There are about 800 decree-granting institutions in the United States and only about 200 have membership. Only two privately endowed In stitutions in the northwest are members besides Willamette. They are Reed college. Portland, and Whitman college. Walla Walla Oregon Agricultural college gained memnersnip last year. Dean John R. Ef linger of the University of Michigan, represent ing tne association, visited Wtllanv ette last year and expressed him' self as highly pleased with the school. He Indicated at the time that Williamette would probably be extended membership. The first attempt by Baroness Klmlko Shirnae. wile of an official in the household department of the government of Japan, to paint picture, was recently admitted to the Imperial Fine Arts society exhibition at Tokyo. Women In England are buying more expensive wearing apparel than in former seasons. OPERA STARS PAID BUT DON'T WORK Berlin VP) One-half of the oper atic ensemble of the Prussian state operas at Berlin is walking the streets with little to do. However, the pay checks continue to come regul arly. This unusual situation Is due to the fact that the historic opera house Unter den Linden, which has been under reconstruction for more than a year, will not be completed before the middle of February. Meanwhile the state has gone ahead with lta plans for two first class operas at the capital in addi tion to the Civic Opera and engaged two general musical directors, Erich Kleiber, and Otto Klcmperer, and two full casts. All this was done on the assumption that the opera Unter den Linden would be completed by this fall. Instead only the Kroll opera, near the Reichstag, la func tioning, with Klemperer's cast on tne boards. The cast of the former royal opera Unter den Linden has no out let for Its talent at present except an occasional performance In the state theatre. Here, however, the ar rangements for operatic perform ances are inadequate. Also, members of the Unter den Linden cast oc casionally substitute for members at Krolls. The management has also found temporary places for some of tne stars as guesu on provincial stages, and a tour to Holland is un der consideration. When the Opera Unter den Lin den is finally completed it will have what promises to be the most mo dern operatic stage in Europe. The stage properties, too, will lor ine most part be new. The house will be opened by gala performance of Wagner's 'Meisterslnger," and the "Niblungenring," "Tannhaeuser," and "Parsifal." for all of which the Kroll stage la poorly adapted, will follow with new settings soon thereafter. Fears of a cooler winter than nor mal are entertained in Japan be cause snow reoentiy covered Mt. Komagatake 10 days earlier than usual. Because It had not passed on the plans, the council at Pontefract, England, ordered removal of a church, but the congregation re built, and the council has again ordered the building removed. ANCIENT BUDDHA BERLIN EXHIBIT Berlin tP Lovera of art will soon find a rare Buddha exhibited at one of the state art collections ft Berlin. Dr. Kurt Zieckel, representative of Germany in the negotiations for a Jap nese-German trade treaty, was presented with this statue by Dr. Tamaki, representative of the city of Tokio, in recognition of his successful elforts to consummate the treaty. Zlckel decided to turn tlu gilt over to the state lor u museums. T.e Buddha, is 850 years old. A cargo of 3,000.000 feet of spruce lumber was recently sent from Rus sia to Buenos Aires, Argentina.
