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.

At the Oregon-1 dalio debate in Vil
lard Hall on next Friday evening, the
Mandolin, as well as the Glee Club,
will, for the First time in the memory
of present students, turn out to help
entertain a crowd at a Varsity debate.

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.

'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. Debaters have complained thru
| with the old lights they could hardlv
! read notes, but with the new chande
liers of Funston lights this will be rem
| edit'd, and also tbe audience will be abl<
to see the faces of the speakers.
Tickts for the debate are now in the
hands of solicitors, but the five dollai

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.
