There will be a large number of prep, students on the rumpus and every Ore gon man and woman should constitute himself or herself a committee of one to advertise the University. It is an opportunity to show loyalty to the col lege in a fine way, one that helps build up our Alma Mater. While tint preppors are here let us show them a grand, good time and send them home, every one, eager to return to register as freshmen. I’laas (or the festivities are well '"'dor way and nothing will be left undone lo make this Junior Week end a lime long to be remembered. The baseball nine should have the supi'iort of a thousand Oregon students yelling for victory over the University of Washington in the games Wednesday The ranoey fete on Thursday night may not be so Jnrge as in former years on account of lack of canoes, but it will be as beautiful an ever and always draws a crowd. Friday, Fuiversity -lay, will see many improvements on the campus be fore the luuheon whih maV^possibly be out of doors this year. TheNcursity track meet with O. A. t\ and the senior play complete the program for Friday. Fnvh of these events will draw large crowds and each will afford a great deal of interest and pleasure for visit ing preppors. High school interest perhaps will center in the inter scholastic meet on Saturday, but they will want to see the freshmen burn their green caps at one o’clock, and of course everyone attends the Junior 1'roirt. These plans made by the various committees, although showing many sides of college life, still leave room for personal work. So let us get busy innl bring back every Junior week end prepper, a freshman next year. TEACHERS ARE WANTED Hubert QoetJS. '00, North Beiui School Hoad, Berks Talent Here Hubert (ioot/, '00, graduate of tin* I’nivorsity law school, now superintou dent of schools at North Hoad, visited the I'niversity last Thursday. M.r. (ioot/. was looking for teachers for the North Bend schools for the coming year and already had \ isited Hood Col logo, the State Normal school and the Oregon Agricultural College. Mr. (loot/ has boon at North Bend for two years and has had very good success in his work there. Buring his administration the enrollment of the schools have grown to something be tween HOC and 900, an increase of about 250. DTMENT TELLS TI ABOUT TWO PARISES City in July and January Very Different Places, in His Opinion “Life in Paris (luring last July and January” was the topic which Colin V. Dyment, dean of the School of Jour nalism at the University of Washington and former professor of journalism at the University of Oregon, enlarged up on in his talk before the members of the Y. W. C. A. at their regular weekly meeting Thursday afternoon. Mr. Dyment brought out the contrast very admirably of the Paris in July when the big drive was on and the January Paris after the armistice was signed. During the drive everything was for protection, while in January, the lights and the great paintings were already being replaced. In describing the buildings, Mr. Dy inent said that Paris does not look as wo would imagine it, like New York or Chicago, but more like Eugene, for Paris has no skyscrapers. The people are packed in very close and Mr. Dy ment said, “I’ll venture the area of Paris is not greater than that of Port land, although the population is much larger. ’ ’ Prices in Paris are absolutely prohib itive, said Mr. Dyment, who, when he first went over, went to the places where one pays from $0 to $15 for a single meal. After trying this for a while, Mr. Dyment decided to try one of the so called “Holes in the Wall” and contrary to the ideas of many people, he got so good a meal for $1 to $5 that he was first in line before the doors were opened the next morning. When the military officers came to I'aris, Mr. Dyment amused himself by letting them go to tlie high priced places to eat for a while, then he would take them to a “hole in the ground” and he said that he always found them in line the next meal time. Mr. Dyment also told of some of the characteristics of the French people. FORMER STUDENTS REPORTED VERT ILL _ Carl B. Fenton Said to Have Slight Chance for Recovery Carl H.

Ills ailment was thought due to lumbago, resulting from a slight at tack of influeii/a which he had while stationed at Itrest, France.

VICTORY BOND SALE URGED Tlio first- report of Victory bonds purchased 1" members of the faculty mul stuili'iits as ro|iortoil at R. O. T. I', headquarters up to yestordav morning was $5150. It is \orv desirable that Oregon got in the game, as the war department, according to Lieutenant Colonel Raymond C. Baird, assistant commanding officer to Colonel W. 11. l\ Bowen, will give a recommendation of some kind to the ten universities in the I'nited States making the best showing in the purchase of Victory bonds.

McPherson, Georgia Doris Marie Ball is one of the select group of Univresity women to be represented in the service flag. She is a reconstruction aide in the service of the government at Ft. McPherson, Georgia, now and has been there since last December. Miss Ball was in college for three years leaving school in 1915. She took the reconstruction course offered at Reed College last summer and was sent to New York in November to re ceive her passport for overseas work. The signing of the armistace cancelled the orders and she with a unit of ten physio-therapists was sent to Ft. Me Pherson to assist in hospitals at that place. She writes that the patients under their care number 2000 and are all overseas wounded, veterans of the Argonne, St. Mihiel and other big drives. She adds that she will remain in the service as long as there is any need of her work which will probably be until the first of the new year. | GLEE TRIP CONSIDERED Don Orput, Men’s Advance Agent, to Try for Portland Date Don Orput, acting as advance agent ; for the Men’s Glee Club, will go to Portland Sunday in order to complete arrangements for a concert which the men hope to give there on Saturday, | May :i. Albany and Salem have al ready asked for the concert on the 1 same week-end, but no trip will be made unless the Portland concert is booked also, according to Dean Wal ker, student manager. “We will know by Monday whether the trip can be made or not,’’ said Walker today. “If the concert is given in Portland at all it will be given in one of the larger theaters, but if it can’t be satisfactorily arranged that way the club will not make the trip since it would not be worth while to give a performance there to a small audience. ’’ If plans are completed the three con certs will be given May 1, 2 and 3.
