This is the problem confronting one of the girls of the advanced class in bacteriology un der Professor A. It. Sweetser, head of the botany department of the University. Another member of the class is going to study the mercenary germs, those found on money, another is going to find how many gain their education from books, and postage stamps are going to come in for their share of the investiga tion. Pishes, old pieces of soap, shaving brushes, and tooth brushes are only a few of the other haunts of the bacteria which are going to be raided and their in mates catalogued. When the term is over the suffering bacteria are to be subjected to a further indignity. Their shortcomings and faults are to be put into theses by their tor mentors, and so be published to the world.

LEGISLATORS FRIENDLY Members Appear to Favor Education Bills, Says President. The attitude in general toward educa tional institutions is friendly at the leg islature, according to President P. L. Campbell, who returned this morning from Salem, where he has been attend ing the legislature for a few days. The request for the $100,000 appropriation for the University will be presented to the ways and means committee next week, and there the money allowed for such appropriations will be figured out according to the six per cent limitation. It is not known, yet, just how much will be available. Members of the legislature have been extended an invitation to visit the Uni versity during the session of the legis lature. but owing to influenza conditions,.

Everything is ready for the first North west Conference basketball game of the season, which will be played on the lo cal floor Monday evening between the Wash ington State College five and the University quintet The game is billed to shove off at 7:00 o’clock awl every able bodied stu dent should be among those present. This will also he the first conference game since the S. A. T. C. went to its happy hunting grounds. The Univer sity hand will be out and yell kings Carter and Houston will he on the floor to lead the crowd in their vocal contri butions to the evening’s entertainment. The Oregon team looked good in the game with Willamette. They had their weak points, but they also had some strong ones and from the present indica tions they should have an even break with the Washington State men. Washington has four old men on their squad and they are all good men. Among them is Glover, who played for them in 1915, Other old letter men are Hollman, Ivotuln and Gains. The Washington State team meets the University of Washington this week-end, which will give some dope moon which to determine the strength of the Washington “U” team. Dean II. Walker, coach of the Ore gon team, is not sure that his team will he able t<> score a win over the Wash ington Staters, although on* thing is as sured, and that is that it will be a grand little fight and the visitors are not going to have everything their own way. Fourteen men were sent in by the Tulhnnn officials as their list, although itis hardly possible that they are bring ing the whole gang with them. The big idea here is to get a gang out for the game that will give them a real recep tion. The college is back on its normal basis and the old Onego® fight should arise again Monday and Tuesday even ings- The students need n couple of games in order to get into hte proper frame of mind for the O. A. C. games which will follow. The playing of the games nt 7 o’clock will leave plenty of time for library "pig ging” afterwards, or, if such things are done, a little study. Dean Walker wish es it announced that student body tickets must he presented at the door. The tickets may be seeuired from Mr. Tiffa ny's office in the administration build ing. “Let’s go!” SECRETARY VANCE GOING To Return to College Wcrk; Vancouver Chaplain to Succeed Him. William F.

The offensive team work of the var sity was of the highest order and they carried the ball down the floor with a series of short passes that had Willam ette guessing most of the time. Eddie Durno and Frnneis Jacobberger. at for wards. proved to be a clever pair of bas ket shooters and were tied for field baskets, each getting six. Durno was high point, man as he converted three out oj four fouls. Indian Is Conspicuous The Willamette team trotted out about the biggest thing along the lines of bas ketball players that has been seen here abouts for some time in the person ol Wapato, the big Indian who held down one of th(> forward positions. Wapato tips the beam at about 200 pounds -ml when he mixed with Eddie Dumb, who will register about 120 in the shade, there was all kinds of fun. Tile contest between these two proved to be a mod ern version of David and Goliath, n.-t Eddie sneaked over -I baskets on his bij opponent. At guard, llrandon and Chnpmnt showed to advantage. The Oregon tenrc did not appear to lie extra strong on de fensive lmt they were able to pile iif a huge score by their offensive work, This plan worked all right in the game with the Methodists, lint it remains to he seen whether or not it will work against a team as strong as Washington State college. varsity seorinn steaoy.
