GAME AT COR VALLIS It speaks well for the good sports manship of the students of the Uni versity that they should take the ini tiative in the movement to have the football game with O. A. C. at Cor vallis this year. Although the cus tom of the conference colleges is to alternate in the choosing of the places of playing and although 0. A. C. chose the meeting place of the last game, so strong is the feeling of friendship for our sister college, that the students are willing and anxious to do all in their power to cement the bond of good fellowship, and to allow the coming game to be played on the O. A. C. campus. That portion of the faculty inter viewed since the movement began, seems highly in favor of such action, which proves beyond question that the prohibition of a game in Portland was for the welfare of the students and the University. The team has all the traveling it can possibly stand. A game in Port land live days before the big Multno mah game would mean a loss of the entire Thanksgiving week. Portland and Eastern Oregon students can not afford to make the trip twice, and in order to attend the O. A. C.-Ore gon game, which practically every student intends to do, they would be required to remain over the rest of the week. it only remains for the faculty to pass upon this measure and, if favor able, it will insure the best of feeling on both sides, and our friendly ath letic relations will be permanently strengthened. ERECTION OF NEW WOMEN’S DORMITORY POSTPONED l>r. Haimnond, of the local Episco pal Church stated yesterday that in regard to the projected Episcopalian dormitory for University women, nothing had been done for some months, other than securing a build ing site and completing plans for the structure. The rector is of the opinion, that no further steps will be taken until spring. Bishop Charles Scudding will be in Eugene within a short time, to look over the situation, and may be able to give more detailed information concerning the erection of the new dormitory. PECULIAR Cl AY IS FOUND BY CHEMISTRY DEPARTMENT Professor O. F. Stafford, of the chemistry department, recently ana lyzed samples of a peculiar clay sent to his department for analysis by a resident of Myrtle Point, Oregon. Upon investigation, Professor Staf ford found that the clay was of a highly plastic nature, and that it shrank very little upon burning, thus making it especially valuable for pot tery purposes. A more thorough examination of the substance will be made later. 000000000000 0 0 0 ANNOUNCEMENTS o 0 0 000000000000 Violinists—P’irst rehearsal of String Orchestra, Villard hall, Monday even ing, eight o’clock. ooo Student Affairs Committee—Meets Wednesday afternoon, October ninth, ooo Eutaxians—Meet Tuesday, at seven o’clock, in Professor Schafer’s room in the Library building. ooo Laureans—Meet Tuesday evening, seven o’clock in Professor’ Schmidt’s room. ooo Wanted—Two students to work for their board, clearing cafeteria tables.

C. is Favored by Council for Entrance in Tri-State Oratorical Association. At a meeting of the committee on oratory and debate last night, Ore gon’s choice of a question for the Tri State Debating League was made. Two members of the committee, Miss Carin Degermark and Harold Warner, were present, who, together with Bert Prescott, the debating coach, selected the Immigration question as the choice of the Oregon representatives. By the rules of the Tri-State De bating League, consisting of Stanford, Washington, and Oregon, each school chooses a subject for debate, and one question is selected from the three submitted. The committee decided in regard to the Inter-State Oratorical Contest, that the University is in favor of ad mitting the Oregon Agricultural Col lege into the Association. The league now consists of Oregon, Idaho, Wash ington, and Montana, and the present contract in regard to rules and prizes will continue another year. DICTAPHONE IS ADDED TO PRESIDENT’S OFFICE To facilitate the dispatch of his administrative business, President Campbell lias had a dictaphone in stalled in his office in Villard hall. The instrument, resembling a phon ograph, consists of a receiver, through which the dictation is given, and a revolving rubber cylinder, upon which the blank record is placed. The dictation is impressed upon this blank record, the record is removed and placed on the recording machcine. The individual receiving the dictation places upon his head an apparatus similar to that used by a telephone operator, and through this receives the message. The shaving machine is used to grind down the records after they have once been used. The price of this time saving device, complete, was $230; $00 for the dicta ting device, $80 for the reproducing machine, and $00 for the shaving ap paratus. CI)c Sfyack MENU Tomato Bullion.
