Four Class Teams Begin Prac tice Wednesday Night With Sophomores Showing Best. Interclass basketball games were an nounced last night for December 18, 19 and 110, by Coach Hayward. The seniors will meet the junior team on the first day and on the second day the sopho mores will meet the frosh. The two winning teams will then fight for class championship on the next day. This arrangement of dates throws the class games on the three days just pre vious to holiday vacation and makes it impossible for the inter-fraternity games to be played before vacation as was gen erally planned. They will probably be staged early in January. Practice for the games began Wednes day night with the sophomores and freshman showing up as leaders. Be tween these teams the sophomores, who have intact practically the same team with which they won the class champion ship last year, have the advantage of having played together. In a practice game last night they won from the fresh men by a good score. The sophomore material which has turned up this year consists of Cossman and McCready for center, ,T. Fox, Farley and Cate for for wards and W. Sheehy, Alexander, Phipps, Melson, and C. Nelson for the guard posi tions. Of these men Nelson, Farley and McCready were on the mythical varsity team selected last year by the Emerald sports editor. The freshmen are by no means out of the race, however, and with a little more practice in playing will be able to give the sophomores a close rub. They have the largest turnout that has appeared on the floor with S. Leslie and Knudson try ing for center, Lind, Fowler, L. Waldron Still and Miller for forwards and Rein hart, Steers, R. Smith, Boylen and D. Wilson for guards. Both upper-class teams have been handicapped so far in the season by a small turnout which has been partly due to football practice. This takes Risley, Huntington and Montieth from the Junior line-up and Tuerck and Parsons from the seniors. The seniors have Loren Roberts, member of the all-star team last year, for center, Don Rader, who is considered the best basket-shoot er on the campus for one of the forwards and Scaiefe for the other. For guards they have Rathbun and Sims. 'l'hi> junior line-up so far has been: Grebe and (larretson, forwards; .1. Shee hy etui D. Roberts, guards; and Denu, center. MRS. CAMPBELL RECOVERING Mrs. r.

Plans for Helping 250 “Kid dies” Under Way; May Use Chamber of Commerce. The University of Oregon Inter-Fra ternity council will give its second an nual Christmas tree for the benefit of the poor children of Eugene, next Tues day evening. It will probably be in the rooms of the Eugene chamber of commerce. A similar entertainment and tree was given last year at which children were entertained and presents given. “This year,” said Emmett Rathbun, chairman of the committee appointed for the af fair, “we are planning to do more than we did last year. Accomodations are being made for the entertainment of about 250 children, each of whom will be given a useful present such as a pair of stockings, clothing and the like. “A Santa Claus will distribute candy and nuts among the youngsters, who are present. "Ench fraternity is to have a certain part of the entertainment in charge, and each one will do its share putting on a stunt or doing its work.” The committee which was appointed last Tuesday at the meeting of the coun cil is composed of Emmett Rathbun, chairman, Karl Iledke and Loren Roberts. The work which is known as the Inter Fraternity Welfare Work was first start ed at Christmas time last year, and is being repeated this year with the in- ] tention of helping as many children, and needy as is possible.
