TEACHERS' SALARIES RISE More Positions Open for Athletic Coaches Than Bureau Can Fill “ ‘Many are called but few are chosen’ is not the case with us,” declared Professor C. A. Gregory, director of the appointment bureau of the University, “but many would be chosen if they would call." A large number of applications have come in for both men and women ■ who can coach athletics and take charge of physical education, and the bureau has comparatively few teach ers to recommend, says Professor Gregory. Salary schedules are being revised throughout the state, and the upward trend is steadily increasing he says. Umatilla county has provided for a minimum salary of $1200 for all schools, including those in rural dis trffcts, and other counties are con sidering similar action. Gowns, Studes And Human Machine Entertain At Hall Turkish harem girls, clowns, and kaisers sported amiably to gether at the big carnival, for the town girls in the University, to which Hendricks hall girls were hostesses Saturday night. Every town girl was bidden to appear at the hall, and at 8 o”clock the fun began. Freshman girls in the hall gave tableau interpretations of the old poem, “That Old Sweetheart of Mine.” Beginning with the bash ful, barefooted child in the pink • sunbonnet, to the beautiful bride, the many sweethearts of the hero were pictured by the first-year girls. Clever clowns, as trees, the poor little rabbit, and the cruel hunter frolicked and adventured by the side of a babbling brook, safely ensconced in a drinking glass, all at the command of the sopho mores. The trials of the students in finding out who was registered was shown by the juniors. The seniors gave a fitting cli max to the clever stunts by show ing an almost human" “machine,” and its “trainer.” The “machine” talked, smiled and kicked its feet. ! The only tax on its powers which seemed to be too much for it was its attempt to sing. Or possibly the theme w.as too touching to the “mechanical” heart of the “ma chine.”’ At any rate it ran down, so said the “trainer." After the stunts, dancing and ice cream cones entertained the guests, especially the latter, of which there seemed to be an in exhaustible supply. “We hope to make this an annual affair,” said . Miss Lotta Hollopeter, president of Hendricks hall, “so that the girls living on the campus may be come better acquainted with the girls living in town.” ELLSWORTH TO TALK ON PUBLICATION WORK FORTY YEARS IN MAGAZINE FIELD THEME OF ADDRESS FOR ASSEMBLY “Forty Years of Publishing” will be the address given: by W. W. Ells worth, prominent eastern publisher, who will address the Thursday morn ing assembly this week. Mr. Ells worth was scheduled to speak on the life of Theodore Roosevelt, but word has Just been received from him, by Karl Onthank, executive secretary, announcing the change in theme. Hr. Ellsworth has had a great deal •of publishing experience, tsaid .Mr. Onthank, having been associated with the Scribner’s publishing house, and the Century company for 40 years. During this time he has had an inti mate acquaintance with nearly every author and writer of the time. His ex periences with prominent authors and also with less prominent ones will furnish very interesting material for his address, according to Mr. On thank. Mr. Ellsworth has had a great deal evening and will be entertained at dinner by Prof, and Mrs. T. A. Larre more of the law school. At nine o’clock Thursday morning a meeting has been planned for him in the jour nalism annex where he can meet and talk with students in auhtorship, rhe toric, journalism and the English de partment. A Thursday noon luncheon has also been arranged in his honor, at which i the members of Ye Tabard Inn chap-: ter of Sigma Upsilon will be hosts, j Y. W. Cabinets to Meet The members of the old and new cabinets of the Y. W. C. A. will hold a supper at the Bungalow tonight and talk over plans for the coming year. The entire new cabinet has not vet been appointed but Marjory Holaday, new president of the organization, after her return from Cleveland. O., where she is attending the national convention of the Y. W. C. A., willj announce the newly appointed girls. Minnesota Student* Earn Way Out of 6080 students at the Uni versity of Minnesota 3000 are self supporting. Bib Carl And Nish Chapman Mentioned For President; Benefiel Out For Vice-President; Candidate For Emerald Editor Unopposed By The Deady Bug So far as can be discovered, not a man on this campus has any intention of aspiring to the office of president of the associat ed students next year, at least according to his own statement. And yet this is an excellent year to run for any office, because it is so manifestly “being done” and therefore the best form in the world. The rather lengthy ballot with many hotly contested fights which marked the pre-war election days is returning this year, according to every indication, and when candidates'feel the urge forcefully enough, plenty of them probably will see that their names are put on the ballot Wednesday, May 5. Prospective candidates when ap proached on the matter of running for office are surprised and shocked that they could have been thought of for the office, in quite the time-honored wav. They won’t say that they will run, but equally emphatically they won’t say they won’t run. Carl and Chapman Mentioned Two junior men who have been thought of all year as candidates for president of the student body are Wilbur Carl and Thomas -I. (Nish) Chapman. (Please observe the strict ly alphabetical order that will be maintained in mentioning candidates.) it they do decide to enter the race, they are not deciding today, but are waiting, we presume, as are most of the rest, to “get the lay of the land.” Mention is made vaguely of a dark horse who intends to slip in and sur prise everyone, but he too remains among the unknown at present. A number of men, when questioned, have said they would not run for president, but they may change their minds. Jack Benefiel, a junior, is the only candidate so far announced for vice president of the student body. He was in the aviation service for two years during the war and this year has been manager of football. He was recently elected to- Friars and is an honor student. ■ I Secretary to be Close Race One of the closest races will prob ably be for secretary of the student body. No woman seems to wish to claim this place at present. Lyle Bryson and Nell Warwick have been mentioned for the office but have not said definitely that they will run. Harry A. Smith, a junior, who is managing editor of the Emerald this year, has been mentioned for editor of the Emerald. He is a member of Sigma Delta Chi, national honorary men’s journalism fraternity, and of Sigma Upsilon, national writers’ so ciety, and is a major in journalism. So far he is alone in the field. Ray Vester, a junior, has been men tioned for business manager of the Emerald. As yet, he is unopposed. Two Up for Oregana For editor of the Oregana, two can didates have definitely announced their intention of running, Velma Rup ert and Raymond Laurence. Both are sophomores and majors in the school of journalism. Both have worked on the Oregana staffs this year and last and also on the Emerald staff. Warren Kays will run for business manager of the Oregana. He has been business manager of the Emerald since January and before that time was advertising manager. He is a member of the business staff of the Oregana. No men have been mentioned as yet for senior men on the • student council. Three are to be elected. One woman fpr senior woman on the council has definitely announced her candidacy, Lois Macy, president of Pan Hellenic this year, and a member of Eutaxian and Kwama. Two senior women are to be chosen. Only one man has definitely decided to run for junior man on the council, Ned Twining. He is a member of To Ko-Lo and was manager of freshman football. Two men are to be chosen for this office. Only one junior woman is elected for the council, so this office will probably be hotly contested. Eleanor Spall is the only woman definitely announced so far for this office. She has been on the Emerald staff for the past two years, is a member of the Oregana staff, the Y. W. cabinet, Kwama and Tre Nu. One sophomore man is to be chosen for the council and a junior man for the'executive council, as well as yell leader and three members of the ath letic council.

Benefiei MS Trading Planted Pin Is Latest Indoor Sport For Women Planting a fraternity pin in preference to a diamond ring lias its advantages and disad vantages. One apostle of the class of 1923 has almost become reconciled to the ring method. Having but a short time ago planted his fraternity pin he was sadly surprised and shaken yesterday evening to learn from a brother that the woman of his" choice had been seen wearing a rival fraternity pin. Being unable to reach her by telephone be cause of the lateness of the hour he contented himself by brood ing over the affair most of the evening. The next morning a ssoon as time would permit he sought out the betraying one only to learn that it was a false rumor which boiled down, was that another engaged friend and her self had for the novelty of it traded pins for a' short time. Which all goes to show that hats and umbrellas are not the only things that women like to borrow from one another.

BASEBALL TEAM TO TOUR NORTH Games Arranged With Four College Nines; 12 To Go MANY VETERANS WIN POSITIONS ON VARSITY Coach Satisfied With Men's Condition, Though Practice Has Been Short By Floyd Maxwell Coach Huntington and 12 players will depart Thursday afternoon £gr Seattle where they will open the con ference baseball season against the University of Washington*" jiim', on Friday afternoon. This will bIJShe first game of an eight day trip whicji the lemon-yellow team is taking through the northern country, play ing the University of Washington, Washington State College, University of Idaho and Whitman college. “Washington will put up th#s hard est game, I believe,” CeaSft Hunting ton said this morning,■> “alttrough all the northern yearns ,, appeal stronger than they wore last season.” “Shy” feels fairly optimistic about the trip in spite of the inclement weather which has prevented practice for the lemon-yellow sqjdul for the past two weeks. The ram has been general all along the coast, however, and none of the teams have been much better off in the matter of getting practice than the Oregon nine. Four Pitchers Going Four pitchers will be taken along on the trip, Jacobson, Berg, Knud sen and F. Jacobberger making up the quartette. In the receiving position “Spike” Leslie will <lo the work. Spike has developed rapidly since the first workout and has proven himself a good man with the stick. Vince Jac obberger, who has also been working out in the receiving position in a satisfactory manner, will be taken on the trip and may work in the infield. Vince is a fast inflelder but was used in the receiving position in his freBh man year on account of the dearth of catchers. Shy has also worked him there on the Varsity squad this sea son but is planning on using him in the infield from now on.. Lind Back on First Captain Lind will hold down his old position on first. Herm has a ten foot reach when it comes to stopping them out around the Initial bag. For the second base position there are a number of likely candidates and Coach Huntington has not definitely decided upon a man for the place. From all indications the choice will be from, Liebe, Collins, Black and Hous ton. Skeet Manerud, who has been playing a fast game at shortstop, will hold down that position on the trip north, while Jay Fox will hold down third.
