Oregon Daily Emerald VOLUME XXII. UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, EUGENE, OREGON, FRIDAY. APRIL 8. 1921. NO. 106. 80HLER HUS 111 TASK IN DEVELOPING WIIR BALL TEAM Lack of Veteran Basemen Is Felt; Outfield Appears \ Well Balanced CANDIDATES WILLING BUT LACK EXPERIENCE Cemetery Ridge to Be Scene of Initial Contest; Art Berg May Start Game From present indications, Coach George M. Kohler has a real task ahead of him to develop an infield that will compare favorably with the Lemon-Yel low infield of last season. Not that there isn’t a wealth of pretty fast ma terial turning out every night but ex perience is going to make the differ ence, and from the present outlook there will not be an experienced hand in the infield, which means that the entire in field will be selected from last year's frosh squad and the second stringers, from last season, a few of whom are on deck for a berth this year. Bohler Works Squad Hard. Coaoh Bohler is working the squad hard and is giving the infield candidates a stiff training course every afternoon in the practice sessions, hut thus far lias not picked the men for any of these positions. With the first game to he played Saturday against the nine from the North Pacific Dental College of Port land, it is highly probable that Coach Bohler will not announce his starting line-up until about Saturday morning. The loss of ITerm Lind and Jay Pox. the two veterans of'the infield for the past three seasons, means a blow to the Lomon-Yollow nine this soring and so far no suitable material to fiil the two po sitions left vacant by them, is assured. Horm was a sure bet at first and his long reach and ability to handle his length to a good advantage in gathering them in around the initial sack made him unbeatable in the conference last season. With the stick. Horm never failed to connect with a hot one and his homeripns were a feature of the Oregon baseball season last spring. .Tay Fox held down third base to a good advant age and his steady nerve and experience made him a valuable man in the Lemon Yellow infield. .Tav was also an artist with the stick and hit well up among the top notehers last season. “Skeet” Missed at Short. Then “Sweet” Mnnerud handled short stop in a manner that is going to make (Continued on Page 3.) ART EXHIBIT TO OPEN Portland to See Audubon Society Collec tion Next Week. Professor Albert R. Sweetser, head of the the department of botany of the Uni virsity, and his wife will go to Portland tliis morning to make preparations for the third annual art exhibit of the Ore gon Audubon Society which will open Saturday in the Central Library. 230 of Mrs. Sweetser’s painting of birds and flowers will be in the display. The art exhibit will contain oil paint ings, water colors, and photographs of Oregon birds, wild flowers and trees. It is put on in co-operation with the Uni versity. While in Portland Professor Sweetser will give talks to the pupils in the Port land schools. He will return to the cam pus on April IS. I LEMMY LETS STUDES CHRISTEN LAST ISSUE Final Publication to Make Appearance Junior Week-end; Suggestions for Name Due April 15. Lem my, after taxing his powers of .originality through throe successive is sues, is going to take the advice of the hall headed gentlemen, namely that a number of heads are sometimes better than one with the result that the naming of the last issue of the year will be left to the students. The last issue of I>m my. according to the editor, will make its appearance Junior week-end and will contain either 28 or 32 pages. “We want to make the last issue the best, of the year” Fisman said. “In order to do it we must have the interest of all of the students and so we are going to let them name it. All suggestions must be in not later tl#n the fifteenth of this month. The successful one will be an nounced just as soon as decisions have been made.” The April issue of Lemmr, which was to have made its appearance the last of this week’, has been held up for a few days owing to press troubles but first copies will be delivered the early part of next week, according to Doan Ireland, circulation manager. The April issue will contain 28 pages and will include a number of art and cartoon pieces which in the estimation of Frank Short, repre sent the best work thus far submitted. Music Council Brings Star Here For Concert. Madame Margaret Matzenauer, the great Metropolitan mezzo-soprano, will appear in Villard hall on Saturday even ing, April 1C, with Frank La Forge, the great composer, as accompanist. This is the third number of a series of concerts being brought to the campus under the auspices of the Oregon music council. Madame Majtzenauer’s singing has made her well-known all over the world. Her voice is said to almost defy classi fication because of its wonderful adapt ability. She began her operatic career' as a contralto but later took soprano parts with great success. Her experi ence both in Europe and in America is wide and varied. More than ten years of successful as sociation in concert with the greatest art ists have made the name of La Forge, her accompanist, familiar to practically the entire musical world. He was a stu dent of Lesehetizky, the great teacher of piano in Vienna. Madame Matzenauer will also he assisted by Charles Carver, a bass singer. The Matzenauer concert is the most costly attraction that the music council has as yet sponsored, according to Vin cent Engeldinger, chairman of the coun cil committee. It was hoped at the time of the Althouse concert that since it achieved such great success the prices for the next entertainment could be placed a little lower. However, when ar rangements were made for the coming concert it was with difficulty that the Elwyn Concert bureau, under whose di rection the singer comes to the North west, was convinced that the Eugene prices would be as low as those charged for the Althouse concert. This was a disappointment to the council for they had hoped to be able to cut down the admission as had been promised. At the concerts in Portland and Salem an admission of $2.50 or more will be charged, according to the representa tives of the concert bureau. Training for Track and Field By W. L. HAYWARD. NO. 10—THE BISCUS. This event is similar to the hammer throw as far as form is concerned. Some athletes use what is known as the glide or shot putting form. The ones that use it mostly are shot putters who special ize iu the shot alone and enter the discus throw to try to gain points for the team and are satisfied with the form used. I may say that an athlete cannot do both events and do justice to himself for the reason that opposite sets of muscles are used. The form used by the best discus throwers is the turn and a half. The athlete stands at the back of the seven foot circle with his hack facing in the direction that the discus is to be thrown, feet about two feet or less apart, accord iug to the size of the thrower. The dis cus is swung back and forth in an ob lique angle with the body past the knee to gain momentum. The pivot is made on the ball of the left foot; the light, is brought around quickly to the eeuter of the ring. .Tust as soon as the right foot bits the ground the left is placed to the edge or within sis inches of it in a position that will bring the left side facing the direction of the throw. Here the reverse is made as described in the shot; the deliveiies on the order of a left. Care should be taken that equilibrium is not lost during the turn. Elevation is necessary to obtain dis tance and the discus should leave the hand so as to sail through the air. On making the turns the arm should be car ried back or behind the body so as to be able to have a strong pull. The turns should be smooth with increasing speed. After the form is perfected it will not be necessary to throw often. C. B. BROWN SPEIKS OR POSSIBILITIES OF COMMERCIAL CLUBS Production In U. S. Aided By 1160 Chambers of Commerce, Says Speaker AMERICA SHOWN TO BE WORLD’S LEADER Oregon Organization Second of Its Kind In This Country; Chicago First “A man may be a good business man, and good in all ways, but unless he does something for the good of the community, he is not a good citizen,” said Colvin B. Brown, of the orgiSiization department of the United States chamber of com merce, in addressing the students of the University at assembly yesterday morn ing. Mr. Brown is an authority of na tional repute in the matter of business organization in general, and especially in the forming of chambers of commerce, and came to install the University of Oregon chamber of commerce, organized at the close of the winter term. The subject of Mr. Brown's talk was "The Relation Between Business and Chambers of Commerce.” He took up the opportunities of the modern business man from a broad viewpoint, and showed that a well organized chamber of com merce will develop love of town, and a definite object toward which all citizens may work shoulder to shoulder. Mr. Brown gave incidents from his first hand knowledge of the large industries of the United States. Many Problems To Solve. "Today,” said Mr. Brown, "there are a great many important problems con fronting our nation, and the best way to solve them is to divide them into small bits, and let each community do its part. In doing this the chamber of commerce will enter in. A chamber is built on the principle that more can be (Continued on Page 3.) Alumni Will be Asked to Aid In Arrangements. Six tentative plans for the projected campus memorial, to be erected in honor of the Oregon men who lost their lives in the Great War, have been prepared, and will be presented to the alumni through a circular letter. This vvoVk has been done under the di rection of Professor W. F. G. Thacher. who has outlined the most probable forms which the memorial might take. These will be placed before former Ore- j gon student s, and their assistance asked, j both in the selection of some definite ! memorial, and in the raising of the funds necessary for its construction. The proposed plans include a “student union” or building exclusively for the use of the students. It would be pro vided with lounging rooms, rooms for games .and possibly quarters for student officers. Among tho other plans presented is the construction of a memorial field, after the style of Harvard’s famous “Soldier Field.” This could be construct ed upon the thirty-five acre plot on the lower end of which is Hayward field. .The plan would be to lay out the upper tract, in a complete system of grounds, including baseball diamonds, running tracks, tennis courts, etc., with a suit able memorial gateway entrance. An avenue, extending through the main part of the campus, and beautified by the planting of trees and shrubs, is an other plan advanced as a possible me morial. With suitable entablatures and archways, this avenue could be con structed so as to make an impressive spectacle. A memorial library, a statue or gate way are suggested as other possible me morials for the commemoration of the men who gave their lives in one of the greatest struggles of the ages. What ever is adopted, appropriate entablatures on which would appear the names of the men whose great sacrifice is to be honored, will be included. Xo definite plan, however, will be de cided upon, until the committee has had the benefit of the views of the stu dents and alumni upon the best me morial to adopt. Post System Abolished; New Code Now in Force STUDENT BODY DANCE PLANS ARE FINISHED Program to Start at 8; No Feature Planned; Hall To Be Undecorated. All arrangements are complete for the first, student body dance to he held in the new women’s building. An eight piece orchestra has been engaged and a program of snappy dances is planned. The hall will not he decorated, due to the fact that any attempt to decorate on such a large scale as would he re quired would interfere with the classes which are conducted there. In order to give the students lots of time to dance, no feature has been planned. This will prevent any inter ruption after the A. S. U. O. starts to shake a hoof. The festivities start at S o'clock, and according to Johnny Hous ton, chairman of the dance committee, this does not mean 8:15—it means 8 o’clock sharp. Due to the fact that a University hall is to be used, it has been possible to cur tail the expenses. The committee lias set the admission price at 50 cents. Revised Scholarship Regulations Adopted By Faculty; Incompletes To Count As Hours Made; Probation Rules Undergo Change. The post system lias been abolished. A new code, adopted by the faculty at. its meeting yesterday afternoon, now governs student scholarship. Several radical changes in the old code have been made, ns well as an entire change in the make-up of the probation committee. Under the new system, a student nink ing less than three hours is dropped from school, whereas lie was formerly placed on probation. Less than nine hours places a student upon probation, but in the cose of dismissal, the student is al lowed to petition for re-instatement in the University after nine calendar months. The old code made no provision for re-instatement. The new code provides that iucom pletes will be counted in figuring the number of hours made. Under the sys tem existing heretofore, incomplet.es were not counted. The probation committee, which con sisted of all the deans, is responsible for ; Batty Attics Attract Women; i fStiL. ! Pot and Quill Gets Cellar Pott and Quill, women’s organization interested in writing as distinguished from journalism, is now' as definitely placed on the campus as the library or the 'Pioneer. A room for n meeting place and general headquarters has been as signed to the society in the art building, (the former women’s gym) and the mem bers are now in the process of moving in. The granting of the use of this room is the result of considerable search for an appropriate place on the part of the' organization, and a petition to W. K. Newell, University superintendent of properties. Pot and Quill has for a long time felt the need of a permanent meeting place and headquarters, becnuse of the nature of its club w'ork, which calls for a reading and writing room and something in the way of filing and li brary facilities. The place which Mr. Newell has assigned to the organization is the basement room which was used as examining room when the building was used as women’s gymnasium. The mem MISSOURI SYSTEM OF GRADES METED Colloquium Committee Makes Report to Faculty The 'Missouri system of grading has been re-worded so as to be interpreted for use in the University. This was done by a committee appointed by the faculty colloquium for the purpose, and their re port, interpreting the grading system was adopted at the faculty meeting yes terday afternoon. It follows: “Students are graded as to scholar ship by being placed in classes-1, II, III, IV, V, Failed, Incomplete, Conditioned, or Withdrawn. “An instructor may at his discretion giv
