No. 26 NEWSPAPERMEN SEE GLASS OFWORK DONE IN NEW DEPARTMENT PROFESSOR ALLEN PROPOSES THAT EDITORS FIX STAND ARDS OF NEWS COURSE JOURNALISM AN ART, S AYSCOL.HOFER Relation of State Publications and Oregon System is Theme Chosen by Sam Evans. The conference of the Western Ore gon Editor’s Association in Eugene yesterday, and its entertainment on the campus, signalled the first official recognition, by the press of the State, of the newly-created Department of Journalism, and went far toward giv ing the Oregon Emerald a permanent place as a recognized factor in state newspaper circles. Afternoon Session Open. After the morning session of the Association at the Commercial Club, which was given over to business transactions, the delegates adjourned, to re-assemble, at the invitation of Professor E. W. Allen, in the main hall of the Journalism Department. The afternoon session was open to all, a special invitation having been ex tended to members of the Emerald iptaff and students in the Journalism Department. Professor Allen presid ed, and opened the Assembly with a brief sketch of the growth of the science of teaching journalism in col leges, and a review of the progress of the local school. Continuing, he sub mitted to the editors a plan for the organization of a Central Council of newspaper editors to act as an advisory board, and determine stand ards and courses of study to be fol lowed by the department. Jenkins Praises Student Work. Col. E. Hofer followed with a pithy talk on the finer aspects of journal ism. “It is not a science; it is an art —the fine art of modern times; the highest form of human- interest.” Col. Hofer classifies journalism as— Metropolitan, Provincial, Weekly, Trade, and Amateur. Mr. Frank Jenkins, of the Eugene Register, praised the work of the students at the polls and newspaper offices election night, and expressed the opinion that hereafter there would always be a demand for assistance from the department when crises oc curred in the publication of the local dailies.

Owing to the amount of material collected for the first issue and the difficulty encountered in sorting out the literary gems, the “Green Cap Weekly,” the strictly Freshman pub lication, will not make its debut until November 25. This is the information conveyed by lurid posters recently displayed upon the bulletin boards and campus, which are the work of the manager of the embryonic rival to existing college publications. Although it was inferred through the original advertisements that the new organ of the oppressed will only consider first year subscrib ers, the publishers are not worried over the fact that there are but two bone fide Frosh subscribers on all the extant lists. They find solace in the fact that the names of many campus notables have affixed their supposed signatures to the subscription. Manager A. L. Mickey, in speaking of the delay, said, “We had to do it. More good material came in than we expected.” The “we” refers also to the editor in-chief, James A. Loundagin, the thirty-five year old Freshman from Garfield, Wash. MRS. PIPES WILL RECITE Former University Teacher of Violin to Appear at Villard Hall Monday Night. Sunday Mrs. Pipes is scheduled to give a concert at the Rex Theatre. She was for three years a teacher of violin in the University Depart ment of Music. Later she went to Berlin for two years of study and taught a year after returning. She moved to Portland after that and since living there she has taught a little, but most of her spare time was spent in private concert work. Dorm Sends Staggs to Seattle. Through a personal contribution of 50 cents from every man in the Dor mitory, enough money was raised last Tuesday to send Ira Staggs, ’14, to Seattle for the Oregon-Washington game today. The suggestion was first made at a meeting of the Dorm Club last Tues day noon, and resulted in the election of the club’s representative that even I ing. Staggs has been keeping the ; men informed of his whereabouts and experiences through a postal card bulletin sent each day to Thad Went worth, president of the club. EXECUTIVE COUNCIL SAKS OVERALLS AND ADDONS ILL BE ALLOWED AT HARVEST DANCE A real, old time harvest dance is announced by the Executive Council for next Saturday night. Overalls and soft shirts for the men and shirt waists, sack aprons, and “breakfast caps” for the college girls are to be in order, with “boiled shirts.” coats and party gowns strictly taboo. Good sweet cider instead of punch will be served. “An informal informal, if one may use the expression, is what we had in mind,” said Carleton Spencer, chair man of the Council, this morning. “The impression has gotten out that it is to be a “hard times” affair, but this is not the case. It is to be a harvest ball, absolutely informal, but not with the rags and the roughneck extremes to which hardtimes socials [often go.” “The girls refuse to come dressed i in rage, anyway,” said Karl Martzloff, of the Council, “but I think the | aprons and caps will make a hit. This is a good time for the Fresh . men girls to appear in their green dust caps that we have been hearing about at one or two of the sorority houses.”' An admission fee of fifty cents will be charged. Student Body tickets will not be accepted, as the second dance which they call for is sched uled for the early part of December, when the football squad will be elig ible to attend. ‘ 30-14 VICTORY FOR WASHINGTON CLOSES MOST BRILLIANT GAME OF 1012 SEASON Seattle, Wash., Nov. 16—(Special) —Although defeated in today’s game with the University of Washington by the score of 30 to 14, the Oregon team put up one of the most brilliant exhibitions of football ever seen on Denny Field. The mere fact that eight forward passes netted 166 yards, and two touchdowns, and that all of Oregon’s scores were made in the final quarter, speak for themselves. Coach Dobie, in speaking of today’s game, said, “I do not care to com pare the relative standing of Oregon and 0. A. C., because I do not wish to hurt one team’s feelings. I will say that our game wfith O. A. C. was no criterion to judge comparative scores, for I called that game water polo. There is no comparison.” First Quarter The first quarter of the Oregon Washington game closed with the Score 10 points in favor of Washing ton, with honors of the game in fa vor of the victors. Oregon tried in vain to hold the march of the Washington backs, and did so for brief periods. After an exchange of punts, Wash ington recovered a punt fumbled by Cornell on the 25-yard line. Young’s first drop kick failed. Walker lost 4 yards, then punted to the center of the field. Washington immediately rushed the ball back in seven plays to the 27-yard line, and Young’s second drop kick was a success. Five minutes later, Oregon recov ered Young’s punt from the center of the field to the 8-yard line. Oregon made a successful fight in holding for downs, and recovered the ball on the 3-yard line. Fenton at tempted to punt to safety, but it was blocked and Presley fell on the ball for a touchdown for Washington. Patton kicked the goal. The Oregon team seemed stronger, and chances looked good for retalia tion in the next quarter. Bailey starred on the Oregon line, while Cornell and Walker were he roes of the back field. For Washington, Presley at cen ter, and Jacquot at half, played a great game. Second Quarter Fenton’s kick-off at the start of the second quarter was returned to the 25-yard line. Washington punted out to the center of the field, where the ball see-sawed back and forth for most of the quarter. Fenton punted 40 yards after losing 10 on a blocked punt. Young ran the ball back 15 yards and punted. Fenton’s long for ward pass was intercepted by a Wash ington back, which forced him to punt. The 35-yard kick placed the ball on the Washington 40-yard line. Hunt was caught holding, and cost his team a 15-yard penalty. Fenton was in jured when tackling Young, but -re entered the game. A beautiful forward pass with a clear field was fumbled by Hall. This same play failed three times, but a nass from Fenton to Walker netted 8 yards. A fake kick netted 10 yards. Place Kick Tried Fenton then tried a place kick from the 30-yard line. The Oregon line held perfectly, but the kick failed by two yards. Score at the end of the quarter, Washington 10; Oregon 0. Second Half Jacquot returned 20 yards on Ore gon’s kick-off, and then bucked through for 8 yards, following this up by another 8-yard gain through the line. Shiel made the first down with 4 yards. Miller went through for 12 yards, and Hunt for 8 yards. Fariss Coes In Fariss replaced McClelland at left guard at this point. Young gained 5 yards, continuing the march down the field.

Fenton punted out 25 yards from the center of the field. Miller, of Wash ington, broke through for 15 yards, and Young for 10 more, placing the ball on Oregon’s 10-yard line. Hol den replaced Grout.

UNUSUAL ARTISTIC TALENT WILL INTERPRET "CLOUDS" Hendricks Replies to Attacks of Erudite Critics With Double Jointed Diction. (Lee Hendricks.) That meritorious masterpiece of aesthetic achievement, “The Accum ulation of Nebulous Vapor,” other wise known at “The Clouds,” will be intelligently interpreted by a scintil lating constellation of coruscations, including Leland Finch, Alfred Skei, and Archibald Ferguson Reddie, in Yillard auditorium tonight. 1 he originator of this autochthonous efflorescence, one bearing the cog nomen, “Aristophanes,” seems to have comoined exceptional familiarity with the acroamatical aphorisms of drama tic art with discriminating perspicac iyt into the idiosyncrasies of diverg ent temperaments. So assidously do the erudite performers execute their prescribed functions, that, eschewing all further rhetorical peregrinations and periphrastical circumlocutions, we do not hesitate to express our pr ognostications concerning a felicitous outcome. Note—We fear that in past articles we have indulged too freely in slang, and it is with the hope of satisfying the “highbrows” that we submit the above gem of dramatic criticism.) PETITION IS GRUNTED Gamma Delta Gamma Will Receive Kappa Kappa Charter After Holidays. Kappa Kappa Gamma has granted the petition of the local sorority Gamma Delta Gamma and will install Beta Omega Chapter shortly after the Christmas vacation. The young women of the University who are now active members of the sorority are Carin Degermark, ’13, Eva Roche, ’13, Margaret Rhose, ’13, Helen Holbrook, ’13, Gladys Cart wright, ’13, Olga Poulsen, '14, Flor ence Avery, ’14, Madeline Harding, T4, Genevieve Cooper, ’15, Jessie Purdy, T6, and Gladys Graybill, T6. Gamma Delta Gamma was founded at Oregon in 1908, and is prominent in many phases of college life. Sigma Chi entertained at dinner Sunday for Mr. and Mrs. William Kuyler, Misses Grace Bingham, Jua nita Wilkins, Nora Manerude and Ma bel Manerude.

REVERSES DOPE ON WHITMAN GAME BY GAINING 200 VICTORY CHAMPIONSHIP HOPES ARE SHATTERED BY COACfl DOBIE’S MEN LUCK BRINGS LAST TWO TOUCHDOWNS Shaw Makes First Score and Larsen Duplicates Play.—Missionary Work Ragged Corvallis, Nov. 16—(Special to the Emerald, by Harold Young)-:— Luck was responsible for the last two of the Abies’ three scores, but they earned the 20 to 3 victory over Whit man this afternoon. A dive over cen ter by Quarterback Dewey and quick work by Shaw and Robinson in inter cepting forward passes from; Neils, which they turned into scores, gave the game to O. A. C. Aggies Excel in Forward Pass Careless work by Kinder in allow ing Blackwell’s punt to escape was the cause of the first score, after the teams had fought evenly for nearly two quarters. Although Whitman threatened to score in the first of the ^second half, by skillful use of the forward pass the Aggies again Iforced the ball down the field. Shaw Makes First Score Shaw, right halfback, caught a pass from Neils and ran 30 yards for a score. Later Larsen, a Corvallis sub end, did exactly the same thing: Whit man tried hard to come back, but Neils finally scored an easy drop kick. Neither team could advance contin uously, and both fumbled at critical times. The Aggies’ line spoiled play after play and opened holes forjBlack well, who starred. The defeat this afternoon definitely j shatters Whitman’s hopes of a cham pionship this year. Washington’s vic tory over Oregon, coupled with the result at Corvallis, gives that dis tinction to Washington for the(fourth consecutive time; in other words, ever since Dobie landed in Seattle. I On Friday evening, Mrs. Jos. H. Gilbert entertained with a birthday dinner party in honor of Willard Sha ver. The house was decorated with yellow chrysanthemums anti ivy green. The guests were Mrs.. M. E. Shaver, Flora Dunham, Faye Ball, Lu cille Davis, Carleton Spencer, and Charles Reynolds. CHANCES FOR NORTHWEST CHAMPIONSHIP IN BASKETBALL LOOK GOOD TO FANS (By Tommy Boylen.) With four of last year’s champion ship basketball teams in college, Ore gon’s chances for winning the North west title are good. Real varsity bas ketball will not begin until after the Christmas holidays, but the prelimin ary games of the Inter-fraternity League, accompanied with the usual class games, will make December an interesting month in this activity. Of last year's team, Captain Jami son, all-Northwest forward, is miss ing. Inasmuch as he has won North west honors for the past three years, his place will be hard to fill. The old men of the team are Cap tain Sims, Fenton, Walker, and Brad shaw. Sims has played a consistent game at guard for the past two 'ears. Fenton chosen as all-Northwest center for two seasons will be jn the game aguin. Fenton’s reputation has j been won by his wonderful jumping land ability to shoot baskets. Walker has played forward j with Jamison for the past three years. Op posing guards have found this a hard j combination to break up. Last year was Bradshaw’s first try at varsity basketball. Of the old men in college, who have not won their “O,” are several eligible candidates, who might be called upon to fill the vacant place. Among these are Briedwell, Stevenson, Brooks, Gould, and Parsons. Of the Freshmen with “Prep Rec ords,’’ the following seven are the most promising: George Bryant, Kai ser, Fee, Hampton, Bigbee, Bean, Mc Cowan, and Billings. I
