The Miami II Hurricane the official student publication of THE UNIVERSITY OF MIAMI Vol. 6 Coral Gables, Miami, Florida, March 25, 1932 No. 23 u. of M. Symphony Orchestra Gives 7th Concert of Season Margaret Weaver Reid To Be Guest Artist on U. Program Sunday OREGON SYSTEM OF HIGHER EDUCATION IS REVOLUTIONIZED The seventh concert of the University of Miami Symphony Orchestra will be given next Sunday, March 27th at the Miami High School auditorium. William J. Kopp will wield the baton. Guest artist for the concert will be Margaret Weaver Reid, contralto. It will be the next to the last program to be given by the group this season. The first number on the program will be the overture, “Merry Wives of Windsor”, by Carl Otto Nicolai, noted composer of Koenigsberg. He died soon after the brilliant triumph of his opera in Berlin in 1848. The work has long held the place of one of the most popular of the comic operas. Symphony No. 4 in F Minor, by Tschaikowsky, fellows. His fourth symphony is less subjective in feeling than the fifth and sixth, but is no less an example of the composer’s extraordinary musicianship. The first movement is said to illustrate the contrast between grim reality and flattering dreams; the second is a picture of melancholy brought on by retrospection; the third is merely a series of capricious arabesques not expressing any definite emotion; while the finale draws a moral by setting the rich healthy life of the people by the side of anemic culture. The symphony has the barbaric splendor uncommon in Tschaikowsky, and shows how easily, when he chose, he could beat his “nationalist” fellow-countrymen on their own ground. INTERMISSION There follows the Prelude to Act I of Wagner’s Lohengrin, which breathes the very spirit of the “Legend of the Holy Grail”. Wagner has himself described the prelude as a tonal vision of the arrival of a host of angels bearing the sacred Grail. Its whole dealing is with the metaphysical. Margaret Weaver Reid will sing Bach's “My Heart Ever Faithful”, and “The Wanderer” by Schubert. <• The closing number will be the L'Arlesienne Suite No.2, by Georges Bizet, one of the most distinguished of the modern French composers. His incidental music to Doudet’s play, L’Arlesienne, was very successful in itself. The second of the orchestral suites is in four movements, Pastorale, Intermezzo, Men-uet and Farandole. Drinking Has Decreased At Harvard, Is Opinion (BY COLLEGE NEWS SERVICE) Cambridge, Mass. —- During the past two or three years, drinking at Harvard University has de-erreased to a point lower than at any other time since 100 years ago, Df- Alfred Worcester, professor of hygiene and supervisor of student health, declared this week. The decrease during the century has been steady, he said, but “has been notable and highly gratify In8” in recent years. ( BY COLLEGE NEWS SERVICE ) Portland, Ore. — Oregon this week was rocked by an unparalleled educational revolution, affecting each of the five state-owned institutions of higher learning. Taking drastic steps in order to save $2,181,000 during the next two years, the State Board of Higher Education unanimously adopted a report of its curriculum committee, which recommended that the University of Oregon, Oregon State College and three normal schools in various parts of the state be combined under a centralized administration. The plan, to go into effect next fall, eliminates “non-essential duplication” by concentrating technical schools on the Oregon State College campus at Corvallis and cultural schools, as well as the school of business administration, at the University in Eugene. A chancellor in Salem, the state capital, will be responsible for ac tivities on six campi, including the University’s medical school , at Portland. Resignations of five incumbent presidents, therefore, are expected. Meanwhile, the following revolutionary changes will be made : 1. Establishment of six schools each at Eugene and Corvallis. At Eugene — schools in the field of liberal arts, social sciences, law, business administration and commerce, fine arts and physical èdu cation. At Corvallis—technical and scientific schools, including home economics, agriculture, physical and biological sciences, engineering forestry and pharmacy. 2. Present schools of architec ture and music will become parts of the school of fine arts at Eugene Medicine will remain at Portland 3. Schools of journalism arid applied social sciehce at Eugene are abolished, although courses ir< journalism will be offered. The school of mines and department of journalism at the state college also are abolished. 4. Degree granting curricula in military science and tactics will be discontinued. 5. Upper division, graduate and professional work will be given only on the campus where the major school is located. Students will not major until the junior year and will move from one cam pus to another, if necessary. Students at the two institutions principally affected, although ob viously stunned by the sweeping changes, appeared to accept the in evitable, and while a riot was reported at Oregon State—because of the loss of the school of com merce, which goes to Eugene—this was denied. At the University some resent ment was expressed against the elimination of the journalism school, “but in the financial crisis that confronts us, we must make sacrifices,” declared the Oregon Daily Emerald. The Emerald added however, that “frankly, we are not satisfied with the results (of the board meeting).” Chairman Abras Announces Appointment of New Prom Committee unior Prom Will Be April 8th At C. G. Country Club Brickell Park Is Selected As Site For Shakespearean Play April 1st CALENDAR The date and place for the Junior Prom has been definitely settled, Jimmie Abras, chairman of the general committee, announced yesterday. The annual dance, which ranks as the outstanding social occasion of the school year, will be held on Friday, April 8, at the Coral Gables Country Club, which has been secured exclusively for the university and its guests. Seniors must pay, was the edict issued by committee heads. Abras also announced that an entirely new prom committee had been named, which included the following: Bill Fenwick, Robbie Robinson, Claude Barnes, Marguerite Sw-eat, and Luke Crowe. With the selection of this group, preparations were begun to enable this year’s dance-to reach a hew high-water mark of success. A keynote of novelty will be carried out through the entire program, it was said. Although there will be the usual favors, decorations, and entertainment, those to be presented this year are to be strikingly different from any heretofore used. Details on the favors, to be given out immediately after the grand march at 1:00 a. m., will not be disclosed until that time. Music will be offered by Ralph Calvetti’s Californians, which has been rearranged and augmented by several pieces. They will play popular collegiate numbers and University of Miami songs.

Tickets for the prom will go on sale tomorrow or Monday, and a valuable prize will be awarded to the organization selling the greatest number of tickets.
