The smarter set of the city attended and with them mingled a number of the leaders of the more ' elite University circles. The large and commomious rooms ac comodated the large number without difficulty and drew from the guests ! many favorable comments anent the chasteness and good taste of the fur nishings. The salon, with rare good taste and simple elegance, has been left with the natural wood finish though it is announced that cheese cloth wdl be tacked over the rafters. The hosts had refrained from issuing special cards preferring that friends drop in informally. A regrettable fea ture was that three vulgar persons took advantage of this and forced their way into the coiree. One, a mere trades man from Wendling, had imbibed too freely of cognac and gave the servants considerable trouble before he was safe ly escorted to his carriage. Another character whom it was darkly rumored is a prominent Varsity social lion and clubman and a scion of an old family was ejected for peculiar mannerisms in dancing.. A lady, who is known as a vulgar social climber and who revolves in another social circle, intruded herself upon the assemblage. She was kindly, but firmly asked to withdraw. This unpleasantness, however, was the only blemish upon the evening’s brilliana. Snyders’ Band the Symphony of Springfield, discoursed soft strains, | sheltered behind greens. Promenades in the conservatory adjacent greenery and on the railroad track provided the between dances diversion. Altogether the youth, beauty and gallantry made a spectacle not soon to be forgotten by the elect who were fortunate enough to be there. IRISH CLUB CHALLENGE TEUTONS TO PLAY BALI The natural racial antagonism exist ing at the University between the Irish and the Germans has at last come to a head in the challenge to mortal combat which was hurled at the Teutons by the wearers of the green on Monday night. According to Mason Roberts, charter member of the Blackthorne so ciety, the representatives of the Hiber nian race at Oregon wish to decide once and for all the question of national su periority by means of a ball game to be played some time in the near future. The Irish, with the impetuosity pe culiar to their nation are the aggres sors in the affair, while the Germans have as yet carefully refrained from giving vent to any expressions either of assent or of dissent with the plan, but with characteristic Teuton fore sight and stability, are quietly taking stock of their resources. Chief of these is the redoutable Ferd ITenkle who is likely to aid the Dutch materially in their efforts to retaliate on the over confident Blackthorne club. At present, however, everything rests with the Ger ni' ns and their reply to the challenge is being awaited with ever-increasing in terest. MAY 5 CHOSEN* ASDATE FOR WOMEN'S TALKFEST May 5th has been definitely decided upon as the date on which the women of the University of Washington and the University of Oregon will meet in forensic contest in Villard Hall. Birdie Wise, Cnrin Degermark and Lilah Clark, leader, (to speak in the ordCr named! will represent Oregon. The question has been outlined and each member of the team is hard at work reading up on the subject. While it is, of course, impossible to predict the outcome of the debate, yet Oregon’s hopes for victory are bright, as all Oregon's representatives have had Considerable experience.
