The fourth annual Red Cross roll cull membership drive will begin on the cam pus today under the leadership of Miss Mozelle llair., secretary of the extension dii ision, and a student committee.

Although the. war lias been over for two years there are 26,414 men still be ing cared for in military, naval, and pub-, lie health service hospitals who arc suf fering from injuries or diseases received in war service. Homelike cheer and comforts are given these men by the Red Cross. Claims of service men for compensation and insurance are still be ing handled through the Red Cross and many men and families look to this or ganization for help in getting re-adjust ment. The Red Cross must; also be prepared for relief work in th^ event of such dis asters as those of Corpus Christi, San Francisco and Halifax. A dollar given before such a thing happens will do move good than a hundred dollars given afterward, according to a statement made by Red Cross officials. Three million European children will be absolutely witluut shelter, food, or medical care this winter except for such aid as Herbert Hoover may be able to get to them through the backing of several American organizations, of which the Red Cross is the largest. Funds for this work must be raised by some such means as the Red Cross has adopted. Health Educai'on Is Phase. Besides these relief measures of the Red Cross the organization is constant ly carrying an educational health cam paign among the people of the country. Chief among the erfhses is the fight against tuberculosis, from which 150,000 people die annually and several million are constantly sick. To secure the money necessary to conduct these diversified charities the Red Cross had adopted the plan of hav ing an annual canvass of the nation. Every person connected with the Uni versity is urged to subscribe a dollar to the cause by those in charge and a one hundred per cent membership. is hoped for. _S._J!_ DR. L. L.

S. C. TROJANS lim !EI California Eleven Scores Thret Times Against Varsity • In Turkey Day Game. ? LOSS OF STEERS FELT; LONG TRIP HAS EFFECT Two Touchdowns in Final Period; Poor Condition and Reaction Blamed -r \ It was a badly crippled team, one lacking materially and morfllv ' of the absence of Captain Bill Steers, that went down to defeat at the of the University of Southern California football team in Pasadena on Thanksgtv* ing^lay. The game was played at Tour uuinent park, tlie scene of the greet Harvard-Oregou battle of less thaci a year since. The weather, too, acbririUng to the veterans of that nationally fambda classic was very must like that of' thfe"‘ previous New Year’s day — the day thlt • the lemon-yellow warriors showed all; the United States the meaning of “Oregbfr Fight.” - - One great difference in the setting" bf the two games however was the state of mind,'of the individual members ot respective Oregon teams. The team that played Harvard had that confide&e bom of prime physical condition. They bad had two weeks of twice a day prac tice after their thousand mile journey to the south, plenty of time to retdoVe the inevitable train kinks. They’had worked toward this game for almost' a month. It was a grand climax. ' ■'" » But Two Days Practice. On the other hand the team that played the U. S. C. Trojans had but two days of practice after the Jong traih journey in which to limber up. Steers was not in the game. The team had been put in prime condition for the O. At O. game and from prime condition there is always a reaction. The U. S. C. game came as an anti-climax. From the kick-off the Trojan's’ ad vantage was evident. Oregon failed to make yardage a single time, Nor di^ she complete a single pass. The southern university scored its first touchdown'is the first period after receiving a punt near the middle of the field apd ad vancing the ball by a series of line plays and end runs to the Oregon eight yard line. The quarter ended with the scofe U. B. C., 7; Oregon, 0. Oregon On Defensive. From the .second quarter throughout tin; game Oregon played a defensive gajBue punting on tiie first and second downs continually. The Trojana scored again in the final period. After comi>i$|ihg' a pass |ir ten yards Leadingham to Defn> the red and gold took the ball to within striking distance, of the lemon-yellow goal where Dean put over the second touchdown with a line plunge, Cap&a. Swede Evans converting the second ans converting the second goal. Tin: final scoring was done with a piss over the line Leadingham to Smith after the ball had been worked to the lSrhon yellow ten yard line. Final score: U. S. C. 21. Oregon 0.
