FIB WEEK-END CUSH Peppy Athletic Feature Added To Program; Junior Prom To Be Flowerless With betting odds in favor of the frosh, and the sophs already having all the town ambulances engaged for Saturday afternoon, the pushball con test promises to be one of the most thrilling and nerve-racking of the athletic events of the Junior Week end program, according to Jack Ben efiel, publicity manager ror Junior Week-end. This event is scheduled for 1 o’clock sharp Saturday on Kin caid field and no men will be barred from admittance. Freshmen and soph omore men are expected to turn out en masse for this event, and teams with fifty men on a side will be chosen. “This will be a big event,” said Beneflel enthusiastically, “with more fight, more scrap, and more fun than any other game in the country.” The game used to be played on this cam pus but has not been tried for sev eral years. Francis Jacobberger, as chairman for athletic events, has been able to obtain a pushball from the Multnomah Amateur Athletic club in Portland, and it win be sent down here for the occasion. No Game for Mollycoddles A few bloody noses, torn garments, and mussed hair is expected, but the betting odds are already in favor of the frosh who are ready to get started even now. However, the game is to be an absolutely “square mix”. The winning team will be decorated with an iron cross, leather medal or some such emblem of bravery, it has been announced. Pushball met with great favor as a sport in the army and was indulged in to great extent. Since its approv al in the army it has been decided to rejuvinate. it on this campus as one of the Junior Week-end events. It has also been announced, as an added attraction for the week-end that two airplanes, belonging to the Oregon, Washington, Idaho Airplane company will be here. Special rates of $7.50 for students have been ar ranged for, in order to get a bird’s eye view of Eugene, while other pas sengers will have to pay $10 for the chance. A permanent aero club is expected to be organized here in the near future to be affiliated with such clubs in Portland and other neigh boring towns. Regular club rooms will be fixed up and this will be a permanent organization in Eugene. The flying will be on the army field west of town. The planes will fly over the campus during the Week end. Flowers Held Unnecessary The dance committee has decided upon the request of girls from a number of houses that flowers will be eliminated at the Junior Prom, because of the scarcity and the in convenience as well as the embar rassment to the guests. It is felt by the committee that since the decor ations are to be very profuse with college colors and other novelties that the lack of the corsages will not be noticed at the Prom. Since the movement is general it is hoped that all the men will observe this and will not feel that they are showing a lack of appreciation to their ladies by not sending flowers at this time.
