COUNTRY CLUB MAY ABSORB GOLF LINKS Club House to be Erected—Tennis and Folo May Also be Added to Outdoor Sports. ' Eugene will have one of the best and most complete golf courses in the state if the plans of the Eugene busi ness men materialize. Several of the influential men of the city, who are interested in golf and tennis, met recently and formed an organization to promote outdoor sports. It is the intention of the members to get con-' trol of the College Hill links and to! locate a Country Club upon the property. It is planned to not only put the links in first class condition, | but also to build a modern club house, j where players may rest and have re freshments served. Tennis courts will be built and when the club is well under way, it is stated that some of the more interested members have planned to introduce polo to Eugene. Committees have been appointed and j will report at the next meeting to be held a week from tonight. Webb Kincaid, secretary of the new club, when seen today, said: “Eugene should be able to support a Country Club and a few of us have decided to promote such a scheme. So far we have been most successful in our en terprise and now have a membership of nearly 150. It is our plan to form a corporation and take over control of the links, which will be put in the best possible shape. I expect to be able to announce soon more complete de tails of the organization.” At present, by the management of Fen Waite, who has been reviving the interest in golf among the varsity de votees, the links have been put in bet ter shape than for several years. The weeds have been removed from the greens and in addition a strip 50 yards wide has been mowed between the holes. If enough students pay the fifty cents golf dues, the greens will be sanded immediately to help lower the score of championship aspirants. In case the Country Club takes over the links a higher membership fee will be charged, but all those who join the varsity club will be entitled to the use of the grounds for the 1912-1013 season. JOURNALISTS WATCHING SCHOOL OF JOURNALISM (Continued from First Page.) time to report for the Omaha Bee and the Des Moines Capital, and do some post graduate work at Columbia Uni versity. Oregon Watched by Nation. This newspaperman is enthusiastic over the work undertaken by the Uni versity Department of Journalism. He says: “Journalists all over the United States are watching the work of the University of Oregon School of Jour nalism. Newspapermen the world over realize that the work of men entering the profession may be greatly simpli fied and just such training as Profes sor Allen is giving here in Eugene im presses me as the ideal schooling for the embryo reporter and editor. “Journalism is rapidly emerging from its dark age and taking a high place in the professional world. It is no longer a dump for men who fail elsewhere. The public is demanding more than ever of newspapers, and the University of Oregon is worthy of commendation for its effort to aid the newspaper fraternity in recruiting bet ter prepared men and men who will enter the field with the proper ideals.” Y. M. Raises $187. The Y. M. C. A. finance campaign clock on the Dormitory stood at $187 this noon, although there remained yet to be canvassed the Avava Club, and the unorganized outside students. When the campaign closes tonight, it is estimated that over $200 will have been raised. Library Closes Upon Thanksgiving.

(By Tommy Boylen.) The basketball season of the Uni versity of Oregon will be ushered in immediately after the Thanksgiving recess. The great number of inter class and inter-fraternity games, cou pled with the Varsity try-outs, will give the fans a profusion of entertain ment. The announcement of the schedule of the inter-class contests for the pos session of the Hayward cup will be announced at an early date. In all probability these will be staged before the inter-fraternity games or be mixed with them. At present the cup is held by the class of 1914. The prospects of the Juniors retaining the trophy are none too bright, for they will be playing with three of their old stars gone from the line up. Bradshaw is in eligible (for the inter-class games) because of his place on the varsity, while Cady Roberts and Viereck are not in college this year. The weak ening of the Juniors will give the class of 1915 a good chance for the championship, they having finished second in the series last year. The first inter-fraternity game will be played on Friday, December 6, be tween Alpha Tau Omega and Sigma Nu. Coach Hayward announces that be cause of a prospective California trip the Varsity squad will be selected and put into shape before the Christ mas holidays. ALBANY'SsilATCH ED GEARY’S ACTIONS Presiding at Ticket Booth, Oregon Student is Dogged by Small Town Sherlock Edward Geary, a student of the University, was one man in Albany last Saturday whose actions were closely watched by an officer of the law. In fact, Geary had the honor of being the only Eugene notable with a body guard for the great occasion. It happened this way: Bei t Pilkington, graduate manager of the Agricultural College, knowing of Geary’s ability, begged him to as sist in selling tickets for the game. Mr. Pilkington insisted and offered such an exceptional reimbursement for his services, that when the crowd began to arrive Geary was to be found before the main entrance deal ing out the little pasteboards. A few special officers on the ground were ordered to report to the Grad uate Manager for orders. However, one of the newly made officers was in structed to this effect: "Watch that ticket seller.” This officer was a conscientious man. He evidently had not learned of crowds, of pickpockets, short change artists and other accessories, for not once did he direct his attention to the howling multitude, but watched the ticket seller as directed. When the rush was over, Geary closed his place of business, took his sack of money, and went into the grandstand to watch the game. The officer accompanied him. Geary saw a lady friend in the audience. He went up to talk to her, and the offi cer was still onto his job. By this time Geary had formed his opinion of “small town cops.” The game was over, the ticket sell er and policemen retired to the bank together, and the officer was still present when the vault was closed upon the precious coin. His supposed duties over, the officer immediately made application for his pay. “How did you make it?” asked Mr. Pilkington. “Well,” the officer re plied. “I watched him pretty close, and I don’t think he got a cent on you.” Dartmouth has not crossed Har vard's goal since 1908, but has scored twice since on goals from the field. The appearance of Neil Snow as umpire of the Yale-Princeton game marked the first time that a West ern player has held an official posi tion in a big Eastern game. Diagram o' Plays in Oregon-O. A. C.
