Whole Team Will Be in Good
Shape for Stanford Fray
Says Trainer Hayward
SEVENTEEN MEN ON
HUNTINGTON’S SQUAD
Odds 10 to 7 on Cardinals as
Southerners Are Rated
High by Critics.
Slipping silently away last night after
the din and uproar caused by a thousand
throats joined in giving the “Osky” and
singing “Mighty Oregon,” Coach “Shy”
Huntington and seventeen football play
ers are on their way to Palo Alto today,
where they will meet the Stanford Uni
versity eleven in one of the most impor
tant games in Oregon’s schedule this
season.
Oregon must win every game from now
on if it hopes to be the team to represent
the West at the big Pasadena game New
Year’s day. The Stanford game is going
to prove one of the hardest of the year,
and according to information from the
South, Stanford is confident of winning
"Mart” Howard, “Rudd” Brown.
“Spike” Leslie. “Brick” Leslie, “Tiny”
Shields. “Fat” Mautz, “Ed” Ward. “Bill”
Reinhart, “Bill” Steers. “Frankie” Hill.
"Reed” Kinney, “Scotty” Strachan,
George King. “Pete” Mead, “.Take” .Tacob
berger, “Nish” Chapman and “Bart”
Laughlin made up the Oregon squad
which boarded the private car in the
Southern Pacific yards last night, which
is well on its ways to the sunny South
this morning. They will arrive at San
Francisco tomorrow morning and a light
signal workout will be run through on the
Olympic Club athletic field tomorrow’
afternoon. The run up to Palo Alto will j
be made Saturday morning where the
game will be called at 2:30 o’clock Satur
day afternoon.
Assistant Graduate Manager .Tack Ben
fiel left Monday night for the South to
look after accommodations for lemon
yellow squad, and has made all the ad
vance arrangements for taking care of
the team.
"I am going to have ’em all in first
class shape,” said Bill Hayward, when
asked of the condition of the team. There
is no doubt that Oregon will be greatly
handicapped on account of injuries in en
tering the game against the Cardinals
Saturday, but if Stanford wins the game,
they will have to beat a righting team.
Final liniment rubs and steam towels
were handed out last night by a score of
“rubbers” under the direction of Hay
ward, and the one-day’s lay-off which the
team will be forced to go through today
while traveling will give the bruises a
chance to ease up. Half the first string
eleven is suffering from severe bruises.

Sigma Delta Chi
Neophytes to Orate
Before Mob Today
H you happen to see five human
beings running around the campus
sporting a “soup and nuts” armour,
don’t think that campus clean-up day
lias arrived or that it is Sunday
morning. The five represent neo
phytes of Sigma Delta Chi, national
journalism fraternity, who have tak
en it upon themselves to let the
women of the University know where
all the dress suits may be found.
Incidentally they will afford diver
sion for the University in general
when they will attempt in their own
humble way to define journalism on
the library steps at 11 a. m. Those
of the stiff shirt* clan who will “jab
ber in journalism” are Carlton Lo
gan, Ray Vester, John Dierdorff,
Harry Ellis and Gene Kelty.
To keep them out of mischief dur
ing the day the nobles of the night
will put out tomorrow’s edition of
the Emerald all by themselves with
the aid of nothing but their dress
suits, to which they will fondly cling
until it has been decreed that a new
day has again arrived.
Mutual Benefit of Employer
and Worker Is Object,
I
: More than thirty men who are either
' partially or entirely self-supporting, met
1 at the Y hut Tuesday afternoon to or
ganize a campus club for the men work
ing their way through the University.
| The object of the club, according to
“Jimmy” Price, secretary in charge of the
1 employment service, is to organize the
men for the mutual benefit of both em
ployer and employee. It is planned that a
definite wage scale be set and that all
men will work in accordance with the
scale. Jobs will be more easily located
and it will be easier to find the right man
for the right job. At the meeting com
mittees were appointed and step taken fo
■the new organization to get under way.
The men will meet again next Friday
evening at 6:45 in the Y. Committees
will report and officers will be elected.
“Jimmy” Price acted as chairman and
Robert Taylor as secretary. The follow
ing committees were appointed:
Nominating Committee—.Timmy Price,
chairman: G. P. Robbins, Robert Taylor.
Committee to Draw Up Constitution—
G. P. Robbins. Allerick Hagglund.
Committee to Arrange Wage Scale—
Vernon Bullock, Henry Carpentier.
Committee to Choose Name—Edwin
Hoyt, Harold King.
Walter Holman is to have charge of
I ways and means of securing jobs.
Dr. Stuart Majors In Children;
and Her Last Name Is Dyment
|\TRODUCING—DR. BERTHA STU
™ ART, medical consultant for Univer
sity women. “Go over and talk to my
liusband. He knows all about me and,
besides, he knows how to be interviewed”
this was what Dr. Bertha Stuart-Dy
ment said, and I'll wager half of you
didn’t know that she owned that last
name Dyment. At least she is one wo
man who doesn’t owe her fame to her
husband’s name.
Hr. Stuart, so her husband says, has
always been an exceedingly busy wo
man. When she was head of the Phy
sical Education Department here in the
l niversity, she became one of the best
known women in the state on account
"f the work she did and on account of
'he many girls who passed through her
hands medically and otherwise.
; ®he left here in 1015 to work half
time at Reed College in order that she
•night take up the practice of medicine
among children, which was a specialty
that she’d always intended to follow
from the time of her graduation from
the university of Michigan. She wa&
just getting established in her practice
in Portland when the war came on and
she went to France. While in Franco
she practiced among children exclusive
ly, operating on tonsils daily and pre
scribing for thousands of French peas
ant children, many of whom were refu
gees. She had 2800 children in her
clinic at Blois at one time in 1918.
Dr. Stuart returned to Portland in
the spring of 1919 and joined a firm of
specialists in children’s diseases—Drs
Bilderback. Patrick and Stuart.
“When T came up here to take the
administrative work in the Collede of
Literature, Science and the Arts, she
came with me,” said Dean Dyment. So |
now you see why she's here. She is
caring for the diseases and feeding of
children here and her shingle hangs out
' - front of their home at 234 east Elev

Present System Said to Be Old;
Vigilance Committee Is
Planned.
The revision of the financial system
now in use by the associated students
was planned last night at a meeting of
the student council. A committee com
posed of students, faculty members and
alumni is to be appointed to investigate
a budgetary and student board of control
system. Recommendations, which will
culminate in the proposal of an amend
ment to the student body constitution, is
.expected to be the result of the investi
gation. The trouble with the present sys
tem, according to members of the coun
cil, is that it does not allow for enough
co-operation between the athletic and
executive councils in the expenditure of
funds.
A committee was appointed to lay
plans for the organization of a vigilance
committee. According to members of the
student council the freshman vigilance
committee is not acting stringently enough
and further measures must be taken.
The social committee, through action
taken last evening is to have more com
plete charge of the regulation of college
dances. A ruling was passed giving them
the power to take action against all im
proper dancing at student body dances.
The council will enforce the ruling
made last year against the holding of any
impromptu dances upon the campus.
Permission for all dances must be ob
tained through the offices of the dean
of women and the dean of men.
SCOTCHMAN * WANTS
TO ATTEND OREGON
James Brown, of Glasgow, Inquires of
Registrar About Courses and
Requirements.
That the University of Oregon is not
altogether unknown outside the United
States is proved by the letter received by
Carletou BJ. Spencer, from James Brown,
Glasgow, Scotland. Brown wrote inquir
ing about the University. Here is part
of his letter:
“I should be very grateful to you if you
would furnish me with the necessary in
formation that could clear away this
cloud of perplexity that I have. Perhaps
the only way it might be cleared away
would be by sending me your “Univer
sity Calendar.” or “Prospectus,” describ
ing all about the entrance and final exam
inations for the “Arts Degree.”
“You see I intend immigrating in the
early spring to a place called Portland,
Oregon. This will cause a split from my
studies here, and must necessarily mean
a readjustment to new methods. I am
not prepared to allow this break since I
have not yet completed my preliminary
examination to the University here.
“But the call to Portland is so strong
that I cry upon your aid to help me with
my ambitions.”
KAPPAS ALL IN Y. W C. A.
Membership Campaign Lags; Town Girls
Difficult to Reach.
Kappa Kappa Gamma is the only house
on the campus which has a 100 per cent
membership in the Y. IV. C. A. Marjorie
Holaday, president of the organization,
says that the campaign has not met with
the enthusiasm that had been expected.
At the present time there are about 150
members, and $”50 has been pledged.
“The greatest difficulty is in reaching
the town girls,” said Miss Holaday. “I
wish that every girl who does not live in
an organized house would stop in at the
bungalow and join.” The campaign wil
be continued throughout the week.
Faculty Favors Democratic Candidate and En
dorses Compact; But Half of Students
Participate in Emerald Straw Vote—
Debs Has 28 Admirers.
With a load of 347 votes Senator Warren G. Harding won the Emerald straw
vote yesterday, and the league of nations was disapproved by a vote of 471 to
36!). The count, on the presidential candidates was Harding, 618, and Cox 271.
Cox was favored by the faculty 16 to Harding's 12.
Thirty-four voted for the league with reservations. For president, Eugene
V. Debs received 28 votes. Watkins received four votes.
The noticeable feature of the voting was that the faculty were much strong
er for the league of nations than the students. Twenty-one of the faculty fa
vored the league and only five opposed.
The junior class gave Harding the biggest ratio .approximately three to one.
the freshmen next with two and a half to one, and the sophomores and seniors a
little less than two to one.
The senior gave the Republican nominee 75 votes and the Democratic nomi
nee 45 votes. Debs received five and Watkins one. The fight on the league was
unfavorable by the small majority of three votes. Sixty to fifty-seven was the
count.
Harding 128, and Cox 40 was the way the juniors decided it. They also went
against the league strong—101 to 62. The juniors cast five votes for Debs and
two for Watkins. Thirteen were favorable to the league with the reservations.
Of the sophomore votes, Harding received 185 and Cox 85, and the vote on
the league was 144 to 113 against. Only three of the class of 1923 departed old
party lines sufficiently to cast their vote for Debs.
The freshman class decided as follows: Harding 165, Cox 62, unfavorable to
the league 114, and favorable 95. Debs received eleven votes.
The special students and graduate students maintained nearly the same ratio
as the regular ones except, that the league was not snowed under to such a great
extent. The votes were Harding 25, Cox 15, unfavorable to league 23, and favor
able 19.
A total of.889 votes were cast, and of these 26 were faculty members. The
polls were closed at 3 o’clock yesterday afternoon.
WOMEN SIT Fill
CilPIION FOR FUNDS
Dance in Men’s Gym to Start
Drive for Money.
A dance is being sponsored by the
women’s league to be given Saturday
night in order to raise funds. Plans at
present for this affair are to have, be
sides the regular dancing, fortune telling
booths, cider and doughnut sales and a
feature dance. Spectators will be admit
ted to the balcony for a small amount.
The girls in charge of the dance are
Mildred Lauderdale, general chairman;
Rputh Griffin, refreshments; Helen Nel
son, fortune-telling booths; Dorothy Mc
Kee. cashier; Martha Westwood, feature,
and Lucile McOorkle, to secure the gym
nasium.
The women’s league is ginving every
member of the student body a chance to
contribute to the last $5000 which must
be raised on the $25,000 installment for
the women’s building fund. Each girl
will be asked to give 50 cents or more,
and the boys will contribute through
attending the douce given under the aus
pices of women's league in the men’s
gymnasium next Saturday night, October
30.
All girls living in organized groups will
be reached through committees working
in the various houses. For the benefit of
those who do not live in organized groups
a table will be found in front of the li
brary this morning where the girls can
make their contributions.
The need for the last $5000 is essential
because if it is not raised, the $25,000
installment from the state will be lost.
Ike women’s building was started after
the state legislature agreed to give $100,
000 for the building, if friends of the
University would raise the other $100,
000. Three installments, or $75,000 have
already been raised, and but $5000 of the
last installment is in sight.
The women’s league, feeling that the
building was essentially for the women,
decided that the women of the University
should contribute to the fund and is giv
ing them an opportunity to do so this
week. Fifty cents is the minimum contri

ELECTION NOT HOLIDAY
“Classes As Usual” Announcement Is
Damper to Frivolity
Plans for election <lay picnics, par
ties and other frivolities were rele
gated to the junk pile Wednesday fol
lowing the announcement of Karl Ont
hnnk, secretary to President Campbell,
that school sessions would be held
Tuesday, November 2, election day. The
school law was amended some years ago
requiring all schools in the state to con
tinue work unless the polling places
were actually in the building where the
sessions are held, according to Mr.
Onthank. The sorrrow which this news
may occasion in some quarters will prob
ably be offset to some degree by the
fact that a holiday is to be granted on
Armistice day.

Upon the cooperation of the studepta
of the University largely depends the
success of the Armistice day program,
according to Harold Wells who is in
charge of the program committee ar
ranging for the observance of that daj
in Eugene. An effort is being made, he
said, tp have all the upper classmen
march in the parade as well as the R. O.
T. C. which includes most of the under
classmen.
The chief event of the morning is to
be the parade. Besides the war veterans
of the late war, the Civil War, the Mex
ican war, and the Spanish-American
war there will be several other groups
and organizations represented. The bands
will be a notable feature of the parade.
The university, the high school and the
city band will all be present if the pro
gram arrangements work out accord
ing to the plans of Mr. Wells.
Judge McCamant May Speak.
An effort is being made by the com
mittee in charge to have Judge Wallace
McCamant of Portland deliver the prin
cipal address of the day. Ben Dorrii
head of the local American Legion, will
probably give a short talk as will sev
eral other prominent local inen. Mr.
Dorris is a graduate of the class of ’15
at the University.
The Men’s Glee Club of the Univer
sity also will offer a part of the enter
tainment to be given in the armory af

as these are to be presented at the ar
mory services.
A dance under the auspices of the
Veterans of Foreign Wars will complete

Coach Bartlett Makes Shifts
for Chemawa Game.
Ooaeli Kon Bartlett yesterday announ
ced as his tentative lineup for the game
Saturday between the Oregon “Frosh”
and Chemawa Indians the following: full,
Spring Johnson; quarter, Chapman; halv
es, De Paul aud Parsons; ends, Gram
and Digman; tackles, Reed and King;
guards, Byler and Itisley; center, Dunn.
Coach Bartlett will take eighteen men
on the trip and expects to give every
man a chance to play at -some time in
the game. “It is hard to predict the'
outcome, but I think the ‘Frosh* have
a little edge on the Indians,” Coach
Bartlett said.
The average weight of the “Frosh”
team is around 170 pounds. The line
outweighing the backfield.
Several men will start the game Sat
urday who were not in the Oregon-Pa
cific contest. Dunn will play center in
place of Bill Johnson, who was injured
iu the Pacific battle. Risley will’have a
chance at left guard, taking the place
of “Slim” Johnson, who will be unable
to play. De Paul and Parsons, who
have been showing up well at halves,
will replace Whipple and Webber. Gram
will take the place of Mooers at left end.
Last week the Chemawa Indians beat
the O.A.C. Rooks by a score of 14-7.
