" The manner in which each class glee chairman is selected will be left to the discretion of the class, the results of said selection to be reported to the Glee Manager by Friday, February 18. The uniform for Freshman Glee is determined by the theme. Each class will decide upon its own uniform and will be responsible for the financing of it. (Remember th~t uniforms count no more than vmat their ne9.tness and unjformity contribute to the jUdging of the song and formation.) Judging will be on the snme basis as last year: music­20 pts.; words -20 pts.; vocal rendition -40 pta.; and formation -20 pts. In regard to formation, 10 pts. will be awarded for the originality of tho formation itself and for adaptability and execution, 5 pts. each. This year's Glee will bG presented with one basic forma­tion in each class. Minor changes that will not alter size, shape, or theme of the original formation may be used. To eliminate any dissension in regard to what con­stitutes a major or minor change, all formations must be submitted in writing to the Glee Manager on Tuesday, March 8 for approval. The executive committee will be the final authority on what constitutes such chan~es as are desirod. Needless to so..y, GIl formations will be"kept in strictest confidence. The entire formation must participate vocally in the presen­tation of the song. Music and words must be turned in to Dr. Martin's office by 4 p.m., Wed. March 2, 1955. The composition must be written on standard score sheets, in black India ink, with the melody line and piano n.ccompaniment. Only the bnsic compo­sition is required; special arr~ngement of the thome need not be submitted. Four (4) copies of the words and four (4) copies of the music will be necessary; the title of the song will appear on each score; the name of the class r0presonted and the nnme of the person writing the song will ~ppeQr on one copy of the music and one copy of the words. No stage properties will be permitted. Only seniors may use the center steps; all other c12sses will use the side steps. Parodies being only after the seniors enter and are to be sung in sequence; seniors, juniors, sophomores, and frGshmen. A maximum of two (2) parodies will be sung by each class.

Scheduled practices will begin Monday, March 14. The gym will not be available before that date. Optional class practices shall not begin before Wednesday, March 9.

Baker immediately reaffirmed his po­sition presented in a campaign speech last week in which he said Glee was a "one-thousand Ulan job."

Bill Free­man and Jeanene Findley to serve on the Glee executive committee. They will serve as advisors to Baker and his com­mittee. Wheat was Glee man­ager last year.

Worries about studies, females, the future, Red Chma, the great-circle route, the Mau Mau problem, the split in Congress, the weather or the house dance all seem to melt to the tune of one of the lively marching songs.

The time when the trees begin to bud, the legislature begins to take afternoons off, the squirrels start to set ex­amples for the students, the profs find themselves looking into a sea of far-away, rather blank expressions, and all is rosy and green in the world. But in the world of Willa­mette, this tranquility is about to be broken by a mass effort involving almost everyone. For this next week your peace is going to be seriously violated by the ancient tribal rite known as Freshman Glee. WITH THE thought in mind of making this week as easy as possible for the participants, we are offering today the world's first, most complete (probably because it's the on­ly) Freshman Glee kit. This kit is guaranteed to cut the strain of Freshman Glee in half. The first and largest item is a life-size robot, built to look, walk and talk like ·you. This is, of course, to send to the Garly morning practices in your place, while you snooze sound­ly in your warm bed. After Glee is over this robot will doubtlessly have a host of oth­er us~, such as attending class ·for you, talking to the Dean, and so on. For you to send home to your folkS, there is a record of the Robert Shaw Chorale sing­ing your Glee song, with your class accredited on the label. Also in our special kit for monotones is a small, easily­concealed personal record play­er with a recording of William Warfield, Yma Sumac or Rube Menashe singing your part of your class Glee song. All you have to learn is how to move your mouth so it looks like you're doing the singing. FOR THOSE in positions of responsibility, we have a var­ied selection of materials. You can pick out a pre-fab parody with ease from our long list of such numbers as: "Let .me go, let me go, let me go, Willa­mette;" "Don't conk the ivy, mother, it's holding up the wall;" "A grade point is a girl's best friend," and a host of oth­. er snappy songs. To build class spirit, there's nothing quite like ,our refresh­ing drink, "Class-boost." Pass out a small bottle of Class­boost the night of Glee, and the results will be amazing (formerly bottled under the name "W. U. Cough .Syrup.") Forehead tatoos of your class year are another good moral­builder. For marching practice, we have procured a special bar­gain in player piano rolls of the "Blue Danube Waltz" and "The Truck Driver's Schot­tische." Don't wear the poor piano players out with endless practicing, but use one of these excellent marching songs in­stead. . If you hurry in your order by Monday, we have a little safety bonus for you. AbSolute­ly free (with a small handling charge) we will throw in a pair of water wings, mill stream­tested to hold you afloat until the Coast Guard comes. Martin Keeps Top 'Song Secret Only one person now kn~ws what class placed first in Glee word~ and' music, and that's Dr. George B. Martin. Not even the judges know how the score sheets tallied. Next persons to know the all-important score will be the class presidents who help total the com bin e d points from words and music, formation· and presentation in the office just outside the gymnasium. Maximum poi n t s of 40 for words and music, 20 for forma­tion and 40 for rendition de­termine the winner. Each' class president m us t make a heroic struggle to look either complacent or despond­ent when he re-enters the gym, for he can tell no one the de­cision. That's up to Dr. Schulze. Stall Expected From Dr. Schulze When It's Time To Announce the Winner of Freshman Glee By MAlRiY ANN FISCHER . Collegian Reporter After the singing, Shouting and entertainment is over to­ffiOlTOW night at Freshman Gl'ee, every eye in the gym will focus its attention on a mild­appearing gentleman who will rrrount the stage.

They didn't. One girl was given the op­portunity of scrubbing -the steps of the Sigma Chi house with her toothbrush. A mU.!lic student 'gave an impromptu clarinet concert while wearing shorts and standing in a bird­bath. One student wielded a razdr to shave a "w" on a losing male's chest, while someone else,-a gourmet, no doubt---,'. sampled a new dish: fried worms au gratin. RULES FOR PAYMENT of bets are the same: bets must be confined to the campus and paid off by Monday night. They should not conflict with University rules, such as no smoking on campus. Students are reminded to use good judg­ment to prevent the impairing of Willamette's standing in the community. Blue Monday will also bp wash day for the class placing fourth in Glee. This chill plunge into the mill stream is a tradition almost as old as Glee. The climax to Glee, It is eagerly anticipated by mem­bers of the losing class, who console themselves with the thought th~t it's more fun to lose than to win. coveted banner? Wil.l he pro­long the anticipation? These are questions this re­porter was to inquire of the campus "man of the hou-r." After a· brief Chat with Dr. Schulze I find that the outlook is not too bright :Dor a' quick announcement of the winner. As plans are no,w Prof. Schulze will recite the Gettys­burg Address, the Breamble to the Constitution, read excerpts from "Can YQIU Top This" and sing a chorus or two of "Time on My Hands." Immediately following this brief prelimin­ary program he plans to go into >the important announce­ment of who ",ron the world series and then ... WHO WON GLEE. NOW THIS matter of delay­ingtheall- imp0rtant an­nouncement is quite a crucial problem since we lose more students during that time than we do even on Blue Mond:!y. And there are some tired out Glee singers who fall asleep during this '!tuB) and never wake up until they hit the cold waters of the MiH stream (they never even have a chance). But the task of awarding the ­Glee banner is a very danger­ous one itself. Dr. Schulze will have to 'look out at the har-' ried, frenzied half-'Orazed Glee participants who are just wait­ing to' break into bedlrum and i rush on the stage where he is . and tear ,wildly iior a piece of ' the Ibanner. Ali he has to do to bring on this invasion' is to, na,me the winner of Glee. ! I'can see why anyone would stall just as long as he could. However, this is Dr. Sclhulze's third yeax of awarding the ban­ner so evidently he's capable of outrunning ,the victor each I year. . .'' FOUR FRESHMEN· l<>vehes, were na<q.Led to !hold the Glee banner during the announce­ment. They are Marie De­F r e e s e, Darleri'e Snodgrass, Anne Meeker and Dena Lam­propu<!. ous. The four husky hon­or ,guards are Ji,m Cain, Jim Person, Darr J 0 h n son and Kaye Brand. I sug·gested to Dr. Schulze that the very minute tJhat the judges have finished tabulating their scores that he run madly on the stage and with no pre-, liminaries announce that the Glee winner is____________________ (l had freshmen inserted here but I'll bet the editor cut it out­he's a senior you know.) Howev e r, Pr~f. Schulze holds that it is traditional to keep the audience in suspense for a short time (sayan hour or two). So bring your nerve pills and wait patiently after the singing is over for the im­po r tan t presentation of the banner-remember the longer Dr: Schulze delays t,he longer your feet will be dry.

Sour Notes May Mean 'Water Music' Glee's History Shows Two Perfect Records; Frosh Covld Match Classes of '36 and '54 By BABS JACKSON Assistant News Editor In 47 years of Glee, only two ~ classes have perfect re­cords. There is only one class on campus now who can parallel the perfect scores of the classes of 1954 and 1936. Th~s is the trosh class. Take heart, members of '58. for the class 011 1954 overcame the same odds you face, on the same novelty theme. Up at 5 a.m. the "humble" members of '54 marched in the snow to perfect their formation and song, "Campus Capers." BREAKING records, mak­ing novel bets and braving all sorts of weather for practices are part of the Glee heritage which will begin anew next week in preparation for the 47 annual Glee. Freshman Glee is one of Wil­lamette's oldest and best-loved traditions. Back in 1908 two freshmen students, Brick Har­rison and Jimmy Oakes, laid the plans for the annual event. WALLER HALL was the place for the first "College Glee," tls they called it that year. Each class wrote origi­nal ·words and music for a novelty, serenade, alma mater or fight theme, and judging in 1908 was almost the same as it is today. The class of 1912, freshman originators of the event, won the first Glee. After three years in Waller Hall, presentation of Glee took .place in the Methodist Church. It was here that the senior' .class first marched in robed in caps and gowns, a tradition which has lasted to today. In 1912 the Glee site was moved. to the Salem Armory, and ini 1923, for the first time, Fresh­man Glee was held in the new­ly- constructed gymnasium. BLUE MONDAY was added many years after Glee began. At first, a chapel was held Monday, when e a c h class would re-sing their song and the losing class would sing a parody. Soon second and third place classes also were singing parodies. Finally, the unusual bets which were being placed outside chapel were incorpora­ted into a Blue Monday chapel. Swimming the millstream by the losing class also was a re­cent innovation. No parodies were sung be­fore class presentations, as they are today, when Freshman Glee was new. In those years Glee participants took out their Willamette song books and sang old Glee songs in hon-· or of alumnae.

However, the main purpose of this axticle is to warn against the aft e r eMects of Glee namely Blue Monday. (RULE No.1) Don't make any dangerous Glee bets. Last year, having the same complete confidence in my class that I diO this year, I made many bets. One was a :bit rash. I didn't mind! walking around with ,green hair when other students had blrueand red! !hair, but when after two months passed and my ha'ir was still bilgy green, I 'began to worry. I was a bit conspicuous to say the least. But, after four and a half \ m~nths my hair grew to its origina~ color and I came to the conclUSIOn that I must have natural' green highlights in my ;brown thatchy hair! (RULE No.2) Grades can fall. I went from a 3.0 to a 1.0 in a six weeks' period. Take heed! However, this year I have thorough confidence that the class of '57 will win Glee and am prepared once again to'take on any and all bets (even green' hair). at 8 p.m. and some 490 students in freshman, sophomore, junior and se:lior c~sses will ta.;e part. • None of the present participating classes has won previously. The senior class of 1954, won the can· test lour times in a row. The unique songfest, which pre­sents original words and music by all four clas,es, has as its theme' this year, "Novelty." The event began in 1908. Managers Honored • For the first time, former Fresh­man Glee maragers will be hon­ored tonight. This year's manager, Mac Baker, Salem. will introduce Dwight Finlay, Medford, manager in 1922; Harold Tomlinson, Salem, 1927. C. L.

An open "bout" of parodies will be followed tonight by the senior class, marching in formation and singing "Live and Learn," with music by Keith Mirick, lyrics by Judy Fullager. The junior class will follow with "Dear Folks," with words by Mari­lyn Parker, Dale Gustafson, Bill Bjorkman and Ron Hershberger, and music by Paul Ackerman and Hershberger. "Facin' Jason" will be the pres­entation by the sophomores. Music' is by Marty Wolf and Tricia Gar· don, lyrics by Sue Pratt, Flossy Hedge and Tom Loree. Challengers will be the freshman: class with its rendition of "Jason. Daddy," having words by Carolyn Reynolds and Connie Clark, and music by David Louthan. The class winning first prize will be presented with a cardinal and gold banner, but the class which comes in last will wade, minus its ladies through the Mill Stream, bordering the south portion of the campus, following Monday's 11 a.m. chapel hour. And each class, member must ,,:ear his shoes. . Says Czech-iboTn Dr. Andie after his first 'Freshmat1: Glee and Blue Mon~: "One ad­mires the ability to 'be happy and to laugh." He ad<red, "I appreciate that in this crazy world there are some people sane enough to be able to laugh at themselves." In speaking Glee night, fresh­man class president Wayne Carr contended that the Uni­versity has received among pth~r things much "notoriety" from the song C'O'IIlipetition. Sear chi n g in Barnhardt's American Col:1ege Dictionary we find that adiieetive usage O'f the word refers to such dI1J;biaus qualities as those of "a notori­ous gambler." President Carr II must know sometihing about!1 Willamette that we don't. The freshman song would not win any prizes for histori­cal accuracy. One alumnus commented that Oregon his­tory shauld be a required course for ·freshmen since Ja­son Lee did! not spend any of his time scrapping with Red­men. A sophomore Parodi pOillted out Los Angeles has IlQ pt;iority on hazy atmosplhere. At Will­amette we have "log smog."

Respectfully subm'tted, Secretary, Facin' Jason -Glee song of the sophomore class (Class of '57, 1955) Looking down from above At the school (?) that he loved Jason Lee saw the school he had known. He seemed as he gazed so completely amazed At the way that Willamette had grown. He was truly astounded at the school he had founded: So many more buildings than people. His joy reached its peak and he let out a shriek The new buildings even had steeples. (Spoken) But much to his dismay He heard some students say Everything here is prohibited Sometimes I feel so inhibited. We are under Willamette's wing. Jason was a God-fearing man But no stuffed shirt was he Religion and the joy of life Go hand in hand said he. Now Jason he was quite upset About this needless fuss He helped us see things as we should Here is his advice to us. What's right and fun Can act as one, Let us face reality. So if you're wise then you can rise to the height of morality. God gave us life. Enjoy it now No matter what you do Just keep in mind that all the time Brother Jason is watching you. Jason Daddy -Glee Song of the freshman class (Class of '58,1955) In the year of eighteen hundred forty-two When the West was wild and new Dear jason with a wagon train journeyed o'er a lonely plain. When they got down in a valley wide and low jason's cart began to slow. Our hero found a sheltered site Where they planned to spend the night. They all joined in the singing, Around a little fire. They thanked the Lord for guiding them. They sounded like a choir. A-men. And they were interrupted, For on a yonder hill An injun stood in war paint. He wasn't standing still. Ah-ah. Rock that oxcart, jason Daddy. Make those crazy cows moooove. Rock that oxcart, jason Daddy. Get them in the groove. jason fought those crazy redmen, Destroyed their plans. And because of jason's gallantry Willamette U. now stands. This is a only a partial "translation" of a longer song. And, in these more sensitive times, it sounds distinctly racist. (!)
