responded so well that no class
was required to clean up follow
ing the lunch Friday, Thursday
night gave a hopeful promise ot
beautiful weather over the week
end, but as Friday progressed
hope diminished.
The results of weeks of prac
tice were displayed by the four
sorority houses in Friday morn
ing's Inter-sorority Sing. One
group at a time the women pre
sented their house, novelty and
semi-classical songs until last.
but by far not least in the
judges' estimation, were the
Delta Gammas who were pre
sented with the winning trophy
at Saturday s coronation.
Dodging hailstones and burst
ing clouds entertainers at the
barbecue played to a grandstand
filled with sandwich- and salad-
eating students and guests. Each
women s house had a short dis-
play of talent of the musical
or verbal variety followed by
four of the Hawaiians in several
numbers. Stealing the show
were Bobby Meyer and Duane
Duff in their interpretation of
a hobo number.
Sophomore-freshman compe
tition following the meal was
evenly divided in wins. After
long heckling over the even dis
tribution of men on either side
of the millstream and as to
whether the rope were in the
middle, Queen Edith blew the
starting whistle, the men gave
one straining pull and the old
rope gave way to both sides.
After a second attempt at the
tug - of - war freshmen proved
successful in pulling their op
ponents into the shallow stream.
Sophomores had their moment
of victory however when after
three rounds they still held firm
their possession of the greased
pole.
Whether they were naturals
for their parts or had complete
ly identified themselves with
their individual parts, the audi
ence at the "Their Hearts Were
Young and Gay" production
agreed they had never before
enjoyed such a well cast play
at Willamette. The naive, com
pletely hilarious antics of Cor
nelia Otis Skinner and Emily
Kimbrough played by Sharon
Currier and Colleen Schodde
strengthened the gay mood of
the entire week-end.
When the rains persisted
showing that they were with the
campus for the week-end, the
planning committee met follow
ing Inter-fraternity Sing and de
cided to hold the coronation
ceremonies in the gym. With
greatest of smoothness and sue
cess ceremonies were carried
out for umbrella-carrying stu
dents and townspeople. The
May Pole dance which has be
come quite farcical in the past
few years was presented by the
junior women with poise and
grace, escorted by the junior
men. Although a preview of the
formal dance decorations was
shown Saturday afternoon dur
ing the coronations, dancers
were still properly impressed
with the spring theme which
was such a change from the
winds and rains outside. A pas
tel woven ceiling and draped
enclosed walls combined the
spring and regal themes. Queen
Edith Fairham and her two
princesses and their escorts en
tered upon a raised platform
and steps, sweeping across the
gym to the throne at the oppo
site corner of the room.
THE NATIONAL Secretaries'
association held a social meet
ing, Monday night at the home
of Mrs. Lonnie Hughes. Special
guest for the evening was Miss
Idella McCall.
A short business meeting was
held and a late dessert supper
served. Plans were made for a
rummage sale to be held May
27 and May 28.
WORD has come from Hawaii

Gardner have arrived at Hono

The finishing touch was added to the Mothers' Week-end plans
today as the students eagerly await the arrival of mothers from
all over Oregon and many out of state places. The schedule is
filled to the brim with activities to give the mothers a real idea
of what college life is like and what their offspring are going
through.
Friday night the festivities
will begin with the presentation
of the modern dance recital "Sa
lute to Rhythm." Sixty girls
will take part in this exhibit
which will climax the year's
work. Also Friday evening the
play, "Yea.-s Ago," will make its
debut on the Oregon State stage.
Both of these presentations will
be given on Saturday night too.
On Saturday the college will
show off the various buildings
to the visitors. During this open
house the new dormitory, Sack
ett hall, will be open for the
inspection of the mothers. At 1
the annual statewide meeting of
the OSC Mothers' club will be
held in the Memorial Union
This club now has a member
ship of 3,542 women. In the aft
ernoon a musical show featur
ing the OSC band, the winners
of the inter-fratemity sing, and
a group of feature numbers.
Fingers are being crossed hop
ing that the weather man will
co-operate with the week-end
plans.
Following the musical, an out
door tea is scheduled for lower
campus. Banquets will be held
in the Memorial Union and in
the various living groups Satur
day evening.
Last Friday night students
were thrilled by the Inspiring
inter-fratemity sing. Groups of
25 men from 17 fraternities
showed the results of their ar
dorous practice in the excel
lence of the singing they pre
sented. Last year's winners-
Beta Theta Pi were edged out
by a narrow margin Friday by
the men of Sigma Phi Epsilon.
No one was envious of the Judg
ing staff, who really had a close
decision to make. The Sig Eps
winning songs were written by
their song leader, Jerry Bowder,
and were sung beautifully by
the group.
Something really new and
startling was announced to the
seniors last week. Three separ
ate graduations will be held this
year. A record number of 1541
will receive degrees this year,
of which 453 are from the en
gineering department. The engi
neers will hold their own grad
uation Sunday, June 5, at 8.
