II. OF @. GLEE AND
MANDOLIN CLUBS

The University of Oregon Glee and
Mandolin Clubs will appear at Fer
guson's Opera House Dec. 10. Some
thing new and something doing "all
the time" characterizes the University
Glee Club program this year. No old
and worn out songs but the latest hits
will be given. The Glee Club is sing
ing this year some catchy songs of an
unusual nature. Several of the popu-
lar intermezzos of the day, such as
Amina, Wild Flower and Amo have
been arranged especially for mems
choral club, and the way Oregon's
bunch of songsters go at them is
enough to stir the sense of rythm in a
stone. The comedy end of the pro-
gram will be held up by the
Sutfragette Trio, composed of Messrs.
Curtis Martin and Geisler and a
''skit" entitled, 1.-THE Glee Club in
Dope Center" with Tom Burk, Mel
win Ogden and Vernon Vawter in the
leading roles. In this act are intro
duced Messrs. Curtis, and Geisler, the
'Pretzel Twins" in song and dance,
Frazier in Solo, and the Hungry Six"
German Band, which renders several

TWO CHINAMEN OH THE GLEE
CLUB.
One of the unique features, is the
presence of two Cinnamon, Lai and
Ding. Both are American born and
residents of Portland, and both have
voices of unusual merit. One number
of the program will include solo by
Mr.. Lai. Mr.. Lai is a freshman at
the Varsity and is taking a course in
Chemical Engineering. He will go to
China when he finishes the University
and engage in the cement business.
Mr.. Lai is a member of the first tenor
section and has unusual ability. Before
entering Oregon he studied under
one of the best vocalists in the
country, Mrs. Marie Wigham, of Port
land, who is now in Europe. Harry
Ding has come to Oregon to fit hiself
for engineering work. When he has
completed his course he will enter
Cornell University. Mr.. Ding also
expects to go to China later to devote
himself to engineering work. Ding
sings in the second bass of the club.
PROF. |. M. GLEN SINGS.
Prof. |. M. Glen, the director of the
clubs of the University for the past
fourteen years, needs no introduction
to the music loving public of this
state. His beautiful baritone voice
and amiable disposition have won for
him host of admirers who will hail
with delight the announcement that
the program includes solo by him.
The writer heard the clubs in Port
land at the Heilig last Saturday night.
The show was good from start to fin
ish. The writer was leader of the
glee club from 1908 to 1907 while at
the Varsity, so feels competent to
tell the. people of Hood River that the
boys put up first class show.
