OREGON 581-1641, Ext. 231 For Immediate Release Roger Bergmann, a 1962 graduate of Tigard High School, has been elected Freshman Glee Manager for 1963 at Willamette University in Salem. Picked to assist him is Michael Steeling, son of Mrs. Florence Steeling, 1321 NE 46th Avenue, Portland. Bergmann is a pre -law major at Willamette while Stedman is majoring in psychology. The Freshman Glee is a contest between the four classes at Willamette. Each class writes the words and music for an original song and then presents it to the student body. 'Ihe theme of this year's Glee is "Novelty" and the event will be dedicated to Dr.- Robert M. Gatke, professor emeritus at Willamette. The winning class will be selected on the basis of the words and music of their song. its presentation and the formation marching of the group.

Now we have the officml . scoring. In words and music, high went to the seniors wtth 81 points out of a possible 90, followed by ~e juniors with 72, sophomores Wlth 66 and freshmen with 65. In formation, the freshman were high with 88 points out of 90 possible, followed by the sophomores with 81, the seniors with 75 and the juniors with 67. . The all-important presentation, with a possible of 120 points-resulted in a nearly perfect 113 for the sophomores, 103 for the juniors, 99 for the seniors, and 95 for the frosh. So, what is now common knowl- \ edge-namely the overall results-, were achieved with grand totals of 260 points out of 300 possible for the sophomores, 255 for the seniors 248 for the freshmen and 242 f~r the stream-wetted juniors.

Theme Renewed After Four Years of Freshman Glees The 1963 Novelty Glee theme is no novelty to those who have been around long enough to recall a number of Glees past. The last Novelty theme was carried out four years ago, March 13, 1959. WITH THE Oregon Centennial providing a boost in spirit, the classes competed for the coveted Glee banner. 'When the din had been momentarily quieted, the sophomores emerged triumphant The seniors found themselves in second place; the juniors, third; and the freshmen-into the Mill Stream. The victorious sophomores, incidentally, came back to win that year from a fourth place sw.im the year before. Seventy-sIX sen i 0 r s presented "South Sea Holid~y" from a formation of bongo drums. The juniors, 90 strong, winners in their freshman year, formed an umbrella and sang "Humidity Ditty." THE 118 ecstatic sophomores captured first place with their rendition of "This Must Be Oregon," depicted, naturally enough, by a map of Oregon in the center of which was the date 1859. The Mill Stream beckoned to 189 frosh when they sang an "Ode to Jason" after forming a tombstone with "Jason" inscribed thereon. An addition to the Saturday night festivities of 1959 was the presentation of the senior "cut-ups" now reserved for the challenge assembly. The challenge assembly that year included class demonstrations designed to humiliate their adversaries. From the follow-up article on Glee that year in ,the Collegian ! came this warning: "Unfortunately, I, a few belligerent swimmers failed I to take the watery dip, which they I earned by lOsing Freshman Glee, 1 without pulling in a few upper I classmen.

There are those who- attack it' ~th sarcasm and ridicule, and there are those who defend it with piety and indignation. On the whole, students tend to accept Glee pretty much at face value: as a chance to get together and just have some plain good fun - for its .own sake. This js the only real justifi-' cation for Glee, and it is not without merit.' < HOWEVER, the appeal of Glee -as fun for the sake of fun-is not universal, and the campus is ,consequently divided into participants and non-participan~. Some of the' non-participants do have valid 'criticisms of Glee: it does infringe upon study time, and it does seem that perhaps the effort put into it could be devoted to something 'more worth-while. l M~y 'people feel that thl(iri time would~ be· better spent elset'here than lin ! 30 hours of Glee practice.' Furtb.6nD.ore. the who}e, thing ~eems rather 'c4ildlike" and p,ointless; 'On the other hand, Glee does have a certain amount of value besides being just plain fun. It is the one big event of the year that . people together in other than standard groupings - by class in- , stead qf by living organization. Furthermore. it gives at least a few people a chance to do something creative, and it gives everybody a 'chance to let off steam. 'IN THIS respect Glee serves the same kind of function as a panty raid; it is a tension releaser, a study break. Glee is also valuable as an experience in group dynamics and cooperation., In the final analysis both sides of the issue have some validity. Therefore, let those who participate in Glee do so with an aim to mak- \ ing the most .out of it, optimizing ,the good pOints and minimizing the bad points. And let those vyho feel that they can put their time to better use do so, and not merely talk abo~t it. But let neither side catagOrically condemn the other. Mhriag~r Bergmann Reports '.

IN 1954, senior cla.ss president Kent Hotaling and junior class preSident Chuck Seagrave swallowed live goldfish to payoff their , Glee bets. One year an unfortunate loser gave Dean Mark Hatfield (now Governor Hatfield) a pedicure. One favorite trick has been clipping off professor's ties. Who was the smarter-than-the-average prof who ran a wire through the middle of his? The profs have sometimes fought the chaos of Blue Monday, and most notorious is the teacher who expelled the scantily clad students from the classroom, only to find his own son peddle in on a tricycle, wearing only shorts. In 1909, &e Glee banner was strictly improvised, having been sewed together by the Freshman class. In 1923 a traditional banner was obtained, only to be ripped to shreds by an enthusiastic winning class. Speculations are now beginninng for this years banner. Who's going to win Glee in '63?

The latter will be subdivided intod fonnation and vocal rendition. Dr. Daniel Schultze, the old time master of suspense will announce the winning Glee class at the completion of judging. Dr. Schultze h~ seen 38 'years of Glee competition as a faculty member of Willamette University. Novelties is the theme for this year's Freshman Glee. Plans are well under way due to the leader-ship of Glee manager, Mike Steding. The challenge assembly selIeduled for Febroary 28 will initiate the class competition to be climaxed by the songfest Glee night, March 9. Glee roles are now available in all living organizations. All songs must be turned into the alumnae office no later than Febroary 23. Tentative fonnations are due Febroary 19 with final plans in by Febroary 28. .

Every year since 1908 the Freshman class has challenged the other classes to compose a song and present it on the evening of Glee. "Novelty"is the theme of this yearts Glee Which will be held on March 9. Many lOl.lg hours are put in by each class in producing its song and accompanying formation. Once this is accomplished, the classes must practice their songs and formations for approximately five hours a day for a week. The final production is judged on words, music, adaptability to the theme, formation, and presentation. The winning class will receive the cardinal and gold Glee banner for 1963, while the losing class will look forward to a Blue-Monday romp through the Mill Stream. The Executive Committee would like to ask your assistance in jUdging the words and music. For this, you need not be present, unless you wish to be.

In order to do this we increased the nwnber of pages (paid for by the used of advertisment) and the number of pictures per page ( increased from 4-6 to 9/page and more). In order for the edition to be a successful one requires a lot of work and time on you and your cOll!ni ttee t s part. There are steps which need to be taken before you can actually start putting the edition together. These are: 1. Assign your com"litte members specific jobs and set them deadlines in accordance vii th the ones set for you by the glee manager. 2._ Contact printers in to'tln and take bids. Select them on the basis of: vlOrkrnanship and price. 3 .. Contact a photogra!)her and explain the nature of the job thouroughly to hLl" (usually a photographer from the Collegian or Waloola will do the job, also he is the cheapest) 4. Limit the siae of your cO!l1rai tte to 5 or 6 as anymore makes it cumbersome and hard to uork vlith. 5. Do some researcil into past years and see hQ1'..J thp;y handled the jobo Hake sure you undeEstandi the job weel as your cOIn;,littee will be looking to you to show them the many aspect of it and answer their questions. 6. Take time to talk to the printer and have him explain to ypu the use of lay-out sheets, durn:ay copies, etc. Also the deadlines he would lil:(: things In. 7. Finally, good luck in your job as you will enjoy it a lot and be able to look back on it \.Jith pride. There are several picture 3 which you will need to take and include in the edition. They are: I.The winning class 2. PictUres of all the Glass format 3. O.ca,anizational pictures \-llhich includes song and formation leaders, manaGer, executive cot:L .. i ttee, and various committee heads. 4.GI:k'l11engc As,cembly and Senior cut-ups 6 .. Action shots of Gl e Night 6. Action shots of Blue Nonday 7., Picture of person wh.om Glee is dedicated to 8. Optional-Advertisement( if you decide to have it be sure and clear it with t!1e Student Senate) 9 .. Also shots of preparation for Glee(class practices, backdros, etc) The budget needed will vary but generally for an 8 page edition it will cost $150.00 and for a 12 page edition, $235 dollars. Try and keep the costs, as low as possible by,rt don.t cut costs to the point of making the edition ,look,s:p.oddy. Finally I am going to stress the importance of organiztion withing you committee. you are going to have to spend a lot of time and effort especially after Glee. Be sure and explain this to your committe and those who don't feel 'that they can help to any degree for get about. But don't lose heart, you have one of the most important and personally rewarding jobs connected with Glee. Good luck in your edition and I hppe you have the fun I have had putting together this year1s souviner edition. BACKDROP REPORT As co-chairmen of the backdro~ for Freshman Glee, we especially enj oyed ',;orking with our fine committee. Each member gave all his time and efforts toward m,'3.,king this year's Fresr~an Glee backdrop a success. All the time and worry put into the backdrop was certainly well-worth its while and highly satisfyin~ to all its members. E3ch succeed-inc chairman must also put all his enerzies .s'nd efforts in-to the backdrop to mal{e it just as successful--if not more-- than the preceeding year as this is ,,,,here tbe freshman class can show how truly interested they are in heing a pqrt of Willamette University's great traditi n.

This year 'our committe members were chosen for us so we were unable to pick some really interested and cooperative people. In the end, we were forced to supplement our committe with interested people outside the committee. The next most important thing to get in mind--and this is very important--is to get the backdrop design and color scheme as soon as possible. Since the decorations must pick up their colors and design from the backdrop, any delay by the backdrop people can cause your committe to lose a great deal of valuable time. And, when following your backdrop you should remember to be sure you are using the closest possible color matches. We really didn't have any problem with this but it is something to watch out for. As for a working place, we found the workshop back stage in the Fine Arts building to be the most satisfactory. We originally;- startec working in the attic of Waller, but it turned out to be too dark, dirty, and too difficult to obtain the keys. Be sure to have the correct measurements for all your decorations. We found out at the st minute that we didn't have enough butcher paper to cover all the area we had planned. S})eaking of butcher pc. per , be sure not to get waxy finished paper--the fire proofing wontt stick to it.

Vicki Pitkanen Tickets Committee Report Seating: A seating chart was obtained from Jerry Wipple. The gym was mapped out according to classes. The seating chart is incorrect and must be revised; however, it is relatively simple to do. We obtained the class enrollment from the Registrar's offioe, then aooordingly apportioned the tiokets so as to give everyone at least one and some two. We allowed 207 tickets for faoulty, trustees and alumni; however, it might have been wiser to allow 250. There are a total of 1507 usable seats in the gym, but we ordered 1642 because the seats are so far apart. Ordering: The tickets were ordered from Johnson and Siewert on Ferry street. The tickets were printed in four days. Note--the prioe is about thirty dollars unless the tioket design is drawn on a oard exactly the size of the ticket; and must be done in India ink. The deadline for tiokets was February 15, four weeks before glee so that the alumni tickets could be mailed out. Distribution: We gave all the alumni, faculty, and trustee tickets to Mr. wipple to distribute. Tickets for stUdents were distributed Monday, March 4, in Baton Hall. From the Registrar's office we obtained the enrollmen by classes and crossed off names as each student picked up his tioket. It might be better in the future to pass out all tickets at glee practices sinoe many didn't get tickets who wanted them.
