Rod and croon, purple and white, deep
yellow, light pink and true blue, gold and
purple, green and white these jangling
scrapping color schemes will glare from
the gym sails of the interfraternity bas
ketball players. This color crime was
perpetrated at a meting of the interfra
ternity athletic association Tuesday even
ing when the executive board of this
body met to complete arrangements for
the doughnut basketball tournament.
A representative of Spalding and com
pany displayed a conglomeration and as
sortment of jerseys and socks of all the
shades and colors commonly found in a
crazy tiuilt. while the members of the
board mismatched colors for their teams
to wear. The jerseys will be dyed with
the first color of any combination, strip
ed around the diaphragm with a broad
band of the second. The socks will be
hued in the same manner.
The object of this confliction of colors
is that it will enable the players to dis
tinguish the members of the different
teams. The colors are supposed to be
fast without running; that is, they won’t
fade.
The schedule of the doughnut league
wiU be run off regardless as to which
way the faculty may decide on intercolle
giate basketball. The ruling of the board
concerning the eligibility of members of
last year’s squad to play on the various
teams will be delayed until after the de
cision of the faculty has been reached on
the intercollegiate question.
The standing of the teams this year
will be reckoned from a percentage ba
sis. Last year the games were played
by elimination.
The practice hours allotted to the
various organizations have been posted
during which the gymnasium will be held
for the exclusive use of the practicing
team.
Bernard Breeding, president of the
board, urges every team to begin prac
tice at once as the games may be played
sooner than expected. Bill Hayward and
Coach Bezdek have consented to offer
their services as coaches if any of the
teams feel the need of coaching.
PRO-ALLY LITERATURE
DUE TO ENGLISH WRITING
“The fact that a greater amount of
pro-ally literature is to be found in the
library than that of the opposing bellig
erent nations is due, not to any partial
ity but to the preponderance of books
written in the English language which
reach this country.”
M. H. Douglass, University librarian,
expressed this opinion in sneaking of a
recent criticism that the amount of war
literature in the library showed a mark
ed tendency in favor of the allies.
“It is the policy of the library man
agement to leave the selection of all
books relating to the present war up to
the history department.
“The history department in making the
selections lias attempted to secure every
important book of value from a histor
ical, not a military, point of view, re
garless of the nationality or prejudices
of the author.
“If any book which we have not se
cured is desired by any student, he may
make his want known to the history de
partment and if the work is of sufficient
value it will be obtained.”
Mr. Douglass states that many pro
ally books and tracts are sent to the
library as gifts from the authors, and
these are placed on the shelves along
with the regular accessions. He says
that with the opening of the war, the
library added additional Austrian and
German periodicals and newspapers.
These have been received very irregu
larly.
Professor J. P. O’Hara of the history
department, says that there would be
more Austrian and German books in the
library dealing with the war if there was
any demand for them. Only a certain
percent of the books written in those
countries are translated into English,
and very few students ever read the
books printed in German, or any other
foreign language, unless the work is es
pecially assigned by instructors.
f PRESS NOTES 1
■k -.- ★
The first performance in this city of
Jean Webster’s famous play, “Daddy
Long-Legs,” will be given at the Eu
! gene theatre. The demand for seats
i has been insistent since the coining of
| the fascinating comedy was first an
il nounced, and although there is still a
i selection of good seats to be obtained
| at the box office, the manager strongly
| urges his regular patrons not to incur
: an unnecessary risk by waiting until the
1 last minute to make purcha,es. It is
now practically certain that tonight’s au
dience will be the biggest of the season
anil batrons .who postpone making res
ervations this °aftejnoon may be disap
pointed this evening. la this connection,
the management requests, as °a special
favor, that those who have reserved
tickets and have not already called for
l them, do so before 6 o’clock, there is
! danger of congestion in the theatre lob
! by at 8:15. Moreover, it would be man
ifestly unfair to today’s applicants for
seats if good reservations that have been
held several days should be cancelled at
| the “eleventh hour.” This warning is
I important, because apparently every
theatre-goer in the city is determined to
.sec “Daddy Long Legs” Monday night.
