GLEE CLUBS SCORE HIT
WITH PEPPY PROGRAM
Fahnestock, Swedish Monologist
and Irene Oliver in the skit
Mary" Star

| The joint concert of the State Col
lege and o. a. c. glee clubs was given
/ ia the college auditorium Friday
evening, November 10. The pro-
gram was well selected, being COM
posed chiefly of popular numbers.
The program was divided into
three parts, part one given entirely
by Washington State, part two by o.
A. c., and part three by a combina-
tion of the two clubs. Sydney Ali
son and Irene Oliver were the big
features on the Washington State
program, while E. G. Wahnestock, A.
r. Kirksham and the two banjo
players, Hillstrom and Parsons were
the stars of the Oregon Agricultural
College Chanters.
Fahnestock gave a clever mono
logue in Swedish American dialect,
which was original. The banjo duet
was probably prepared just to set the
feet of the audience to tingling, and
they more than accomplished their
purpose. The jazz they played was
almost irresistible. Kirksham's bari
tone solo also brought down storm
of applause,
Sydney Allison, the soloist for
Washington State, sang In the
Shade of the Palm" in a manner that
came up to even the highest expecta-
tions. The college string quartet
was featured in two popular pieces,
In Old Manila and THE Love
ship" The real hit of the evening,
however, was Irene Oliver, who took
the leading part in clever little
sketch with the varsity quartet en-
titled MARY" in which four men
were in love with the same girl. The
last number on the program was
THE Love Nest" sung by Irene Oh
liver and Sydney Allison, with both
glee clubs and the audience coming
III on the last chorus.
o. A. c. is to be especially com
mended on her choice of program
and the manner in which it was
given. Their glee club was organ
lied to come especially for the FRI
day night concert.

OAK TREES

Memorial services were held
Thursday morning in honor of the
students of the State College who
died in their country's service.
President E. o. Holland, in a short
address, urged the students not to
break faith with those who lie in
Flanders field For" he said. IF
you do, it is not they who will not
rest, but you who break the faith. .
Ernest Johnson, president of the
Junior class. announced that the
Junior class was inaugurating the
custom of doing something each
year to commemorate the occasion.
This year 20 oak trees were planted
each bearing the name of one the
boys who died in the service.
These trees were furnished free
to the college by Hugh Burdette of
the Oregon Nursery company. 1t
was Mr.. Burdette's plan that such a
memorial service should be carried
out each year.

they had caused considerable agita-

nearly struck by the inadvertent
missile discovered the name of the
addressee and hurried to the Sixth
precinct station. Here the telephone
was called into urgent requisition
until Steenerson's secretary.was To-

papers as some which. in a general

Diet Elections in ,Saxony
Show Drift Against Red
Socialists.

BERLIN. Nov. 20.-The Diet elec-
tions last Sunday in Saxony show
the same political drift which has
characterized every election lin Ger
many since the revolutionary bal
loting for a constituent assembly
in January 1s19-the weakening OF
the moderate elements among the
Socialists and the bourgeois Liber-
ais alike and growing tendency
to divide into two sharply hostile
camps-conservativ not to say re-
dictionary, and radical labor.
The process this time has prob
ably robbed Saxony of its distinc-
tion as the Red Kingdom" q title
conferred because of the strong So
cialist majorities piled up there un-
der the old regime. The Socialists,
who in the present diet have con-
trolled fifty-seven of ninety-six
seats and thereby a clear working
majority, will probably lose control.
The new diet returns show the elec-
tion of forty-seven non-Socialists
against forty-six Socialists and
Communists of all compilations.
The results do not necessarily
mean the institution of an anti.
Socialist administration akin to that
of Bavaria, since advanced liberals
of the Radical or Democratic party
will refuse to enter a coalition. with
the Monarchistic Nationalist party
II will probably entail a sort OF
minority coalition of the middle
parties such as exists in the Eedera
! government, but another election
like the present might mean the In
stallation of a Conservative cabinet
in the erstwhile Red Kingdom
This in turn, would probably shift
the struggle for power in Saxony
from the ballot-box to the street
since the Communists and the rev
olutionary Socialists, despite all the
dissension over Moscow dictatorship
piled up a menacing vote of two
! fisted, combative. radical proletar
ians. These in the three districts Of
Dresden, Leipzig and Chemnitz alon,
mustered an army of 175,000 voter
l-all pledged to direct action ant
revolutionary methods.
The gains of the two nationals
parties, on the other hand are large
lily due to the heavy vote of women
the great majority of whom show
ed themselves believers in the con
servative cause.
German women, as yet, hav,
shown little prediction for stree
fighting. 4
