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.

DEBATERS NOTENTERING
TRYOUTS AS EXPECTED
Debate Management Worried at
Lack of Interest
To date, only three freshmen have
handed in their names for the debating
team tryouts, which will occur Novem
ber 18 and 23.
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.

BLOODTHIRSTY CANINE

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.
