The first of these is the promise given to the mer chants in 1914, that from that date only the Otegana and the Oregon Emerald would be entitled to their support as student body publications, and advertis ing space in these two mediums would 0 be the only space sold with the endorse ment of the student council. ‘‘The second issue arises from the fact that at the last meeting of the coun ;il, October 25, a resolution was passed stating that this case was not to be an exception and that the consent of the council could not be given to the pub lishers. This was passed after the coun cil had discussed what they considered the facts of the case.” The consideration of the question last night began with a brief review of these facts; the concession, according to Rus sell Ralston, one of the publishers of the program who was present at the meeting, was originally given to William Snyder by A. R. Tiffany. Snyder in turn gave the rights to Ralston, James Vance and Robert Atkinson and Ralston and Vance were most active in the is suing of the program. Before proceed ing with the issuing of the programs, Ralston asked Karl Becke, a member of j the council, if he thought the consent 1 of the council could be gained. Becke told Ralston that he thought the council could not object, provided the merchants were warned that this was not a stu dent body enterprise and the plan of the publishers to print on each page a state ment to this effect was carried out. The merchants were each advised according to Ralston but the printing of the state ment on each page of the program was neglected. The objection to the soliciting of ad vertising space from the merchants lies in the fact that only a certain amount of money is set aside for advertising each year by the business men and according to an estimate submitted to the coun cil the loss to the Emerald through ad vertising which will now be denied the student paper on account of having been given to the program, will amount to about $140. Ralston claims that the Lane County r___ (Continued on page three) GERMAN CLUB FROLICS # * # * JOKES OR FORFEITS,WHICH? # ■ # * * PLANS ENTERTAINMENT The telling of German jokes and the 1 redeeming of the forfeits which were paid as a penalty for not coining forth with a joke, caused a great deal of mer riment’ at the meeting of the German Club at the Y. W. C. A. Bungalow last night. The means of regaining the for feits differed all the way from a German political speech for Hughes to a declara tion of love in German. The latest thing the club is planning to stage is a student body dance to be given by the club at the men’s gymnasium No vember 25, the evening of the O. A. C. game. The plans cannot be made defin itely till arrangements are made con cerning the date, but if it cannot bo arranged for that time the dance will be given later on. Plans are also being made for a Christ mas entertainment to be given the Thursday before vacation begins. A Christmas tree and program will be fea tures of the evening and refreshments will be served. Now is the time to be looking up good German poems as there will be fiist, second and third prizes for the best German recitations in the near future. These are to be spoken before tne mem bers of the club who will decide on the merits. The date of the presentation of the German play, “Der Meisterschaff” lias been announced as the first Friday in January. Games and a German reading by Pro fessor Herman Schwarz are planned for the next meeting, which will be Wednes day night. MANY BETS WILL BE PAID — Wagers Take Form of Mill Ra:e Parties, Banquets and Candy. Bets varying from a banquet to a millrace party featured the election on the campus. Several of the fraternity houses staged bets between their Hughes men and their Wilson supporters. The Delta Tau Deltas have agreed that the loosing side will submit to be ing thrown into the millrace by the winners. In that house the Hughes sup porters are in the minority, so the pros pects for them are not very bright. In the Kappa Sigma house the sides are exactly even, 18 to 18. There the losing men will have to stage sore sort of an entertainment and provide a din ner for their victors. The Phi Delts have arranged for a banquet at the Osburn a week from Sun day. The two sides are evenly matched in numbers and the loosers will have to finance the dinner. Some of the individual wagers were in the form of dinners for two or four at the Osburne. Many bets of candy were made by the co-eds. A freshman and a senior made an unusual bet, almost. The senior, if he lost, agreed to wear a green cap one whole day, while the freshman, if he were the looser, promised to sit all day, or at least at every pos sible opportunity, on the senior bench. The freshman, however decided that he was taking great chances and “resigned” on the bet. PRESIDENT ON TRIP EAST Expects to Be Back From Convention in Two Weeks. President F. L. Campbell left Tues day evening for Washington, D. C., where he will attend a meeting of the National Association of State Universi ties on the thirteenth and fourteenth of this month. President Campbell has been asked to address the association on the question: "Cun we formulate ideals for which state universities are spon sors?” About forty universities are to be represented in this congress, and since the time given to the congress is .o short, it is a noteworthy honor which has ■been conferred upon the Oregon presi dent. Besides attending this meeting Presi dent Campbell plans to attend The Na tional Commonwealth Congress in Phila delphia on the fiftheenth and sixteenth and look after other University matters ' en route. He is expected back on the * campus in two weeks. [ in BASKETBALL WILL BEHSTITED Faculty at Specal Meeting De cides to Allow Resump tion of Sport. Prospects for Team This Year Doubtful; Few Old Men Back. Varsity basketball will be reinstated this year. This was definitely decided Tuesday evening at a special meeting of the faculty. Action on the matter resulted from a petition presented by the student-council asking for resumption of the varsity game. Last year Oregon was not a member of any conference in basketball. The student-council argued for rein statement of intercollegiate basketball on the grounds that it furnishes phy sical benefit to as many students as does inter-class games; that it does not interefere with coaching a large number of students by the physical trainers; IT SPECIALS TO CAM STUDENTS TO CAME “Pep” Fest in Villard Hall To night to Raise En thusiasm. Frank Scaiefe, New Yell Lead er, Urges All to Be at Train and Rally. Plans are well under way for a royal send-off for the Oregon football team on their departure for Portland where they will battle with the huskies from Wash ington State College Saturday. Frank Scaiefe, who has been elected yell leader in the place of John Dolph, is in charge and urges everyone to be present at the train Friday morning at 7:30, when the team will leave accom panied by the band. “This will give everyone time to make their eight o’clocks and there is no ex cuse for anyone not being there,” says Scaiefe. The “pep fest” in Villard Thursday i Rooters, Send ’Em Off The team leaves Friday morning at 7:35 to beat the Dietz machine. Be there to give the gang a push. They are up against the hardest thing in the West. Let Oregon give her team all she has. Have breakfast early and GET TO THE RALLY. ROOTERS, BACK 'EM UP! The railroads are running special trains with re duced rates to Portland for Saturday’s fracas. Scrape those nickles together and go along. Back the team there on Multnomah field. W. S. C. will have a gang of rooters. Who is going to promulgate the racket and the oskies if you don’t go? Back ’em up boys, back ’em up. FRANK SCAIEFE, Yell Leader. that the benefit to the student-body as a whole from versity basketball far out weighs any possible advantage of in tramural sports. Student sentiment has been in favor of the varsity game since its suspension by the faculty last fall. It was claimed that more time should be allowed coaches during the winter for attention to a large number of students who would not play varsity ball. The argument that intercollegiate basketball was expen sive and yielded little returns was also advanced by several members of the faculty. The faculty decision comes as a surprise to the student-body generally. Although the petition was favored by a large majority of the students it was feared that it would be voted down by the same sentiment that originally figur ed in the discontinuation of the varsity sport. Interclass games proved a decided success last winter. A large number of games were dayed and a great many students benefited by the contests, but attendance was small and the spirit which characterize intercollegiate contests was almost absent. The petition by the student council ad vanced the contention that the snme widespread benefit is possible along with varsity rasketball. And that r’ne spirit of rivalry is healthy to the students ano scJiool ia general in developing individ uality and confidence. Sever-l old varsity stars have not returned to the University. Just vhat the prosp 'ts Me for a team this cea.'on are doubtful. A few good men - main as a nucleus around which to build a strong quintet. ASSOCIATION TO MEET. The Woman’s Athletic association will meet ia Guild hall Tuesday, November 14. This is the last meeting ut which old members can pay their dues. New ! members will be taken in at this time.

Washington State College is com ing to Portland with about four hundred well trained rooters and it is up to every man who can possibly do it to be in the Oregon rooter section at Portland. Be sure to take your rooters bats aud Ore gon colors. The game Saturday will determine whether or not Oregon has any claim to the championship of the northwest. Dietz, the W. S. C. chief, is bringing with him a wonderful machine composed of seasoned men, which will no doubt make it very interesting for the lemon yellow supporters who find it possible to accompany the players. Specials will leave on both the O. E. and S. P Sat urday morning. A special on the Southern Pacific will leave here at 8 u. m. Saturday and reach Portland at 11:50 a. m., says Alex Bowen, who is the agent of the South ern Pacific for this special train. There will he a special which leaves Portland at 7 p m. Sunday to bring the rooters hack. The fare will he $4.80, or a fare and a third. It is not known definitely yet whether the Oregon Electric will run a special, says A. It. Tiffany, registrar. It is suid that this road will run a special if 100 cun he secured for the train. The fare on the Oregon Electric will lie $4.80, also, according to Mr. Tiffany. The University Band will go to Port land for this game.

LIBRARY BOOKS MUTILATED Clipping Cut From Bound Magazines and Books; State Law Violated. The library is being troubled by stu dents mutilating books, magazines and they were last spring,” says Mr. Douglas These depredations are not confined to unbound copies; many bound magazines have clippings cut roni them. ‘‘Mutilations happen every year • and fortunately are not. as bad this fall as they were last spring,” says Mr. Douglass. Mr. Douglass, asks that anyone finding mutilations report them at once as it is sometimes hard to duplicate a magazine if it is very old. Recent mutilations are: The bound volunieR of Architectural Record No. 2!?, page 285, illustration of the entrance to the Hen rat memovialminlng building of the university of California.

TEAMS PRIM FIGHT TO Dope Gives U. of 0. 50-50 Chance Against W. S. C. Saturday. DIETZ HAS NINE VETERANS IN LINEUP Victory Will Place Oregon in Running for the Champ-, ionship. William Haseltino With both teams having a 50-50 chance on the dope sheet, Oregon and Washington State are primed for a fight to the finish next Saturday on Mult nomah field. The Varsity will leave Friday morning on the 7:35 Oregon Electric so that they can have a workout in Portland before the game. The lemon-yellow has put in ft strenu ous week of practice ns the strength of the Pullman contingent is known to be equal if not superior to^the championship team of last year. All of our men are in fine condition with the exception of Mon tieth who has a weak knee, but he will undoubtedly be ready when the whistle blows. To beat W. S. C. is going to be a Hereuleanenn task, for Indian Dietz has nine of his old men back. Zimmerman and Doom is, ends; Brooks and Herried, tackles; Fishbnck, -uard and Langdon, center, are all letter men in the line. In the backfield Bangs at half, Doane at fullback and Durham at quarter were also regulars last year. Hamilton, guard, and Boone, right haflbaek are the new comers. Loomis may be out of the lineup as he was injured in the Idaho game. If the bear stories from Pullman are to bo be lieved four or five more of the squad are under the weather. Oregon is going up against a team that started slow but kept getting better and better until now it has reached the maxi mum of its power. O. A. C., aided by the breaks in the luck and by the Staters fumbling, bent them 1.1-10 al though Dietz's men outrushed the Aggies two to one. This took the overconfld- * cnee out of them and they overwhelmed the heavy Montana eleven UT-0 and trampled oil Idaho 31-0. In the Idaho game Durham kicked three field goals out of four attempts. Anywhere within the 40 yard zone Dur ham appears to be well-nigh infallible. Both Oregon ana Washington State use the direct pass and practically the same formation. They are about even ly matched in weight and experience ns well. W. S. C.’s defense has held all of the opposing backs it has met so far to small gains. Montana made three first downs and Idaho but two. Multnomah field is easily drained and ulmost sure to be dry so that a better game than last week's is certain. The team that gets the breaks will win. The same lineup that started the Washington game will start Saturday. If Loomis and Zimmerman are unable to play, Hanley and Boone will probably get their positions. Otherwise Diet* will depend on the men that beat Idaho. Fullmun is planning on sending their bund and about a hundred rooters with the team and from present indications will have as many if not more. Section* will be reserved for the students in the bleachers. The newspapers are advertis ing the game extensively and provisions are being made for a record-breaking crowd. If Oregon wins she will still be in running for the championship. DOLPH LEAVES UNIVERSITY Accepts Position In Akron, Ohio; Will Lead Rooters In Portland. John M. Dolpli, yell leader, withdrew from the University yesterday and left lust night for Portland. I)olph will ap pear before the rooters once more in the game Saturday with W. S. C. iu Port land. He intends to leave Portland for Akron, Ohio, where he has a good open ing in a company there. Dolph, who is a junior in the univer sity, was a member of the men’s glee club, a member of the Oregana staff, and a member of the campus players. He was a member of the Beta Theta Pi fraternity and was majoring in Greek.
