There will be an automobile parade | through the main streets Friday noon just before the meet, and arrangement have been made for a "smokeless smok er” to be held in the men’s gymnasium Friday evening. This event may be subject to chang . however, on account of the oratorical tryout which will oc cur on the same evening in Villard Hall. I he high school men will also be guests at the triangular meet and at the base ball game between Idaho and Oregon, occurring on the succeeding day. I he local stores will be closed during 1 ilic afternoon in honor of the occasion. Beals. Pickett, Ray, Robison and Spencer Are Put On Reserve List At the preliminary oratorical tryout William Beak. David Pickett, Leon Ray, Charles Robison and Carleton Spencer were reserved for the final try out. The contest was close and the ora tions interestingly and originally de veloped. ‘'Beauty” Robison, with his silver tongue and Southern accent, held the judge- -pellbound with the oration, "The Scapegoat,” in which he plead most effectively for the Jewish race in its so cial ostracism. , William Beals spoke on Abraham Lin coln. while Pickett developed the theme, "Universal Peace Opposed to Disarm ament." Leon Ray once more demon -trated hi; ability as a public speaker in an oration on “The Old Order Changeth.” Spencer proved conclusively that a debater can become an orator by taking up the subject, "The Rust on : Our Legal Machinery,” and pointing out abuses in court procedure. Four j candidates were unsuccessful. The fact that the orations were of -uch a high class goes to show that Profe-sor Buchen'- course^ in public -peaking are effective. All of the win ning orators are doing work in Pro fessor Buchen - classe-. where the qual itit-- and style of effective public speech •- are thoroughly discussed. The final tryout will be held in Vil lard Hall M- rch 27. and will be a public event, but no charges for ad : mi-sion will be made. CAN YOU ARRANGE A SCHEDULE FOR 11 GAMES? Suppose you were given the task of arranging a schedule in which eleven teams figure, each team to be paired with every other team. Could you know before you begin how many com binations would result? There would j be the necessity for a systematic ar i rangement of the results so that the I games could be checked off as played, j without confusion, and regardless of the order in which the games were played. Mr. Kurtz accomplished this feat by ! application of the mathematical formu la C divided by 2 equals 11.10 divided l bv 2 equals 55, and found the matter so simple that he laughs at the idea of anyone being curious about it. A glance at the schedule, however, posted in the gymnasium, will convince any “bushwah" student of the difficulty of arranging such a schedule of games. INTER-CLASS RUN WILL COME FEBRUARY 22 The date for the annual inter-class cross country run has been fixed for February 22. Two handsome silver cups will be presented by the University, one for the winning class team, and the other for the first man to breast the tape. Some of the old men of tried mettle who will participate are McGuire, McClure, Reynolds and Walls. There are also several Freshmen with low records who are expected to make good. The report that Charles McCall, '14. of the Avava Club, was suffering from typhoid, is incorrect. He had merely an attack of la grippe, and will return to college tonight. Miss 1 hazel Bradley, who has bee nill at her home in Portland, will be back again the second semester. Miss Louise Cecil will return tonight on the local. , , _ Harold H. Hunt, W. of London, is visiting at the Alpha Tail Omega house. F.dith Woodcock will not resume her college work till the second semester. Bill Fiser, who was reported ill with ' typhoid, was suffering from appendicitis. DRAMATIC CLUB GIVES Will Produce Mr. Dean Collins’ Sketch, “Playing the Game” Some evening in the latter part of January, the Dramatic Club will pre sent what promises to be one of their most successful sketches. The three act sketch. •'Playing the Game,” was written by Dean Collins and is some what unique in the fact that none of the gentler sex will appear on the boards in any role whatever. It is primarily a football play with the plot revolving around a varsity conetst. The cast is as • follows : McKinnon, former varsity fullback _ Charlie Robison Ford, present varsity fullback _ Sap Latourette Benton. Ford's rival -Lamb Rock, who is chronically broke - _ Cass Kennedy Cod _ Dunton R ndall. head of the fraternity, -- _ Ralph Moores The -cent is laid in the University of • >regon and the interest of course cen ters around the football team, wnvh is just leaving for me of its important games The play ’ • s a college "L sys tem" swing about it and with even fair acting cannot but be popular. DR. JOSEPH SHAEFER RETURNS FROM EAST Dr. Joseph Schaefer returned Tues day from a holiday trip East, where he attended the annual meeting of the American Historical Association, of which he is a member. The convention was held in the Clay pool Hotel. Indianapolis, and was well attended by prominent historians from all parts of the country. Dr. Schaefer said, in speaking of his trip: "As a member of that body. I am always interested in its great an nual gatherings for the discussion of his torical questions and for the renewal j of acquaintanceship, but this year my interest was intensified by the fact that a much loved teacher, Professor Fred : erick J. Turner, now of Harvard, but formerly of Wisconsin, presided over the meetings and delivered a notable presidential address on ‘Social Forces I in American History.' The meetings i were well attended by historians from ; every part of the United States, and it j seemed to be the general verdict that | the program was unusually interesting." Dr. Schaefer also spoke of seeing two Oregon men, Oliver Huston, TO. and Cal Sweek. ex-Tl, who were representing Yale and Ann Arbor at the Sigma Nu convention, which was also held in In dianapolis at the same time as the His torical Convention. Over fifty students of Denver Uni versity will receive low grades for the first semester as a result of taking a hol iday to celebrate a football victory. -;-- » ■ ,—; A fine new library building will soon be erected on the campus of Ohio State University. The ground will be broken within the next six weeks. A dramatic fraternity is to be organ ized at Kansas U. One of the objects of the fraternity is to exchange plays ! with other chapters. Harvard will confer the degree of “Associate in Arts” to those students who complete the courses in the Uni versity Extension. All Syracuse Freshmen, men and wo men. who can not swim, must become proficient in order to enter the life sav ing class. Northwestern University faculty will make a rule prohibiting the wearing of hobble skirts at that institution. Three boys were badly hurt at Macal ester College during the Sophomore Freshman class rush. Pay your Emerald Subscription to Manager Dobie or Cassidy Kennedy.
