LET ER RAIN The presentation of “The Clouds” is expected to rain a few welcome sheckels into the Student Body treas ury. In other words the silver lining of “The Clouds” will go to the Asso ciated Students. The treasury cer tainly needs silver from somewhere. Here’s hoping there is an abundance. But hoping isn’t enough. See that there is. It’s that or bankruptcy. Do you care which ? “The Clouds” is a first class play; absolutely the best ever put on by the University students. No one can afford to miss it. Don’t let him. It’s for the Student Body. Every student boost; we’ll get out of debt and start our activities next year with a clear field. It’s worth while.

OREGONIAN COMMENTS ON STUDENTS’ WORK Monday’s Morning Oregonian had the following editorial comment upon the work done by the students in the class in journalism last Tuesday even ing: “The class in journalism at the Uni versity of Oregon had it first les son in practical work in handliiu elec tion returns at Eugene. The young men and women did the job so well the Register was enabled to print complete unofficial return- Thursday morning.” Jim Thorpe, the Indian, whom “Bill” Hayward classes a; the great - est all around athlete of the world, was the hero of the Carlisle-West Point game. The Indians defeated the soldiers, 27 to 6. oooooooooooooooooooooooo o o o WHAT THE COLLEGE EDITORS ARE SAYING o o o V U V U V u tj u u u u u O. A. C. WANTS THE OTHER FELLOW TO CLEAN UP “Why did W. S. C. win Friday? Did Coach Bender give the O. A. C. bunch a square deal when he withheld his evidence against Hauser until the last moment? Furthermore, are the two Pullman stars, Keinholtz and Apple quist, as unpolluted with the stain of professionalism as Coach Bender would have us believe? “These are a few questions that are puzzling the followers of the grid iron game. Coach Bender evidently considers it good sportsmanship to act as he did regarding Hauser, but there are many who disagree with him. The Pullman coach purposely refrained from submitting his evi dence to the O. A. C. faculty commit tee, and allowed Dolan to develop a backfield around Hauser. Then shortly before the game, he produced evidence, and as a result of this doubt ful strategy, in connection with sev eral other circumstances unfavorable to O. A. C., managed to get on to the big end of the score. “The W. S. C. students are good sports and their coach’s actions prob ably do not meet with their approval. Bender has shown once more, of just what stuff he is composed. It is such “dirty work” as this that is re sponsible for the undesirable fea tures which exist in Inter-collegiate football. “W. S. C. played two men whose el igibility is doubtful. Investigations are now being conducted which will determine definitely whether or not Keinholtz and Applequist are profes sionals. The result of this investiga tion is awaited with interest, as it will have a vital bearing on the stand ing of Bender’s team in the Confer ence.”—O. A. C. Barometer. PAPER MEN COMING Replies From Editors Show That Interest Is Being Taken In Journalism Department. Replies to letters sent out by Pro fessor Allen, of the Department of Journalism, to editors throughout the state, in regard to the newspaper men who will be here for the conference Friday and Saturday of this week, are being received. C. Clinton Page, editor of the Al bany Evening Herald, and formerly of this city, replied that he would be here, and added that "1 am with you heart and soul in your work, and if I may assist you with the Evening Herald at any time, the pleasure is all mine.” George M. Cornwall, editor of the Timberman, of Portland, accepted the invitation, and said that "1 have been watching with a great deal of in terest yoru efforts in the establish ment of a chair to cover this great field at the University of Oregon, which is indeed highly commendable. My best wishes for your success.” Hugh Hume, editor of the Port land Spectator, was not able to at tend, but as his part in aiding the work, said that he had put the Uni versity School of Journalism on the free list of his paper. A. (1. Carruth, editor of the Carlton Sentinel, sent his regrets. Y. W. C. A. DRINKS TEA AND PRAYS FOR AFRICA The first of the series of meetings of the "Week of Prayer” was held Monday afternoon by the Y. W. C. A. The custom of devoting a week each year to prayer for the different na tions and their missions is adhered to by all the Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A.’s branches in the world. Africa was the country especially prayed for yesterday; the general subject of the meeting was Prayer, discussed by Mrs. Fletcher. After the meeting, the girls spent a social hour over the tea cups, as the guests of Mrs. Fletcher. "This social hour is the first of many 1 have planned. 1 hope we may have one each month,” she said. Coach Gilmour Dobie of Washing ton announces that when his present contract expires at the end of the 1913 season, he will retire from foot j ball. WASHINGTON WOULD CLEAN UP ATHLETICS “Only last spring a regent of the University told us in assembly how much purer from professionalism our conference was than some Eastern athletic leagues. And despite the fact that several baseball nines at that very time were known to have pro fessionals on their teams, we sat back comfortably in our seats and medi tated on how good we were. “This fall’s football experience proves again that his praise was al together undeserved. There has been scarcely a contest this year but has seen the protesting of some player. Already one man has been disbarred, and other men are confronted with charges which seem to have a rea sonable basis of truth. “The situation is decidedly serious. When college men cannot conduct their sports on a foundation of com mon honesty and sportsmanship there are ample grounds on which the ha bitual knocker of higher education may base his attacks. It is a serious reflection on the moral thinking of undergraduates. “To look at the more material side of the question, such a lapse from good faith is sure to arouse feelings which will inevitably lead to the breaking up of the conference—so an authority so well informed as Coach Gilmour Dobie assures us. So long as colleges protest back and forth every chanpionship contest in an en tire season, it is hopeless to look for the harmony and good feeling neces sary to success in a conference. “The situation is not new, but it does exist in a more aggravated con dition than ever before. Athletic authorities, in their annual meetings around the conference, have staved off any decisive action as long as they can. It’s about time for us to clean house and start over again.”—U. of W. Daily. QUESTION CHOICE MADE The Debate Council, together with the members of the University de bating teams, made the Oregon choice this afternoon upon the debate ques tions submitted by the Universities of Washington and Stanford. The University’s contribution, the Immi gration question, was favored by the Council, with Stanford’s proposal, Ab solute Arbitration, second in their estimation. The Washington ques tion, the Single Tax, was third. The final question for debate will be known as soon as the other in stitutions are heard from, making their choice the same as the Couicil did this afternoon. Three thousand athletic tickets have been sold this season at the Univer sity of California. o o The University of Southern Califor nia is now conferring the degree of Bachelor of Science upon graduates of the School of Physical Education.
