Fish Tells Story Scientific Film Uncovers Fish Communication Discovery that the "silent deep’’ is not silent after all forms the ba sis for a scientific color-sound film, "Voice of the Deep” to be shown at 7:30 p.m. Sunday in First Bap tist church !4 according to Rev. Vance H. Webster, pastor. This is one of a series of sound color films being produced by Moody Bible Institute in an effort to link science and religion. Two previous productions, “God of the Atom” and “God of Creation” have been shown to four million people in schools, army camps, churches, and hospitals. Contrary to the age-old belief that there is no sound under the sea, “Voice of the Deep” reveals that fish have a definite language of their own. Their aquatic conver sations in the film resemble the pe cular quacks, grunts, whistles, and clucks of a barnyard. A congregation of snapping shrimp sounds like a crackling for est fire, while a school of Chesa peake Bay croakers was once mis taken for an invasion of enemy ships.

New Faculty Member Editor of Outdoor Magazine; ^ Here from Smith, Wants Time for Opinion of Oregon* By Alicia Peters Five books bear the name of Rob eson Bailey, author and editor, and a new University faculty member.

That one depends on the other is clear. It must be very obvious that no one can organize the knowledge of music without at least a good knowledge of music itself, which means either composition or per formance and probably both to some degree. Dr. Cykler played some record ings which were reproductions of original manuscripts and that had been discovered by musicologists. The twelfth century writings of Leonin considered the first impor tant composer in music history were heard. And among other au thentic reproductions was a Yaqui Indian deer dance, with instrumen tation of notched piece of wood, and the voices of a dog and a Ya qui Indian. “Musicologists aim always to present the truth and facts about music,” concluded Cykler, “to the end that there will be more interest in it.” STUDENT ACCOUNTS Are Welcome At this Bank Open an N.

Mr. Bailey came here from Smith College, a women’s college of liberal arts in Northampton, Massachu setts. He is introducing into the uni versity curriculum a three-hour se quence course in novel writing, which he taught with great success at Smith. The students in this course write a portion of a novel each term. The other courses Mr. Bailey teaches are short story, ad vanced short story, and one section of freshman English. Mr. Bailey speaks proudly of his five children, the oldest of which is twelve, the two youngest being twin boys of four and a half. His family is situated at present in a two-bedroom flat in tne Amazon " district, che one thing, perhaps,, clouding his otherwise enthusiastic attitude toward his new position and his new home. * Prior to his coming to Oregon, * Mr. Bai'.ey had never been farther^ east than Pennsylvania. He receiv ed degrees from Harvard and Rad- ^ cliffe and a year later began teach- . ing there. He taught there for 10 years, then 8 and a half at Smith. He came to' Oregon because he liked the idea of - “coming out West,” and was plan- . ning to take a sebatical leave here anyway. * He liked everything he had heard “ about the University of Oregon and - “almost everything” about the-, state. The new faculty member is still not quite sure about how he likes Oregon. “Give me three months,” he said, - laughing. BRAEMAR CASHMERES ... the imported from Scotland cashmere you'll have to have!
