Busher Brown detailed the plans for the rally tomorrow night and the parade in Portland Saturday. President Camp bell followed him with a short but pointed talk on Inter- and lntra-Col legiate sports. Capt.

The students of the University will , be interested to learn that motion pictures of Dante's "Inferno” will be ; shown at the Eugene Theatre for a three day's run. This picture is not only interesting as a motion picture, but is of great educational value. In taking this picture whole moun tains, rivers, and lakes were used as a scenic background, and the story is graphically told in over live thousand feet of sensational pictures. The basis upon which the producers worked was Dole's "Illustrations of Dante's Divine Comedy.” The story of the film is Dante’s trip through the In- , l'erno, and shows how his imagination pictured the punishment for the dif ferent sins. ,The first time this picture was shown in San Francisco, it enjoyed crowded houses for three solid weeks. It will be shown at the Eugene Thea tre for three days, commencing to morrow, November 1-3, with matinees I daily. j OREGON’S TEAM WILL BOARD TRAIN FRIDAY Practically the whole squad will go to Portland on Friday morning and will be quarterer at the Imperial Ho tel, phich is to be the headparters for the Oregon supporters. Latourette and Brad, the principal members of the hospital corps, are on the mend, and with the field general and the best bet among the ends in shape for the first lineup, the chances of the team looks better. Thursday and Friday the team will indulge only in light signal practice in order to be on edge for the referees whistle on Saturday. Nothing definite can be learned of the personal of the first lineup from the coaches. * * * * * ITEMS OF INTEREST * * FROM THE COLLEGES * * * ********** The men of Cauthorn Hall, | the met’s dormitory at the Oregon Agri cultural College, have organized a brass band. Football has been discontinued at the Montana Agricultural College for the rest of the season, on recommend ation of the faculty. The action fol lowed tha death of Charles Lange, due to injuries received in a recent game. , Washington State College is to have a new athletic field which is to be constructed before the close of the present school year. The new field will be laid out just west of the pres ent field, and will contain a football and baseball field as well as a track aval. Together with the old athletic field, this will give W. S. C. the finest athletic field equipment in the west, providing for two baseball diamonds, two gridirons, two track ovals, as well as tennis courts. A i system of drain age will be instituted in both fields, making them reasonably dry under all conditions of weather. At the expiration of his .term of of fice, on December 1st, Graduate Man ager John Jones of the Washington State College will leave the student treasury at that institution in, better condition than ever in its history. Manager Jones will turn his attention to other lines at the close of his man agership, and ,the authorities are ooking for another man to take his place. Among those who have ap plied for the position are Ralph M. Rader, fullback on the 1907 team,,and such athletic stars as Laird, Nelson, Patton and Putnam. It is also rum ored that John Bender, coach of the 1907 team,, is willing to both coach football and manage student activities for the Pullman institution. In the two games played this year he Washington State management uis realized a surplus of $1,200. rwo hundred dollars was made off of he Oregon game, while a net surplus )f $900 was gathered from the Idaho •ontest. That ^the graduate manager system pays is now fully established \t the Washington institution. Bogle, of the University of Michi gan eleven, kicked a placement goal Torn the sixty yard (line in the recent ;ame with Ohio State University. F'elix E. Moore, 1907, is now prin cipal of Ashland's new High School. Marvin Scarbrough, '02, is now \sistant in Surgery at Yale Uni versity. Edward S. Van Dyke, ’01, is As sistant District Attorney for South ern Oregon. Harold E. Bates, TO, is Assistant Instructor in Zoology at the Univer sity of Oregon. Harry O. Paddock, ’07, is Deputy Collector of Internal Revenue at Port and. Walter L. Whittlesey, ’01, is now1 connected with the American Tele-1 phone and Telegraph Co. of New * fork City. JUNK WILL INVEST IN GLASSY HEADGEAR * _ * Men of ’13 Will Sport the Latest Thing In Class Regalia. When the men of the Junior class of the University of Oregon appear on the campus topped with the latest sensation in junior plugs, they will inaugurate a brand new custom to be added to Oregon’s stock of traditions. In the greatest secrecy did the en terprising sensationalists solicit funds from the junior masculine element for their distinctive headgear and the affair has been kept under cover un til recently. The magnitude of the sensation is still a matter of conjecture, nor is it exactly known what the action of the other classes will be. The reticent juniors have failed to reveal the oc casion upon which their new regalia will be worn or how long they expect to wear them. The cost of the new plug is one dollar and twenty-five cents, and to a man almost they were ordered. Those active in the movement wish to state that they are not in any way working in opposition to the Eugene mer chants, but they considered that the sight of their new plugs displayed in show windows would arouse too much envy among the other classes and consequently they were ordered through a San Francisco house. The same famous hatters that sup plied President Taft with a hat when his was blown off in crossing San Francisco bay, will furnish the head gear for our progressive Juniors. ** * * * BILL MAIN * * _ * * We’ll go up against the tough- * * est team and one of the wiliest * *’ coaches in the Northwest, Satur- * * day.

The method followed will be to select several plays such as the “School for Scandal,” or “She Stoops to Conquer,” and submit them to the class in the near future, thus leaving the final selection to the class. For the last few weeks the committee has been examining differ ent plays with a view toward their adaptibility, and it has also been trying to get in touch with Donald Bowles in order to obtain any sug gestion which he might give. The se lection of the caste has been left to a committee of instructors. It is in tended to select a play with as large a caste as possible, so that all the latent talent of the class will be drawn upon and the interest thereby greatly increased. Manager Jones, of Washington State College, will attempt to play next year’s Oregon-W. S. C. game at Portland.

I - PORTLAND, Ore., Nov. 15.—(Spe cial to the Emerald.)—Portland will support the Oregon team in the cham pionship struggle Saturday. Oregon stock is going up and a great many predict a victory for the home team. Nearly one-half of the reserved seats have already been sold, and prospects are good for a $10,000 crowd. Every man, women and child in the city is developing an intense interest in the game, which is ex pected to surpass in every way, any previous encounter ever pulled off in the Northwest. The game is expected to bring out a wonderful demonstration of Oregon Spirit. The Law, Medical, Dental and High School students, together with the Multnomah Club members, are peparing to support Oregon and root lustily for the wearers of the lemon yellow. A union smoker has been called by the medical and law students for Fri day evening in the Selling-Hirsch building and every Oregon student in the city will attend, through a special | invitation. Victor Zednick, the Washington graduate manager, arrived in Port land this morning, and predicts a 12 to 0 victory for the Northern school. He has not yet come to terms with Manager Johns of Oregon—as to the officials for the game.—By Arthur M. Geary. * • * LOUIS PINKHAM * * _ * * “There will be about an even * * break for the victory, but I think, * * personally, that Oregon will have * * the large end of the score. Our * * line has always been a stone wall * * and ends have improved so * * greatly in the last two weeks, * * that the Washington backs will * * make little yardage around * * them.” * * * ********** ********** * • * DEAN WALKER * * “I don’t want ter say much * * about the game, except that I'll * * be mighty glad to get a chance at * * Washington.” * * * ********** ********* * ELMER HALL * * “I think we have a little the ad- * * vantage on Washington; they’ll * * know they’ve played, when they * * get through with us, anyway.” * * * ********** ********** * BOB KELLOGG * * -- * * Hard to tell how the game will * * wind up.
