No similar conference has been held here for some\ntime, if ever. The delegation from Oregon is\na fairly large one, and includes two distinguished men, the president of the college\nand a member of the faculty, professor of\npolitical science.\nThe topics of the conference are some\nof the most interesting and most discussed\nof present day questions in Canada \u00E2\u0080\u0094 the\neffect of the war upon Canada, conditions in\nthe United States, and the relations between\nthe two countries. The R\u00C2\u00ABfd College delegation has asked that Canadian members of\nthe Conference present their views on Canada and the war, and has offered to discuss\nany American problems that Canadians\nwould be interested in hearing about.\nOn these days of rumours, opinions\nbased on hearsay, and conflicting reports,\nstudents should take advantage of this opportunity of hearing many of the important\ntopics of the day discussed by intelligent\nspeakers under the direction of well-informed and thinking men.\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2F\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 Pearl Castings\n. . . by Lister Sinclair\nThe difficulties of writing a play are\nnot appreciated by the general public. When\none goes to the theatre to see a play, lt does\nnot usually occur to one that somebody has\nhad to write the wretched thing (Note to\nbudding authors: never start off sentences\nwith \"one\" in them; you are left grasping\nthe well-known burlap in less than no time.)\nOrdinary plays contain a number of\ncharacters. No one knows the struggle it\nis to get the right number of characters in\na play. Either you can think of no reason\nfor having more than one person, and have\nto drag in the rest of the people to fill up\nthe program without contributing to the\nproceedings in any essential way, or else the\nutmost pruning of which you are capable\nleaves a cast of ninety.\nAnother difficult thing is the question\nof scenes. Absurd modern prejudices demand that the scene be not changed more\nthan 20 or 30 times an hour. Our friend\nShakespeare (that is probably one of the \u00E2\u0080\u00A2\u00E2\u0096\u00A0\nwrong ways of spelling it) got over this by\ndispensing with scenery altogether, merely\nshooting a citizen with a placard onto the\nstage before each scene. The result is that\nnowadays you have to anchor down the\nbally play to a certain extent. This, I assure\nyou, entails tho sweating of buckets of\nbuckets of blood.\nJUVENALIA\nI am 1':.-mi tided of the app; 11 litis; difficulties involved in play writing by-the discovery of one of my juvenalia in a drawer.\nJuvenalia means ''works of one's youth\";\nit i.s not \"ood usuag'e to say \"Look at that\nJo yoiny around without his juvenalia.\"\nTo recur with distressing frequency to\nthe point in hand, I discovered, as I say, this\nloathsome document, which purported to be\na dramatization of an O. Henry story. It\nwas partially nibbled by mice \u00E2\u0080\u0094 not even\nthey could finish it.\nI mused on it for a while; that getting\nuncomfortable, I got up and moved to another chair.\nHow well I remember plugging away at\nthat confounded thing. In between speeches,\nI used to sketch out designs for a Sinclair\nMemorial Theatre. Sic transit gloria Saturday to Monday. At the end of it I read\nover the Master Work, and swooned away.\nIt had no story. I don't mean it had\nvery little story. It had NO story. The\nplan, so ingeniously devised, and so assiduously pursued to its bitter conclusion had\nfailed utterly. I had discovered (so I\nthought) a new method of literary adaptation, and one which I had hoped with pride\nwould revolutionize literature. I had carefully copied down every bit of dialogue as\nit occurred, omitting nothing and adding\nnothing. The result, as I have indicated,\n\u00E2\u0096\u00A0was unsuccessful, to say the least of it.\nA somewhat superficial analysis of the\noriginal story showed that the scene changed\nfrequently and radically as the story progressed and that all the dramatic action lay\nin narrative. I had also omitted to take\ncognizance of the fact that the crux of the\nplot hinged on the destruction of the city\nby earthquake, a stage affect of which the\naverage producer fights shy.\nI therefore regard with the utmost admiration those geniuses who have succeeded\nin churning out a play. I quite appreciate\nShapespeare's angle in pinching all his plots\nfrom other people. I understand perfectly\nthat it is impossible both to devise the plot\nand write the play.\nREVENGE\nHowever, \"the attitude of the public can\nbe excused for the thing that makes the\nentertainment to a very great extent is the\nacting. We now come to the point of lliis\ntrifle, which is lo remonstrate (somewhat\nbelatedly) with \"J. G.\" for the cxlrnorciin-\nai-y attitude which he took up toward Ihe\nLunts.\nThe Lunts are reputed to be two of the\nvery finest actors in the world; but that this\nreputation does not merely rest upon their\npast achievements was clearly shown when\nthey came to Vancouver with \"There Shall\nBe No Night.\" Instead of seeing in that\nperformance some of the best acting that\nthis city has ever seen or ever could see,\n\"J. G.\" quibbled childishly over minor political details.\nI admit that the play itself was not quite\nas good as it should have been, but it was\na very good play, even if Mr. Sherwood's\nattitude toward the Finnish War does not\ncoincide with \"J. G.'s.\"\n\"J. G.\" should remember Dr. Sedge-\nwick's maxim about \"going into the theatre\nlike an innocent child.\" I am afraid that\nis a misquotation, and that I am \"spoiling\nDr. Sedgewick's beautiful cadences,\" but\nthe idea is there.\nie\nCouncil\nBy JACK MARGESON\nTh* moat Important item of\nbusiness at the Council meeting Monday night wa* the recommendation to the Stadium and\nOymnaalum Committee that thc\nStudent Council be allowed to\nmake what uae of the Stadium\nfi-eld it consider* best. It was folt\nthat inasmuch a* the students\nwere the ones who had organized\nthe campaign that secured the\nbuilding of the stadium, students\nshould have some measure of control over the us. of the field. The\nStadium and Oyinn^sluir Committee consists of two student representatives and a majority of faculty representatives.\nThere is a hint that if the request ls refused, Council will go\nfarther. Council, lt was agreed,\nhad co-operated with the CO.T.C.\nto the best of its abiU'y during\nthe year; but there were occasions\nas several member* ->ald, when the\nStadium was needed for impoiinnt\ngames and the C.O.T.C. could use\nany of the other fields around tho\ncampus just as \.oslly.

The 'Birds went\ninto the final quarter with a fairly comfortable 38\u00E2\u0080\u009431 lead,\nbut the bruising hotelmen started their rushing, pushing,\nshooting-from-every-angle tactics, caught the students and\npassed them when Arnle Bumstead banged in a rebound to\nmake it 48\u00E2\u0080\u009444.\nThen the over-enthusiastic Angels proceeded to throw\naway their own game, as Bumstead and McLachlan fouled\nblond \"Lefty\" and Art swished his gift shots through the\nhoop as if he and his mates were practising Instead ox playing for keeps. Wally Johnston sewed the thing up tight\nwith his free throw (and only shot of the night) after Bumstead lost his head, and tackled him as If the game were Canadian football.\nThe game left the large crowd gasping and set the stage\nfor a bang-up series. Saturday night at V.A.C. the Angelus\nboys are confident they will square the count at one game\napiece when they entertain the students at 9:00 p.m.\nStudents Stari Shakily\nColey Hall's men displayed their greater experience in\nthe first quarter as lithe Billy McLachlan led them to a\n13\u00E2\u0080\u00948 lead at the breather. Varsity's ball-handling and shooting were bad in this period, the boys apparently being nervous. However, they were confronted with the \"unconscious\" shooting of McLachlan, who got ten points and Just\ncouldn't miss from anywhere.\nJim Scott got into high gear in the second, being especially good on nee throws. The tall scienceman sank seven\nof hla high loopers from the foul line without a miss. The\ncrowd came to their feet when the 'Birds caught the Angels\nfour mlnutea from half-time as Jack Ryan's floor-length dash\nbrought the score to 18\u00E2\u0080\u0094all.\nThe third period was the student's best session and the\none which proved Varsity's life-saver. In this quarter they\noutscored the hotelmen 17 to 8, Barton and Scott doing most\nof the potting.\nSecond Clash Saturday\nPat Flynn played his usual grand game, being the hardest\nworker on the floor. Jack Ryan stood out, too, scoring seven\npoints from his guard position.\nAfter the way the students pulled the game out of the\nfire Wednesday, the experts are picking them to take the\naeries. They'll have a tough Job getting by Angelus Saturday,\nbut we're going to climb on the bandwagon with all the other\nSports editors who are flocking back to their \"Alma Mammy\"\nand pick Varsity to win.\nThen there won't be any trick at all to finishing off the\nseries next Wednesday out here at the campus, will there?\nHow They Scored\nVARSITY: Matheeon, Barton 13, Johnston 1, Scott 21,\nRyan 7, Pedlow, Flynn 6, Hay, Sully\u00E2\u0080\u009448.\nANGELUS: McDonagh 2, McLellan, Marsh, Lee 4, McLachlan 16, Kennlngton 7, Purves 4, Bumstead 12, Stout\u00E2\u0080\u009445.\nPQOR LITTLE JOHNNY! .. .j\u00C2\u00AB, ..-\u00E2\u0080\u009E.,\u00C2\u00AB,\u00E2\u0080\u009E *,.,-.\nafter school!
