    Expense Guarantee Raised By
Islanders From $4500
to $5000.
CONTRACT EXPECTED
TO FOLLOW BY MAIL
Oregon Team Picked from
Many Applicants; 18 to 20
Men Will Be Taken.
With a final invitation from the Uni
versity of Hawaii which arrived in the
form of a cablegram yesterday and which
announced that the university would pay
a $5000 expense guarantee to the Uni
versity of Oregon football team for trav
eling expenses, it now appears certain
that Oregon will meet the Islanders at
Honolulu on next Christmas day. Grad
uate Manager McClain answered the
cablegram to that effect yesterday and
no wall that remains is the drawing up
of the contract which will probably fol
low by mail.
The additional expense guarantee was
made by the Hawaiian athletic author
ities after a careful estimate of the
traveling expenses had been made and
graduate manager Marion McClain had
discovered that the trip would incur ex
penses amounting to $5,000, he wired
the Hawaiian representatives that that
effect with the result that they raised
the offer from $4,500 to the required
$5,000. This item does not include the
hotel fare and accommodations while
the team is in the Islands, which will be
quite an expense in itself when it is
considered that the team will have to
spend at least a week before the games
and the intervening time between the
Christmas day contest with the univer
sity eleven and the New Year’s day game
with the athletic club in Honolulu.
Others Not Invited.
Numerous rumors to the effect that
the Utah Aggies and the California
freshman eleven had been invited to
play in the Islands next season are dis
credited by this latest invitation from
the Hawaiian institution. It is consid
ered significant that out of the long
list of applicants, which included the
Oregon Aggies, the University of Ore
gon squad was. tendered the invitation
for the games, and one member of the
hoard of regents even went so far as to
suggest that the regents pay a part of
the expenses of the team provided the
Hawaiian offer did not suffice to meet
expenses.
Coach Huntington stated last night
that lie was thoroughly in favor of play
ing the game and believed that the trip
would be well worth a year’s education
to the members of the squad who were
fortunate enough to make the team. Be
tween 18 and 20 players will probably
be taken along.
Faculty Approves Trip.
Faculty sanction was given last Thurs
day at the faculty meeting, it being found
that the team would be absent. only
about two weeks from school, the re
maining two weeks required for the trip
being taken up in the Christmas vaca
tion period.
faculty meets today.
Medical School in Portland Demands

The matter of entrance requirements.

work in the Medical School in Portland

Bede Gets Up Before Daylight
To Talk Before Journalists, and
City Fines Him $1.50 Besides
I hose who saw a sandy eomplexioned
man drive up in a Buick aiuf stop in
front of McClure hall, Wednesday morn
ing at exactly nine o’clock may not
have noticed E. .T. B. on the side of the
car; but Robert Hall's class in publish
ing, crowded into a little room on the
basement floor, knew that the E. ,T. B.
Buick‘brought Elbert Bede, editor of
the Cottage Grove Sentinel, to the cam
pus. The class began to wet its col
lective lips and clear its collective throat
preparatory to firing a volley of ques
tions at the genial editor, because ho
had come in answer to an S. O. S. from
a class determined to do its utmost with
an assimngent left as"a final exam, by
Dean Eric W. Allen, to be watched over
by Robert Hall.
“Shoot,’ ’said the broadbrowed cdi
tor. when he was ushered into the room
--and from then on till the ten o’clock
bell sounded, the class “shot.”
Atr. Bede answered questions about
everything in a print shop from the big
Press that makes all the noise and prints
the paper to the tiniest period in the
type fonts. He knows where to get
everything, what it costs, what it’s used
for, n’everything—and he knows how to
smile, too.
As near as anybody can find out, Mr.
Bede likes Cottage Grove because it’s j
Cottage Grove; he likes Eugene because
it’s Eugene; and he likes people because
they’re people. He is said to be qne of
the most interesting journalists in Ore
gon, and is known in a favorable way
outside the state as well.
1 he newspaper is the most power
ful factor in a community,” said Mr.
ltede, “especially in the small commu
nity. Nobody thinks of starting any
thing without first coming to the pa
per.” The editor of the Sentinel thinks
there is a promising future for the
trained journalist who conducts his busi
ness on a strictly businesslike basis.
Mr. Bede laughed himself into the day
of the embryonic jouurnalists, and
laughed himself out again, his hughest
joke being one on himself. “As a rule,”
he joked, “editors don’t get up very early.
But this morning, as I had promised to
come up here, 1 got up very early,”
(In the wee small hours, it was), “and
went down to the office, leaving my
car in front. When I came out after
working several hours,” he went on, “I
found a tag on my car inviting me to cal]
around and pay $1.50 to the city be
cause my car was not properly lighted.’’
“You see, the Sentinel has been hav
ing a lot to say about the enforcement
of the ordinance in Cottage Grove,” the
editor finished with his characteristic
laugh. “I haven’t decided whether of
not to add that $1.50 t<^ my expense ac
c(Aint for coming up here,” he added.
Fifteen Men at First Meeting
Vote to Organize.
Plans for the formation of an advert
tisinp: club by students on the campus in -
terested in the profession were discussed
at a meeting yesterday afternoon in
the journalism annex. About 15 men
were present nt the first meeting and
they expressed themselves ns heartily
in favor of forming such an organization
for constructive work in the advertis
ing field. Committees will be appointed
within a few' days to draw up a tentative
constitution and to determine on a name
and elibigility.
The essential purpose of the club will
be to meet the growing need of men
qualified to enter the advertising profes
sion. A number of eastern colleger have
already established departments where
this work is taken up more in detail than
here. The ' local organization will look
forward to more advanced work being
given here, and to this end will begin a
serious study of the work which cannot
be taken up, in the limited time for class
work. Dean K. W. Allen, of the school
of journalism, is making a survey of
the work being given in the eastern uni
versities and it is possible that more ad
vertising may be given here.
Some plan whereby the club will be
of assistance to the University in the
matter of more effective publicity and
advertising is to be worked out.
The next meeting for the organization
of the club will be called within a short1
time.

TRADE UNIONS SUBJECT
Girls’ Forum to Hear Paper on Causes
of Workers' Organizing.
—
“.Causes which lead to the organiza
tion of workers” will be the subject of
a paper to be given by Bertha Hayes
at the regular meeting of the Imlustria'
Forum this evening at 7:00 in the Y. W.
C. A. bungalow. This paper Will include
a report concerning garment workers,
boot and shoe workers.
Other questions that will be discussed
are strikes, including causes, conduct,
boycott, picketing, and closed shop and
the right of collective bargaining. It is
said that college girls are the con
sumers of the products of the industrial
girl. Then the question arises, what
obligation has the college girl to see
that the industrial girls are assured not
only of a square deal but opportunity for
further development?
Is it ethical to live without productive
labor? Which has the better induce
ment to loyalty, the college or the trade
union?
Phantom Gives Mr. Reddie
First Case of Stage Fright
■ —« i ‘
According to liis own testimony, Per-1
gus Reddie, who plays as Ivo-Ko in the!
“Mikado,” had the first case of stage
fright Tuesday evening that he has ev°r
had in his life. It was something ou
of the line of regular drama to approach
the footlights and take the audience in
to confidence with a little song about
people “that never would be missed.”
The first verses went all right, but
when he got down to a verse with local
stuff in it a sort of premonition, a feel
ing of anticipation, swept over him. The
verse lie was supposed to say ran:
“As some day it may happen you will
have a house to paint
I’ve got p little list—of colors to be
missed.
Just walk across the campus to where
a building old and quaint
(That never would be be missed—were’t
not for this same list)
Has been colored like the rainbow by
some ardent, unknown hand
Who’s apparently determined \M11 be
heard throughout the land.
There you’ll note the sky-blue pink and
other colors loud and rare,
Which, when you come to paint your
house you surely must beware,
Or else the public dear will call you
Swede or futurist,
And ask you to desist—hnd put you on
my list.”
But down on the front row was Avard
Fanrbanks, he maintained, watching him
open-mouthed. He reached the “colored
like the rainbow” and then the fun of the
situation struck him. “I couldn’t keep
from laughing,” he said, “and the whole
thing exploded.” He coughed and nod
ded and had to let it go, but he promises
to give it from now on, every word, no
matter who is there.
But the funny part of it all is that
Mr. Fairbanks stoutly maintained, when
his opinion of .the ditty Vas sought, that
he was not there at all. The logical
supposition is that Mr. Reddie’s con
science was so guilty that in the hazy
mass of faces over the footlights some
vision, or optical illusion, loomed threat
ening and menacing, as the real Avard
Fairbanks, and Mr. Reddie’s mirtT was
all for nothing.
W STUFF WILL
Talks To Be Given On Next
Issue o.f Magazine.
In order that Oregon students may
know just what the Lemon Punch stands
for as well as the nature of the next is
sue and prizes offered, members of the
Punch staff will conduct a house-to
house campaign today for the purpose of
stimulating the interest of the entire
University in the humorous publication.
Previous to this time, according to the
editor, the magazine has been the pro
duct of a few students wi o have mani
fested interest in the publication. The
staff at the present time is bending
every effort to make the next issue a
real success, he says, by enlisting the
interest of the entire University. “We
are putting out a 28 page paper next
month and there will be 2000 copies re
leased so it is to the interest of the en
tire University that it be a big success,”
Eisman said. “Upon this issue rests the
future success of the magazine. The
University at large has little interest in
the magazine except as it comes out
from time to time. It is for the purpose
of bringing the importance of all-Uni
versity interest home to the students
that the house-to-house campaign for
interest is being conducted.”

SIX AMENDMENTS TO
BHAWS PROPOSED:
IRE OFFERED TODAY
Soccer Men Are Out for Pour
Inch Letter Award
for Sport.
WOMEN’S BASEBALL
ASK FOR SWEATERS
New Constitution Will Be Pre
[ sented to A. S. U. 0.
for Discussion.
Six amendments to the by-lav/s of
the associated students will be presAt
ed at the meeting of the A. S. U. O. to
he held in Villard hall at 11 o’clock this
morning These amendments provide for
changes in the requirements for student
activity awards, and provide awards for
two new activities.
The most, important of these amend
ments is the one providing for the
awarding of a letter for soccer. This
virtually places this sport, hitherto not
’officially recognized, in the minor sport
(class. The amendment provides for a
four inch old English “O” as the award
for any man playing an entire inter
collegiate game in the first line, or the
hqnivalent in time in intercollegiate
games.
New Basketball Letter Proposed.
A larger letter for basketball is the
text of an amendment to be acted upon
today, which will increase the size of the
letter awarded for this sport. With the
belief that basketball, which is a major
sport, was entitled to more recognition
than it is receiving, an amendment was
prepared to increase the size of the let
ter award. As in the case of all major
sports, the basketball award also car
ries a sweater.
To change the provisions for the ten
nis award to meet the change in the
manner of staging matches is the pur
pose of an amendment to be presented
today. It. provides an old English let
ter four inches high as an award to n
varsity player who, in either singles or
doubles, wins his match in either the
Pacific coast or Northwest conference
meets. This is made applicable to
either conference or dual meets.
Change in Requirements Suggested.
The old provision provided that a man
must win the Northwest conference
meet, and was passed at a time when
no other meets were held and Washing
ton and O. A. C. were the only other
teams competing. The new amend
ment includes Pacific coast conference
games in couuting credit toward varsity
performance. '
A sweater award for women’s base
ball is the purpose of an amendment
which will be introduced. The award at
present is a letter.
Orchestra Wants Pins.
The University orchestra will present
an amendment which will authorize the
|?ranting of a pin to the members of that
6sganization. A triangular pin, with the
words “Orchestra, U. of 0.” will be
granted, under the new provision, to all
students who are members of the or
chestra for a period of one year. No
award has been provided for the orches
tra for the reason that it was not made
h student body activity until last term.
A change in the size of the “O”
awarded for debate is the purpose of
an amendment to be introduced for the
debaters. The award at present is much
larger than the pin given for other simi- ,
lar student activities, and the new reg
ulation would reduce its size to approxi
mately that of the glee club and Emer
ald awards.
Constitution Will Be Presented.
The new constitution will also be pre
sented to the students for consideration
although no action will be taken until
the subject is voted upon by ballot next
week. The new code, which essentially
provides the amalgamation of the foren
sic council, advisory committee and ath
letic council under the head of the exe
cutive council, and the provision of a
budget system, appears in detail else
where in this issue.
The constitution, due to the shortness
of the hour, will not be read in detail,
but its main points will be presented by
the committee which formulated it. Dis-'
cussion will take place, and the commit
tee urges all students to bring their
Emeralds, containing the constitution, to
the meeting in order to save the time
which would be necessary if the various
clauses would have to be read and re
read.
