Sin h is the decision id’ the inter fraternity athletic council and, providing tin' Sigma Xus and Fijis have coughed up the said two bones in the rules, the spec ial rs will see a thriller from start to finish. Hollowing the Fiji-Sigma Xu game the ltetas and Kappa Sign will stage the first bout in the second division. Practice games have kept the gym floor busy for the last few days and judging from the sounds which emanate from the gym windows, a good part of the games ore played with the mouth. I vever, plenty of pep and zeal will more than make up for the lack in skill. Stars Oat for Laurels. As the season comes nearer numerous stars are developing out of the conglom erate mob ol would be aspirants for laur els. “Fat" Mautz is acting as the main battering ram for the Kappa Sigs while Mort Brown looks like a sure winner for the Deltas. Askey, the Hells’ other star man, hasn’t as yet learned the type id’ struggle, commonly misnamed basketball, which Kill Hayward referees annually, but if cleverness can offset roughness \skey will be there with bells. The Sigma Xu quintet will be bolstered up consul erablv by the return of Hilbert and it looks as though, with the aid of Kill Hollenbeck and Don Van BosRirk, their warriors will be among the leaders of the league. When the I'ijis have Thun, (Tray and Hitter for their aggregation so it looks as though the first game will be a fast one and start the season off with a rush.

L. Campbell and graduate of the University in the class of 1916, who is in France with the 63rd Field Artillery, writes that he has now been on five fronts and has been in some of the heaviest fighting of the last few days before the armistice was signed. The letters dated October 119 and November 3 follow: “We are now on our fifth front, hav ing added two more to our list since I last wrote. You can imagine how much j time it takes to tear out big guns like j ours, dismantle them, lead them up and travel by our truck trains trying condi tions very often of heavy mml and heav ier traffic, to our next stand. “Then we go through process of “lay ing” our, surveying, digging, and putting up the guns again. My work in the Orien tal detail is usually preliminary to the actual firing. We go ahead and survey the ground where the gun pits are to be dug. We have to locate the positions ac curately. Hoped For End of War. “Things are moving fast these days and I can scarcely wait for the papers. We are hoping the end is near, or has come. But in the meantime you should have seen what I have seen these last few days. The endless line night and day, day and night, of our boys going up to the big fight, always smiling, always cheerful, cussing away in the darkness maybe but still good natured. “And then wouAded coming back. Nev er a groan, never a complaint. Lots of them hobbling along, bandaged and bloody but still smiling and able to crack a joke about the whole thing. If you could have seen that line of our boys going up, and the long lines of grey-greeh Boche pris oners coining back, and could have com pared the two I think thnt you would have known as wo did thnt such men could never in this world have conquered boys like those going up to the fight. Boche Glad to Bo Taken. “Of course the boche were played out, were dirty and disheartened, though some of them seemed to he happy enough to bo taken prisoners. On the other hand our hoys wore fresh and eager to get in to it. Fvon so there was no comparison. “Perhnps it would he fairer to take our hoys coining out. of the fight, wounded and unkempt, but there was the same smile of confidence and courage which, we saw ns they went up. And the boche, old men and young hoys, straggling along not caring much for anything seemingly, a stupid, animal type on the whole except where one found a haughty Prussian of ficer. “We followed very closely behind the front lines the other day. Such sights and sounds I cannot describe, but I can never forget them. There was the continual barrage shrieking and tearing over our heads while the long line of troops mov ed up. The advancing lines rushed a Her man infested wood whose edge was tinsel bound apparently, with the sun sparkling; off of it. But the rnt-tat-tat of the type writers of death’ told only too plainly j what our boys were going up against. Three waves, then some tanks went up. and there was no more tinsel. Gorman Shells Burst. “Then there was the bursting of the j Herman shells all about us. For several minutes we would lie flat with the ' shrapnel falling all around us. then run- | ning a few stops we would drop again, i and so wo managed to reach an old Her- j man dugout and later some Herman i trenches taken only a few hours before by our men. “An aeroplane dropped a small bomb and it exploded just twenty-seven feet i from us. killing a horse, but not touch- ! ing us. Lots of fun this, if they do not Come any closer.” FOWLER BUYS INTO PAPER Former Editor of Emerald Becomes a Joint Owner of Bend Bulletin. Henry N.

The one-act fantasy ::The Nation’s New Year,” written in French verse by Miss Miriam Page, graduate of last year, was given to a crowded house at Guild hall yesterday afternoon at 3 o’clock. Eighteen students of Miss Page's French class in the University high school pro duced the play in costume. In answer to the wish of the audience the production was given twice. The play represents Father Time who asks his eight daughters, who are the allied nations, what gift they wish from the New Year. Each asks for a doll. The New Yenr enters and bestows these dolls which represent what each nation has gained by tlje world war. Germany, who is present, is silent, weeping. But Amer ica finally leads her to the New Year who gives her his greatest gift, “Demo cracy.” The two characters, the Dough Boy and the Gob, who can’t parley vous. were especially liked. Miss Tage took honors last year in both French and Latin. She was a major in Romance languages. “Novelty Trio" for dances. Tel. 940.
