FRIENDLY EUGENE’S LEADING STORE OREGON WINS TWO TO ONE FROM WASHINGTON (Continued from lirst page.) Collier Turns Tables Percy M. Collier, leader of the af firmative, amid prolonged applause, rose to continue the debate. He attacked the negative argument vigorously, claim ing that the "chasm" introduced by them formed part of the argument of the lirst speaker for the affirmative. 1 le show ed that the evils of over capitalization and secrecy of ownership, as well as all other corporation abuses, would be controlled by the federal government if it were given the charter granting power, as it could even revoke the char ter if necessary. Paul M. Clemens concluded the neg ative argument, lie attempted to nar row the debate to the single question ot the right of the federal government to interfere with production, the nega tive of which he maintained had been proven. lie introduced the sole con structive argument of the negative when he argued that, even in the field of commerce, a system id' valuation would 'prove more effective than .1 Federal Charter, lie endeavored to evade the lust concession stated in the question and to show that the plan proposed by the affirmative is unconstitutional. Mr. Clemens is an energetic and pleasing talker but he tailed to connect and clinch his arguments. Collier came back strong in his live minute rebuttal speech. lie strength ened and summed up the affirmative argument and asailed the valuation plan of his opponents. 11 is clear argument and forcetul delivery gave confidence to the Oregon supporters. Loud and continued cheering shook the hall when the decision of the judges was announced and when Manager Steele made known the victory at Seat tle there was universal rejoicing. Dr. J. 11. Gilbert presided and the) judges were, lion. Wm. C. Bristol of Portland, Prof. Arthur C. Boggess ot Purest Grove, and Prof. Arthur J. Prideaux of Portland. Svarverud’s orchestra furnished music during the long wait for the appear ance of the debaters. Their music was well received and the audience did not show signs of impatience. Oregon Is Champion I his victory counts Oregon four /points. I he result at Seattle makes three points more, or seven in all. The re sult of the Idaho, Washington debate has not yet been learned, but will make no material difference, but will only serve to decide second place as Ore gon s two victories clinch the debate championship for her beyond a doubt. PRESIDENT INVITED BY ATHLETIC GODNGIL Change Proposed in Student Body Amendment Made Voluntarily I lie Athletic Council by inviting the president of the student body to their meetings, have made unnecessary the amendment proposed recenth in assent lily. Pile amendment was for the pur pose of making the President of the \ S . C (). a member of the Council without the right to vote. 1 here has always been more or less friction between the Council and the president, as his signature is necessary to all appropriations, and not being a member of tin Council he was not at ways well informed upon the needs of the athletic departments. FRATERNITY MASCOTS WILL WAGE WAG Prokos, of Beta Theta Pi, Re primand.! Freshman Osky Severely "Osky" tin' six months old brindle [ hull pup belonging to the Alpha Tan Omega house, is learning fast. He lost his maiden light with Probus, who lives with the beta 1 beta Pis last evening but drew first blood. i he beta 1 beta’s and Alpha Tail’s and a few ot the High School boys were playing a wild and exciting game of baseball in the vacant held opposite the V l-O. house, when the two dogs be gan to pass unkind remarks about each other. I he exact cause of the dis agreement is not known, but the Betas claim that Prokos was justified in tell ing Osky, who i> niercK a freshman, to "key down when he began cheering ■ verloudly at the wa\ Heorge Hug was fanning out the A. T. O. batters. I ufortunately Osky didn’t feel like keying down and said as much. Prokos considered this not only a personal af tront but an insult to his fraternity and advised Osk\ to get off the field belore In chewed him up and dragged him off in little bits. Osky, who is alread> as hvu\y as Prokos, though not! yet the dog that the latter is, with the usual freshman arrogance professed pro- ■ found doubt whether Prokos, even with the help ot " l ogo" the great Dane of I the kappa Sigmas, could carry out such a threat. Ihts was the last straw to Prokos. He jumped Osky and started] to chew his neck but Osky's collar was 1 iii the way and prevented any damage. Oskey retaliated by grabbing one of Proko s tore legs and drawing blood, l hen Prokos was mad in earnest and settled down to business. He threw hi sky over and grabbed him in the place known in pugilistic language as the "bread basket.” Gsky began to see that he had start ed something he wouldn’t have much chance of being in on at tht finish and regretted it. Prokos let go of his stom ach to get a better hold, but Osky didn’t waU. He saw a hole under a neighbor ing building and lie had an overwhelm tngly feeling that there was something under there that he wanted to see. His vibee was almost tearful with apologies to Prokos for leaving him so informally but he telt that he must tear himself away and he did. Prokos didn't follow as Osky decided that the call under the house could wait and started off with a crest-fallen air towards home. hi spite of the rather ignominious conclusion of the affair the Alpha Taus are well pleased with the behavior of their pup Oskey and assert that he will "lick" Prokos within a year. The Beta’s however, have unlimited confidence in Prokos, a ml say they tire ready to back this confidence with something more substantial, that Osky will never lick Prokos. I he A. 1. O.’s. however, say they are ready to take all the money in sight in support of their faith in the youthful Osky. Prokos has mixed sev eral times since his maiden light with l!oli horhes hull dog early in the fall and the Alpha bans say that Osky is ifng in training immediately. The promoters and “tight fans” of both sides are awaiting results with interest. Miss \lthea Moores, Miss Nellie Teil M,u am! Miss Louise I hompson, of Salem, are visiting at tile Kappa Alpha I’heta House. \ WOMEN’S GYMNASIUM EXHIBIT NEXT WEEK First Year’s Work Under Physi cal Director to Be Dem onstrated I he Women’s gymnasium exhibition will be given in the new gymnasium next I hursday evening.
