All girls interested in entering inter

to take part this year will come to the
hew pool for practice at the hours ar

"With our new pool” said Miss Moore,
‘We should enter into swimming with

had a lot of interest in it last year, and
this year we should have more, heeause
we have such a nice, new place of our

* La si Year's Meet Won.
During the past yearA, the girts have
had to sharp the men’s swimming pool,
and have been handicapped because the
pool was open to them only at stated
times. However, the past record is ex
cellent. Last year the swimming meet
with the girls’ team from Oregon Agri
cultural College ...was won by a large
score. The class contests last year were
strenuously contested. The last year
frosh won the silver cup given to the In
terelass winner; by Miss Mabel L. Cum
mings, head of the department of hy
giene and physical education for women.
Several members of the winning team are
hack at school this year, and, according
to Miss Moore, are going to work hard
to hold tbe*cup another year.

swimming for distance and .speed, in
strokes for form, plunge for distance,
diving and racing, may enter the class if
they wish. Participation ;n some for
mer meet is not a neeessary requirement
for entrance in the class. It is organ
ized primarily fog. those who wi*lMo*«>n

Moore wan^as^inasy *W« as possible

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.

ORCHESTRA FEE ERROR
.Nina Dollar Charge on Schedule is Mis
take; Membership Free.
I -_
f A n*nc dollar fee was placed beside
I orchestra in the term schedule. This is
a typographical error. The fee is charged
| for a course in orchestra organising and
directing taught by Rex Underwood who
i a*so directs the University orchestra.
| Mr. Underwood wishes to make it tinder
| stood that there is no fee connected with
ji membership in the orchestra.
There are a number of vacancies in
l the organization at present and more
members may be added. The policy of the
i orchestra, according to Mr. Underwood,
; is to grow, but to mnke that growth
I slowly enough so that the organization
| will be permanently bettered. Mushroom
growth,is not wanted.
As fast as possible the instrumentation
is being enlarged by the purchase of in
I struments of the sort not usually owned
j by the students. These new instruments
will be given out to students having a lit
tle knowledge either of them or of allied
instruments.

lthe stamp is the inscription, “Pilgrim
[Tercentenary” while at the left and right

[border at the left end of the stamp is
made up of a vertical row of the haw
thorn blossoms (the British mayfiower)

ing arbutus (the American mayfiower.
which tradition says was named by -the
Pilgrims after their ship).

that the girls team to debate with Wash
ington would not be selected at this time.
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.”

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.
