Total Number of Students Reaches High Point. Oregon Agricultural College, Corvallis, Jan. 11. — The total number of students now registered is 3467, as compared with »350 at the end of the second term last year. The showing is gratifying to the addiinistration in view of the depressed conditions in rural districts, particularly in eastern Oregon. Many students indi cated nt the close of the first term in De cember that they might not be back in college for the second term because of the fact that the wheat was still in the bins. . Engineering, in all its branches, leads ^stratum with 977. The’school of agriculture has 831, commerce 794, home economics 563, and pharmacy 177. The school of music has 66 regular students find many others who take the work as elective. NEWS TO BE WIRELESSED.

The first specimens of the new series of potsage stamps, authorized by con gress in commemoration of the 300th an niversary of the landing of the Pilgrims, have been received at the Eugene post office. These are both beautiful and in teresting. The one-cent stamp is green in color, and has as its pictorial subject the aJiip “Mayflower.” The two-cent staanp is done in red and pictures the landing of the Pilgrims at Plymouth Rock; while the five-cent stamp is blue, picturing the “Signing of the Compact.” At the top of lthe stamp is the inscription, “Pilgrim [Tercentenary” while at the left and right are the numerals “1620” and “1920.” The [border at the left end of the stamp is made up of a vertical row of the haw thorn blossoms (the British mayfiower) while at the right is a row of the trail ing arbutus (the American mayfiower. which tradition says was named by -the Pilgrims after their ship). DEW PICKED TO r Tryouts Held Last Night In Villard HaU. At the debate trj'outs held at Villard hall last night Rcmey Cox, John J, Ca noles, F. L.

The question for debate was: “Re solved: That congress should pass laws (prohibiting strikes in essential indus tries.” Each speaker was allowed four minutes and could argue either the af firmative or the negative side*of the question. The other men who tried qut in the debate were Don Dans. R. Kuhn, (Gibson Bowles and C. Carl Myers. Four other girls also tried out for debating. They were Marjorie Stout.

READ’S GAS ATTACK EMPTIES STUDY HALL Flashlight Picture of Library Disturbs Knowledge-seekers; Fumes Soon Cause Vacant Room. At least for one time this year the library was not congested at eight p. m., so successful was A. C. Read’s gas at tack when he attempted to get a flash light picture of the library reading room in action. Embryo cases of shell shock were manifest when suddenly, without warn ing, the flash powder caught fire with a bang, quite disturbing the normal course of' events in the University social hall, But those present had no more than sat isfied their curiosity and regained their composure when tell-tale sniffs told that all was not well, and in another minute all except the most leathery-lunged were seen hurrying away from the smoke at tack .much thicker than the densest chap ter room-atmosphere. - It was rumored that the picture was taken to show the crowded condition of the reading room, but if a “before and after” scheme had been used, Read’s picture might easily be styled propagan da. And A. C. Read departed, camera under arm, with one of his amiable, ever-present smiles, saying, “I’m tho campus photographer; watch my smoke.” WRIGLEYS AMs to seed looks, sound MO. appetite and healthy an eoly 5c a pa chase. Seated Mayer and McCroskey’s Exclusive College Dance "V ; -• •&* •’ 4 *• TV "r ' ' Old Armory Friday 14th HILARITY MARK OP PLAY ‘NIGHTIE NIGHT’ Clever Lines, Action Speedy and Inter esting in Entertaining Comedy. * By Norma E. Abrams. Harking back to the not so very long ago days of Philip Batliolomae and his smartly amusing dramas of domestic misunderstandings and confusing cir- j cumstance, “Nightie Night” which comes j to the Eugene Theatre Tuesday, January 18th for one night of three acts and a i prologue of rollicking hilarity. It is not a bedroom farce. There is lots of lingerie of languishing design and a completely mislaid outer costume, but not a bed from start to finish, despite the damning title chosen for the comedy by its playwrights, Martha M. Stanley and Adelaide Matthews. The plot isn’t a specially new one, but the lines are clever, while the action moves along without a hitch from the moment that the innocent husband be comes embroiled in a maze of circum stances that threaten to fatally enmesh him in an involuntary affair with an old sweetheart, until the jealous husband and the jealous wife have both been ap peased, the charming actress-sweetheart wife rescued from the stationary tubs, with her clothing and her bridegroom both restored. Perhaps the very famil iarity of its theme and the novelty with which it has been handled \vere factors in the reception which was accorded it last night. Harry Stubbs, east iu the role of Billie Moffatt as the fat. good-natured hut vastly misunderstood husband of Thelma IVhite as Mollio on one of the most cling ing vines that has clung about in many a day, is the bright particular star of “Nightie Night.” Popularity was also due Kirnnn King as Trixie Loraine. the Broadway favor ite, and she won it for keeps within the first five minutes of the prologue. If it hadn’t been hers before, she would hnve cinched it by the fashion in which shy wore pajamas throughout the second and the third acts. Seen as Jimmy Blythe, Truro's hus band of a day. Max Waizmnj was more than well received. Frederick lleone was seen as Dr. Bentley Allie, Lowe as Ern estine Dare, a meddlesome sister; Harold Hutchinson as Philip Burton, an equally meddlesome brother, while Helen Na mur’s interpretation of Norah, the movie mad maid, was more than ordinarily clever.
