affair which is looked forwsrd to each
year aa the distinctive college event
of the entire season. A large number
of students and a good many of the
.Instructors, including President Camp
bell, come down for the game and the
aance is a reunion or students ana
alumni, with their other Portland
friends. Invitations will be out next
week. A number of prominent matrons
have consented to act as patronesses.
Rose Eytinge, commonly known
among her host of friends and admirers
as "Lady Rose," will be the central
figure in a benefit given for her Thurs
day 'afternoon, November 9, at the
Hellig. The benefit Is being arranged
by Mrs. Mlna Crollus Gleason, who, her
self a clever actress, has the most deep
founded admiration for Miss Etylnge.
The benefit will be made a society affair
and much interest has already been
shown in it. Members of theatrical
companies in the city will give their
services in making up an entertaining
program and so will pay a pretty com
pliment to the woman whoso long and
brilliant career all do homage to. Miss
Eytinge, who In her day has won the I
plaudits of soma of the largest and
moat fashionable audiences in the coun
try, has made her home in Portland per
manently. Though the program has not
been Anally arranged, there is a general
hope among her friends that she will
contribute, something to. it for those
who heard her at a recent recital of her
pupils were convinced that altnougn
youth has passed her physical body it
has left her brllllsnfc mind unimpaired
and she still has the old fire that en
deared her to throngs of theatre-goers.
Miss Eytinge Is a charming hostess
and her friends call upon her often at
her apartments on Flanders street. Hhj
is full of Interesting- reminiscences and
still does not have the fault of most re
tired stars of reminiscing only about
herself.
