Schuster Concert Tonight
By LAURA OLSON
When Joseph Schuster, cellist,
rrives in Eugene today, he will
ring his most pampered posses
sion with him—his cello. His wife
admits that both she and her hus
band play second fiddle to the in
strument, which always rates the
best.
Eugene Civic Music association
members and ASUO members will
have a chance to see both Schuster
and the cello when he appears at
the Igloo at 8:15 p.m. tonight. The
audience will note that Schuster is
smaller than his instrument when
he sits down to play it.
The cello travels in an alligator
skin case, is placed in an upper berth
when the Schusters travel by train,
and is swathed in silk and has po
tato halves in the pockets of the
case to equalize the moisture.
Incidentally, no one except Schus
ter carries the instrument, since, it
might be dropped or damaged in

Group Will Present
'Life of Friendly'
The life of Samson H. Friendly,
former regent of the University,
will be presented on the weekly
Campus Headlines broadcast over
KOAC at 9:00 p.m. Wednesday, and
will be transcribed for release at
9:30 p.m., Thursday, over KEX.
The script is an original radio
play written by Marvin A. Krenk,
production director of University
radio studios, and has been taken
from authentic and documentary
sources.
The broadcast will be produced
by Eloise M. Rockwell, senior in
English. Members of the cast are
Paul Marcotte, Alan Foster, Pat
Smith, Paul Ryman, John MacDon
ald, Theo Feikert, Dick Shelton,
Marion Macy, Marv Horenstein,
Ted Bouck, Jerry Thomas, and Don
Stewart.
This is one of several University
sponsored and student produced
programs presented over KOAC.
The regular Monday night sched
ule features discussion groups from
Dean George S. Turnbull’s senior
editing classes.
some way by a person not adept in
handling- the huge instrument.
Schuster owns two cellos: one is
a Montagnana of approximately
1758, with a beautiful, mellow tone.
The other is a David Techier, which
because of its size and more bril
liant tone, he uses when playing in
the bigger concert halls.
Schuster has been married for al
most three years. His first meeting
with his wife came several weeks
after she first noticed him. Mrs.
Schuster first fell in love with her
husband from a seat in the orches
tra of Carnegie hall when he ap
peared as soloist with the New York
Philharmonic.
She came to every concert he
played—soon he noticed her and be
gan to look for her at each perform
ance. Apparently this could be go
ing on today if a friend of her fam
ily hadn't introduced them. They
were married a short time later.
Mrs. Schuster doesn't mind the
women thinking her husband is a
glamour boy, say the press releases,
because she thinks so too; only she
likes to believe she really married
him for his music.

Thieves Get $80
Of 'Dimes’ Money
Approximately $80 belonging to
the March of Dimes fund was stolen
from a window sill in the Kappa
Sigma house some time Sunday.
The theft was reported Tuesday by
Marv Rasmussen, campus chairman
of the dime drive.
The money, which included a $50
check, the proceeds of the KUGN
record auction, was placed there by
Jack Burris, a member of the March
of Dimes committee, after he had
made collections through the fra
ternity house. About $30 in cash was
donated by Kappa Sigma members,
Burris said.
Believing that the money had
been called for by another member
of the committee, Burris did not re
port the theft untiL Monday, when
it became evident that none of the
other committeemen was responsi
ble for the absence of the money.
Burris reported that the front
door of the house was open, afford
ing ample opportunity for anyone
who knew of the collections to enter
and take the money without detec
tion.
Bill Loud, in charge of the drive
for the city of Eugene, said Tues
day: “It is certainly very shocking
that there are people in this com
munity who don’t have more re
spect for a community project
which ... is for the protection of
the community. I only hope that
the persons in charge of collections
will . . . guard carefully this money,
which is for the benefit of all.”

custom, but initiates and pledges
of five sor orities are still wonder
ing about that sudden onslaught
of males who invaded their hous
es Monday night.
The Phi Delta Theta initiates,
16 strong, revived what they in
sist is a prewar custom when they
visited the Delta Gamma, Gamma
Phi Beta, Alpha Phi, Kappa Kap
pa Gamma, and Kappa Alpha
Theta houses to receive (or to
plant) oscular felicitations in hon
or of their newly-elevated status.
According to Emerald statis
tics, the lads created some kind
of a record, when a total

the 16 boys in something less than
two hours, a rate of more than one
every two minutes.
