READY TO START
00UGH1UT SERIES
(View Cup Exhibited Downtown
Raises Interest; First
Game Monday.
Enthusiasts and “also-rans” of the
popular indoor basket game have already
begun kicking the varnish off the gym
floor in anticipation of the coining
doughnut series which will likely begin
next Monday.
Although members of the varsity and
freshman squads will not be allowed to
participate in the inter-fraternity strug
gles, many tossers of rare ability will be
ieen in action.
A new cup on display in Hauser Bros.’
window is responsible for much of the
enthusiasm apparent on the campus. The
other cup, which the Sigma This have
held for the last two years, must again
be won by them this year before it can
rest permanently on their mantle.
With the return of Oran .Tonkins and
“Slim” Crandall in the near future the
Sigma ('bis will again have their entire
quintet which defeated all-comers last
season and this will undoubtedly give
them an edge on the other Greek war
Kors. Sports authorities believe that the
Style of ball played by Ben Breed and
“Slim” Crandall will be an norial attack,
over the heads of opponents built closer
to the floor.
Delta Taus Have Star.
The Delta Tati Dolts however, have
n dark horse of varsity caliber in Askey
who last year played on the Puget Sound
eollege quintet. Although the Fi.jis have
several men on the varsity squad if
aught can he judged from former years
their aggregation will undnbntedly figure
In the final battles. Tn “Skeeter” Man ■
erwl and Billy Morrison the Betas will
have a pair of forwards who will help
their aggregation. Bill Hollenbeck, D u
Van Boskirk and “Si” Starr form a nu
cleus for a team which will make the
Sigma Nus strong contenders for the
honors, while the Phi Delts have Juhnn.v
Gamble and “Navy” Morgenson as main
stays for their squad. “Pink” Boylen,
Lloyd Still and Mautz will he among Kap
pa Sig representatives who will endeavor
to be among those present when the pos
ies are passed out at the end of the sea
son .Dope on the A. T. O. quintet Is en
tirely lneklng due perhaps to the fact
that the A. T. (Vs have obviously been
concentrating their efforts elsewhere
than on the bask (ball floor.
For convenience the games are play
ed in two divisions which are chosen by
lottery. Due to the activities of the It.
O. T. O. the dates for the schedule have
not. as yet been definitely decided upon.
The first games, however, will probably
take place next Monday afternoon. The

THE FLU
When your back is broke and your eyes are blurred,
And your shin bones knock and your tongue is furred,
And your tonsils squeak and your hair gets dry,
And you’re doggone sure you’re going to die;
But you’re “skeered” you won’t and afraid you will
Just drag to bed and have your chill,
And pray the Lord to see you through,
For you’ve got the Flu, boy; you’ve got the Flu.
When your toes curl up and your belt goes flat,
And you’re twice as mean as a Thomas Cat,
And life is a long and dismal course,
And your food all tastes like a hard-boiled hearse;
Then your lattace aches and your head’s a-buzz,
And nothing is as it used to wuz,—
You’ve got the Flu, boy; you’ve got the Flu.
What is it like, this Spanish Flu?
Ask me, brother, I’ve been through,
It is by misery out of despair,
It pulls your teeth and curls your hair;
And thins your blood and brays your bones,
And fills your craw with moans and groans;
And sometimes, maybe, you get well, *
Some call it the Flu—I call it Hell.
—DOUGHBOY.
Short Siory Market Brisk, Says
Former Student, Now
Lieutenant.
Lieutenant Edison Marshall well
known short story writer and author,
arrived in Eugene' Tuesday evening and
spent yesterday visiting his old cronies
on the campus.
Edison was a member of the class of
*17 but left the University in his junior
year to devote ah of his time to writing.
11 is. stories have been printed in the
American Magazine, Saturday Evening
Post, Munsey’s, etc. For the past two
years he has been on the “Roll of Ilon
ci" of America’s short stories.
Edison took the second ordnance
course which was given at the Univer
sity last spring. From here he was
sent to Camp Hancock. Georgia, where
he was made second lieutenant. Edison
has received his discharge from the
aimy and will now go hack to his writ
ing.
While at Camp Hancock. Edison
wrote a very interesting history of ord
nance which ran as a series in the camp
paper and will later be printed in hook
form. It is the first history of its kind
to be written.
“The market for good stories was
never better than at present.” said Mr.
Marshall. "Th' slump is probably due
to so many writers going to war.” Ten
editors have recently written Mr. Mar
shall asking him for stories.
Mr. Marshall left last night for his
home in Medford, where, he says, he
will settle down to his literary work.
••But 1 shall he returning to the old
campus for occasional visits. It charms
me, and it will be hard to keep me
away," he said.
Efforts are to he made, so Lieutenant
Marshall said, to revive on the campus,
'1 he Tabard Inn, a national fraternity
of writers.
While here lieutenant Marshall was
a guest at the Delta Tau Delta house of
which fraternity he is a member.
Y. M. C. A. PLAN CHANGED
Gray’s System will Roach Every Man
on Campus.
The campus V. M. O. A. will he con
ducted this year by the group method
the men mooting in small groups in the
various houses and the dormitory with
additional meetings of other groups in
the llut. These meetings will he held once
a week and will he under the supervision
of the Associated Friendship Council,
composed of men chosen from the vari
ous groups, one man representing a
group of ten men.
These men will lead at the weekly
meetings and will he assisted by mem
bers i>f the faculty. The classes thus
f rmed are to be called "World Out
look” classes.
David K. Porter, national student sec
retary, at the meeting last night explain
ed the plan of organisation which was
adopted hr the men. He said that many
of the colleges had adopted this plan of
organisation, composing the World Out
look group* which will be- under the di
rection of the Association Friendly coun
cil, and have met with success the mor
ale of - the colleges having been raised
one hundred per cent.
Though there will be no regular meet
ing of all of the members in the Hut
each week as is the plan followed by the
t Y. W. C. A. the Friendly Council will
meet each week there and from time to
time speakers of note will tnJk to the
men at meetings called in the Hut. Be
sides such meetings. W. F. Vance, stu
dent secretary on the campus, stated that
the movie machine would soon have con
nections made and the Hut will be put
, on a circuit. Social affairs also will have
a prominent place in the Hut activities.
Fresh from Army Testing, He
Will Give Work in Mental
Measurements.
Captain R. II. Wheeler has returned
to the eamipus to resume his duties ns
-professor of psychology on the Univer
sity faculty after an aibsence of sixteen
months in the psychological service ol'
the army. Captain Wheeler was one of
the first men in the United States to
enter this service, from all parts of the
United States.
"We are very glad to have I>r. Wheel
er hack," said Dr- Conklin yesterday.
"Ilis knowledge of the elaborate tech
nique of the psychology tests will he of
valine in his work here.”
Dr. Wheeler will give the course in
the spring term in mental measurements
together with Dr. Conklin, or Dr.
Wheeler may give the course alone.
Available for Lectures
Dr. Wheeler's schedule is arranged at
-present so that he will have time for lec
ture work throughout the state ou psy
chological problems and the results of
his observations in the giving of the
tests.
Psychological tests are coining to be of
increasing importance to business firms,
says Dr. Wheeler. Large corporations
are beginning to realize the value of the
tests in the selection of competent em
ployees suited for the work- One bus
iness firm in New York has saved $10,
000, it is estimated, by the use of the
tests, The tests even assist in the pre
vention of loss of life and limb in in
dustry. he says, by the avoidance of ac
cidents through the employment of men
suited mentally for t-heir assigned tasks.
Had Charge ef Tests
Captain Wheeler received his commis
sion at Camp llowie. Port Worth. Tex
as, where he was in charge of the mak
ing of psychological tests. He left the
University in September, 1017. going
first to Camp Devons, Massachusetts.
He served on the committee for stand
ardization of tests in Washington, D. C.,
and later was an instructor at Camp
Greenleaf. Georgia.
1 ’syelndogical tests assist in evening
up the mental strength of regiments,
says Dr. Wheeler. One regime rot may
have 3tX> men of exceptional ability, an
other may have only 50. The tests re
veal these facts and the men are theu
shifted so rhe.t one regiment will not
advance us-re inpidlv than another. The
tests also serve as a basis in the selec
tion of non-commissioned officers.
