able to give a few bouquets but it always hap pens I’m in a coiner where I can’t see.” Ruthe Foreman, assisting stage manager, asked only one ques tion: “Did you see the knot holes?” She painted them for the Vermont scene. “I think the supporting cast is wonderful,” moderately acclaimed Robert Forman, stage crew mem ber and part of the supporting cast. J. C. Merriam Named To Steering Committee Dr. John. Campbell Merriam, who has been doing writing and research on the campus for sev eral months, has been appointed a member of the steering commit tee of the new science planning committee recently appointed by the University of Oregon chapter of Sigma Xi, science honorary. This is the correct Merriam rather than Willis B. Merriam whose name was inadvertently included in the story published in the Em erald. Beavers Battle (Continued from page onej The teams will enter the game on even odds and anything can happen. The Orangemen made the Huskies tight to the final gun last week as they lost two close contests. This was the same team that the Ducks were defeat ed by so easily in the last games they played. Probable starting lineup for Oregon State will be: Simms and Reiman at the forward positions, Puddy at center, and Anderson and Lee as the guards. This line up, besides giving the Beaveis power, will also give them a speedy quintet. For the Wcbfoots the probable starting lineup will be Danner and Caviness as forwards, Bray at center, and Hamilton and Hen wood at the guard positions. The above lineups are not fea tured by tall players but rather by fast ones. The game should be one that features fast breaks and long shots instead of stalling. ASTU's Will Vte (Continued from page one) The lineup tonight will be: Worth and Kulesh at forwards, Nail at center, Cuthbert and Kramme at guards. Victory Petitions Due Petitions for chairmen anti executive board members of the newly-organized Total Victory league must be turned in to Peggy Magill, temporary chair man of the group, at the Delta Gamma house by noon Monday. Four UO Alumni Get Commissions Four Scabbard and Blade mem bers, Albert Allen, Richard Ral ston, Robert Blickenstaff, and Frank Baker, have been commis sioned as second lieutenants in the army. All four recently grad uated from th officer candidate school at Fort Benning, Georgia, where they took a course includ ing technique of handling infantry weapons and tactics of leading small infantry units in combat plus a study of varied subjects which officers must know along the lines of administration and military law.

Allen was also a member of the Order of “O”; Ralston belonged to Sig ma Delta Psi, physical education honorary, and was senior class treasurer; Baker was house man ager for Sigma Delta Chi fratern ity and played freshman basket ball and varsity tennis. Bill Goldstein Surrenders Date Bill Goldstein sophomore in lib eral arts, and the fellow who won a date with Irene Gresham, Ore gon’s “Bonds Away Girl’’, by pur chasing the largest bond bought by a male student, has relinquish ed his date to any soldier student whom Miss Gresham chooses.

Pre-Mets Eye (Continued from page one) Reed cagers ahead of the Mets in height, but they also boast a strong outfit which includes stars who formerly played at Iowa State and Kansas university. What the Pre-mets lack in height they hope to make up in speed. All week the Hendricks quintet has been polishing up its fast break and quick-opening block plays and they are set to use these maneuvers to keep their victory record intact. Should the Portland cagers throw up a zone defense, the Ore gon five will be content to use tile same offense they used in last Sunday's victory—potting long shots from the center and side. Tip-off time is slated for 3 p. m. Mitchell and Stakkestad will prob ably open at the forward spots with Medlin and Thompson hold ing down the guard posts. Butkus or Bovyer will start at the pivot spot. Westminster college alumni i:i the service now number more than 650.
