New Eligibility Rules Made Lately. The first regular baseball games of the "Doughnut” league will be played the week after spring vacation. According to Roger Jayne of the schedule commit tee appointed at a meeting of the inter fraternity athletic council held Thurs day evening, this arrangement will end the games about junior week-end. The other members of the schedule commit tee are Jack Elliott, chairman, and Ern est Watkins. An invitation will be extended to the faculty to enter a team. If ithey accept* there will be 12 teams playing; faculty, A. T. O., Sigma Nu, Beta, Kappa Sigma, Delta Tau, Oregon Club, Sigirna Chi, Fi ji, Iota Chi, Dorm and Phi Delt. The games will be divided into two elimina tion series and then a round-robin will be played by the three teams still in the running. The games of the elimination series will be five innings in length, those of the round-robin, seven innings. All the games will be played on the old varsity diamond and will start at 5:30. The league hopes to be abli; to secure the services of two members of the fac ulty as umpires. Varsity Men Can Play. According to a ruling made Thursday evening, pll men out for varsity pitchers will be able to play in the '‘Doughnut” games if they play some other position besides that of pitcher, and also provid ed that Coach Bezdek is willing. Men affected by this ruling are Itathbun, Bullock, Furney, Beckett, Nelson, Ken non, Knighton and Tuerck. Handball Arranged. The schedule committee also has au thority to draw up a schedule for hand I ball games. The idea is to give every organization a chance to challenge the Delta Taus, present holders of the cup, to determine whether they shall be al lowed permanent possession of the trophy which is a two-year cup. A schedule will be drawn up and each or ganization will be able to play the Delta Taus if they wish. The rule which pro vides for a ten dollar fine in case of non appearance of a team at. the time sched uled will be suspended and the team will merely lose the game by default. So Is Track. The interfraternity track meet will probably bo held in April this year as Bill Hayward wishes the meet to come early in the season. Several new rules have been made. All men will be eligible for the meet except certain men picked by Hayward who will not be allowed to enter the events in which they would be entered in a varsity meet. Each house will be permitted to enter two men in each event. More ridings will probably be made later, as “Bill” was unable to be present at the meeting. All of the organizations that have not paid their five dollar assessment to the “Doughnut” league treasurer should do so at once, for their team will be ruled out unless the money is paid by the time for the first contest. STUDY HABITS SURVEYED Six Standard High Schools Examined by University. The University school of education is making a survey of the study habits of high school students. Six standard high schools have been chosen for this exam ination. One thousand blanks have been distributed, which contain such questions as “How many hours have you studied at home this week?” “How many hours have you studied at school?” Blanks have also been sent to the principals of these high schools to find out whether the school building condi tions are conducive to study. The prin cipal is asked to tell whether or not his school has a study hall. He is ques tioned regarding the work he has done with the parents to interest them in making it easier for the student to study at home. The result of the questionaire will be put into a circular, which will be gent to the 186 standard high schools of the state, together with suggestions for bet ttring study facilities. “Methods of Study” will be one of the topics for discussion at the high school conference, which will convene in Eu gene at She opening of the University summer school. Charts will be made and the result of this investigation shown at this time. The question will be thrown open for general discussion. The Now York Intercollegiate Peace association has offered $300 in prizes for the best oration on peace delivered by an undergraduate of that state. *]"he winner of the North Atlantic group of states will then be given a prominent place on the program of Lake Mohank conference, 1 which meets in May. 1 BILL TUERCK GETS ATHLETIC COUNCIL JOB Varsity Pitcher Chosen to Fill “Al”: Bigbee's Vacated Brogans. “Bill” Tuerck, three-year varsity baseball man, was last night appointed to the athletic council to fill the place vacated by Lyle Bigbee, by Lamar Tooze, president of the student body. Lyle Bigbee, in company with his brother. Carson, accepted a position on the Portland baseball team recently re sulting in the vacany on the council. Tuerck has been prominent in athlet I ics for some time. He is a three-year i man on the baseball team, and is now : staarting on his fourth as a star twirler j ! for the varsity. I i I>ast fall Bill took the notion into his ! head that he wanted to play football and i out he went. He played in the O. A. ! C. game and went on the trip to Cali fornia. Tuerck was played at end for a time and then shifted to fullback. “The appointment came quite unex pectedly to me,” he said last night. “I wasn’t looking for it at all.” ALUMNI NOTICE I, the undersigned, do hereby en close .%‘l for one 1915-101(5 Oregnna Year Book, delivery prepaid.

Humorous Excuses Always Forthcoming. The University library is ranking enough money off of the careless stu dents on the campus to pay its small hills. Yes, indeed, its a fact. Since Janu ary 1, 301(1, the sura of $58.00 has been ! added to the library assets. The total ! amount taken in from fines only for 1935 was $159.03. Have you any overdue books at your house? You had better return them post haste, before the library gets on the high road to wealth and becomes a cor poration instead of a student conveni ence. Most of the money “comes hard”—just like pulling wisdom teeth. Mr. Douglass claims that he often has to “extract” it. There are so many little excuses. You know them. “Why, I didn't know there was such a rule.” “Yes, but my grandmother died and the funeral lasted an hour past the time that book was due.” “Won’t you excuse me just this time? Honest to goodness, I haven’t a cent.” “Well, you see it was this way. 1 lost the darned thing and 1 didn’t find it until this morning und—well, it really wasn’t all my fault, now, was it?” “Now, isn’t that just the funniest thing? 1 thought that 0 was a 9 all the time.” And so on ad infinitum. The fact that the notice came six days after the book was due doesn’t make any difference with the library. They have an alibi—all notices arc made out on Friday afternoon and mailed on Saturday. If the book happened to be due on the preceding Monday why—that just makes it more extrnvagant for the student. If the book was due on Friday —lucky day! The date stamped in the back of the book is to fix on the student the responsibility and to save the library from working on the notices every Fri day afternoon. Fines are a nuisance and the library doesn’t like to handle them. The collect ing of them is not pleasant work either. Those in charge say that the students who can least afford such luxuries al ways pay up promptly while those who ‘ can afford it stand around and argue for 1 an hour and then sometimes refuse to pay a cent. It is rather disagreeable to think about it, but there is a state law which provides that whoever “wilfully detains” a library book or periodical is liable to a fine of not less than $500 and not more than $25.00, or imprisonment not to exeeel 6 months. Mr. Douglass says that this law has never had to be wielded over the. head of any University student, ns yet. The professors don’t have to pay fines—they just get called down. But they have the reputation at the library of being very gracious about returning books and need only, to be warned once. Score one for the exemplary profs. Careful examination of the receipt books discloses the fhct that neither the girls nor the boys are "worst.” They are both “bad.” Individual fines have run as high as $5 and a« low as two cents. There is no diminution in the number of fines collected. They still average about $6 a. month.
