SECOND CONFERENCE
SERIES HERE TORI)
Coach Bohler Refuses to Di
vulge Lineup; Fast Game
Is Expected.
FAST BALL NEEDED
TO DEFEAT VISITORS
Professional Tactics Looked
For In Contest; Rooting
Orowd Wanted.
With the Washington State C’ollegr
nine as the opposition, the varsity will
start the second series of conference
games on the home diamond this after
noon at 3:80 o’clock. As usual, Coach
Bolder does not wish to give out any in
formation as to what his probable lineup
will be and, in fact, the Oregon mentor
will send a lineup against the Northern
ers who will be best able to meet the
pitcher whom the Cougar coach decides
to start. This also holds true as to the
battery which Coach Bohler will start,
and it is not known just who will be on
the mound for the varsity when the game
opens. Berg, Knudsen, Jacobsen, M.
Latham, Gray and Durno are all in line
for a job on the mound and it remains
to be seen who will be sent in this af
ternoon.*
In the opinion of Coach Bohler, the
Washington State nine is stronger than
the Sun Dodger aggregation and it will
be up to Oregon to put-up a pretty fast
brand of baseball if they are to win from
the Pullmanites. Washington State has
an ex-professional baseball player hold
ing down the coaching job and profes
sional baseball tactics may be expected
to be used in the game here.
Coach Bolder criticises the attitude of
the student fans in regard to attending
the baseball games, and his remarks ap
pear to be rather timely. The. attendance
at baseball games has been very poor
indeed so far this season and there is
every reason to believe that the fans are
not getting behind the team. A good
snappy rooting crowd counts for much in
the snap which will characterize the play
ing of the team, and the rooters’ section
lias been very small so far this season.
An effort to get the band out for the
game today is being made, and more pep
and -snap is wanted.
Sidney George, coach of the Eugene
high school nine, will handle the indicator
in these two contests, both of which arc
s'ated to begin promptly at 3:30 o’clock
Coach Bolder did not. spare his squad
jesterday and sent them against Bill
Steers’ husky frosh aggregation. The
pitching squad was given a good workout
and from the appearance of the men in
the box, it. is probable that Coach Bolder
will make his selection for the twirler
this afternoon.
The remainder of the infield will prob
ably bo the same as that sent against j
AVashington, with the outfield positions
vet in doubt.

OF GERMAN COLLEGES
Pr°f. T. H. Gentle Says There Are N
Quizzes in Teuton Universities;
Cellars Are Popular.
Among the interesting visitors at th
Mothers’ Day program were Professo
and Mps- Th<»nas H. Gentle, of Mon
mouth. Mr. Gentle is professor of edu
cation in the Oregon State Norma
School.
During their visit here, Professor Gen
tie, who was educated at the TTniversit;
of Jena, in Germany, spoke to Dr
k chmidt’s class in elementary German
In German colleges there is no roll
call, said Professor Gentle. If a studem
wishes to come to class, he comes; oth
erwise, he stays away. If he choose;
to read the references given at the lee
tores, all well and good; if he doesn’t
all well and good. And there are nt
quizzes—not even finals at the end oi
the year. During his whole university
career the student has only to botliei
with one examination—the graduatior
exam, lint that is a real one!
It is au oral examination, and some
times lasts for two or three days. Each
student takes it separately* He sits at
the head of a long table in “The Green
Room.” Around the table are seated
his major professor and all his minor
professors, who take turns shooting ques
tions at him on their respective courses.
Professor Gentle caused considerable
stir among his listeners when he told
them that every fraternity house of Ger
man universities had a large, cool cellar
containing barrels, bottles and kegs.
Professor Gentle has two sons at the
T'niversity of Oregon,
ADVERTISING CLASS
F. H. McMahon Says Newspa
per Is (Jetting National Ads.
The work done by the merchandising
bureau of the Oregon Journal for the
advertiser was explained by F. H. Mc
Mullen to the class in advertising yes
terday. Mr McMahon is the director of
the bureau, which was created by the
Journal to co-operate with the advertis
ing bureaus and with the manufacturers
to secure better results from advertis
ing.
A thorough investigation and analysis
of the situation in regard to ^ny special
f cmmodity is undertaken by the bureau
said Mr. McMahon, and this information
is supplied to the advertiser. This is a
comparatively new service undertaken by
the newspapers, but according to the
speaker, it has proven successful to a
high degree.
The newspaper is beginning to take the
place of the magazine to a great extent
in national advertising, Mr. McMahon
stated, as the national media did not
prove to be, as highly efifcient. The na
tional media, or the magazines, are
ail right if the article advertised has a
national consumption, otherwise there is
a waste of advertising. He showed how
there might be a lack of co-operation be
tween the dealers and the national media
resulting in a low percentage of dis
tribution. The merchandising bureau
overcomes this fault by direct connection
with the dealers. Tlfe speaker gave sev
eral examples of campaigns which had
been put across by the merchandising
bureau after they had been apparent fail
aes when the magazines were used.
'1 he department store gets results, said
Mr. McMahon, because they advertise
t iday. display today and sell today, bring
ing til their forces into coordination.
AYith (lie foreign advertising, the result
mav be just the opposite. The dealer
must be in a position to offer the goods
at the same time they are advertised. He
must also be educated to the value of
play.
Advertising in the national media is
pensive, and to come out even the ad
jtiser must get about 100 per cent
Iribution. The advertisers are becoin
- i ware of this fact, according to Mr
•Mahon, and the newspapers are mak
, inroads upon the advertising of the
floral magazines.

' LIFE OF STUDENTS
: WRITTEN FOR MOVIE
■ Additional Material Wanted
By Alfred Powers For
Film Production.
SCENES ON CAMPUS
WILL BE PORTRAYED
Action Will Center Around
Treasured Traditions
of University.
Plans’are progressing for the Junior
Week-end cinema production, according
to Alfred Powers, who is in charge of
the movie, and Harry Smith, who will
direct it. A scenario has been worked
up. but any additional material or sug
gestions will be gladly received. These
should be in by the first of next week.
The scenario ns at present prepared
depicts well the life of students on the
Oregon campus, and especially the events
of Junior Week-end, and will be a means
heretofore unequalled of bringing before
the people of every town and village in
the farthest corners of the state, or
wherever the picture is shown, a knowl
edge of the institution that are support
ing with their taxes. The picture should
also be a good means of influencing many
students to come to Oregon. The home
town people will be glad to see pictures
of the Oregon students from their re
spective localities.
Canoe Shown In Mill Race.
Starting with random shots of the Ore
gon campus, the reel will show the boat
house, with a boy and a girl getting into
a canoe, and starting up the race. For
a conclusion, after Junior Week-end has
been depicted, and the various races of
the coast conference meet have been
run, the last scene will show a sunset on
the mill race, and ns the boy and tip?
gii-1 slowly come back down the race, the
picture will fade out to its end.
Various typical Oregon scenes will be
filmed. Such appropriate sub-titles as
“Everybody Says ‘Hello!’”, showing stu
dents greeting each other on Hello Lane;
“Frosli Letter-Men,” showing the frosb
painted with an O. and upperclassmen
nearby with paint, show the kind of pic
ture that will be produced.
Action at Fountain.
An extract from the campus cloan-up
day part of the picture is interesting:
Fade in—frosh smoking leisurely on
smoking bench near Ad. building. Frosh
hears senior police—looks apprehensive.
Street scene. Senior police march into
scene and exit. The senior police. En
ter police halt—chief questions frosh,
frosh gives unsatisfactory answer—they
I take him between ranks—exit marching
towards fountain. Fountain. Enter
police—halt—take frosh and dip his head
in water—give him a shovel—make him
stoop ovei—paddle him chief signifies:
‘Now get to work!’ Exit frosh running.”
The complete scenario is now in the
hands of Alfred Powers, but some chang
es may be made before the filming of
the picture next week, and any sugges
tions, or scenarios for additional scenes
to include in the film will be gladly re
ceived.
SENIOR^JREAKFAST

Woman’s Building to House Guests of
Mrs. Campbell and Y. W. C. A.
On Saturday.
The old tradition will remain the same
at the senior breakfast this year except
ing that it will be held in the sun parlor
at the Woman’s building instead of in
Mrs. P. L. Campbell’s home. This change
is necessary because of the large number
of girls who will attend. Mrs. Campbell
and the Y. W. C. A. will be the hostesses
The junior and sophomore girls of
the Y. W. C. A. are going to take the
seniors. A list will be published soon

Who Is to Be Your Favorite?
Candidates for Student Body
Offices Give Out Platforms
What will tho candidates for the more
important A. S. U. O. offices do if they
are elected? What is their platform?
Jt is to answer this question that tlie
Emerald has secured a statement from
each of the candidates for the more im
portant student offifees, namely, presi
dent, vice-president, secretary and editor
of the Emerald. %
Asked by an Emerald reporter to give
an informal platform, stating what his
aims would be if elected, the candidates
for these offices have written the follow
yig. Each candidate is supposed to have
prepared his own statement, without
consulting that of any other candidate.
The statements follow:
A. S. U. O. President.
Lyle Bartholemew.—“I stand for a
Greater University of Oregon. I believe
in furthering Oregon Spirit, in upholding
our traditions, and in increasing our
numbers by the best students in and out
side the state. I believe in higher scho
lastic standards for the University. If
elected, I will do my best to administer
the affairs of the associated students
impartially and fairly, keeping in mind
that the growth of the student body de
mands new ideas and customs.”
'Elston Ireland.—‘‘The University of
Oregon is undergoing a great change, our
growth and development will continue
through the coming year and new prob
lems will arise. With the increased
enrollment a concrete scheme whereby
the Oregon Spirit, may be more firmly
inculcated in the student body must be
devised. The new constitution must be
carefully administered, that its defects,
if any, may be quickly discovered and
corrected. Committees must be care
tully selected, that they may function
most efficiently. Student body issues
Vmst not be mixed with narrow, person
nl controversies. Minor activities nmsl
be more strongly supported by the stu
dents. An organization similar to tilt
U. of \V. Knights of the Hook must be
effected to entertain visiting teams, han
dle incidental duties of athletic contest*
and promote Oregon Spirit. I fully
realize these most important student
body necessities, and I will, if elected,
endeavor to accomplish these aims.”
A. S. U. O. Vice-President.
Ogden Johnson.—“I am for Oregon
first. It' elected, I will use whole efforts
to promote the interests of the Univer
sity. 1 will try to serve the entire stu
dent body on the committees of which I
am a member, to work for an efficient
and careful expenditure of the A. S. U.
O. funds and to ease the burden on the
president of the student body whenever
possible.
Norton Winnard.—“I stand for a
greater and mightier Oregon. Three
things seem essential to this end. First,
a closer co-opeuption of every student in
student body activities; second, efficiency
and fairness in administration; third,
democracy on the campus.”
A. S. U. O. Secretary.
Ilutli Austin.—"For the greatest
amount of co-operation among all the
branches of the student government, and
the fairest possible service, whether in
large matters or small, I promise to work
if elected secretary.”
Helen Carson.—"I will work for a
greater Oregon and an efficient student
administration.”
Marvel Skeels.—“If the students of the
University see fit to elect me to the of
fice of secretary of the associated stu
dents, I will, to the best of my ability,
carry out the trust which they place in

II. OF C. EXPLAINS
BEFOSIL TO ENTER
TEIMI BIG MEET
Second Squad Suggestion Is
Result of Desire For
Cooperation.
CRITICISMNOT FAIR,
IS MANAGER’S VIEW
California Has Been Member
of I. C. A. A. A. A. Longer
Than of Coast League.
A communication received by acting
Graduate Manager .Tack Benefiel, from
L. A. Nichols, graduate manager of the
University of California, explains Cali
fornia’s action in regard to the recent
controversy over the Pacific Coast Con
ference meet.
Xo further advices have been received
from Stanford in regard to its stand on
the matter, Stanford having refused to
enter a team in the Pacific meet also,
due to the fact that Stanford wishes to
send their team to the I. C. A. A. A. A.
Meet. The case of California as received
in the communication is as follows:
Manager Writes Explanation.
“In view of the feeling of certain mem
bers of the Pacific Const Conference
toward California’s proposal to send its
second team to Eugene, we feel that it is
advisable to withdraw our entry from the
meet. In explanation of the California’s
suggestion of entering a second team,
will say that I feel that the motive was
based on a desire for hearty co-operation
with the Conference, and not on a feel
ing of superiority in any way. We fully
expected our team to be defeated, but
realizing the importance of the Pacific
Coast Conference we were williug to
make that, sacrifice as an expression of
our hearty support and interest in the
Conference.
we nave been for many years a mem
ber of the I. C. A. A. A. A. and during
that time have entered a team every
year or every other year. In view of
the fact that we have been competing in
this meet for a much greater length of
time than in the Pacific Coast Confer
ence and have never placed better than
third, it is only natural that it is our
desire to send our Varsity East this
summer, as we have an excellent chance
of finishing near the top. This seems
to bo the logical year to send our team
to the I. O. A. A. A. A. and I am sure
that any member of the Conference
would feel the same way if placed in our
position.
Could Not Forsee Conflict.
“At. tlu> time of the last Conference
meeting I did not forsee the possible
conflict between theese two meets, and
have since made an effort to have the
date of the Conference meet changed
in order that the California Varsity
might attend both meets, which I feel
are practically of equal importance. I
hope that you wall see the situation in
this light and understand that California
is very anxious to do all that she can in
the support of the Pacific Coast Con
ference. I wish to assure all members
of the Conference that California does
not intend to assume a dictatorial at
titude in any way, realizing that strength
lies in co-operation and that the Con
ference can effectively and permanently
cdst only through the unity of spirit
and purposes of every member.
“I realize that this situation is very
unfortunate and assure you that ex
perience is the best teacher and that
any recurrence of sueh a situation will
be avoided in the future.
“I also feel that the ciritieisra which
has come from the Oregon papers, as
well as many of the other Northern
papers, is entirely unmerited, as there
is no institution in the Conference which
lias the welfare of the Pacific Coast Con
ference more at heart than the University
of California.
DANCE AT ANCHORAGE
Firday Afternoon, from 3:30 to 5:30, Is
Time For Jitney Hop.
(Jet your nickles ready for Friday af
ternoon, because the Washington club io
going to give a jitney dance at the An
chorage from .3:30 to 5:30. There will
be the best music to be had, and the af
fair will be very informal, according to
Hall Smith, president of the club.
There may be an initial charge of 25
cents, but this provides for five dances
and the rest of the time 5 cents will be
sufficient for each dance. “Come right
over from classes and prepare for a good
lime,” said Hall Smith.
