"None of us ever,looks for-Freshman Glee, 1957, will be graced by the presence of shiny new risers. This was the decision of Stu­dent Council in Wednesday's meet­ing. 'It was also the decision of Council to move the date of Glee forward a week, from March 23 to March 16, and it was pointed out that this might cause a little diffi­culty in delivering the risers on time. In spite of this, it was the con­sensus of Council that the risers should be purchased and it was generally felt that enough time was being allowed for their delivery on time. The reason for the change in the date of Glee is that Prof. Don Gleckler of the music school re­quest~ that the song fest be moved to some time when it did not con­flict with choir tour. He pointed ouf'that many of his singers had, no voice left after the rugged week of Glee. - I . Remain Same Freshman Glee rules will remain substantially the same John Berg­strom, Glee manager, reported to Student Council Wednesday. For­mation plans will be dueS' p.m" March 11 and will be turned in to Bergstrom while words and music will be required Monday, Febru­ary 25. The) will be left with Jerry Whipple. Words and music will have to be in to the judges a week earlier this year than they have been previously in order to give the judges three we~ks to score their copies and re­turn them, March 15 has been set for the deadline for preliminary lists of participants and final lists will be due the 19th. Practice may begin March 18. Passing from Glee to the Oregon Federation of, Student Leaders con­ference scheduled for February 8 and 9, Don Peterson outlined the tentative schedule. ;Willamette rep­resentatives to the Conference have not as yet been chosen, he reported. Next the question of why no petitions have been submitted for the position of assistant Concert Series manager came up for discus­sion. St\.ldent Body president Neil Causbie painted out that any stu­dent is elegible for the position, Petitions for the post will again be accepted, noon Tuesday, February 5, being the deadline. In other business Council con­sidered the problem of falling re­ceipts in the Cat Cavern but came up with no positive solution. One proposal considered was to put a juke box in the Cavern to attract customers sin c e students cannot smoke there. dent 'Council Wednesday discussed the faculty action in abolishing dead week before major social events. A letter from Dr. Martha Springer, chairman of the educational policies committee of the faculty, was read outlining faculty reasoning in drop­ping this rule. WHILE MOST of the represen­tatives were willing to drop the dead week before Parents Weekend and May Weekend, they protested abandOning it before Glee. A mo­tion to go on record as opposing dropping of dead week for this event was proposed and carried by a substantial majority. In other action, Council decided the method of choosing Model United Nations delegates and elect­ed a selecting committee which will determine who will go as dele­gates. Anyone interested in being a delegate to the Model U.N. may pick up a petition in the Student Body office Monday, THIS PETITION will be turned in at a date to be decided later to the seleCting committee. Elected to this committee, consisting of three faculty and two student members, were Dean Robert Gregg, Prof. Richard Gillis, Dr. Theodore Shay, Doug Houspr, and LouAnn Mergler. Student Body president Neil Causbie announced the members of the Freshman Glee advisory coun­cil have been appointed. Serving on the committee will be the Glee manager John Bergstrom, Bud Mull, Peggy Buckley, Nancy Groth, and Royal Keith. . , 'i ~". ! t'" ,:,l. ;c.'as$es March, Sing_~leefullyTOlpig~f ~Old Glee Be~s ~ively Stunts ~k .... '; -/' ; , With members of every class inore confident every day that their class will win, more and more Glee bets are being made, at the rate of about two per student or over 2000 bets. Many amusing spectacles may greet the eyes of any visitor on campus next Monday, but mem­bers of the student body will have t<J think hard to outdo some of the stunts carried out bv students in tlw past. ­What present student has enougl> confidence in his class to promise to swallow a live goldfish if it loses? It's heen done. Everything from publicly proposing to a fa­vorite professor to wearing a sarong to a tarring and feathering have been the prices of misplaced l::onfidence. One student body presi­dent had to stand on a pedestal wearing a toga in front of Waller Hall and pretend to be a statue for many long hours. Other students have carried out less lengthy, but no less conspicuous, stunts snch as cutting off professors' ties, playing the bugle in chss. taking raft trips down the mill stream or dyeing their hair green. Next Monda\' will tell the tale, and if it foll~ws the pattern of Blue Mondays of the past, there will be stunts and strange sights abound­ing to the amusement of the win­ners but to the horror of the losers. , --_. s Presidents Issue' Final Challe4ge Note: Feeling that all oUId be well represented, The Collegian asked the presi­dents of the four classes to issue .,,/ one last statement of opinion before tomorrow night's Glee competition.

The Junior class is looking for­ward to Freshman Glee with a great deal of enthusiasm this year. Sev­eral articles have recently appeared in Salem newspapers predicting that our class, tlle class of 1958, would again conf forth in its _winning form. We certainly appreciate the support the Salem Citizens have r· Ber~rom to Post Lists Soon lor Glee Workers .. .. : Newly' elected FresImlan Glee manager John Bergstrom began work early by explaining to a freshman class meeting; the func­tions of the various Glee commit­tees. Committee' sign up sheets will be posted in all liVing organizations. Chairmen of the several commit­tees will be chosen from these lists Bergstrom said; thus giving some­one with a particular interest in . one part of.-Glee~ a chance to work in a responsible.. position in that shown us; furthermore, we have been working extremely hard to fulfill.their highest expectations. L 0 0 kin g over the competing classes, we find that we have facing us last year's third and fourth place winners and the freshmen who are having some .organizational diffi­culties. We are anxiously awaiting the results of Saturday evening's performance. It is our hope that this years Glee will continue to be a spectacle worthy of the interest it has created in the past. It is up to you freshmen, sophomores, and seniors to provi& us with compe­tition. . The class of 1959 has arisen. The fate of the other classes is un­deniable. The sophomore cla;s is going to win Glee. We have sympathetically listened to the boastings and trite egotistical smugness of the perverted petal pluckers for "two" many years. Their spirit wilted with the rose which they still cling to this year. \Ve have observed the wide­eyed, damp-diapered younger set as they gaze naively at the excel­lence of the class which precedes them. Our feelings are only of pity when we think of these wet-behind­the- ears urchins. Wi~ tongue in cheek, we have abstaiiled from laughing openly at the clumsy· efforts of the balding summer squash set. This.'ttcguaticly­.... . minded class deserves to be ·com­mended for its vain but valiant efforts of the past. W~ smile at smugness, we laugh at naivety, and we only have pity for the well-washed seniors. The result of this year's Glee is in­evitable. I believe I can speak for the Freshman class as a whole when I say we are all looking forward to Glee. You see, we all anticipate a victory for the Class of '60! We accept the fact that there will be competition. One class has won for the last two years; others are supposedly strong. We've got a great song and a good formation, but mainly we want to win! I know that this spirit will carry through the final night, and emerge in a great victory for the Freshman ~ass in Freshman Glee, 195;'. area. . «:;nt. e ..n . . .' ,.;~all IUld ~.or or Missing Rhymes and Bets-~ ,provide Glee Complica£fl,ns ._,:~ ,By C~ROL McMINIMEE : ',\VITH nilS yeais ~heme: Alma .

AS DR. PURVINE checks the mill stream for possibilities of con­ 49th Glee Shows ExpansJ9n" By WYATT KERSH In the fall of 1908 two fresh­men, unknown to each other, were seated together in chapel. During the hymns each noted that th~ other sang with a particularly fine voice and when the service was over they struck up a friendship that was to have far reaching ef­fects.. BoJA .of them had an active interest in music and they formed a small vocal group among the freshmen men. AS THEY harmonized walking home from their first meeting, the idea of challenging the other classes to a singing contest crept into their heads. At one chapel, soon after, the president of the Freshman class extended the chal­lenge that became a vital part of Willamette's history. The upperclassmen we r e, of course, appalled-but ~what could they do? Freshmen could not be allowed to show this sort of impert­inence, there was a lesson to be taught, and the challenge was ac­cepted. ON 'FEBRUARY 19, 1909, in the eternal and venerable Waller' Hall the first Freshman Glee was pre­sented. The mles then were practically as they stand now. The words and. music were to be original and the manner of presentation was also to weigh in the judges' decision. THE ORDER was thus: The senior song had words by a stu­dent and music by the Italian com­poser Donizetti. History records that their presentation was able, though their understanding of the rules was confused and when they returned to their seats the usher presented them with a large head of cabbage. The juniors were next and their original song was humorous in con­tent and presentation-even with masquerade costumes. The usher presented them with three carrots. WE ARE TOLD that the pro­gram .was' here broken, and that "Clark Belknap, who won the State Oratorical Contest at Corvallis, gave a reading entitled 'Morning ~ail'." The sophomores received a bunch of onions on the completion of t}y,ir song. _ Finally the freshmen presented theirs, with the members of the original singing group forming the nucleus. AS A CLIMAX to the program "Miss Nellie Casbere delighted the audience with a reading 'The Day of Precious Penalties'." Or'course the freshmen won. And after the "College Glee" a recep­tion was given in the halls of the Websterian S"ociety by the ircsh­men and "college songs were sung, punch was served, and a general good time was enjoyed by all." THE DAILY Oregon Statesman records, for February 20, 1909: "In the first annual glee contest held at Willamette University the Freshmen won the glee pennant, which was given by the Freshmen to the class which the judges de­dded had the best college song. The songs were all good and typi­cal of college life, and filled with humor, and love and loyalty for Old Willamette. The Freshmen had a good song and deserved to win, yet the other classes had excellent compositions and made the race a warm one." And so the first glee was under way. Class rivalry existed then, as now. Side bets appeared and with the wild spirits of t$dergraduates, the bets bec'\me zanier and zanier. Goldfish swallowing, serving as a valet, perching in a tree and all the other foolish and funnv bets became an important part of glee. BLUE MONDAY-the day of the paying of bets-is nO\'1 an integral part of the Glee traditions and we, the students, look forward to it as the icing on the cake. Tomorrow night marks the 49th in this series and, I presume, it will be as successful as its 48 predecessors. Perhaps Mr. Clark Belknap won't be present to give • "Morning Mail" and Miss Nellie Casbere will not have an oppor­tunity to delight us with "The Day of Precious Penalties" but the tradition of musical creation will continue itself in the spirit from' which it came. THE WORDS of the winning song will ring in our ears as it did in the ears of the freshmen of 1909. Theirs were: !, "New Willamette, New Willam­ette, hail, hail, hail. Ever '\vel} be true to thee, hail, hail, haill" The winning words tomorrow night will be: ". .?" class president Jack Jones, warmly dressed against the chill air, dem~trates Olsen the correct technique for diving into the millstream-just in case. ~.

Barbara Pfaff, publicity chairman for Glee, announced that Freshman Glee will be publiCized on many Portland radio and television shows. On March 5 the University Singers will appear on Connie Worth's "Telerama" show singing last year's winning Freshman Glee song, "Rose Magic." The hostess will also inter­view John Bergstrom, Freshman Gle~ manager on the show which is being broadcast over KGW radio and KGW television channel 8. Studio West, KLOR television channel 12, will feature the 16­man chorus from the Willamette chapter of Beta Theta Pi singing the Winning Freshman Glee song of 1955, "Jason Daddy," March 7. Ann Fields, assistant ba~kdrop chaUnuan, reports that the backdrop is deSigned, the materials for it are purchased, and the committee is ready to start building it. The "Welcome Alums" banners and the arm bands will be new and ~fferent this year, reports Sue Palmer, decoration chairman; gay and colorful, the decorations will add a lot to the spirit of Freshman Glee. Willalnette U. musical event calls for pre-dawn 'workouts This coming Saturday is "Willamette Glee" day again. . That might not mean very much to the initiate, but to any Willamette university alumnus it's "the" traditional event of the year on the Salem school's campus. It's a musical affair unique at Willamette. Each class writes original words and music for a new song, then stages and presents it. Next Saturday, March 16, will see this year's renditions. ·Nearly all practice ses­sions are early-morning affairs. Another unusual thing about the "Glee"-it's or­ganized by the freshman class, which serves as host for the other three classes.

Ex:ecutive Board January 8, 1957 '!he meeting was called to order by JohDI.lY Bergstro:zy., Glee Mansge:;-, 'Who reported that the progress of Glee so far consists of the selection of .chairmen and their committees and the formulation of many ideas. Johnny said that he 1-Tould neea cY.,ot of help fz:oom this gro.up. '!he first item of business was to revise the 1956 Glee rules. The outcome of this revision was sent to Student Council for approval. The following list of judges vTas then tentatively agreed upon by the conunittee pending the adVice of an informed professor. Nancy Groth will check these names: nmsic -T. S. Roberts, C. Robert Zirmnerman, Professor Brye; Hords -Professor Clark, .Al Loucks, Walt Erickson; presentation -Virginia Ward Elliott, John Evans, Dean Kratt. Johnny then informed the board that there were possibilities of obtaining p'lblicity time on T. V. It vTaS suggested that the University Singers represent the school. Since it is not convenient for the comnittee to meet on 'lhursday as planned, no future meeting date 1'-TaS established. There will, however, be a meeting every week. Because there was no further business, the meeting 'Has adjOl.:trned. P",'111 BerCali Secretary Executive Board January 15, 1957 The meeting was called to order. Johrmy said that the Student Council had made some minor changes in some of the rules that we had approved at the last meeting. The revised rules were read:a.nd again approved. We discussed the question of 'Whether to deduct points from the classes if they did not meet the necessary deadlines. It was suggest­ed that they be docked 10% of the total points in the category in "Which the deadline was not met~ but no action was taken. The meeting Has adjourned. Ann Bercaw Secretary , / Executive Board January 22, 1957 Johnny called the meeting to order and said that a problem had present­ed itself concerning the date of Glee. As the choir is going on tour the end of March, its members will not be able to participate in both the tour and Glee if Glee is held on the 23 as planned. The alternative date would be Harch 16. During the following discussion it 'tV'as pointed out that some group vd11 have to sui'fer no matter on 1,ffiat date Glee is held. It was agreed to base the decision on the scheduling of the midterm tests. If they begin on the 25, we will suggest to Student Council that Glee be held on the 16. If, however, they begin on the 11, it is our sUE:.gestion to hold Glee the 23. Because the recordings of Glee have not ~en too good in the past, Johnny presented the suggestion of making the recording before the actual performance. Station KOCO has offered to make the recording on the Friday before Glee if the students will run through it for them. It was the con­census of feeling, however, that the record should represent the actual performance and should be made Glee night. Johnny announced that the next meeting 'WOuld be held the first week after the semester break, c-nd the meeting was adjourned. An.11 Bercaw' Secretary Executive Board February " 19,7 Jolmny called the meeting to order and said that its purpose was to set up a penalization code for the classes tihich would be presented to Student Council. 'lhe following code was devised: 1. ,% of the total points for either words or music iull be de­deducted if either of the above mentioned are turned in late; if the formation in its entirety is not submitted on time, 5% of its total points will be deducted. 2. Penalty will be inflicted if the lists of participating class members are not subrnitted on time. 'IDe number of points wi...ll be determined by the Executive Glee Comrr~ttee. 3. The formation must te submitted in its entirety and followed. 4. From, to 2,% of the total points will be deducted if extra practices, as defined in the Glee rules, are held. The purpose of the next meeting will be to discuss the ticket rules and to set up a practice schedule. '!he meeting was adjourned• .Ann Bercaw Secretary / Executive Board February 13, 1957 'lhe meeting 'Was called to order, and the question of who the recipi~t of this year's Glee dedication should be was discussed at great length. As the only suggestion that came forth was Waller Hall, the members of the board were asked to look into the subject more thoroughly before a decision was made. The Glee practice schedule was set up after which the meeting was adjourned. Ann Bercaw Secretary Sunday.

Last yearrs ticket rules were read and, after much discussion, the accoITq?anying rules set up. Again the subject of a lJOrthy individual to whom Glee could be ded­icated was discussed. The names of both President Smith and T. S. Roberts loTere suggested. It was decided that the 1957 Glee should be dedicated to G. Herbert Smith for his 15' years of service as president of v1.illamette University. 'lhere being no further business, the meetiq; was adjourned• .4nn BercaH Secretary Executive Board February 26, 1957 After the meeting was call'ed to order, Johnny presented three ideas for possible Glee program covers. '!he board deci.ded that either of tID would be fine.

Johnny suggested that a Golden Anniversary rook of Glee songs be made up for sale next year. 'ilie conmrittee agreed that it lfas a good idea and a terrific money maker. Don Gordon said that he had lined up t1fO acts so far for entertainment, Tom and Barbara Larsen signing, and Tom Gail's comedy act. He asked for ideas for a third act. 'iliA following sug[~estions were givEm: another comedy act, a professor leading the alUIi'ni in a song, professors singing themselves; and the Romeo and Juliet act that was given for Varsity Varieties. 'ilie meeting "Tas then adjourned. Ann Bercaw \ Secretary \ i Executive Board March 5, 1957 .,J ~ Johnny called the meeting to order. Since there were some complaints as to the scheduling of Glee practices, a slight revision was made. A13 the Seniors had three early morning practices, and the Juniors only one, the two classes sw.i.tched practice times for one meeting. George Hoyt, Junior Class formation leader, asked that We approve his request to change a Hard in their song from "threads" to "hands". There is nothing in the rules about changing words after the deadlines. Since the Executi.ve fuard is the final authority, it was our decision that the change would violate the thought of the rules as there was a deadline for them although there was no specific words to that effect. Consequently, the change cou~d not be made without incurring a penalty. '!he follO't-Ting three stz.tements i-Tere dra"m up as a result of this decision: 1. All words and music vrere to be turned in February 25 for final judging. 2. '!his I·lould be a major change in effect on the words and the formation (see rules). 3. This rule sets a precedent for other changes that other classes might wish to ma.'I(e. The dedication to G. Herbert 8.mith was discussed and the final wording formulated to read: We, the Class of 1960, dedicate the 49th Annual Freshman Glee to Dr. G. Herbert Smith for his faithful fifteen years of ,',' { /,f leadership· and semce to Wil1amette University. • Representatives from each of the four classes submitted their for­,. mations for final approval. The Seniors ,vil1 present a white graduation diploma, bound by a red ribbon on a black background. No Change in for­mation will take place during the singing of the song. 'lhe Junior fS ff fOl~ation will be a clock, and their request to use football jerseys numbered 3, 6, 9, and 12 to designate time on the clock was granted. The Sophomore's formation of a red cross and a "White dome on a black background was approved. A wite background 'lrrl.th a black lamp base and red fla-ne was O.K • .'d for the Freshmen. 'llie students in the name can sway, but not move their feet, as taking a step constitutes a change in relative position. Another change in the practice ::chedule was suggested, but not entirely worked out. 'lhe final solution was left up to Volney Sigw.und and George Hoyt, subject to approval by Johrmy. 'llie meeting was adjourned. An.11 Bercaw Secretary ·! :~ Elcecutive Board Harch 14, 1957 '!he meeting was called to order by Johnny. The publicity cormnittee was granted permission to bp.y 12 tapes at a discount to sem to 12 major stations in Oregon. The cost vdll be $26. l1arty Wolf said that the senior song had 11 !llistakes in the music and asked permission to correct them and have the music rejudged. The board decided that since a deadline had been set, it must be kept. Therefore, no change was permitted in the judging. The senior class 't.,ras allO'tred, ho..vever, to correct the pia.'>lo accon~animent for the performance that night. '!he subject of the Junior's request to change a word in their song from lfthreads IT to IThands" "vas re-opened as their representative, Nancy Grothe, had been absent at the previous discussion. 'lhe arguement pre­sented ,..as that since 11 music changes had teen allowed in the Senior's song, the Juniors felt that they should be able to change one word. '!he decision was based on rule 7 against the Junior's change, and, if they persist in making the change, they will be penalized 5% of the 360 toial points. In accordance with this rule, the Seniors agreed not to change their nmsic. They, too, -rdll be docked 5% of the total 360 points if the melody line in their piano accompaniment is changed.

In relationship to the improvement of the rules for the 1958 Glee, Marty 1'101£ made the following suggestions concerning the judging: 1.
