NO. 124. Will Oppose Elston Ireland For Presidency; Race Ex pected Between Two. HELEN CARSON NOW OUT FOR SECRETARY Ruth Griffin, Guy Keopp, and James Say Enter Lists For Offices. With nominations scheduled for tomor row morning at 11, most candidates have now decided upon what position they will concentrate, and as a result yesterday saw' several new announcements of candi dacy. Several political aspirants have deckled to take what advantage there is in being a “darkhorse,” and probably will not announce themselves until Thursday morning, when formal nominations will be made. Of chief interest among yesterday’s developments is the announcement that Lyle Bortholemew will be a candidate for A. S. U. O. president. He will oppose Elston Ireland, who has previously an nounced his candidacy. Present indica tions point to a race between these two men. it being doubtful if another candi date will enter the race.

WOMEN WILL HAVE NEW ATHLETIC FIELD Grading Started on Diamond Back of New Building; Exclusive For Girls’ Use. Grading is being done on the girls’ athletic field this week, and the field will soon be in shape for use, as 11 and 12 teams are being employed daily to complete the work just as quickly as possible. It was necessary to make a seven-foot cut along the upper bank by the cemetery in order to make the field a level stretch. Just back of the women’s building will be a hockey and baseball field, which is to be l."0y3?0 feet in size. It has not been decided whether this field will be of turf or fine gravel. East of this, on 1 niversity street, provision is being made for a tennis court, which is to be of clay at presentment later is to be of asphalt. The archery field is to be west of the open air gymnasium, and there are to be two more* baseball diamonds along the edge of the cemetery which will be used until the new auditorium is built. During the fall and spring terms, this field will be used extensively by the phy sical education department for the out door sports, and also during the winter when the weather permits. TRI DELIS WIN BOTH THEIR BILL DIMES First Victory of Chi Omegas Won From Delta Zetas. Pelf a Delta Delta Won her second game in the League I baseball series, by a score of 27 to 24 against Sigma Delta Phi Monday afternoon-in the indoor gym nasium. Delta Zeta was no match for the Chi Omega team in the League IT game, and the full number of innings was not played. The score stood 31 to 10, in Chi Omega’s favor, which was her first victory. Delta Zeta won a previous game against Alpha Phi. Sigma Delta Phi was in the lead throughout the first innings, but the Tri Delts succeeded in making several runs at the last, and won by three points. The doughnut series is almost entirely in charge of students this year. Miss Emma Waterman, instructor in baseball, occasionally umpires a few innings, but is unable to do so steadily on account of other classes. She is very well pleased with the work done by student umpires and said that no real complaints had been made thus far. Emily Perry, Alice Evans, Ruth Wolff and Margaret Russell have been umpiring the games played thus far. The teams playing Chi Omega: M. Byrom M. Lauderdale M. Schwartz M. Mathisen L. Manerud B.

The work of advertising Junior Week End is well under way. Over 475 invi tations.have been sent to the high schools of Oregon and Southern Washington. Junior Week-End posters have already begun to make their appearance on and about the campus and articles have been sent to the newspapers. Art Kuenhausen. chairman of the pub licity committee, reports that number of inquiries concerning Junior Week-End have already beeu received and that great enthusiasm has been shown in them. He says: “With a promising outside interest, the co-operation of the students in sending out invitations and a few days of sunshine we will have a bigger crowd than was ever seen on Broadway on Sat urday night during booze-time.” Object Is to Give Students Broader Understanding of Subject. DEMAND AT PRESENT IN EXCESS OF SUPPLY More Professional Men Are Now Needed Than Ever Used Before. A now course of study in geology, which has been designed especially for those students who intend to enter the professional field of geology, has just been approved by the state, board of high er curricula. This curriculum will meet also the needs of pre-engiueering stu dents who elect to satisfy the require ments of certain professional lines, as well as those, students who desire a general knowledge of geology as a key to greater appreciation of the out-of doors. The prescribed course includes, besides the strictly geological subjects, a mod ern language (if the B. A. is sought), a social science, mathematics, English, some work in the pure sciences, physical education and military drill. A substan tial foundation in these subjects not only contributes directly to the subject of geology itself, but to the broader devel opment of the student as well. Geologists In Demand. The present demand for professional geologists is said to surpass the supply, partly because the training for this pro fession is long and partly because the demand has grown rather fast, of late years. Geology, in fact, requires as much or possibly more time in specialization than do even the traditional professions. This University's new course of study has been so planned as to give the stu dent a wealth of geologic information and to train him to use it in the actual solution of field problems. The work covers a four-year period, with the ad dition of about one year of graduate work for those who care to continue. Dr. Warren D. Smith, head of the de partment of geology, who for the past (Continued on Page 4.) m WILL HELP - ■ to coimon ml i Hayward Field Being Rapidly Put In Shape. Work on the new oval on Hayward field is progressing rapidly towards the getting of the track into the best of con dition for the Pacific Coast Conference Track and Field meet, but, according to Acting Graduate Manager Jack Bene fit, there is yet a lot of labor to be ac^ complished if the plans are to be carried out. A great deal of this'work will have to be accomplished by the freshmen, ac cording to the present plans. The Order of the “O” and the freshman vigilance committee are busy this week working out a plan whereby the slackers who fail to show up when their names are print ed in the Emerald may be punished ac cordingly. A meeting of the Order of the “O” will be held today at which a definite plan for taking care of the slackers will be discussed and an agreement reached. The Fro-Tra-Co is working out a plan to co-operate to the extent of furnishing the names and the whereabouts of the frosh who do not appear when their names arc published. A list of 25 freshmen names will be published from day to day and these men will be required to report on Hayward field at 4 o’clock in the afternoon of the day the names appear. Following is the list/>f those who are to appear for work at 4 o’clock this af ternoon: Kenneth R. Wadleigh, George Walker, Claire I). Wallace. Merle Walteis, Edwin D. Warren, Kenneth H. Waters, Lee W. Weber, Meyer L. Weinstock. Lynn C. Whipple. Walter W. Whitcomb, Chaun cev B. Wightman, George J. Willett. Earl Williams, George W. Williams. Laurance L. Williams, Stephen It. Williams, Ken neth .T. Williamson, Myron C. Wilsev, Forrest B. Wilson, Harry W. Wilson. Howard E. Winnard. Tennington Witmer, Floyd D. Wright, Takeo Yamane, Reuben C. Young, Marcus L. Youngs. Portland Management Aids In Financing Trip of Orchestra. FORMER OREGON MAN TO STAR AS SOLOIST Famous Concertos Form Large Part of Well Arranged Program. The crowning event in the program arranged for the dedication of the new’ Women’s building next Saturday, May 7, will be the concert in the evening by the Portland Symphony Orchestra. This or ganization of 56 musicians, of which Carl Denton is conductor, is Oregon’s bwn orchestra and the only symphony orchcs ! tra in the Pacific Northwest. The orchestra is supported by the con tributions of a number of public-spirited citizens of Portland who guarantee funds to keep the organization up to standard. The bringing of this symphony orchestra to Eugene proved too great an undertak ing for the local management to finance alone and. therefore, in order that the University and the community might have this musical organization for the closing event on the program for the dedication exercises, the Portland management is not only reducing the rates but is co operating in paying expenses to the ex tent of .$1000. The entire cost will be approximately ^$2600, the remainder of which will have to come from the re ceipts of the ticket sale for the concert. Tschaikowsky Number Listed. David Campbell, a former Oregon stu dent. is the soloist with the orchestra. Dr. John Landsbury, dean of the school of music, speaks of him as “one of the greatest of the younger generation of pianists.” One of the big numbers on the program will be a Tschaikowsky con certo for the piano, by Mr. Campbell, accompanied by the orchestra. Other, numbers on the program include compo sitions by Dvorak, Sibelius, .Tarnfeldt, and Liszt. The first number of the program will be Symphony No. 5, E minor, “From the New World,” Opus 95, by Anton Dvorak. This most beautiful of all the symphon (Continued on Page 4.) TO HUITE ELEVEN Every Member of First Class to Enter College. l lift eipvftn students who will recpivfi diplomas in the first graduating class of the University high school, on June 3, expect to enter the University next fall, says R. S. Dickerson, principal of the campus high. Six of theA students know already in what school or department they will ma jor. Three intend to majo^ in science, one in household arts, and one in Eng lish. These students are somewhat, younger than the average in a high school gradu ating class, Mr. Dickerson says. One is 15, three are 1<>, and all but one of the ! others are under 18. Nine of the 11 [ members are girls. | There would have been no graduating class this year, Mr. Dickerson says, if it had not been for the fact that these students have gained time during their course, and will have completed the re quirements for graduation from high school in three years. One of the ideals of the campus high school is to eneour ! age the students to work to capacity, and when the students are anxious and able to carry extra work, it means grad uation in three years. The 11 members of the graduating class, all of whom will enter the class of 1925 at the University next fall, are: Phyllis Davis. Floyd Ruch. Oleta Sulli van, Estelle Vadnais, Lucille Meserve, Henry Sheldon, who is the son of Dean II. I). Sheldon of the school of education, Dorothy Lare, Lena Eastwood, Wanda Eastwood, Marion Hays, and Hazel Hay den. According to Mr. Dickerson, out. of tlif 47 students in the senior high school, the tenth, eleventh and twelfth grades, 38, which is 81 per cent, are planning to go to college. OREGON IS WINNER IN 6 OUT OF 12 CONTESTS Charles Fish to Represent U. of 0. in Oratory With Washington On May 27. Orators from the University of Oregon have won sis out of twelve of the Inter state Northwest Oratorical contests held since 1909. This year’s contest is to be held in Seattle on May 27, with Diaries Kish representing Ortjgou. Fish was chosen at the tryouts held Thursday evening. The only other con testant was Abe Rosenberg, who won the contest for Oregon in 1018. Fish is a sophomore in the University from Sprague, Washington. The Interstate Northwest Oratorical contest was started about 1009, and was at that time called the Interstate Ora torical contest, the colleges then enter ing being the Universities of Washing ton, Oregon and Montana. in 1018 the name was changed to the Oregon-Washington Oratorical contest. At that time Montana no longer com peted. By 1018 the name again changed to the Interstate Northwest. Oratorical contest, by which title it is still known. At the present time Washington, Oregon and Idaho compete, the contest being held alternately at the different schools. During the years that this oratorical contest has been held Oregon has won half the contests. Former Oregon win ners for (iregon are: Charles Robison in 1011. Carlton Spencer in 1012, Pro fessor Croekntt in 1015, Earl Fleisch man in 1017, Abe Rosenberg in 1018, Fred Coley in 1020. MOTHERS' LUnCHEON ON CMS PUNNED Students Urged to Report Parents’ Acceptances. As a third occasion when campus lunch eons will be served on the Orfegon campus according to tradition, the Saturday pre ceding Mothers’ Day, when the mothers are being entertained, has been officially recognized by the student body. The other two times when the traditional campus luncheon is served are homecom ing and Junior Week-end. The campus luncheon will probably be served on the campus this year instead of in the gym, as on former occasions. According to Floyd Maxwell, chairman of the invitation committee, the response to invitations are coming in slowly, and it is urged upon the students to make a note of the acceptances they liuve re ceived and drop them in the box in the library so that proper arrangements can be made for entertaining the approxi mate number of guests. White ribbons with appropriate inscriptions \$11 b'4 given to each of the guests ns they arrive Saturday morning and a committee will be at the railway station to take cure of this. Lyle Bartholomew, general chairman of the Mothers’ Day committee, lays empha sis on the fact that mothers who buy their tickets to Erigene for the week-end should ask for receipts at the ticket offices in order that these may be signed by the alumni secretary at Eugene and a reduced fare rate received for the re turn trip. Notices to this effect have nlso been sent out by Dean Elizabeth Fox. Final arrangements for the proper en tertainment of the guests is being made, and those who have not yet sent out the invitations to their mothers are urged to attend to this at once. Additional invitations may be obtained at the Alum ni secretary’s office in the administra tion building. Ella Rawlings, chairman of (he lunch eon committee, reports that the campus luncheon for Saturday will be the only one served on or near the campus. All organizations will send their members to the campus to eat on Saturday noon. ♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦ ♦ ♦ 4 WILL THERE BE ICE CREAM? ♦ ♦ -- ♦ ♦ Will there he any ice cream for ♦ ♦ the Mothers’ Day luncheon?

RIGHT MAN STILL HAS CHANCE TO MAKE TEAM Coach May Use But 2 Pitchers; Strong Bid to Be Made For Series. “No man on the team has earned his place yet,” is the way Coach Bohler, of the baseball squad, explains his action in posting a notice in the gym last night to the effect that all members of the squad who were not letter men of last, year must turn in their uniforms at once. Bohler says that the action was not be cause he was dissatisfied with the work of the nine on the northern trip, but because there had not been sufficient tryouts among the various aspirants, due to the short practice period before the conference season opened, and the con tinued bad weather. There is yet plenty of time for the r.ght man to make the team, according to Bohler, and because a man was taken on the trip north and played in the games is no indication that his place is secure as a varsity regular. In the opir ion of the coach, there were many aspirants left at home when the squad went north who were of as good baseball calibre as those taken on the trip, and there are some ten or more infielders trying out for the varsity between whom there is little difference in playing ability. Varsity Infield Slow. Not only is the batting average, giving the coach a great deal of concern, hut the infield is slow and flat-footed, ac cording to his characterization, and from now on every man who makes a berth on the team and wears the uniform of a regular, has got to show the proper amount of fight first. The mentor is out to develop fight and is already look ing ahead to the annual four-game series with the Aggies, and is anxiously await ing the chance to mix with Jimmy Rich ardson’s Corvallis aggregation. With good warm baseball weather the latter part of the week it is possible that Bohler may use but two pitchers in the games this week end; with the cold wea ther continuing, however, he will prob ably use his entire staff in the two games. From ull indications, the varsity should take at. least one of the contests from the Sundodgcrs and a strong bid will be made for both of them. U. of W. Batting Average High. Washington is bringing a strong aggre gation down and their butting average is I retty high this season. In fielding, the Sundodgers do not exceed the varsity in handling tin* bull, but their batting eye is pretty keen, and errors must be few if the varsity takes the contests. Snap, fight and lots of pep are the es sentials which Coach Bohler wants to drive into the squad in the remaining few days before the series with the northerners on the Cemetery Ridge dia mond. SILK TILES ALMOST J EXTINCT ON CAMPUS Sorority Has Distinction of Ownership; Girls Will Not Admit Where They Got It. ' Is the traditional silk hat, that old and venerated trade-mark of the hark driver and the male wedding guest, becoming an extinct species? A recent hunt on the campus for one of these two-gallon containers revealed the astonishing fact that although the well known dress suit occurred quite frequently in the student wardrobe, the appropriate glossy silk tile that is presumed to be an integral part of the formal male make-up rarely occurred. Those who were willing to admit that they had one of these lids of dignity seemed ashamed to confess ownership, others gave various reasons for their absence. Financial reverses caused one student to place his on the market and another discharged his from the dress service owing to lack of opportunity for use. One prominent sorority house is the proud possessor of one of these relics of the past, but where and under what cir cumstances the members assumed owner ship was not revealed.
