Hardware 513 Willamette Street NO CREDITS FOR FANCY DANGERS SAYS FACULTY Co-Eds Must Dance Merely For Physical Culture, Hereafter, the Oregon co-ed will at tend the dancing classes merely for physical culture, and not for credits. Such is the ruling of the faculty, which has vetoed Dr. Bertha Stuart’s plan of giving one hour’s credit for the class known officially as fancy dancing, and colloquially as co-ed ballet. This ac tion was voted by the faculty after at tention being called to an old rule which prohibits any college credit being given for physical training. Since the advent of Dr. Stuart as head of the women’s department of Phys ical Culture, this branch of college work has been re-established in co-ed popu larity, and this course in fancy dancing was one of the most popular of any in the department. It is said that another course will be substituted. Rex Turner is spending week end i with his parents at Salem.

Manager Huntington feels badly dis couraged at this poor showing from the class of 1914, and as a trip to Salt Lake City in January is the reward for suc cess, believes that the new men should develop more “pip.” The books close Tuesday, and no names will be con sidered. The Utah team has always been one of the most desirable to se cure a position on, especially as on this year, when the debate occurs in the Mormon city. In addition to the trip to Salt Lake, the college arguers will have this year, for the first time, the trip to Stanford for the triangular Pacific Coast debate. Of the old men, Collier, Spencer, Zim merman, Powell and Ray are back, and there are also many freshmen with promising prep reputations, as Crock ett, Young, Motschenbacher, Yaden and Foster. Contrary to a previous announcement, the candidates will not be divided for the trials November 18 and 23, but all will be put through both. COMBINE SORORITIES? NO! SAY WOMEN The Emerald this morning received an authoritative denial of the rumor that two sororities were to be combined, or that rather one was to absorb the other. Vague reports to this effect have been rife on the campus for two weeks, but the charge is now definitely quashed. *********** * CALENDAR * * Saturday, November 5— * * 8:00 P.

FRIENDLY LEADING STORE College men and women trade at Friendly’s because it is the only natural thing for them to do WHY? • • • There’s a Reason Think if Over BLOODTHIRSTY CANINE SEES LEPUS CUNICULUS Pinkham’s Dog Makes Record Sprint Everybody at Oregon knows Prokos, and Prokos knows everyone, from the greenest freshman whose advances he becomingly snubs, to Miss Leach, who regularly evicts him from the Library. His honorable scars bear witness of his prowess in the ring and street, but few had ever recognized in Louis Pink ham’s trim Pitt Bull the makings of a great sprinter. Friday morning, how ever, Prok showed a world of speed and class and acquired a “rep” as a run ning hound. Prok’s eight o’clock had just dismissed and he was idling a few moments on the Library steps exchanging the latest political gossip with Toke and Leo, while he waited for the nine o’clock gong. Suddenly it happened. Prok gazed intently. It was almost too good to be true. Yes, there it was, a real live jack rabbit, coming across the campus in a long swinging lope, its ears flopping in the most unconcerned nonchalant way imaginable. Apprising the other fellows with a short nervous yelp, Prok was off, helter skelter, his short deter mined legs making six jumps to the rab bit’s one. Across the road they went and started toward the Women’s Dorm. Prok gaining every jump. Then the jack rabbit made the greatest and last mistake of his life, for he turned onto the tennis courts and dashed wildly from screen to screen. Prok was at a disadvantage with this sudden turning and wheeling, but stuck to his work as a thoroughbred should. The finale came in the corner of the fence and for a min ute the air was full of rabbit fur. About this time Toke had grasped the situation and came lumbering up only to with draw away with a grieved expression. Prok bore his honors easily and | turned away gravely but modestly from ! his friend’s effusive congratulations. Pie ' wishes, however, to deny the report that he will join Bill’s cross country squad. SORORITIES VISITED BY 3 HALLOWE’EN WITCHES “Hello! Is this the Chi Omega house?” “Yes.” “Well, have all lights out and a big hlaze in the fireplace at 9:30. and Macbeth’s witches will be over to reveal your life’s secrets, past, pres • ent and future, and also to perform the mystic rites of All Saints’ eve.” Such was the message received Mon day night by a winsome freshman, whose duty it was to answer the phone at the ' sorority house. Promptly at the appointed mystic hour, three terrific knocks sounded, and when the startled house mother went to the door a cavernous voice startled her. “Lights out as ordered.” This order obeyed, in walked Hecate and her two companions, who proceeded to gather the girls around the fireplace, tell for tunes. concoct never failing love charms, and to brew over the fire mysterious, powerful potions. The identity of the three witches baffled all attempts at de tection, and mystery was added to the j affair by report of a similar occurrence at the Lambda Rho house. Here, how-1 ever, the witches’ human identity at least I was established, for they managed to stow away a very substantial lunch of | cider and doughnuts, appropriate to the occasion. EMERSON IANS SADLY IN NEED OF ENTHUSIASTS Unless some effort is made to revive the Emersonian Club, which was found ed in the University last year, the or ganization will pass out of existence. I he object of the club was to promote free thinking and logical discussions. Pen Williams was president. It is due to the absence of a number of the last | year’s seniors that the work along Em ersonian lines has been allowed to drag. _| " i (icnevieve \\ ilcox left on yesterday’s local for Portland, where she will make a short visit.
