GON ALUMNUS IN SIAM
Clarence Steele, ’10, Writes Interest
ing Letter From Distant
Land.
Bangkok. Siam, Jan. 7, 1912.
Mr. Arthur M. Geary,
Eugene, Oregon.
My Dear Friend:
Located as I am out here, over
10,000 miles from the University, I
don't get to hear or see much news
of the Institution that I learned to
love so much, but I have just received
fro my father the page of the Ore
gonian dated Nov. 12, that contains
the article which you wrote on some
of the records of the University and
I want to congratulate you on the
splendid article. It has been assigned
a place in my scrap-book and will
help to remind me of the days I spent
with you.
Think of waiting all this time to
hear the result of the game between
Oregon and Washington, and then
have to be disappointed by such a
score as 29-3. But both sides can’t
win and we must take our turn in
losing sometimes, I suppose. I hope
we may be more successful in the
track meets this spring.
We had a fine trip on our way out
here, sailing from San Francisco Oc
tober 17, and stopping at Honolulu,
Yokohama, Tokio, Kobe, Nagasaki,
Manila, Hong Kong, Canton, and
Singapore, before we reached Bang
kok on the 5th of December. We
were here in time, however, to see
much of the coronation ceremonies of
His Majesty the King of Siam, and it
was a grand and gorgeous spectacle.
Conditions here are fast becoming
modern. We have a modern home in
most respects and while it differs con
siderable from those at home, we are
able to live quite comfortable.
Ask the proper party to see that I
get the Emerald regularly. Must
close now.
Best regards from your old friend,
CLARENCE A. STEELE.
0. A. C. in answer to a Whitman
editorial, saying that Oregon and 0.
A. C. were dissatisfied with their
present systems of coaching, says the
0. A. C. is perfectly satisfied with
Coach Dolan and desires no change.
WANTED, A TRACK ASSISTANT—
Any strong, husky under-classman,
who desires to be student manager
of track next year, should report to
Manager Geary.
Do Not Forget
when going home on your vacation,
to take home a box of “OTTO’S”
VICTORIA CHOCALATES, the best
chocolates made.
Have you paid that dollar to the
Emerald? Do it now.

FAMOUS BROOKLYN PASTOR
TO ADDRESS LOCAL AUDIENCE
If unusual importance to both the
college students and towns people is
the news that has just been received
from Portland that Dr. Robert M.
Moore, pastor of one of the largest
churches in the United States, that of
St. Johns M. E. Church of Brooklyn,
New York* will stop off to speak in
Eugene. <
Dr. Moore is one of the biggest
men connected with the great Men
and Religion Forward Movement, and
up in Seattle, according to Fred B.
Smith, the talker to men, whom we
had the pleasure of hearing two years
ago, Dr. Moore made the deepest im
pression of any of the team of ex
perts.
Dr. Moore will speak at a special
mass meeting in Villard Hall on Fri
day afternoon of this week, at 4
o’clock. This treat is open to every
one.

“THE NEW CHINA” IS SUBJECT
OF VISITING SPEAKER
The University men will have an
opportunity on Thursday evening to
learn, at first hand, something about
a great world movement that has been
occupying a major part of the news
paper columns recently. Mr. Marion
F. Keeys, lately a resident of Canton,
China, will address the men on the
subject, “The New China.”
Mr. Keeys has seen the working out
of the revolutionary changes that
have taken place as that slumbering
nation has awakened. He understands
the situation there thoroughly, so his
lecture should be worth while to ev
ery one who wants to keep in touch
with the rapid changes in the thought
of the twentieth century.
A special solo will be rendered by
Mr. Oliver Needham. The meeting
will be held in Deady Hall from 7 to
7:50 P. M.

PRELIMINARY TRACK WORK
TO BEGIN NEXT WEEK
Trainer Rill Hayward, Oregon’s
wonderful coach, will issue his first
call for track men early next week
and a rousing meeting of all those in
terested in landing the championship
bunting for Oregon this season, will
be held in the gymnasium. After the
meeting the veteran coach will line
up the recruits from the freshman
class together with the old guard of
last year’s fray, and the preliminary
track work for the 1912 season will
be commenced. As soon as the
weather permits the outside track
will be put in perfect condition. Lit
tle difficulty is expected to be en
countered in putting the circular path
in shape for record smashing, as the
widening and grading done last year
was of a permanent order.
After basketball activities have
subsided, Coach Hayward will devote
his entire time to developing and
rounding the track squad into perfect
condition.
Yielding to protests of thousands
of students and alumni of Cornell,
the athletic counsel rescinded its re
cent action awarding the ’varsity C
to the managers of major sports.
