Faber DeChaine Returns to Stage In New Role of Finian McLonegan By Jim Haycox Heavy-voiced Harry Brock, the lamhunctuous junkman of “Born Yesterday,” and the guy who play ed the role, Faber DeChaine, are back. So, too, are Dr. Kurtz of “Thun der Rock” and Victor O'Leary of "John Loves Mary.” Again Mr. DeChaine. But in his new role, Finian Mc Lonergan, Faber finds his own •favorite character. Welcoming the change from the realistic tech niques found in former parts, this time stage villain finds Fin ian, a fantasy-type character, just what the doctor ordered. Faber isn’t quite sure when the lure of bright lights became im portant to him, but he thinks that it must have happened in high school. At any rate he's come a long way since that first role. Even during his hitch in the army he kept his interest in the stage alive wherever possible. Best Work in 1949 But his best record of stage work was in the summer of 1949.1 At thllt time he was with the Los' Angeles Repertory as a. technical man and bit part actor. Later on that same summer he moved over ! to the Lagoon Sand Beach Players, where the roles were just a little bit more enticing. A senior in speech, Faber has no intention of calling it quits with stage work when he graduates. He plans to take graduate work in dramatic education with an em phasis on the technical phase and go into teaching—higher education, (Please turn to page seven) Vodvil Acts Eliminations Scheduled Eliminations for the All-Campus Vodvil Show, to be held Saturday night in McArthur Court, will take place starting at 7 p.m. today and Wednesday.

Apr. 12. Student Opinion in Assam Moulds Public Opinion in India By Helen .Jackson "Assam is the gateway to the Communistic countries of China and Tibet, and it is hard for an American student to realize the influence Indian students have over public opinion. As student opinion goes, so goes public opin ion." That is what Neichulieu Haralu, commonly called Nicky, said of her native Assam in an interview Mon day. Nicky was asked to describe the conditions in Assam so that Oregon students could get an idea of the conditions that the World Student Service Fund drive hopes to help alleviate with its funds. WSSF funds this year were voted to stu dent aid in Assam. India. WSSF Gives Hope "I believe that the funds Oregon students donate will not only help the students with their education but will give them hope, and strengthen their idea of democ racy," Miss Haralu emphasized. "Even when very young, students take a part in politics and the ad ministrative fields which is not common in this country." As far as the actual educational facilities are concerned, Assam has only one university for a popula tion of 10 million. Gauhati Univer sity, as it is called, is a university of grass huts, Said Miss Haralu. "Often it is impossible to attend, even if you have the money, be cause of the lack of educational facilities and dormitories,” she con tinued. "If you don't have the money it is impossible to wo; k your way through as it is here.” Contrasts Facilities "We have a so-called library n Gauhati but I still get lost in Amer ican libraries because of their vast ness," Miss Haralue pointed out. According to her. the greatest need in Assam at present is for funds for the medical school. Dur ing September and October of 1951, 300 tremors shook Assam and completely destroyed its only medical school. "Instruments, books, medicines- all were gone, ’ Miss Haralu said. The consequence of the earthquake were floods and famine, which added to the distress. "VVSSF funds are a medium cl’ good will as well as financial aid.” she concluded, “and I certainly think the drive is a most worth while project." Miss Haralu is a graduate stu dent in social sciences and plans to return to India after this school year. Her primary interests aro in the fields of social work, relief work, and international relations.
