THE LEGISLATORS’ VISIT Seventy members of the Oregon state legislature, representing ft majority of the members of the house and senate, are to he the guests of the University of Oregon on the campus Saturday af ternoon. Depending upon whether these men are pleased with Oregon to the point of realizing the need of properly maintaining the plant here, is the pro poned $200,000 appropriation needed to start the Woman’s building and to pre vent the University from decaying dur ing (lie present period of high costs. Oregon i* not begging for the appro priation. hut is ashing it with just cause The money is vitally needed. There should he no need of exhortation toward the student body to properly entertain tlie members of the legislature during the time they are in Eugene and on the campus. There iis surely no real Ore gon maa or woman unwilling to give one afternoon when it means life to the Uni* versify; whereas if the legislature sees unfit to grant the appropriation, it. will mean a period of dull, backward" years for the state University, Nor would tills added effort lie needed fo e.nitertiiln the legislators further than to appoint guides except for the fact that the visit of the legislators is not to he ninde upon one of the regular week days. 'With their visit planned for Sat urday, It will he necessary to plan an afternoon of regular t’niversity activ ity in order t<i give the visitors a fair impression of Oregon. The one hig thing in this regard will or the assembly which has been planned for Saturday afternoon at 2:110. The leg: si! a ton's wtiVl ‘he interested in the campus, the buildings, the laboratories, hut their principal interest will he in the ei ldren of Oregon who are obtaining their education here. The assembly Is the only feasible way of bringing all the students together. And let it bring all Oregon men and women together at this time. Otherv , > it will he worthless M< nthers of the legislative party will' speak, and the meeting is to he made d. dedh worth while in other ways in I addition to showing the legislators the I type of Oregon student. When the .visitors from the state house come into the assembly Saturday it should he packed with Oregon stu dents n« it h is horn at virtually every regular Wednes lay assembly this year. | It will help much in giving the mem- { hers of the legislature In the par-tv an j ideea of the Oregon student body, th rees.ui for the $200,000 appe-opriatkiu. WHITE YOUR LETTERS NOW Several days ago the student coined made the suggestion that all Oregon *tu. dents write their representatives in the legislature telling them of Oregon’s need for the $200,000 appropriation, and ask ing their support of the measures. To day, when it is still time to reach your representative before he starts on his trip to the campus, is a good time to write. Otherwise your letter will come when your friend’s mind is busied with other thongs in. the last hurried hows of the session or after action has been taken on the Oregon measure. Make your appeal for the University effec tive by writing it now. SEE YOUR FRIEND Oregon’s request for $200,000 from the state legislature is made not for the purpose of making any great extension, of present equipment or facilities. The money is needed rather to keep up the University on its present basis and with its present standards in faculty and scholarship during the present period of high costs and comparatively smaller revenue to the University from its reg ular sources, livery Oregon man and woman must he on the job to keep the University from being compelled to face a period of backward years. When the legisla tors come to visit the campus, Satur day, 4?)ok up (ho representative from your district at home. Show him around the campus, and tell him of Oregon's needs. See your friend for Oregon. SIGMA CKIS IN TIE WITH FICIS, / Tl / Two Extra Time Points are Played; Breed Scores Four for His Team. Fiji and Sigma Chi basketball fives played to u 7 to 7 tie one of the hardest fought games of the doughnut league se ries, played in the men’s gym Tuesday afternoon. The honors of the game seem to rest with Ben Breed, the lanky center for the Sigma Chi team, who kept, his team in the running by dropping the hall in''for two baskets. The Fiji team was not running up to its usual form and the playing was very ragged. At the end of I ho time period for the game the score was tied at 1 ail, and five minutes more was allowed. I.m this period each team made one basket and when the whistle blew neither team had scored a major ity. Five minutes more was granted and each team added one more point to its score. Both teams agreed to post pone the contest until n later date. Score: Phi Unrnma Delta (7) Sigma Chi (7) Lalioche 2.F .Ilamna 1 Grey 5.F . Moore Hitter.O -- Breed 4 Huston.G . Brown Jbiin.. G .

TOPIC FOH WOMEN'S DEBATE IS COKED § - Decision of Peace Conference on German Colonies is Reason. The question for debate for the wo men's doughnut debate league was re stated this morning toy Professor Rob ert W. Prescott, head of the department of public speaking, to read “Resolved, That Germany should not bn stripped of her colonies.” This change was ne cessitated by the announcement that the peace conference has decided to do the thing which the previous debate prop osition proposed, to strip Germany of her colonies, placing them under inter national control. In restating the question this morn ing, Professor Prescott gave out a state ment on the interpretation of the sub ject for the women debaters. Rephrasing Made Necessary “This decision of the peace confer ence,” he said, “necessitates a rephrasing of the proposition for debate, iai order to give the affirmative the initial bur den of proof. The affirmative is the at tacking party, or the prosecution. The negative is the defense. Inasmuch as the peace congress in the matter of the German colonial question, undoubtedly will have tremendous sanction with any American audience, the initial burden, of proof mint lie on them who attack this action. Hence, without any material Change in the real issues of the orig inal proposition, we rephrase the ques tion so as to make the attacking party, the affirmative, give the first speech; and by his rephrasing, we likewise ad just the defend—the negative—to its normal place. Several Phraslngs Suggested Severn*! phrasing® of this question might be given: 1. Resolved, That Germany Should not be stripped of her colonies. 2. Resolved, That the action of the peace congress in stripping Germany of her colonies is to be condemned, unless it is accompanied by a solemn promise to return the colonies to Germany when that country shall have given convincing evidence of reform. 3. Resolved, That the pence of the world would be menaced by stripping Germany of her colonies “Inasmuch as questions two and three are suggestive of the issues under ques tion one, and inasmuch as question one m a negative statement of the original • proposition, for debate, it may be well to agree upon question one, as above phrased.” BlBIWTOlEMI INMl RECITAL Program will be Given Feb. 2; Three Members Added to Orchestra.

Fraternity and Sorority House .• ©roups Taken How ESSENCE CF GREAT SPIRIT! (Contmuetf trorn page one.) done to help fill an empire of unfilled j land? Oregon, Washington, and British Columbia have a greater area than most of the countries of Europe combined. More people live in Detroit, Michigan, tha nin Oregon.” The pictorial part of the lecture cover ed scenes of Oregon, Washington and British Columbia, which may be called the playground of the northwest. There were pitcures of Mt. Hood, “stark, still, regal, in appearance”; of rivers, “busy with the commerce of the world;” of fish swimming up creeks “literally into the cans;” of fish, “so thick in the streams you could walk across on their backs”— so he told the Bostonians in a lecture before a Country club. Oregon forests Praised. OC the western forests Mr. Riley could not say enough. While in an eastern port he asked from where a certain huge beam came and was told that in only one place in the world could one get such j “collossal timbers,” Oregon “I breathed deep and was very very pround,” he said. "I told them of the flaming forest kingdom in the autumn, of the trails among green growing things, of the dart ing, falling, leaping, elusive mountain streams, he said, of the perfect spruce trees that Oregon gave for airplanes; the millions of feet of lumber for ships; of the Vancouver spruce mill, the larg est in the world; the Douglas fir, 3,0tX) feet high.” Pictures of Washington included Se attle, the beautiful Spokane country, Lake Chelan, the Rig Bend wheat fields, Tacoma, Camp Lewis and American Lake with Mt. Rainier. This peak is describ eded as the most glorious thing of its kind on the continent. “The wavering colors of the Alpine glow flames and dies leaving it like a phantom in the night.” Many scenes of the Pacific highway that connects the Arctic snows with the palms of the tropics along which the tourist has mountain streams for com panions. were shown. Mr. Riley dwelt especially on the Columbia highway, pointing out places where pieces “had to be bitten out of the rocks” to make the road. Multnomah Falls he considers one of the two queens of America. The latter portion of the address was a picture trip with the Mazamas to Mt. Hood, which he termed to be a regular mountain that coming to a peak like the ones in the geography. First he led his audience on a “hipperty, skipperty. jump to the snout of the glacier.” He told of the challenge of the mountain that calls you from the summit and von have no peace uutil you answer it. The pictures showed the steady ten hour climb up ward and the three-minute slide down. The Order of the Owl was introduced showing the climbers who gathered around an all-night camp fire. The motto of the order is "make for the hay when the sun shines.” A look down into the crater of Mt. Adams, seamed and ripped with crevices gives one a most enchanting glimpse of the hereafter, smiled Mr. Riley. Crater Lake Unquestioned Jewel. Crater Lake, the unquestioned jewel of Oregon’s gems received its proper praise. People of the Fast were amazed at Oregon's roses especially when Mr. Alley told them that every one had tourist shears by which the tourist could cut all the flowers he wanted. Mr. Riley is a graduate of Harvard T’niversity and the Columbia School of Fvpression. secretary *of the Mazamas and vice-president of the Oregon Pacific Highway association. He will lecture in Salem before the state legislature Wed nesday for the purpose of securing an appropriation for the Tourist’s League. Hotel Ofcburn OLKANTNO and FRFS- : SI NO.
