FIFTEEN MEN REMAINS LIMIT IN COAST MEET Northern Universities Unable to Agree So Original Num ber Prevails 1 1 The dispute between the managers of the six universities which are to take part in the All-Coast meet at Berkeley, on May 14th, regarding the limit fixed on the number of men to be entered from any school has been settled, the original number, fifteen, being adhered to. The managers of the Northwestern ■ Universities favored a lowering ot trie ! Hint, claiming that so large a number I gave an advantage to the larger schools; but no two were able to agree upon a ■ number that would be mutually satisfac I tory. According to the University of ' Washington Daily, Manager Zednick fa cored making twelve men the limit; I while Bill Hayward wished to cut the i number down to six. The manager of the University of Idaho team made no definite statement but seemed of the opinion that fifteen would be too many. The Southern Universities under whose 1 auspices the meet is to he held, however, v.cre unanimously agreed on the num ber originally suggested; contending that it would start the meet on a fairer basis, - and he more liable in the future to 1 mcA't the requirements of the swiftly ; growing western universities. The num ber fifteen will therefore probably be the i limit fixed for these meets in the future. Tn addition to the regular track and • field events, Bill Hayward has suggest , cd that a two-mile relay race, between - teams picked from the three Universities i of the Northwest on the one hand and - of the Southwest on the other, be in cluded. This feature however has not i as yet been definitely decided upon. Miss Prosser was assisted in her first : number by .Miss Nell Murphy at the , second btattot Miss Prescott was ac i companied by Raphael Geisler.

This will afford a special opportunity for the public to hear these well known artists, for which many will, no doubt, show their appreciation by their pres ence at the contest. Q Li. -L-i. I\dy LiCriUCI U1 INCgClUVC. 'I'lie Oregon team, consisting of Col Her, Cash, and Spencer, is hard at work rounding up its irginneuts for the final clash. Under the watchful eye <>f Coach Buclien, they are spending two hours each day in practice, Coach Buclien i conlident that the dehate which they will put up against Idaho will show a marked improvement over what they did against Utah. He says, “While we may not win, yet before the contest is over, Idaho will know that they have been in a de bate.” Hollman and Clemens of the Ida hi team are old men, both of whom debat ed against Oregon last year at Moscow where Idaho won by a two to one de cision. M.ackie, the third member, at tended the University of Oregon twi years ago, and last year was at Wash ington. He is a new man in debate. Debaters, as well as the audience, al the coming debate will be much relievec by the new lighting system in Villan Hall.

FOURTEEN ASSISTANTS APPOINTED ON PAPER Emerald Staff Begins Work Un der New Provision in Constitution. In accordance with the amendment passed last Wednesday by the Associated Students giving the executive committee and the editor power to name assistants lor the Emerald, Editor Nicholas has asked for fourteen assistants and the following have belli appointed: Ralph Moores, 12; Win. E. Lowell, ’ll; Cal vin Sweek, 'll; Dean Collins, ’10; L. L. Ray, '12; R. B. Rowell, '12; VV. S. Main, ’12; 11. L. Cash, ’13; E. S. Waite, '13; Ceo. Shantin, ’12; Dan Mitchell, ’13; W. Bailey, 12, Karl Onthank, and Lay Clark, ’12. Manager Dean has asked for one ad ditional assistant, for which position, James Cauheld, ’12, has been named. I lie committee followed as far as pos sible the rule that those receiving the places should be determined by comped lion, all the appointments being from the nunibtr that have been trying out on the paper and who have made the best show ing for good, consistent work. Editor Nicholas believes that approximately this number will be enough to form a permanent staff, so it is probable that no more appointments will be made until vacancies occur. I hose who wish to be in line for po sitions will be taken on trial .as before and given every chance to show their ability. Although there may be a few vacancies in the staff from time to time, it is probable that pot many will be found until the elections early in May, when wholesale resignations always cpnie in. Lditor Nicholas says that those who are wise will begin working now for the places that arc to be filled at that time. ager Steele stales that the prospects for a good sale tire bright, and he expects *o have the largest crowd of the year. There will be no reserved seats, but | tli doors will be opened at 7:15. NO CENSOR INTENDED SAYS PRES. GUMP BELL COMMITTEE IS ONLY TO AID AND ADVISE THE OREGANA STAFF Mistake Arose Through Reviving of Old Committee on U niver sity Publications. “1 here will be no censorship of the “Oregana,” was ihe emphatic statement of President Campbell to Fritz Dean, president of the junior, class when tue latter presented him with the resolution passed by the class Iasi Wednesday altei noon. I lie matter, lie said, had simply conic up through the desire of the faculty to make the junior book a greater suc cess and to lend their aid in its publica tion. Further than advising and help ing in this way, nothing will be attempt ed. To a representative of the knurald, he went on to explain just bow the ques lion arose.\t the last mteting of the I anil tv a committee was appointed to consider the advisability of reorganiz ing the old committee on publications, of which Professor Carson was chair man. The members of the recently ap pointed committee are Dr. Cloran, Prof. I low e, Prof. Tlmrber and Prof. Clen. I bis committee will report back to the faculty at the next regular meeting in April. At the first meeting of the committee it was suggested that there was large ground for common interest between the junior class and the University as a whole, in the publication of the an nual, especially since the University (purchases a considerable number of books to send out to the state High Schools. I he help given this year’s an nual itt this matter amounts to $150. It was thought by the committee worth while to offer the Oregana publishers the opportunity of securing such assist • uve and advice as they might he aide to use to an advantage in issuing their book. Professors Howe and Thurber were, asked by the other members of the committee to co-operate as far as j os sible with the editors of the Oregana, hut the idea was to make the work ad visory in its nature. The faculty has never asked any one to act as censor, nor is there any great possibility of such action ever being taken. I here is no reason, however,” con tinued the President, ‘‘why there should not always he an intimate relationship existing between the student publications and the faculty, since they have so large a field of common interest.” Student Body Dance April 29. I lie llrst informal student body dance will be given on the 29th of April. The faculty has granted permission tor hold ing the monthly dances, but the one in April will probably be the only one given this year because of the Junior Promenade and various other student social affairs that will take place dur ing the remainder of the year. Next year, however, these informal dances will be held regularly, one each month | of the school year.
