This Is just one of the many auties that went on at lids donkey session. There was more “horsing around" than anything els*-, but both s|>er lalors and participants seemed to enjoy themselves. Ijite in the game the Senators even tried pulling the ugly men oil their mounts in their scoring attempts. It was difficult at times to tell who was riding what, since the donkeys didn't always cooperate. An estimated 400 sports fans and animal lovers watched the barnyard bazaar in McArthur Court. As one fan described one of the par ticipants, “\\ hat a cool mule."

UO Can't Afford To Save Money The University can’t afford to pay $14,000 now to save $24,000 in the future. This paradox was brought to light when the Eugene Water and Electric Board proposed a new' route for electric wires which would bypass University property. The EWEB has electric wires running through the east section of Eugene adjacent to the University. If the route could be arranged now it would cost about $13, 4)00. If the University W’aits to pay for line relocation each time a new dormitory is built, the cost will probably be about $38,000, according to Supt. Byron Price. EWEB member J. Orville Lind strom, University business man ager, said the line relocation proposal is a good idea, but he doesn't know where the Uni versity can get the money to fi nance the line moves. But the matter will probably be brought up at a meeting of the Oregon State Board of High er Education later this month. Singers Needed Male singers are needed for “Showboat.” Anyone interest ed see Mr. Anderson in 207 Music Building.

Barbara Cha tas, who will be making her fourth UT appearance, is the play’s "old-timer.” The comedy's plot is rather difficult to recount. Its transla tor, Christopher Fry, once re marked that "it is as easy to de scribe as a handful of moonshine.” Thus, he called it "Ring Round the Moon.” WRITTEN by Frenchman Jean Anouihl in 1946, it was translat ed and put into its present form by Fry in 1949. “Ring Round the Moon” is an extremely colorful show, and will feature elaborate sets by Forrest Newlin, and bright, multipurpose costumes by the director.

Mongar recently re ' signed from the committee be 1 cause he felt his presence had "blocked its accessibility to cer tain athletic information.” Goldschmidt stated that his committee will investigate two matters concerning the stadium, the philosophy involved, and the finance proposals. THE STUDY OF the financial arrangements involves making a I comparative study of fees and how they have increased, and fry ing to ascertain what preliminary ' plans for financing the stadium will be. The committee is also taking a survey of how other in stitutions are financing their sta diums and checking into possibil ities of obtaining money for the su-ucture from the state and building fee funds as was done for the new swimming pool. Concerning the philosophy, he •said the committee is concerned with what the stadium would mean to the University. FOLLOW ING THE investiga tion. the committee will try to present a financial statement and facts “so people can make their own decisions." The group will not undertake a criticism of the architectural plans.
