PRACTICAL FUNSTERS
AROUSE POLITICIANS
Voting to be From 10 Until 2
In Villard; Elmer Pendell
Is in Charge.
Five candidates not nominated at the
regular nominating assembly will have
their names on the ballot at the polls
Thursday, nominating petitions for this
number having been accepted Saturday.
The total number of candidates is now
thirty-six.
Elaine Cooper, candidate for ' senior
woman on the student council, and Mau
rice Eben, candidate for senior man on
the student council, are the latest to
have petitions accepted. Others an
nounced Saturday morning are Alice Ev
ans and Ila Nichols, candidates for senior
woman on the council, and Neil Morfitt
candidate for senior man.
Elections will be held Thursday from
1(1 a. m. until 2 p. in., and polls will be
located in Villard lial, according to the
announcement of Elmer Pendell, in charge
of the election. Ballots are now being
prepared, and candidates are to be given
until noon today to withdraw their names
if they wish to do so. The statement in
Saturday’s Emerald that elections would j
bo held on Wednesday was incorrect. Al
though the constitution states that elec-!
tions shall be held on Wednesday, it also
says that nominations shall be a week
previous to election. It has, therefore,
been decided to hold elections on Thurs
day, one week from nominations.
Pranks Create Excitement.
Practical jokesteps had their innings
Saturday, and created considerable excite
ment among campus politicians and can
didates when the news spread around the
campus that a now candidate for A. S
U. O. president had been nominated by
petition. All sorts of twists were given
to the rumor, and some even went to fai
as to concede his election.
The popular candidate was James
Sears, who all unknowingly leapt into
fame overnight. Fifteen campus humor
ists conceived the idea of stirring things
up and prepared « bona fide petition
nominating the uninformed Sears as pres
ident. Ernest Evans was also placed in
nomination by the humorists as varsity
yell leader.
lymphatic denials by the two candidates
that they would, could, or even thought
of running for office were received by
Carlton Savage, student president, yes
terday. The two candidates had not
known that their names were to bo
placed on the ballot until some jokesters
weakened and informed them of the sit
uation. They immediately requested that
their candidacy be withdrawn.
Including all petitions accepted up to
(> o’clock Saturday evening, only one of
fice will go uncontested. Inez King
candidate for editor of the Oregnnn. has.
no opposition, and will accordingly fill
that office next year.
The petition nominating Maurice Ebon
was the last to be received, and it was
thought that there "would be no contest
over the position of senior man on the
student council. There arc now four in
the race, however, with three to be
elected.

x A1THFUL FEW WORK
ON HAYWARD FIELE
Order of “0” Executed; Grandstand |<
Repaired, Track Rolled, and
Fences Erected.
In conformity with the decree of tlu
Order of the “O.” all able-bodied men o:
the University—except those who chose
to do otherwise—reported for work or
Hayward field Saturday morning.
About 250 reported, but for some mys
terious reason only about 100 were stir
on duty at noon. However, when “cliow
time” came around, there seemed to be
even more than the original 250 on deck
And the labors of the faithful were not
in vain, for the whole track was rolled
the grandstand was repaired, fences were
erected around part of the field, and
paths to the high jump were laid out.
On the whole, the prospects for the
spring track meet look much brighter
now than they did a few weeks ago.
Washington Takes Dual Meet
by 88 to 43 Score.
Arthur Tuck, of the Oregon varsity
broke the Pacific coast javelin record in
the meet with the University of Wash
ington last Saturday, which AA’ashington
won by a score of 88 to 43. Tuck’s
throw measured 192 feet, 4 inches.
Tuck was allowed three throws after
the regular competition throws and it
was on one of these that he made his
record. Coach Bill Hayward claims that
the throw is a national record, although
there is some dispute regarding this.
Oregon’s sprint team sprung some
surprises in the dashes. AVashington was
figured to take at least two and probably
three places in both the 100 yard and
220 yard dashes. In the hundred Lar
sen, of Oregon, stepped out and barely
lost the race by a few inches, lioscoe
Hemenway, of the Lemon-Yellow team
took third. In the 220, Larsen, Hemen
way and Oberteuffer were leading the
race until shortly before the finish when
they mistook the finish posts of the
shorter distance race for the end of the
220 and slowed. Larsen struck his stride
again and was then able to finish second.
Glenn AA’alkley won the mile for Ore
gon. He was figured for a first in the
iwo mile, but the mile was a hard one
ind he was only able to plade third.
Blackburn, of Oregon, gave Foster, of
Washington, a close race for first place
jut was able to get a second.
Gus Pope, of Washington, tried for a
, iew discus recond, and on one throw put
,| the plate ou* 154 feet, 4 inches. This
throw was disallowed as Pope stepped
, out of the ring. He should be able to
easily set a new record this year, how
. I ever.
] Blackab.v and Tuck tied for high point
! honors for Oregon. Each of these men
,j took a first, a second, ,and a third. Black
a by won the broad jump, took second in
the high jump, and a third in the high
hurdles. Tuck won the javelin, took a
second in the discus, and a third in the
shot.
I FOREIGN TRADE CLUB
* ORGANIZATION URGED
Meeting Will Be Held This Week For
1 Purpose of Forming New
Commerce Society.
plans fur the establishment of a for
1 eign trade club are to be discussed at a
1 meeting of foreign trade majors this
week. It is thought that with the orga
nization of such a club to co-operate
with the foreign trade branch of the
chamber of commerce of the administra
: tion school, that much more would be,
accomplished than to have either orga-'j
nization working alone.
It is expected that the chief object of
: the club will be to form a closer rela
tionship between the foreign trade stu
dents and men intimately connected with
the trade world. Trade experts and men
with practical knowledge of foreign trade
conditions will be obtained as speakers
for the various classes interested in that
subject. By these connections the stu
dent will gain close relationship with
experienced men with whom they may
I have dealings in future life when they
take up their chosen vocation. The ex
act date of the meeting will be an
nounced in the Emerald.

FOUR RUNS IN SIXTH
Bohler Uses Two Pitchers To
Stop Hitting; Rally
Started.
Staging a comeback in the Saturday
afternoon game, the Sun Dodgers took
the second of the series from the varsity
nine by a score of (5 to w, making it an
even break, although the Northerners
took both games of the series in Seattle
earlier in the season, which gives them
the edge. Saturday’s game was hardly
up to the standard of the first contest
and lacked the speed and finish, espec
ially on the part of the Oregon nine.
Coach Bolder used both his southpaw
twirlers in an effort to stop the Sun
Dodgers, sending Berg back into the
game Saturday, in place of Knudsen in
the sixth inning. The sixth was the fatal
inning for the varsity, the visitors put
ting over four runs before they were
st opped.
Coach Allison kept Leonard in the box
for the Sun Dodgers, and he pitched
good ball throughout the game, allowing
five hits, and in addition to this was re
sponsible for three of the six runs which
the Washington nine put across the
plate. Carl Knudsen, who worked on
the mound for the first six innings for
the varsity, also figured prominently in
the runs which Oregon chalked up, the
southpaw twirler slamming out a home
run in the sixth inning, the bases being
empty, however.
First Score in Third.
The Sun Dodgers put their first run
across in the third frame when Leonard
went to first on an error and made the
circuit,'^coming home on a wild throw
to first wheu Knudsen attempted to
catch Torrence napping off first. Land
preceded Leonard around the crieuit but
was caught in an attempt to steal home
This lone tally in the third completed
the scoring until the opening of the sixth
then the Sun Dodgers started their at
tack, and with the clearing away of the
smoke the scoreboard showed them tc
have slipped over four runs.
Leonard was the first man up in the
sixth and he reached first on an error.
Torrence followed Leonard and he also
took the initial sack on an error. Coach
Bolder sent Berg in for Knudsen, w’hen
Welts was walked, and with the bases
full, the big southpaw had a real task on
Ids hands. Knudsen pitched good ball

Concert Given by Portland
Symphony Orchestra Merits
Highest Praise Says Critic
By Leland A. Coon.
V
•'hat the s"tate of Oregon has a sym
phony orchestra deserving of its most
enthusiastic moral and financial support
was evidenced to the residents of Eugene
and out of town guests when the Portland
forces under the baton of Mr. Carl Den
ton appeared Saturday evening, ns the
gala musical event in connection with the
dedication of the Women’s building.
As a fitting comment and mark of ap
preciation of the genuine interest shown
by both conductor and players in their
task, let it be said that, for several years
they have, at great sacrifice and with
true devotion to artistic ideals, main
tained an organization of this calibre in
order that the residents of the northwest
might not be denied the necessary oppor
tunity of hearing the best in symphonic
music. No one who has ever spent even
the shortest time in musical centers will
deny that one of the most potent forces
in maintaining a musical atmosphere of
the highest type is a symphony properly
conducted and properly supported.
The numbers chosen for the Eugene
concert, from the Dvorak “New World’’
symphony to Halvorsen’s Triumphal
March, which completed the program
called for an enormous variety of moods
which the Portlanders succeeded very
well in portraying. The brass and string
sections showed up especially well in the
Liszt Preludes; the oboe added its som
bre bit in the largo of the symphony with
telling effect.
David Campbell, in whom the Univer
sity is directly interested, proved beyond
the shadow of a doubt that he was well
fitted to sustain the enviable reputation
which had preceded him. He showed
himself an artist of unlimited technical
vocabulary, possessing an unswerving erf
act idea of tonal balance, and that ele
ment. of soul which elevates the true
genius from the mire of the common
place. Dazzling octave passages, lus
cious melodies in graceful uuauee, well
timed pedaling combined to make liis
playing a most happy and satisfying ex
perience. long to be remembered.
Would that more people might contract
the much-to-be-desired habit of attending
orchestral concerts, and of thus acquaint
ing themselves with a musical form in
which so many, we find, are none too well
versed. Only through experience can
such knowledge be obtained.

MOTHERS' If MIT BE
MIL CIMPUS EVENT
Visitors Notice Many Ghanges
In Recent Years.
“We hope the mothers of University
students will mnke this an annual event,”
thus Carlton Savage, president of the
A. S. IJ. O., expressed the sentiment of
the entire student body of the University
of Oregon, at the Mothers’ Day vesper
| service in Villard hall, on Sunday.
I Mothers begun to arrive on Friday and
by Saturday morning it seemed that they
were a real part of the campus. The
Women’s building on Saturday morning
was the principal attraction and after
that the inspection of the campus occu
pied their time. Perhaps the most in
terested of the visiting mothers were
those who were formerly students of the
University. No student truly realizes the
changes that the last few years liftve
brought to the campus until he hears the
comments of these former students and
their comparison of things as they used to
be with things as they are.
Following tin- inspection trip, the cam
pus luncheon attracted everyone, both
students and visitors. Plenty of good
things to eat, good music and the real
Oregon Spirit of good fellowship made?
this one of the most enjoyable events of
the entire week-end.
Saturday afternoon the program and
receptions at the Women’s building, the
tea at Susan Campbell hall and the base
ball game attracted many. A number
of informal dinners were given in honor
of visiting mothers in the evening und
then the Symphony concert provided the
evening’s pleasure.
Sunday, however, was really Mothers'
Day and it was then that the visiting
mothers were most honored. Every church
in the city was the scene of u special
service in the morning. In the afternoon
the vesper service at Villurd hall was
the University contribution to the day’s
observance. After the opening musical
program the mothers were welcomed by
Carlton Savage. The response was given
by Mrs. Richard Cartwright, of Salem.
The principal address of the afternoon
was given by Professor Graham Taylor
of Chicago. lie paid an eloquent to the
mothers of America and their self-sacri
ficing loyalty.
Following the Vesper service the Y
W. C. A. cabinet members entertained at
a tea at the bungalow. Miss Gertrude
Talbot presided, in the absence of Dean
Fox. and the cabinet members were as
sisted by Mrs. John Stark Evans, presi
dent of the advisory board, and Miss
Dinsdale, secretary of the association.

men as equal to the men,” said President
Campbell. “The Women’s building rnean.
a beginning of a larger period in the edu
cation of the women of Oregon.
“This structure,” he continued, “is hut
the beginning of the women’s quadrangle
which will consist of the halls of resi

Campbell, who have been so long aucl so
vitally interested in the Women’s build
ing.

Lawrence, in whichWie told of the actual
construction of the building, H. Snook'
the contractor who has carried out the
work after the death of W. O. Heckart
entrusted the keys to Judge Hamilton
president of the board of regents, who
accepted the building in the name of the
people of Oregon.
“The building we are dedicating today
fills a long-felt want.” he said. "It is
a pleasing thought; woman is coming to
us in broader fields where her noble vir
tues shall assist men in the control and
the management of greater and more im
portant affairs of this great nation of
ours. To her, this building is dedicated.”
