Tiny 'Dover Road' Actress Longs
For Role of a Mean Woman
By PAT KING
Diminutive, gray eyed Louise Clouston perched on the edge
of a table and determinedly announced she wants to play a
mean, nasty woman. Her red gold curls nodded in agreement as
the sophomore in drama expressed her wish to play Blanche in
the current Broadway hit “A Streetcar Named Desire.”
But, instead of being a meanie. Louise is playing the role of
Eustacia in “The Dover Road,” to be presented Mar. 4, 5, 6,
9, 10, and 11 by the University Theater.'Eustacia is “one of
those dear, sweet women who must always cosset or be cos
setea. As the wire or Leonard
(Dick Rayburn), who has run
away with Anne (Grace Hoffman)
she meets the two elopers at a
country home with 'Nicholas (Ger
ald Lundy), the man with whom
! she is also eloping.
Consider Choices
The two couples are forcibly de
tained by Mr. Latimer (Bob Over)
in his luxurious country home on
the road to Dover in order that
they may have time to sit down
and carefully consider their
choices.
Louise shares her role with Sue
Fernimen, senior in psychology
and last year’s Junior Weekend
Queen.
“It really is advantageous for
both of us to play the same role
because we can watch each other
go through the part and gather
many pointers for our individual
interpretations,” she said. “The
most difficult thing about the play

Registrar Announces
New Card Regulation
Procedure for Spring Pre-Registrafion
Requires All to Carry Out Extra Step
A new regulation for spring term pre-registration, designed
to insure getting class cards to instructors by the beginning of
spring term, was announced yesterday by Registrar C. E.
Avery.
Beginning immediately, students are requested to pick up
“class program” cards, which are to be filled in with the stu
dent’s attendance schedules and turned in with other registra
tion material at the cashier’s office.
Avery said he realized the additional procedure was “ask
ing the student to do one more thing” and that he regretted it
very much. However, he said,
“this is the only efficient way to j
handle the present situation.”
Some Won’t Have To
Those students who have al
ready completed registration will
not be required to fill out the ad
ditional card, Avery added.
By the new move, registration
should be completed in such a way
that class cards for an expected
5,100 enrollees may be turned over
to instructors, and the registrar’s
office can make its records from
the schedule cards, Avery declared.
May Be Obtained Anytime
The new cards may be secured
at the registrar's office in Emerald
hall at any time, or at the dean’s
offices when getting housing
checks. The registrar stressed that
the student would save time by
filling out the card early, rather
than waiting until the last minute,
although they are simple and will
take but a short time to fill out.
Avery said the new regulation
was the only way in which his of
fice could get out student’s grades
at the expected time and still pass
cards on to instructors.
1600 to 60
Of the 5,100 expected to enroll,
3,949 had picked up registration
material by yesterday afternoon,
the seventh day of spring term
pre-registration. About 1,600 stu
dents have yet to pick up material.
Two hundred and three had com
pleted registering, as compared
with 2,400 at the same time last
term.
Adviser counseling in the liberal
arts college, which had bee post
poned for one week of pre-regis
tration, began Monday. Stamping
of cards in the school, which has
been responsible for a tie-up in
registration, is to begin Thursday
morning and will continue until
Saturday noon. Students who do
not have all cards stamped by
that date must wait until March
29 to complete enrollment.
However ' final registration pro
cedures, including the registrar's
check, housing check, and payment
of fees, will be carried into next
week, he reported.
In order to speed lines and avoid
confusion during the final three
days of pre-registration, Avery
said, registration check will be
made in a special room on the
second floor of Emerald hall. Five
special clerks will take care of the
students.
Biology Seminar Set
D. J. Kimeldorf, instructor in
biology, will speak on “Application
of the Intraocular Implant Tech
niques to the Problems in Geron
tology’’ at the biology seminar
March 5, at 4 p.m. in 105 Deady
hall.
Easter Seals
Being Sold
On Campus
Ten cent packets of Easter seals
arc now being sold in campus liv
ing organizations on behalf of the
national Easter seal drive, which
will be held on the campus from’
March 8 to 10. The drive is spon
sored by the National Society for
Crippled Children and Adults.
Local facilities of the Oregon
chapter of the society is the chil
dren’s hospital school in Eugene.
The principal support of the school
is the Easter seal drive.
The hospital school gives treat
ments to spastic and athetoid cases,
in which the muscles are unable to
respond properly.
Facilities of the children’s hospi- ■
tal school include standing tables,
or tables which help children with
weak leg muscles to learn to stand
for longer periods of time. Other
implements which are used to help
strengthen various muscles are a
loom, an electric typewriter, mod
eling clay, walking bars, “skis,”
wood working, and button boards.
Objective of the society is to pro
vide a rehabilitation center in
Portland. The home, would give
care to the type of case which has
reached a technical cure, but with
out the proper convalescent care
could result in a same similar to
rheumatic fever.
Another objective of the society
is a plan for home-bound treat
ment, which would provide aid for
people who live in sections not
heavily enough populated to have a
hospital.
