EVENING AT SMOKER
IS WILD AND WOOLLY
Interfraternity Affair Filled With
“Gambling,” Drinking and
“Roughhouse”
‘ ‘ A ripping success ’ ’ is the comment
of every man who attended the inter
fraternity smoker last Saturday night
at the Commercial club. It was a
peppery evening and every man was al
lowed to do as he pleased, except for
the occasional interference of the cops.
The card games and “shooting craps’’
rtere the most interesting features of
the evening, until the stunts were pull
ed off. Some of the boys displayed
surprising skill at gambling. Every
man was given the same amount of
money at the beginning, but “Brick”
Mitchell succeeded in cornering most
of ^he loose cash before the evening
was over.
The bar at one end of the room at
which hot dogs and any kind of drink
you wanted, (but all of it was cider),
were served. “Skinny” Newton
dressed in a woolly, wild west costume
seemed to be the main barkeep and
would have adorned any California bar
tender. The big bowl of free cigar
ettes was a popular feature in the
barroom.
The stunts were undoubtedly the big
feature of the evening and everyone
thought them the best show on the
campus for some time. The U club
stunt of the death of Caesar lent a
classical element to the evening and
was considered one of the best stunts.
The Fijis brought back memories of
ancient history in portraying the ro
mance of Anthony and Cleopatra. In
this stunt “Bill” Bolger received the
praise of the house for realism in the
presentation of his part. Many of the
stunts were boxing and roughhouse
matches which always aroused enthus
iasm. The blindfolded boxing match
put on by the Sigma Chis was among
the best.
Dean Walker gave the U-Avava club
a cordial welcome to the organization
of fraternities. He praised Oregon for
the spirit of goodfellowship and co-op
eration that exists among the frater
nities. Mr. Walker has had the oppor
tunity of becoming acquainted with a
number of colleges and he says that
few schools can compare with Oregon
along this line.
Dean Morton expressed his interest
in the U club and thanked the students
for the sincere way in which they had
taken it into the inter-fraternity organ
ization. Dean Morton heartily ap
proves of the inter-house smokers and
said that few colleges could successful
ly give an affair of this sort because
of the bad feeling often existing among
the fraternities.

DEBATES TO BE FEATURE
Finals and Semi-Finals Will be Added
to Junior Week-end
Another feature was added to the
junior week-end program when Robert
W. Prescott, professor of public speak
ing in the University and secretary of
the state high school debate league,
1 announced this morning that the semi
finals as well as the final debates of
that organization would be scheduled
here, May 9 and 10.
This is the first time that the semi
finals as well as the finals have taken
place at the University and according
to Professor Prescott, the experiment
will be the first of an annual series
of debates hereafter if his plans work
out. His idea is to take advantage
of the central location of Eugene in
deferring as much railroad expense as
possible for league members. According
to the old system the -semi-finals were
held in one part of the state and then
the winners of each of these debates
had to meet somewhere else in order
! to complete the series for that year.
Returns for the Bend-Franklin de
bate which was scheduled for last
! Friday have not been received by
Professor Prescott’s secretary as yet.
However, the winner of that debate
will compete with Ashland debaters;
and Corvallis and Eugene high schools
will compete here in the semi-finals.
Then the winners from each of these
debates will finish the league series
for this year.
SPANISH CLUB TO MEET
The Spanish club will meet Thurs
day evening at 7 o’clock at the Y. W.
C. A. Bungalow. George Turnbull will
speak. All who wish to continue as act
ive members are urged to be present.
LOST—Alpha Phi pin, April 14th, in
journalism annex, commerce or on
campus between Alpha Phi House and
journalism, or commerce and 715 Thir
teenth avenue east. My name is on the
reverse. Please return to Alpha Phi

Men to Give Exhibition of Work;
Mulkey Clark, Baker, McDan
iels Proficient With Gloves
A boxing exhibition and entertain
ment by the members of the boxing
class is being planned for the last of
this month according to B. W. Haines
who is in charge of the class. The
men are becoming more interested in
their work all the time lie says and
although no date has been set as yet
the entertainment will come off soon.
“We are getting more equipment
and more room each day ’ ’ Haines said,
“and we should accomplish a great
deal. ’ ’
Haines has some real good material
to work with this term. Among the
fellows who have become proficient
with the gloves are W. Joy Mulkey,
Nelson Clark, A. E. Baker, and Lawton
McDaniels. These boys boxed at the
Elks smoker held here a few months
I ago and made a very creditable show
ing.
Haines has worked out a nevlr system
whereby the boxing class will be put
upon a competative basis. A certain
member will be asked to box against
the different members of the class
after they have all been instructed in
the various punches. Each member
will be assigned a certain punch which
he will be expected to try upon the ,
member protecting himself. The mem
ber who can place his assigned punch
the greatest number of times will be
considered the best boxer. In this
way Haines expects to develop great
efficiency in his class.
MILITARY MOVIES SHOWN

should be of great interest to men in
the R. O. T. C.
