ORGANIZATION FORMED
10 FIGHT REFERENDUM
Students Unite at Mr. Brooking’s In
stance, to Assist Educational
League.
At a meeting of representatives
I from all the fraternities held at the
Phi Gamma Delta house last Tuesday
evening, an organization was formed
at the instance of Eugene Brookings
for the purpose of fighting the refer
j t-.dum on the University appropria
tion.
When here some time ago, Mr.
Brookings, a Portland lawyer, ad
dressed the Assembly, telling of the
efforts now being made over the state
to secure the legislature’s appropria
tion and of the opposition being met
with through the referendum petitions
just lately filed.
For the purpose of better co-opera
tion between the students and the
friends of the University, Mr. Brook
ings suggested the forming of an or
ganization on the campus to assist the
outside efforts in securing the appro
priation.
Carl Greyson was elected president
and Henry Fowler, secretary of the
organization. Membership is unlim
ited and may include any student.
During the summer it is proposed that
each student in his home town, di
rect, wherever possible, a publicity
campaign for the University.
A. Iso next fall, before the November
election, there will be much work to
be done.

Mary Spiller Hall entertained Uni
versity and town women to a formal
reception this afternoon. One hundred
seventy-five invitations were issued.

roses and snowballs and was very at
tractive. In the receiving line were
Mesdames P. L. Campbell, A. E. S.
Stearns, Ellen Campbell, L. H. John
son, and Misses Ruth Guppy and Min
nie Holman. Lucille Marshall and
Minnie Poley received the guests at
the door. Jeannette Parks and Betsy
Wooten, assisted by the other girls
of the hall, served the ice.
Mrs. Arthur J. Collier gave a tea
for the fraternity women at her home
on Patterson street, Wednesday after
noon. The hall was prettily decor
ated with lupine, and California pop
pies, formed the dining room decora
tions. Little Grace Collier, assisted
by Mrs. William Smith and Mrs. R. C.
Clark, received. Mrs. N. D. Leonard
served ice and Mrs. Ida A. Powell
served coffee.
The woes of the society editor have
begun to assert themselves. The
week-end, except for picnics and ca
noeing parties, has been almost de
void of social affairs.
With final exams only a week away,
people seem determined to get their
share of fun before the last week of
hard work.
Phi Gamma Delta house gave a pic
nic yesterday. Eighteen of the men
and their friends went on a hayrack
about ten miles up the Willamette
river. The party started at 8:30 in
the morning and returned last night.
Mrs. Lenora Currier chaperoned the
party.
Lloyd Christie and Ployd Dodge, of
the California Chapter of Phi Delta
Theta, were at the Phi Delt house
here last night and left this morning
for Portland. The two men left Berke
ley a week ago yesterday and are
touring the Northwest in a machine.

Looking forward to next year’s
team, there is a bright view. But two
men are lost to the squad by gradua
tion, Mount and Chandler. Of course,
their loss will be keenly felt. Chand
ler has led the club in hitting for
three years, and is acknowledged to
be the fastest man on the paths that
has played in the Conference during
his time. His fighting pep and leader
ship this year have entitled him to a
championship team. Mount, his side
kicker in the outfield, is a centerfielder

of the first water. It’s like dropping:
a ball into the Willamette to drive
one in his direction. “Beany” has
fallen down at the stick this year, but
Oregon will have a hard time filling
his shoes in his garden.
Infield to Be Intact.
The infield remains intact and is a
“gooder.” Fenton need have no wor
ry in that direction, for with this gal
axy and the pick of some prep mater
ial that has been drafted, he should
be able to build up a front-yard that
will be a big-leaguer. Add this to
Welch and Company, if the Company
can be reorganized and placed on a
producing basis, and Oregon will be
the aggregation that will have to be
reckoned with in the struggle for the
cheese-cloth.
Too much credit can not be given
Mr. Ayer and Chandler for the scrap
py fight that the team has put up this
year. To begin with they had but a
recruit collection to build around four
vets, and inclement weather made this
building a difficult task. They stuck
by it, pounded in the fine points and
worked like Trojans to counteract the
rain jinx. It was remarkable the suc
cess that awarded their endeavors, for
logically they should have had the
championship after the running start
that they got over the other colleges.
One more pitcher and a break of fair
luck would have done the work.
But that is. past and gone and post
mortems are of no particular avail.
We ean but smile at the prospects for
the year on deck and wish Carl Fen
ton a winner. Prosit!
