Mme. Selivanova Relates
How Career Commenced
By ANNE-MARIE JOHNSON
“The beginning of my career
as a lecturer is quite unusual,”
Mme. Selivanova stated Tuesday
evening at Hendricks hall, where
she was guest of honor.
Mme. Selivanova came to New
York in 1919 after having fled
from Russia. When she arrived in
the United States she had planned
on being an interpreter for Amer
icans and Russians, but she found
no opportunity for an interpreter’s
work. One of her friends asked
her why she did not go into lectur
ing as she had so many interesting
experiences to tell, so Mme. Seli
vanova started preparing data on
Russia. She gathered forty pages
of information, which are the
first forty pages of her first book.
Short Notice
After she had prepared the data
she received a notice from a friend

in charge of the YMCA that she
was expected to give a half hour
speech on Russia in two days.
Mme. Selivanova said, “I was ter
ribly upset as my notes were dis
organized and I had no idea how
to prepare them but after work
ing on them hard for two days I
was ready. I read from my notes
for the first five minutes and then
I just looked up and started talk
ing. What I talked about I have
no idea but they liked it, and that
was the beginning of my lectur
ing.”
Russian Women
Mme. Selivanova has written
several books, the current book
being “The New Women of Rus
sia,” which will be submitted to
the publishers upon her return to
New York in December. She has
also written many stories for

Before coming to the United
States in 1919, Mme. Selivanova

American forces in China, but at
that time in chargte of the Amer

return to my home in New York.”
Following dinner Mme. Selivan
ova told of the youth of Russia
and their ability to understand the
necessity of ridding Russia of
the Germans. Mme. Selivanova
said that many spectacular
achievements were done by chil
dren under twelve.

volve intensive work on defense.
While the Huskies seem to have
smoothed out their offense some
what, Welch figures that improved
pass defense and tighter line play
may save his boys plenty of head
aches from now on.
As for the starting lineup against
Oregon, it will look just about the
same as against USC. The line will
have Bob Nelson at left end;
Harry Rice at left tackle; Fred Os
terhout at left guard; Captain Bill
McGovern at center; Alf Hemstad
at right guard; Doug Vickery at
right tackle and Hein at right end.
The backfield will likely see Joe
Stone starting at quarter, Leo
“Stew” Trask at fullback, Mau
rice Stacy at right half and
Johnny Norton at left half. As in
the USC game, there’ll probably
be some guessing as to the half
back posts. If Stacy and Norton
aren’t in the starting lineup, the
Dick Given, left half, and Norm
Sansregret, right half, will get
the call.
Dash Boots Conversions
Wally Dash will still do all ol
the Huskies’ place kicking. Dash
has annexed six points out of 1C

His surprise touchdown pass
against USC is still the talk of th«
town, and if for nothing else, the
tow-headed kid won his season’?
letter on that one. Norton anc
Hemstad will continue to share
kicking duties for the Huskies
Norton will do the booting as lonj
as he’s in the lineup, while Hem
stad will drop back from his guarc
position to boot ’em when Nortor
is on the bench.
