With the coming of the combined cluhs local people will once again have an opportunity of wit nessing an entertainment out of the ; ordinary, something full of spirit and vigor. There Is no class of people on earth . that carries a more distinctive air. that the American public.

The Oregon clubs are composed of ; typical students from a typical college, and people who want a glimpse of real college life will not be disappointed in Ihe men who represent the State Univer sity. On the other hand, those who i love music for its own sake will find the concert all that can be desired. Pro cessor Glen is recognized as a musical director throughout the country, and he i has had more talent and trained voices ' with which to work this year than In any previous season of the clubs. The stunts this year, too. are more than usually creditable. Mr. Voight's dialect monologues, one humorous and :the other pathetic, are of such a quality 'that they would do credit to any pro fessional Impersonator. Van Dusen fur nishes the most laughable element. H ls a genuine comedian and never falls to stnke a responsive chord of merriment. Besides these leading stunts.

The mandolin selections, three in num iber. round out a well-balanced and thor oughly enjoyable programme. Christinas Attraction at Heilig.

De cember 3. will be the noted "Arizona,! so well known to every theater-goer. It will be played by a strong acting com pany and the scenic effects are unusually picturesque.
