These students are debarred from participating in any college activity during the rest of the year and must bring all their work up to a passing mark.

PARSONS ADDRESSES SOPHOMORES IN MEETING Few in Class Who Have Reac Shaw and Wells Shows Deplorable Condition Only one Sophomore out of ever} ten in the University has read works of Bernard Shaw and H. G. Wells except when taken under literatur* courses, was the result of a vot« taken of the class by Mrs. E. S Parsons, dean of Sophomore women at the 1914 class meeting yesterda) morning. Mrs. Parsons was addressing th< class on the deplorable lack of in tellectual life in the United States and to show the truth of her asser tion of those, who for pleasure alone had perused the works of Shaw and Wells, asked for a show of hands DThe result was the overwhelming negative vote. Mrs. Parsons asked the class tc take the lead in raising the intellec tual standards of the University. Sh« also suggested that the class could perform a great service by reviv ing the defunct Oregon Monthly. Prof. John Bovard, dean of the Sophomore men, made a few re marks, commending the class on the excellent manner in which the Sopho more hop was conducted. An appeal to all debaters and would-be 'debaters, to enter the try outs for the Sophomore team whicli will come within the next few weeks was made by Allen O’Connell, chair man of the debate committee.

AND WILLAMETTE ST. JAY MeCORMICll I M. A. A. C. MUST ENGAGE COACH HIGH STANDARD OF CLUB MAKES ALTERATIONS NECESSARY MAY PLAY WASHINGTON Games With Four Conference Teams Will Probably Be Scheduled, According to Manager Scott. In spite of the showing made by the M. A. A. C. football team in the season just past, there is a feeling among the Portland athletes that in order to cope with any degree of suc cess with the northwest college teams during the 1914 season, something more than the present hit or miss system of self instruction now in vogue will be necessary. In the “Winged M’ Bulletin,” the official publication of the Multnomah club, IS. P, Stott, manager of the 1913 ag gregation, says: ‘‘With five or six big games in prospect for 1914, one of the very im portant things officials of the Mult nomah Club should consider, in my opinion, is the advisability of engag ing the services of a capable football coach. "True enough, we got along very well this year under our present sys tem. With players of all-around ex perience working without a coach may result in preparation for one or ! perhaps two big games. But with at least five, and perhaps six games with the large colleges of the North west assured for next season, 1 do not think this plan wiil do at all. ,“The football men need a leader who can devote nearly all of his time to studying his men,—their strength as well as their weakness. Then, too, if our team is to carry the club colors to the front, it must be ready to take instant advantage of the other team’s weaknesses and be prepared for their strong plays. “This is instruction that cannot be given by one who is trying to earn nis living in a way other than by coaching a football team, because he cannot give the necessary time and attention to it. “It seems to me that if the Mult nomah Club is going to maintain its past and present position in Pacific Coast football, some* such system as that 1 have suggested, based on the employment of a coach, must be adopted. Many of the members do not know that ours is the only ath letic club in the United Sttates today that plays football or a par with the college teams of itr vicinity. We can go a little further and say that our teams have been and now are, better and stronger than any of the club teams in the Northwest. “From present conditions, games for 1914 will be scheduled between the Multnomah football team and al least four teams of the Northwest Conference, including die University of Washington. Graduate Manager Horr, of Washington, assured the writer that he would do all in his | power to bring about such a game next year. There is no legitimate reason why it should be refused us. Our team this year played as clean, if not cleaner football as any team in the conference. “Coach Bender, of Washington State College remarked publicly that Multnomah played his team the cleanest game in which Pullman took part this year.” HAS RECORD FOR MILEAGE Notre Dame Football Team Covered 5000 Miles This Season. The University of Notre Dame football teams claims to be in a class by itself in matter of mileage trav : eled. On November 1 it went east to beat the army at West Point, went home and then returned east to defeat Penn State at State Col lege, Pa., six days later. The team played in St. Louis Saturday and ■ wfent to Austin, Texas, to meet the I University of Texas, southern cham I pions. Without including numerous short trips, it is estimated the team covered a total of nearly 5,000 miles thla season. EMPLOYMENT BUREAU AIDS 39 POSITIONS AND 56 ODD JOBS FOUND FOR STUDENTS Y. M. WORK PRAISEWORTHY Association Now Trying Hard to Find Employment for Dozen Men Who Need Financial1 Help to Stay in College. I 1 With fully ;i dozen men on the waiting bench, the U. of O. Y. M. C. A. Employment Bureau is sending out an S. O. S. call for jobs, either j odd or regular, for many of those | waiting feel that unless work is se cured tlmir days at the Univeristy are numbered. According to Charles Koyl work is more scarce and more ! men are applying than ever before. Up to date 39 regular jobs and 56 odd jobs have been secured for ap plicants. The value of the regular work to date totals $88 5 and the odd $126 or a total of $1011. Besides this, aid has been given the students through the Book Exchange, as $250.65 has hern turned over in cash for books sold. This has saved the j buyers $75. There is a demand at the Exchange now for books, which can not be filled. Koyl said that he had found in mixing with people in various parts of the state that the impression pre rails that no work is to be obtained at the University and the students are of a class who do not work. This has caused a prejudice to arise which has been detrimental to the good of the University. Last year 51 per cent of the stu dents were working their way, and this year that percentage is higher. Twenty-seven fraternity men worked their way through entirely last year ind the same number partly. This number has increased this year. While work at present is scarce the prospects are, according to Koyl, that things will loosen up and spring coming on will make work for all, so there is no need for those students waiting to feel discouraged and for those outside to be deterred any longer from enrolling at the Univer sity.

Students at Stanford have started an agitation for the revival of the Plug I'gl.v which has been famous at : the California institution in years past. The Stanford Daily Palo Alto ] "Rejuvenate the Plug l gly. This is the task which has been given over to a special committee from the I'ni versity Conference. Officially the ! Plug Pgly is dead. Put, like Ham- i let’s ghost, it tarries behind. Re- , construction along entirely different! lines is a necessity. This is self-evi dent. Various plans have been ten tatively suggested to take the place at' the old poster, show and rush. Most of them have been merely sub stitutes for thought, and when con sidered carefully, have keen found wanting. One of flic most feasible plans offered is to omit the show which belied the name, and stage the rush on the football turf. The two upper classes would be lined up on Die opposite sides of the field. The Juniors at a given signal would at tempt to break through the Senior’s lines and distribute their posters - the latter being in charge of a com mittee from the Student Council up to tlie time of the rush among the people on the bleachers. Once through the Senior's defense, the Juniors are to be allowed to spread their posters without opposition. This scheme proposes to allow a proper expurgation of the poster to be made; will do away with the farce, and in placing the rush Inside the football field allow the Juniors ro derive the revenue which they now get from the show inside the track aval.
