Judging from the number of books on the waij which have been released by the library, a decided Interest is shown on the part of the students as to the topics of the war. The library has about 240 volumes, including pamphlets, all of which are of late publication and written along some lines of the war. More than 100 of these have been released to the students. Books may be ha(l which deal with the Allies on the western front, the work of the Red Cross and of the dip lomatic background surrounding the course of the war. Volumes of poetry, fiction and description can be found on the truck which stands to the right of the circulation desk in the library. Some of the books are: “Ambu lance No. 19,” by Leslie Bushnell; “Mr. Brittling Sees It Through,” by H. G. Wells; “With the Allies,” by Richard Harding Davis; “A Student In Arms,” by Donald Hankey; and “Letters From a French Hospital.” NEW STUDENT COM ASKSREALCOOPERATION (Concluded from page 1.) consisting of Lynn McCready, Martha Tinker and Helene DeLano. This is an important committee in the eyes of the council, as it will offer a way to replenish the fundst in the treasury and will also start up the old "jazz’ by a big get-together “hop” in the near future. The receipts of the first dance will be used to pay off a debt of $21 Which was left from the pur chase of the gold football fobs last year. Another committee consisting of Walter Myers, Clinton Thienes, Cora llosford, Frances Prater and Dwight Wilson, was appointed to work out plans for the sending of magazines, books and the Oregon Emerald to col lege men who are now enlisted in mil itary service. They are also to make arrangements for a fitting memorial tribute in some form which will be erected on the campus and on which will be subscribed the names of the University students who have and will soon answer the call of the bugle. The spirit of the committee was brought forth in President Sheehy’s statement, “If we can’t go across, we can come across.” Will Decide Drill Hour. A third committee was appointed, consisting of Ray Couch, Harry Crain and Hill Steers, who will canvass the students to find file hour which will bo (lie most desirable for military drill. Blanks will be made out and passed through the classes on which (lie students can state the hour most deselrable to them, and in this way the time for military drill can bo se lected which will be satisfactory to all. Following the appointment of the committees, the council, after consid erable discussion, elected George Cook manager of this year's Oregana to fill the vacancy loft by Jimmy Vance, who is now witli the University ambulance corps at. American Lake, Wash. Har old Gray and Harold Newton were also discussed in connection with the po sition. A yell leader and assistant will be elected after the tryouts, Thursday afternoon.

LACKS ’VARSITY SPEED (Concluded from page 1.) yellow. In spite of the fact that the team is “green,” Oregon fans feel that the ’varsity will give a good ac count of itself, and this belief is borne out by the coach. “Those boys are going in Saturday to fight, and whether we win or not, Multnomah will know she’s been in a game,” said Bez. “The boys are com ing along fine. If I had six weeks to prepare for W. S. C. we might make some kind of a showing against them even with their seven letter men.” The call for candidates certainly brought results last night, when over 30 men turned out for the ’varsity and about the same number for the baby eleven. The coach made a few changes in his first team lineup. “Doc” Macy alternated with George Cook at left guard. “Doc” showed surpris ing knowledge of the game and will probably get a chance Saturday. At right guard Creston Maddock re lieved Arthur Berg, who was still feel ing the effects of Saturday’s scrim mage. The rest of the line-up re mained the same. Hard At Practice. Scrimmage occupied most of the practice both Tuesday and Wednesday. Using but one play, the ’varsity tore through the freshmen and scrubs for five and ten yards at a clip. Steers and Hunter both managed to break away for long runs. The men put lots of snap and dash into their work, which augurs well for the slow moving Portland team. Oregon will go into the contest out weighed from 10 to 15 pounds to the man, but the superior speed of the iocals will offset any such disadvan tage. A telegram that lie could not possi bly return killed all hope that Pete Jensen might come back to bolster up the backfield. Ray Couch is the only man left to return now. GREAT, SAYS LECTURER (Concluded from page 1.) Bolivia, on which she has already made partial ascents. Enjoys South America. “When I went to South America,” she said, “some people told me that 1 would not receive the consideration which I expected, but I found that although the people were surprised to think that a woman should attempt to climb mountains, they had no pre judice against it, and really gave me more attention and courtesy than I received here.” Miss Pe^ck enjoys going to South America, but in all her travels she has never found one particular place which she likes best of all. “I like them all,” she said, “and as a rule it is the people wlto have trav eled least who have one particular spot which they are sure is the finest place on earth.” The position of women in South America is another thing which inter ests Miss Peck. Many clubs exist in the larger cities, which the women have formed and through which they are gradually getting a little broader view of life. They want higher edu cation and they are getting it. Miss Peck spoke before several of these clubs on her last trip to South Amer ica a year ago, at which time she lec tured in Spanish and Portuguese in a ten months’ tour of all the larger cities. Misa Peck does not look at all like one who has broken records in moun tain climbing. She does not appear athletic, but talks and acts more like1 the dignified college woman and teacher from whom has emerged the. ' scaler of peaks. Miss Peck will lecture at Stanford next week. TWO LETTER MEN RETURN Jay Kox and Harold Maison. after spending the summer in central Ore gon. returned to the University Tues day. Fox is a letter man in basket ball. and Maison in baseball. Both played on the Prineville team in the Central Oregon league in spare mo ments while they worked in the Prine ville hay fields and on the railroad that is building into Prineville. — FRESHMAN GIRLS WEAR GREEN If you are a freshman girl at the niversitv of Syracuse, a green but ton is just as indispensable on your coat lapel as is a green cap on the [ head of your 1921 brother.
