WHERE THE GIRLS CAN REALLY HELP.
Oregon’s basketball team lost to Willamette Saturday night
and the week before it lost to the fast and experienced five from
the Multnomah Club. There is a possibility that they will lose
every game on the schedule, but that is no excuse for the failure
of the students to support this activity and support the team that
is representing their school.
At Saturday night’s game there was a scant hundred men
in the bleachers and not half that many women scattered around
the balcony. Where the band was nobody knew. Three times
during the entire evening the team was given a semblence of
weal support and then when the ball was not in play. An out
sider might well have judged that, aside from enjoying the sport,
the students had no particular interest in either of the teams.
What’s wrong? Have Oregon students come to that shade
of indifference toward the teams representing their school that
they have to be baited with a dance, or a gossip social before they
will turn out to back up an Oregon team ? Were the games held
on evenings preceding school days there might be the excuse that
the time was needed for study, but held when they are the ap
parent reasons for the failure of students to turn out is plain in
difference and lack of the true Oregon Spirit. There is some
thing lacking in the student who will sit around the house, or
saunter off down town to a picture show or a dance whenever
chore is a basketball game or other contest being played in which
a University team is one of the contestants.
A large part of the task of supporting the teams must of
necessity fall upon the girls this year. It is one of the duties
which they are called upon to assume as the ranks of the men
become more and more thinned out by enlistments. It is one of
the things they must do, for though we are at war and every
“nergy of the country must be devoted to the task of winning that
war, the colleges of the country, their customs and their tradi
tions must be sustained as a vital factor in the nation’s present
■and future welfare. What about it, girls?
THE THREE-TERM SYSTEM.
How, considered from every angle, is the three-term plan
working out here at Oregon? In other colleges where the sys
tem has been adopted the opinion seems to be that the advantages
of three terms over two are overweighed by the disadvantages.
On the local campus arguments for both systems are now and
then advanced, but it seems that the question is one that could
well bear serious consideration and a frank discussion, inasmuch
as the system is really in its experimental stage in the Univer
sity.
Following is a clipping from the University of Utah student
paper in which is discussed the three-term plan introduced in
that institution this year:
“The Mechanical Engineering Department is wrestling with
the difficult task of adapting its course of study to the ‘three
’term plan.’
“It appears from the general layout that much inconvenience
will be felt by students who enter late in the school year, and also
vho leave before school closes in the spring, as the concentration
>f courses will require the classes to go much faster in the sub
ects in the fall terms, and spring terms than they do on a ‘two
erm” plan. For this reason it will be rather difficult for stu
lents who enter late to catch up in their work and for those who
rave before the spring term is over, to cover the required sub
nets.” •

Instructor in Ordnance Makes
Arrangements for Classes
to Continue for In
definite Time.
Government Sends Outlines for
Study; New Corps to
Begin March 11.
Lieutenant C. C. Jeremiah, head of the
ordnance department at the University,
is making definite plans for an ord
nance class (to begin every seven weeks.
Though there is no special authoriza
tion for this, it is understood that there
will be a continual series of courses until
the war department finds that enough
men have been (trained to handle this
work.
Courses Outlined.
Since the government has required the
enlistment of the men before the class
opens, it has outlined the following
courses which will be given in all the
schools having ordnance work: Scien
tific store handling, 90 hours for the six
weeks; ordnance accounting, 80
hours; infantry drill, 36 hours; adminis
tration of the ordnance field depot, 15
hours; army organization; military law,
6 hours; military correspondence, 5
hours; principles of accounting, 4 hours;
French, 20 hours.
The course in military law will be
handled by Ralph Moores. Mr. Moores
completed the last ordnance course and
enlisted, but was immediately detailed
here to direct the study of the new
course.
80 Applications In.
Lieutenant Jeremiah is anxious to
receive applications for the next course,
which will open March 11. About 80
■applications have already come in, hot
the instructors in ordnance want ns
many applicants as possible to give a
chance for a more intensive selection.
Draft men are eligible for the course
if they enter it before their local board
has assigned them (to a cantonment.

Phi Delts Win From
Oregon Club 4 to 5
The Oregon Club five was again
nosed out in a close game in the Dough
nut league Saturday, by the Phi Delta
Theta quintet, the final score being 3
to 4. This was the only game played
Saturday, the other teams being unable
to get together, postponed their games,
excepting the Friendly Ilall-A. T. O.
contest, which was forfeited by the lat
ter to the Dormitory.
The only game played was not very
fast, and inasmuch as both teams had
lost a game, there was very little spirit
manifested. The affair was inclined to
lag at times, and it was not until well
along in ihe last period that any real
fight was shown. Just ns Ihe whistle
blew for the end of the contest, Johnny
Gamble and Kennedy indulged in a little
comedy which caused a double foul to
be called. Joe Ingram tossed one for
the Phi Delts. but the Oregon Club
failed to get theirs, so the game went
to the Phi Delts.
Strachnn Star Josser.
Strachan, of the Phi Delts, pulled one
of the neatest pieces of basket shooting
| seen this season when he threw a per
i feet counter from the middle of the
floor. Strachan was being checked by
an Oregon Club man at the time and
the throw was a hard hack-handed shot.
Ingram. Strachan. and Kennedy
played a good game for the Phi Delts.
while Gildigger, Gamble, and Warner
showed up to advantage for the Oregon
Club.
Inter-section Games Postponed.
The inter-section games are scheduled
for this week, but owing to the large
number of postponed games which af
fect the leaders, it will he necessary ft'
play these off before the championship
