Mr. Plummer was introduced by President Campbell as a warm friend of the Uni versity. Mr. Plummer said his object in coming to “Oregon” was not to de liver any particular message but to re ceive a re-charge of enthusiasm him self. He charged the older students to make the freshmen feel at home, for he said the average new student Puds ilke a eat in a strange garret. Make him a part of the college life at once, Mr. Plum mer advised. Gain his support and co operation in every activity. Interest in nil University activities and support for debate and athletics as well as fur the organization in which the student is particularly Interested, is ad vocated by Mr. Plummer.

Ability to express oneself to the point and quickly is a great asset in business and debating is the best possible training for this.” Success or failure comes to any un dertaking through its support or lack or support and according to Mr. Plummer “Oregon” needs the support of the stud ents in every activity. “We can’t nil be foot-ball heroes or orators but we can and must give our enthusiastic sup port. Little parts consistently done ere of grenter importance than the lug parts.” According to the speaker the University needs every single' man and woman back of her in every thing. “The realization Of the necessity of good work is the duty of every student," said Mr. Plummer, “for a return Is ex pected by the taxpayers who support the University and success in life is the only way in which they can be repaid.

Make good that they may not regret the sacrifice of sending you to college. .You don’t realize how much we are wrapped up in you.

Thursday, October 12, Coach Pi pal and a squad of some twenty or more Orange and Black moleskin worriors will hoard the 11 :U0 northbound South ern Pacific train en route for Pullman, Washington, where they stack up against Coach Dietz’s championship eleven next: Saturday afternoon, in the second conference game of the year. The squad will stop off in Portland for the afternoon and will run signals on Multnomah field to familiarize them selves with the clubmen’s gridiron in anticipation of the Nebraska battle, which will he staged on this field a week from this coining Saturday. They will leave the Rose City Thursday night and will attempt to rest up at Pullman the night before the game. Although Coach Dietz’s men were de feated by the Alumni last Saturday, for the first time since the former Carlisle star has taken charge, all accounts agree that the Pullman collegians evinced no interest in tin1 game until after the Alumni had scored oil a lucky fumble, when they started in to show their real class and had crossed their opponents goal line once and were well on their way to another touchdown and victory, when the final whistle blew. Washington State has practically the same team that won the championship last fall anil si decisively defeated last season’s team of veterans, and what tlii'se men will do to Conch PipaJ’s light and inexperienced eleven, only next Sat urday’s game can tell. Practically the same men that made the trii> to Mosc< ■' last week with the probable addition of A. Anderson, Proc tor and Hose, will be taken on the trip. - O. A. C. Barometer.

You simply cannot break it down by hard work— if you live right.” Here is his plan: “The whole secret lies in your diet. Eat plenty but not, too much. First of all let nothing slip past your adams apple that skids into your lower anatomy with a thud like a ton of coal and then splashes around in the bottom of your pit like a freshman in the millrace.” Here is the Dean’s pet morning re cipe: “Eat a small bowl of oat-meal follow ed by a soft boiled egg (cooked on both sides).
