SOPHOMORE CLASS HOUR NEXT WEDNESDAY Plans for the coining class hour were completed by the committee in charge and brought before the Sophomore class this afternoon. I hey were adopted with few changes. Assembly hour next Wednesday is the time set. \t that time the sophomore class will entertain the student laxly with songs, speeches, and other num bers by representative members. It is not probable that the entire hour will be occupied by the Sophomore class and the latter part of the hour may be turned into a rally of the student body to arouse enthusiasm over the coming game between the football teams of the Oregon University and the O. A. C. Songs will be sufig by the students, selections will be given by the Glee club and speeches by a number of the promi nent members of the student body will be given, while a whole-souled rehearsal ol the college yells will give everyone a chance to manifest the workings of the "Oregon Spirit" in vocal utterance.

WORDING FOR DEBATE QUESTION IS DECIDEE Washington’s wording for the Inter tale delate was given first place by the University of Idaho and thus made the choice of the league. It is, “Resolved I hat all corporations engaged in Inter state Commerce should be required tc take out a federal charter. Concessions: 1. Such legislation is constitutional. 2. A federal license shall not be available as an alternative solution.” While the form of Oregon’s wording was slightly different from this, it con tained exactly the same ideas. In fact the most important item, that referring to federal license, was first suggested b> Oregon and its incorporation in the question is very probably due to the shrewd examination and lucid under standing of the most minute details b> Coach Buchen. Coach Uulme of lelahc neglected the point entirely in submit ting his wording and then showed his respect for it by voting fern Washing ton’s wording. Washington submitted her wording after the others were in and so could profit by the suggestions in them. This she evidently did and the point might have been overlooked had not Oregon’s coach detected it. Had the provision been left out it would have placed the affirmative at a serious disadvantage. 'They would have been compelled to prepare a strong con structive argument against the present form of state incorporation and also a rebuttal case against a system of federal license. Coach Buchen believes that no other "jokers” can he found in the question. Dr. Leonard or. Playing the Game In order that there may lie no con Hiet helween the Men’s Meeting in Dearly i lull, Friday, and the football rally which is to he held on the same night, it has been arranged that the meeting will begin promptly at seven and will he dismissed at seven forty live sharp. From the meeting every man is expected to go directly to the Dormitory where the students are to he assembled for the rally. The program for the meeting will be admirably lilted for a leader to the rally itself. Dr. Leonard has agreed to give an address on “Football, or Playing the (lame" after which the meeting will be turned over to the football men of the I'niversitv, who will give a number of short talks. Dr. Leonard is enough of a football enthusiast that those who at tend the meeting may be assured of a strong and interesting address. Special musical features have been secured and the singing of college songs, which has proven quite a popular feature of these meetings, will be a portion of the en tertainment. Susie Fennel Pipes, Recital Lards are out announcing the recital of Susie Fennel Pipes, head of the Violin department of the University School of Music, to be given at the F.ugene Theater, Friday evening, No vember the fifth. 1909, The assisting artists will be Mr. Fargo, tenor, recent ly from New York and Mr F. 1 lutehin on, pianist of Portland, who is rc ; oi led to be one of the best accom panists on the coast. Mrs. Pipes' reputation as an artist i Mends over the entire state. She has recently returned from dermauy. where •he stalled under the noted artist and teacher. Spieling This is her first ap pearance since her return and it wilt be received with much interest by her many friends and the music loving popula lion of F.ugene. The concert is under the direction of F.dua IT Jones. Fifteen University girls from the \\ -diingion High School of Portland have formed a social club under the name of "Owl Club." LARGEST STADIUM ON COAST FOR U. OF W. University of Washington, Nov. 2— A huge athletic field, the largest on the coast, is to he built at the University of Washington this year. It will be located about where the Stadium now stands and will extend down to Lake Washington. The dirt excavated from the government canal between the lake and Puget Sound, begun last Thursday, will be used in constructing the new field. Last Friday afternoon the underclass men met in their annual class scrap, 'flic contest was of a new variety. A flag was placed in a hox which was buried, and the sophomores were re quired to defend the grave from spolia tion by the freshmen. The sophomores won yesterday’s contest. It is not like ly that the contest will take this form another year, for the defenders have, the advantage. In yesterday’s battle the freshmen drove the sophs from the grave but were mnablc to resurrect the hox in the allotted time. Decide Fate of Theses The question of making the senior these optional instead of required as heretofore in the various departments of the University of Oregon, will be discussed at the meeting of the faculty tomorrow. A committee consisting of Professors Sweetser, Young, and Mc Allister has been appointed to consider the matter, and their report will be submitted for the consideration of the faculty at that time. Whatever the de cision may be, it will not go into active effect during the present year, and those of the class of 'll will be the first to come under the provisions of any new ruling that may be made in the matter. The recommendation of the committee is moderate. They do not advise total abolition of theses but only a few changes that they believe will make the work of more use to the students. Annual Wants Artists Fritz Dean, who has charge of the art department of the Junior Annual, has announced that he wants all artists in the University to see him immediate ly. lie intends to get things started at once and nothing but first class ma terial will be accepted. “The Annual,” says he, “furnishes the best opportunity in the university for artists to show their talent. We intend that it shall he a merited distinction for anyone to get his work in this year’s hook.” Chas.

Ask your doctor if there are any better drugs than Merck, Squibb and Park Davis manufacture.

The action of the generous Phi Delta Theta men in turning their home over to the football squad was made possible by the other fraternities, who are making the Phi Delta Thetas their guests while their house is occupied. The coaches expect many good results to come from this .arrangement for their men. 1 he Mary Spiller girls gave an in formal dance to a few of their friends on Hallowe’en.
