    Oregon Cast to Stage One-Act
Mystery, ’Goodnight Caroline’
Goodnight Caroline,” a mystery
play, will be presented May 16 by
a cast of four University students.
The masked bandit of the one
-<lct drama, John MacDonald, thinks
‘‘the play is clever and a good run
ning comedy. As for my part, it so
appeals to my nature I think I’ll
take it up as a profession.”
Becoming accustomed to the part
of a rugged individual, John was
cast as a longshoreman in “Time
of Your Life,” a fall term produc
tion. He has also had experience
in plays and student production of
the campus radio workshop. At
present he is lending his baritone
voice to the Omega chorus.
A veteran of the army artillery
corps, John is enrolled as a sopho
more in English with a radio op
tion. His home is in Portland where
he was graduated from Grant
high.
“Although my part is not a large
one, it is fun to work with,” says
Carolyn Jenks who is portraying
Selma, the maid.

I gress, bred only abused sentiment

eral representatives.
Said Virginia’s Robeson: "I chal
lenge the right of any individual
or group of individuals to deny to
the American people the essentials
of life. I likewise challenge the
right of any union to impose an
excise tax on the goods it pro
duces.”
Especially nauseating was the
immediate parliamentary suppres
sion of Mr. McGregor, who had a
few words to say about war sur
plus. Spake irate McGregor: ‘‘Mr.
Speaker, speaking of surpluses, do
you know what the War Assets
Administration is? It is the suc
cessor to the War Assets Corpora
tion. That was the successor to the
Surplus Property Administration.
That was the successor to the Sur
plus Property Board. That was the
successor to the Surplus Property
Administration. Do you still won
der why the public does not get a
chance to buy war surplus goods?”
Having been alloted only one
minute, Mr. McGregor was prompt
ly silenced by the chair, and debate
proceeded to the more pressing
business of resolving to thank Dr.
Montgomery, a local chaplain.
Never fear, McGregor, we won
der too just what has happened to
the so-called “veteran’s priority”
on surplus. Perhaps the signal
