Although Crack Jefferson High Team
Will Come for $30, Whole Stu
dent Body Must Act On It
No soccer game will be played on
Kincaid Field tomorrow afternoon be
tween the crack Jefferson High School
team, of Portland, and the University
of Oregon eleven. A telegram senj
to the Jefferson coach on Wednesday
evening read: “Unforeseen difficulties
force us to cancel Saturday game.
The “unforeseen difficulties’’ were
really just one difficulty: the state
ment by the Executive Committee of
the Student Council that soccer had
never been formally accepted by e
Student Body as a regular activity,
and that therefore under the constitu
tion no guarantee could be made o
tHHiervuu* . ^
A majority of the Executive Com
mittee believed the Student Body
would authorize the game because of
the smallness of the guarantee in
volved. So eager was Jefferson to get
at the University team that its ath
letic association voted to pay all the
expenses of 13 men to Eugene, except
$30.00, and let Oregon keep all the
gate receipts. The high school boys
wanted the prestige of meeting a uni
versity team. The deficit from the
game would therefore have been tri
fling if there were any at all.
No Student Body' meeting will be
held until February 24, however, and
the Executive Committee said it did
not dare assume responsibility for the
game without specific authorization.
To prevent a similar fiasco in future,
the status of soccer will probably be
presented to the students at this meet
ing. The players contend that soccer
everywhere pays its own way, that it
was supported by the Student Body
last year, and although a new sport
on the campus, sustained only $35.00
deficit on the season, that in future
years it would be a money maker, and
that they have practiced faithfully
since September ip anticipation of
games. They have asked for three
games, one in Portland, two in Eu
gene.

“Jeanette’s Way” Selected by Com
mittee. Dramatic Club Will Give
“Within the Law”
“Jeanette’s Way,” a play whose
setting is on a college campus, has
been selected by the committee as the
Senior Play to be given April 2. This
same production was given last year
by one of the classes at the Univer
sity of California, and was a marked
success. The play has not yet ar
rived, but the parts will be assigned
as soon as it is on hand.
The Dramatic Club will present
“Within the Law,” if the play can be
secured.
FACULTY REINSTATES 17 OF
THE 25 FLUNKED STUDENTS
The Freshman class has forfeited
the oyster supper promised by Dean
Straub.
“Boys,” he said, at the Freshman
Mix last semester, “to the first Fresh
man class that goes through the yeaer,
without losing a member becausd of
grades, I’ll give an oyster supper—
that is, if President Campbell will pay
for it.”
However, according to the list of
flunkers made out at the Registrar’s
office, there are fewer Freshmen leav
ing than usual. This must mean that
better work is being done by the stu
dents, for the scholastic standard has
been raised, which should tend to in
crease the number of flunkers.
As the list now stands, 17 students
are forced to go. Originally the li3t
contained 25 names, but at the request
of the reinstatement committee, the
faculty finally reinstated eight.
