Art Show Slanted Toward Child’s Mental Problems By MAYRE BROWNLEE “A school must fit not only the child’s physical requirements, but his psychological needs as well” is the point illustrated at the latest exhibit in the little art gallery in the art building. The display, which was sent from the New York Museum of Fine Arts, is arranged in a manner thoroughly in keeping with the theme in that it is modern, stylized, and gives the spectator a psychological “shove.” The unique setup, which exhibits technique and exploits many of the eye-catching devices employed in modern display and is the brain child of the faculty of the U. of O. school of architecture and allied arts, includes enlarged photographs of ideally designed modern ele mentary schools, their floor plans, and descriptive explanations. These plates line the four walls, as is customary for an exhibit in the little art gallery, but the unusual is that there is more to the exhibit. Small Classes Favored On entering, the observer is first led by two yellow streamers over head, to the opposite end of the room, to the first section of a series of folding screens. On these screens, in direct English and clear pictures it is explained why our grade schools and kindergartens should be modern and airy, with small classes, and how this can be achieved. After one has looked at Sections A, B, and C, tvhich are on the screens, the next natural move is to follow the plates on the walls— but, naturally, some spectators rebel against things like psycho logical shoves and start by looking at the walls. Of course that is ac ceptable, but in that sequence one rather misses the subtlety and ef fective spacing and the continuity of thought. Team Takes (Continued front pane three) nounced that he feared the im pressive high scores of both Dick Wilkins and last year's Northern division leader, Bob Hamilton, but Gill is known for his' pessimistic views where competition is con cerned. Regardless of pregame predic tions and observations, this is one game which cannot be decided un til the final gun. Game starts at 8.

Horn played Clark Gable to Marilyn Sage’s por trayal of Betty Grable. The faculty skit with Mrs. Gerda Brown as mistress of ceremonies, received a hilarious reception. It portrayed secret ambitions, everything from hula dancers to street sweepers. With Colleen Keating as mistress of ceremonies, the sophomore skit demonstrated some tactics in the art of capturing a man. This was the best Coed Capers presented within the last four years, in the opinion of several per sons who had been present at pre vious affairs. Phyllis Evans, chairman, and Mary Riley, AWS president, have worked with committee members for several weeks to develop the pi oduction.

The assembly is scheduled for later in the term and will feature Dr. W. V. Norris, of the physics department, who has recently re turned from a trip of inspection of various student unions through out the country. The displays, which will be found in the Co-op and library during the week of the assembly, will contain pictures and plans of other unions as well as the plan of the Erb Memorial building. The committee discussed plans for a tour some time this term through the Memorial student un ion at Oregon State college. A re port was submitted to the com mittee by the architect for the Erb Memorial student union building, giving details of his trip with Dr. Norris. Actual drawing up of the plans are now being made by Lawrence and Lawrence, Portland architects. Annua! Writers' (Continued from page one) line for the contest.

After the interest shown in the football league this fall, the basket ball season should be a big success. Last year Steiwer hall won the championship in the final game. With the number of good teams that are entering this year, the race for the mythical champions’ cup may be just as close. One more team is still needed to complete the roster. If you are in terested in entering a club, or if you wish any information, contact Bill Mayther at the SAE house, or call 2800. More information about the in tramural program will appear in the sports column of the Emerald. Stamps For GIs Will Be Gathered Postage stamps to be iontribut ed to collections of men in army hospitals are being collected by the Eugene post of the American Legion. Post leaders here report that philately is a popular hobby among the sick and wounded sol diers convalescing in the United States and students are being asked to save stamps for the GIs. Any postage stamps, especially unusual ones, should be given or sent by campus mail to Dr. L. S. Cressman, department of anthro pology, and he will turn them over to Legion members. Both students and faculty members are urged to contribute. The stamps must be cancelled and should be torn care fully from envelopes in order to preserve the full cancellation mark.
