Between 50 and 60 students in the present Senior class have the required training to be recommended to the schools of Oregon as instructors, ac cording to Professor F. C. Ayer, head of the Department of Education. This includes fifteen hours in Education, and a semtster of practice teaching. Thirty-six of these have handed in their names, with the subjects they are qualified to teach, for recommend ation. Recommendations will be made to the positions open in the schools, as those instructors in the subjects the applicant wishes to teach, think the student fit. Department Recommends Students. The students are first acquainted by the department with the positions open in their favorite subjects, and then they fill out application blanks and mail to those schools where they would like to teach. They can either have the recommendations sent with the application or wait for the school to write to the department for them. A photograph of the applicant is sent each time with the recommendations. The student does not see his recom mendations; they come from the in structors and are sent separate from the application. The instructors only recommend those who come up to a certain standard. On the Appointment Committee, which has charge of securing posi tions for the students who wish to teach are Professor F. C. Ayer, chair man; Dr. Joseph Schafer, Dr. W. P. Boynton, Professor E. A. Thurber, Dr. F. G. Schmidt, Professor E. E. DeCou, and Professor F. S. Dunn. The list of those students who are prospective teachers for next year was given out this morning by Registrar Tiffany. He said concerning them: “We have a fine lot of teachers to send out to the schools this year. The list contains most of them, though it may not be complete.” List of Senior Teachers.

The Richmond Tobacco Company does not understand the ways of the Western Co-ed. So it would appear, at least, for last week they sent to each of the national sororities at the Uni versity three packages of Gold Tipped, Perfumed Cigarettes, guaran teed a cool smoke and not to bite the tongue. With the cigarettes came a letter, hoping that they would give the en closed package a fair trial, and if sat isfied, place an order with the firm in the future. According to the young ladies, the packages remain unopened. One of the girls has suggested the novel plan of supplying the masculine visitors with the “makins” in tjhese -‘gold tipped” boxes to supplant the trusty “Bull Durham” brand that stains the finger tips.

Miss Carin Degermark, ’13, leaves Sunday for the State Normal at Mon mouth to accept a position as Physical Director of Women, a position that carries with it much responsibility, for besides having the training of three hundred girls in her charge, Miss Degermark is also supervisor of physical training work in the Train ing Department and will teach two classes in physiology and hygiene. Last week, Superintendent A. J. Ackerman, of the Monmouth Normal, DIRECTOR PHYSICAL EDUCATION MONMOUTH NORMAL SCHOOL l ann Uegermark, 13. visited Eugene in quest of a physical director and he was so pleased with the work of Miss Degermark, that he immediately offered her the position. Miss Degermark leaves the Uni versity with an exceptional record. Though she had majored in the phy sical culture department, she has stu died extensively in English and Eco nomics and in three years and a half has completed a four year course. She expects to return in June to grad uate with her class. Three years ago Miss Degermark led the first Co-ed debating team against the University of Washington at Seattle.

Oregon has held this twice in the last three years, doing so two years ago when Motschenbacher and Collier went to California. Previous to this year the tri-angular debate has been of Northwest scope, and this is the first Stanford-Oregon Washington debate. Last night’s vic tories are a decided emphasis to Ore gon’s supremacy in forensics, held for many years. In Seattle last evening,1 Washington won from Stanford in a two to one decision, giving them sec ond place in the contest. Seventh Victory over Washington. Oregon won the fourteenth annual debate with the University of Wash ington, in Villard Hall last evening. The Oregon affirmative team, com posed of David Pickett and Vernon Motschenbacher, supported the propo sition: “Resolved, That Immigration to the United States of Unskilled La borers of the Slavonic, Italic, and Hellenic Races of Eastern and South eastern Europe Should be Prohibited.” Washington’s negative team was com posed of Arthur Younger, and Vin cent Roberts. The program was opened by the Oregon Glee Club Quartette, Messrs. Fortmiller, Jerard, Grady, and Stan nard, who sang a medley of ultra popular airs. The Hon. Allen H. Eaton, chairman of the evening, then announced the terms of the contest and introduced the speakers. Washington Sidesteps Issue. Motschenbacher opened the debate for Oregon, introducing the affirma tive’s interpretation of the question and outlining their constructive argu ment, Oregon’s campaign was based on the indictment of the unskilled im migrant laborer, that his willingness to accept what is regarded by citizens as an intolerable living wage, tends to hold down the wage-standard in every ■ommunity in which he is a factor. While Washington’s defence was nasterly and ingenious, they failed to successfully combat the sweeping in dictment against present wage condi tions and its contributing causes. Their counter-proposal of an illiteracy test for immigrants was cleverly blocked in the closing rebuttal of the affirmative, and Pickett, who closed the debate, based the case of his team (Continued on last page.)

THESW PLEASE OK BARNSTORMING TOUR Neddie's Dramatic Class Plays “Serv ant in the House” to Big Cottage Grove Crowd. Professor Neddie’s class in Dra matic Interpretation returned Friday morning, at 2:30, to Eugene, after a successful staging of the play, “’fhe Servant in the House,” at the Cottage Grove theatre Thursday evening, and reported that they were well satisfied over the manner in which they were received there. An appreciative audience of two hundred and fifty people witnessed the performance and everyone of the re served seats were sold. Carleton Spencer, who lives fn Cottage Grove, and who managed the trip, reports that enough money was made to de fray all expenses and that the people were pleased with the work of the | caste. The members who made the trip were Professor Reddie, Carleton Spencer, Janet Young, Alexander Martin, Elmer Spencer, Hilda Brant, Alfred Skei, and Walter Dimm. This is the first production of the Dramatic Interpretation class to be j staged out of town, and the fact that it was well received may result in more extensive trips later on. -* ..»»■ ■' I - AND MILLER PUT HIS COAT BACK ON—BUT III THE MEANTIME.

I FOOTBALL TRAINER WHO TURN ED OUT CHAMPIONSHIP TEAM HERE IN 1906, SECURED WILL ALSO COACH BASEBALL Former Chicago Star, Now Arkansas Athletic Director, Engaged at $2,000 Salary. Hugo Bezdeck, coach of the varsity football team in 1906, and at present director of athletics at the University of Arkansas, was elected football coach for two years at the meeting of the Athletic Council, Thursday night. The agreement calls for the payment of two thousand dollars out of the gate receipts of the football games, to Mr. Bezdeck for his services during the college year as football and base ball coach. The regents of the Uni versity may employ him in some reg ular branch of college work during the time that he is not engaged in coaching. The election of Bezdeck comes as a compromize choice after four months of argument in the Athletic Ceuncil. At least ten different candidates have been considered durin gthe discus sions. Is Graduate of Chicago. Hugo Bezdeck is a graduate of the University of Chicago in the class of 1907. He was star fullback on coach Stagg’s team during the '0^, 1)3, ’04, and ’05 seasons. Bezdeck was chosen on the All-Western team as defensive end and was placed on the second All American team by Walter Camp. He is considered one of the greatest backs ever produced in the Middle West. In 1906, while still an undergrad uate, he coached the varsity. He re turned to Chicago in the spring of 1907, and received his degree. Since 1907, Bezdeck has been director of ath letics at the University of Arkansas, where he has been successful in turn ing- out winning teams. While at Arkansas, he has been in strumental in having a new athletic field constructed and a large grand stand erected. Bezdeck Likes Oregon. The climatic conditions and former pleasant associations at the Univer sity of Oregon are given by Bezdeck as reasons for his decision to leave his present position with the University of Arkansas. “We have looked over the field for weeks,” said Captain Bob Bradshaw today, “and Bezdeck is the best foot ball man that we could find. In 1906, he came out to Oregon from the Uni versity of Chicago. Staggs sent him out to make good. Bezdeck came to Oregon entirely new to the conditions here, and that same yea,r secured the championship of the Northwest and had seven of his men placed on the All-Northwest team. With such a coach, we have the brightest prospects for next year that, I think, we have ever had. “'I'he material already here is crack er-jack and I know of a good many fellows that are anxious to come in next year and train under him. “Bezdeck will more than likely come out to Oregon in the summer to look over the prospects.” William Ryan and Carl Grayson have gone to Portland for a few days. Chet Moores, ’12, is back again on the campus for a few days. Miss Eve Stinson is seriously ill with appendicitis.
