TWO NEW COMMERCE IUNGED Municipal Business Ad ministratiotrwRH|Mlvancements Over Former'Courses Professor Don Sowers, of the School of Commerce, announces the forma tion of two new courses for the com ing semester, open only to Juniors and Seniors. Both will be continua tions of the lines of study taken up in two of the present courses: Busi ness Administration being an ad vancement on the present Cost Ac counting, and Municipal Finance, on Alunicipal Administration. r “Next year,” said Professor Sow ers, “high school bookkeeping will be a prerequisite to registration ^n the Accounting Principles. There will be a ijew class in Advanced Accounting, and “probably an additional instructor in the department. “Then, too, we are intending to work out a means whereby students will be able to secure positions in this line of work at least during the sum mer. There are at present 100 students enrolled in the Principles of Account ing classes.

From data collected during the last two years, it is found that from one fourth to one-third of, the students at the University of Maine are depen dent solely on their own efforts for the money necessary to cover their T college expenses. CO- EDS TO HOLD RALLY _ | Women’s League to Superintend Man ufacture of Pep Tomorrow Af ternoon from 4:00 until 6:00 A women’s rally, under the manage, j ment of the Women's League, is ex pected to bring out every co-ed to morrow afternoon between 4:00 and i 6J00. The purpose is to generate “pep” among the other half of the Student Body, and every woman is expected to attend. Tomorrow’s rally will be a dupli cation of the men’s smoker, minus the smoke, and possibly one or two other features which are common to masculine affairs of this nature. Stunts, refreshments and dancing will be included in the entertainment. o i , , ******** * * * * DRIBBLES AND SPIKES By Rex Kay. ° * ♦ * * * * * * * o * I Judging from all the reports sent out from the conference teams, Ore gon will be lighter than any of the others by several pounds to the man. i Dobie is now enjoying a little lei-i sure and law practice, with some golf, j et cetera, thrown in, but he has 3,000 perfectly good “one-spots” down in his jeans. * * The Salem team thought that is was certainly going to beat the Univer sity, or it never would have invited Bezdek to that basketball party, espe cially under intercollegiate rules. j Dudley and Brownell are having some race for the center job. At any rate Coach Bezdek is not the only one to worry. All conference teams, with the exception of Washington, are cry ing for centers. Soccer is considered one of the big sports at many Eastern colleges. The “Columbia Spectator” frequently gives, more than one column on the front page to soccer, and in the same issue less than a quarter page to basket ball. ' Washington State continues to carry on practice games with the “Almira Club,” a little sign board and whistle station in the Big Bend Country. So far W. S. C. has won every game. They feel that the U. of W. has no cinch on things. Bill Hayward and Jim Corbett are old friends. When the two met here in Eugene the other day, those who know say that it was hard to tell which showed the most pleasure. But they do know which way the wind was blowing. “Tony” Savage, center on the U. of W. basketball team, is looked upon as the best student player the Uni versity ever had. Tony is coach, man ager, trainer, and the mainstay of the team. A recent article in the “Wash ington Daily” handed him more than this. We hear that the girls play some really exciting games of basketball. At least, it sounds exciting to one who happens within three or four blocks of the Girls’ Gym on a prac tice night, and that is as much as we ever learn of the work in their athletic department. President Craighead, of the Univer sity of Montana, is in right with his student body. The first time President Craighead addressed the student body aftet taking his position at the Uni versity, he praised her football team and said that to it is due the fact that Montana is now “on the map.” And we all agree with him. The following item, taken from the “Illini,” makes the Oregon mill-race stunt of last year look tame: “I don’t feel any the worse, and I did “ot get many scratches,” said Miss Clara Pause, 17-year-old Fresh man at the University, after taking a Christmas swim at Wilson Beach, Chicago, in water filled with float i ing ice.” «•*«*•** ****# * FROSH, ATTENTION * * _ # * All candidates for Freshman * * basketball teem report at Gym * i * every afternoon at 3:00 P.

KENNETH LATOURETTE TO SPEAK AT VESPER SERVICES Dr. Kenneth Latourette, a Yale graduate, who for several years was in the Yale Mission in Chancha, Chi na, and is now Professor in the Eng lish department of Reed College, in Portland, will speak on “The Influ ence of Christianity on the Forma tion of the New China,’’ at. the spe cial Vesper service next Sunday. Dr. Latourette is a cousin of “Sap” Latourette, Oregon football captain in 1911. This meeting will be open to all. Tuesday evening at 7:00 Dr. Latou rette will speak to men only on the “American College Man’s Part in the New China.” He will be on the cam pus Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, and will hold conferences with all who are interested in foreign mission work. STUDENTS ATTEND M. E. CHURCH TO HEAR BOYNTON More than 50 students of thg Uni versity attended Prof. W, °P. Boyn ton’s lecture at the Methodist Epis copal church Sunday morning. The lecture was given in connection with Prof. A. R. Sweetser’s Sunday School class, which is making a study of the “Bible of Nature,” which Professor Sweetser asserts does not conflict with the Holy Bible. Professor Boynton’s lecture was on the life and work of Joseph LeConte, scientist and geologist, who up to five years ago was Professor of Geology in the University of California. Le Conte was a strong believer in the the ory of evolution and was personally acquainted with Professor Condon, for merly of the University of Oregon. Next Sunday Miss Mary Watson, of the English Department, will give an account of the life and work of John Muir, for whom the Muir glacier ip Alaska is named. These lectures are accompanied by stereopticon slides. TEACHER’S ENGLISH CLASS ATTRACTS ATTENTION Miss Ida V. Turney’s course, “Eng lish for Teachers,” given through the Extension Department, is attracting attention from the county and city superintendents throughout the ktate, according to reports from outside. The enrollment, which has increased 75 per cent, includes 11 of the Eu gene public school teachers, for whom Miss Turney conducts a local class. In connection with this class, an experiment in elementary school Eng lish is being tried out at the Lincoln School of this city. At the recent meeting of the Northwest Teachers’ Association, Principal P. M. Corum, of the Lincoln School, presented an exhibit of English work done under the supervision of Miss Turney. Results of this experiment are al ready to be seen. One of hlr eighth grade pupils has written a little Christmas play for children. The play is considered so good that it is now being published. The teachers, also, according to Miss Turney, are doing very meritorious work. COMMITTEE ON FjcESHMAN DANCE IS AT WORK Work on the Freshman dance is being started by the committees re cently appointed by President Kent Wilson. At a meeting of the gen eral committee Monday afternoon, the situation was talked over and direc tions were given for the preliminary work. This preliminary work consists of interesting all the Frosh to a degree productive of suggestions. The dance will be held on Saturday evening, February 13, just one week after the end of the semester, and will be the first college affair aifter the examination grind. Any plans being formed or any .suggestions considered are being kept totally secret by those in charge. HOLT RESIGNS AS HEAD OF Y. M. C. A. FINANCES William P. Holt, who for the past ten months has been chairman of the finance department of the Univer sity Y. M. C. A., tendered his resig nation at the weekly meeting of the Association Cabinet yesterday.
