Many Last dear’s Musicians
Back, Good Material
Among New
CONCERT IS IN PROSPEC1
Schubert’s* Unfinished Sym
phony to be Played at
Home Performance
“We have some excellent material
for a University orchestra this year’:
said Bex Underwood, director. Many
of the best musicians of last year are
back and in addition to these there
are several new students who are ex
ceptionally good musicians. It is plan
ned that the first concert will be given
in Eugene, probably within the next
month. Numbers are already in prep
aration for this concert and will in
clude “The Merry Wives of Windsor”
Overature, Schubert’s “Unfinished
Symphony” and other favorites.
Miss Lora Teshner, who was a cel
list in the University orchestra two
y-ears ago, has returned this y-ear and
in addition to teaching ’cello in the
school of music Miss Teschner will
play with the orchestra. For the past
year she has been acting as ’cello
soloist with the Lieurance Little Sym
phony Orchestra, on the Ellison-White
Chatauqua circuit.
Miss Clark Back
Miss Beulah Clark, flutist, who left
the University- early last spring to
spend a season with the chatauqua,
has returned this fall and will play
in the orchestra.
John Anderson, of the orchestra last
year, as well as an accomplished ’cel
list has decided to broaden his work
this year and has laid aside his ’cello
for the double bass. Mr. Anderson has
christened his instrument “Tony” and
according to Mr. Underwood if one
can judge from the .way John is
playing this fall “Tony” must
fust have been a faithful companion
during the summer. At any rate
University musicians have a right to
expect some excellent work on the
part of John and “Tony” during the
coming winter. Anderson has recently
been chosen president of the orchestra
organization.
.a. numDer or concert trips will be
taken by the orchestra this year, the
first probably just before Christmas.
There will be no trip during Christmas
holidays, but a long trip will be taken
during the spring vacation.

Senior Bust
Staged Under
Smoke Clouc
I Into the hall of annual scholasti
I history last night was placed th
senior bust. Don’t get the impressioi
that the class of ’22 has sculpture!
! itself a composite figure with the par
1 \ nearest the clouds decked with head
gear similar in style to that worn b;
the campus Pioneer and placed it ii
; the hall of history. The senior bus
I referred to was the syncopated variety
! an indoor pienie with plenty of musii
i and other forms of sport usually as
I sociated with the campus intellectuals
The men’s gym was not overb
I crowded. It has been suggested tha
i the cofparatively small number in at
| tendance is indicative of the grea’
| casultv which depletes the ranks ol
i that species of Homo sapiens whiel
| attempts to browse around the greer
pastures of a college during four sue
eessive years.
But, as Charlie Darwin would have
said had he strolled among the unse
dated seniors who frolicked very spryly
in the gyrm last night, the fittest will
survive. There were more women than
men in attendance.
Shortly after 9:00 Bead, campus
photographer, unlimbered his artillery
While the smoke of the flashlight
still hung cloud-like close to the ceil
ing, doughnuts were carried and cidei
rolled to the place where eats were
served.
To paraphrase the words of Dean
Straub applied to the majority of the
seniors four years previously, it was
the best senior bust ever known at the
University of Oregon.
! FAUST WILL APPEAR AS REX
INSTEAD OF STEARNS
“ Swan-white, ” Fantasy by Strindberg,
Chosen for Christmas Play; Milne
Comedy for Third Term
A change has been made in the cast
of “Why Marry?” by Jesse Lynch
Williams, the first play to be put on
by the Company this year, and when
it is produced in Guild hall the first
or the second week in November Del
bert Faust will appear as Rex, in the
place of George Stearns, who has with
drawn from the University. The other
leading parts in the play are to be
taken by Irene Stewart, Claire Keeney,
Doris Pittinger, and Nor veil Thomp
son.
“Swanwhite,” a fantasy by August
Strindberg and translated from the
Sweedish by Edwin Bjorkman has been
selected for the Christmas play as it
has become a sort of a tradition on
the campus that the Company put on
a fantasy near Christmas time. The
play offers wonderful possibilities in
stage setting as well as in character
work. The leading parts will be played
by Virgil Mulkey, Lorna Coolidge, and
Charles Fish.
The third play which wiW be pro
duced in Guild hall this term is “Be
linda,” a three act comedy by A. A.
Milne. The comedy of the play lies
in the work of Belinda, a reckless flirt
who has lost her husband 18 years before
—he had slamAed the door and
went off to shoot bears in America.
It is a true comedy and everything
ends nicely when Belinda’s husband
comes home.
The part of Belinda will be played
by Charlotte Banfield and the other
leading parts by: Edwin Keech, the
husband; Arthur Johnson, a statisti
cian: and Darrel Larson, a poet.
Seniors to Pit Brains
Against Brawn of Other
Classes in Basketball
Do you want to see a real scrappy,
fightup hard basketball game? If you
do all that is required is that you re
vive the old class spirit, add a lot of
pep, and come around to the men’s
gym next Monday evening at 4 o ’clock,
when the seniors meet the juniors in
the first game of the interclass ser
ies. The freshmen play the sophomores
at five the same evening, and the
winners' will play the final game for
the championship Tues«Jay at four
o ’clock.
The wearers of the sombreros, ac
cording to Leith Abbott, president of
the class, have been so engrossed in
the exciting and closely contested mus
tache race that no tea u or captain has
yet been selected. Probable candi
dates for the team are Veatch, Sloan,
Abbott, Alexander Brown, and Evans,
not to mention Harry A. Smith, who
should show up the other centers with
his 6 feet plus. Abbott expressed the
opinion that although the seniors
haven’t got the material for an es
pecially brilliant team of hoopers,
they have the brains to back them up,
and with the aid of said brains will
attempt to dope out some method by
which they will be able to slicker the
other classes. “We may even have ten
of our men on the floor at once unless
the referee objects strenuously,” he
stated.
The juniors who carried off the
championship last year will enter a
team composed mainly of the old squad.
Several of their mainstays are not in
school now, but there is a great deal of
material to pick from. Zimmerman
will no doubt play center, Beaver and
Rockhey at forward, with Burnett,
Couch, or Fraser as guards.
The members of the team when asked
for their opinions, wei^ frankly con
fident of their ability. “We won last
year, and there is no reason why we
should not do it again,” was the ver
dict. “We will give any of the teams

Budget Makes Study by Heads
of Departments Possible;
Much Is Done
MILNE MAKES DISCOVERY
Solution of Problem is Helc
Important in Physics
and Engineering
A large amount of research work
has been done in the various Univer
sity departments this year due to the
fact that this is the first time that
the University has set aside a definite
budget of money for research purposes.
Although the funds were not available
until late in the spring a considerable
amount of work has already been ac
complished and reported.
Most of these projects which are be
ing worked on by faculty members are
of such a nature that they will require
many months of intensive work. This
is true of the problem of Dr. A. E.
Caswell, professor of physics, who is
interested in the study of liermo
electric properties of metals, research
work on which he commenced a year
ago when he spent a leave of abience
at Johns Hopkins University.
Grants Being Worked Upon
Many of the pieces of research for
which grants were given by the re
search committee are being worked
I upon as rapidly as possible this fall and
| it is expected that within two or three
months more investigators will have
interesting reports to make.
The research committee, consisting
i of Dr. E. L. Packard, Prof. E. W.
Milne, Dean H. D. Sheldon, Prof. E.
| C. Bobbins, Dr. H. B. Torrey and
Prof. E. H. McAlister, regrets that
the changes in the school of law pre
vented the completion of contemplated
work on the study of Oregon laws which
was to have been undertaken by Prof.
T. A. Larremore and Prof. S. B. Warner.
Much research work in the Univer
sity is also done under private means,
thus not coming to the attention of
the committee.
Solution is Found
Prof. W. E. Milne of the mathematics
department has obtained a solution of
a problem in vibratory motion and is
now preparing an article for publica
tion giving the results of toe discovery.
The theory is important in physics,
engineering and hydraulics and among
other things its solution will assist in
the solving of the problem of surge
chambers, according to Prof. Milne, who
began work on the solution while at
tending summer school at the Univer
sity of California a year ago and who
during the past year worked out the
theoretical side of the problem.
Computations of tables necessary to
make the work practical were made
by Miss Harrington, who had previously
been engaged in preparing tables for
the government ordinance department
in Washington, D. C., and Aberdeen,
Md. She- was in Eugene three months,
her services being paid by funds
granted by the research committee.
One of the computations carried
through for checking purposes to six

CALIFORNIA IS WINNER
IN GAMES THIS WINTER
Apparent Slump in Playing Compared
With Last Year’s Work; Changes
in Lineup Held Probable
University of California, Berkeley,
Cal., Oct. 21—(P. I. N. S.)—California
has won all games that have been
played this season but not by the over
whelming scores that marked the play
ing of the 1920 team. Not a game has
been a walkaway, in fact, most of
them have been close.
In the last game the team was forced
to the limit to defeat the strong Paci
fic fleet eleven with its four All
American players. California could
not stop the charge of the sailor team
during the first quarter and it was
not until the second period that the
Navy advance was stopped and the
scoring begun that finally won the
game, 21-10.
There seem to be two reasons for
this apparent slump in the playing of
the team as compared with that of
last year’s eleven. The first of these
lies in the fact that Coach “Andy”
Smith has put the ban on large scores,
and the second may be traced to injur
ies.
Capable Sub in For Muller
is out of the game for the rest of the
“Brick” Muller, All-American end,
season with a broken bone in the knee
joint received in the game with the
University of Nevada two weeks ago.

Oskies to Rise in Villard
K PLAYS WILL HE
RECEIVED III HALL
Miniature Gridiron is Made
To Show Progress of
California Game
DANCERS WILL HEAR NEWS
Oberteuffer Expects Every
Student Able to be
Out For Rally
“Oregon’s ball, Johnson 10 yards
through right Jackie,” shouts' Yell
King Oberteuffer through his mega
phone to the Thundering Thousand
gathered in Villard hall.
“All right, a big osky,” and Rose
braugh begins to uncoil himself as the
Thundering Thousand roars an osky
that will be echoed in Berkeley, across
that gridiron where 11 fighting var
sity men will be tearing into the Bruin
line.
This will be the scene that will be
staged this afternoon as the big game
is in progress on the California grid
iron.
Plays to be Illustrated
But the setting has not all been ex
plained yet. Dan Welch, architectural
genius, has designed a miniaturo grid
iron, it has goal posts and yardage
lines and footballs, in fact everything
but the players. There will be the
Oregon football painted green, and the
California football painted in Blue and
Gold. When Oregon goes 10 yards
through the California tackle the green
ball will move forward 10 yards on
that miniature gridiron. If Oregon
punts the green ball will cover the dis
tance down the field to where Cali
fornia receives the ball, (if California
doesn’t fumble) it will then be re
placed by the blue and gold ball which
will also be moved up the field, (per
haps).
Direct Communications Made
Wire connections with the field at
Berkeley wore completed by the emer
ald last night, and with an expert
operator to receive the messages on
the stage directly in front of the
rooters, the dramatic scene of today’s
big game will be enacted before your
eyes.
The Emerald staff composed of Curly
Lawrence, Harry Smith, Leith Abbott,
Pete Allen and Ken Youel has charge
of the arrangements. The announce
ments of the play by play series will
be made as they come off the wrire by
Yell King Obie Oberteuffer, the oskies
will be tuned up by the assistant yell
leaders, Larson, Woods land Rose
braugh.
League to Get Plays
Not to be outdone entirely, tfio Wo
men’s league has contracted with the
Emerald to secure the play by play,
reports to be announced at the spon
sor-sponsee dance in the Woman’s
building. An endless chain of fresh
men messengers will operate between
Villard hall and the Woman’s build
ing carrying the news of the play by
play returns as they come off the wire.
Ella Rawlings, president of the
Women’s league states that there will
be a co-ed announcer to ry out the
news to the co-eds. “And we are going
to have our oskies, too,” was Ella’s
parting word after completing the ar
rangements.
Rally a Student Affair
“We’re going to have the whole
gang at this rally,” was Obie’s answer
to the question of an Emerald repor
ter as to how many would be there
to get the returns. “This is a stu
dent rally and you know what that
means, and the old fight ar.d pep will
be there.”
The place is Villard hall, the time
will be in the vicinity of 3 o’clock.
Just as soon as the freshman-Mt. Angel
college game closes, the reports will
be read to the assemblage.
O. A. C. DEAN 18 GUEST
Miss Mary Rolfe. new dean of wo
men at O. A. C. will visit the campus
this week-end as a gu-st of Dean Fox.
Miss Bolfe will have luncheon at Hen
dricks hall Saturday and will be a
guest of the women of the University
at the sponsor dance to be given Sat
urday afternoon.

Ml ANGEL COMING
WITH STRONG TEAM
FOR BATTLE TODAY
Frosh Squad Defense Strong
But Offensive Weak; Men
Picked to Start Game
Come out ami see ’em go!
This afternoon ut 2 the freshmen
i griilsters battle with Mt. Angel on
J Hayward field. Mt. Angel has a
[ strong aggregation and is out after the
frosh goat. The yearlings don’t think
j they will got it, Ooaehes Baz Wil
liams and Everett Brandenberg are not
so sure.
A week ago Mt. Angel defeated by
a 7-6 score, the strong Columbia Uni
versity team. They are to play a team
as yet untried by foreign warriors,
but a team that has lots of confidence
and fight. At the beginning of the
football season the majority of the
men knew little or nothing about the
game, and it Hiked for a time as
though the coaches had a hopelpss
job. Little by little the original 100
| aspirants fell away until the number
I dwindled to about .'15. With this bunch
j of .'15 men the coaches have labored
j tirelessly from the start, giving every
j man the opportunity to develop all
he had in him in the way of football
material. As a result, all of them
know the game.
Backfield is Fast
As a team the freshmen are by no
means perfect. However their weak
ness lies in offensive rather than in the
defensive work. The plays do not
work as smoothly as might bo hoped,
but the backfield is fast, somewhat off
setting this'drawback. Another weak
place is in punting. Lovelace has a
good boot, but is not yet consistent
| enough.
Practice for the past two weeks has
consisted of board work, scrimmage,
running signals and punting. Hlpz
has been working on a few plays try
ing to perfect them during the last
week. The scrimmage with the Var
sity on Tuesday aided the coaches ma
terially in strengthening the weak
places in the lineup, and enabling them !
to get an inkling as to how the men
would act under fire.
In the scrimmage against the letter
men the freshmen proved that Haz and
Brandy had not done their work for
nothing. At times it was difficult to
tell which of the teams was doing the
best work. In; the defensive work
Baz-s men smeared several of the Var
sity plays behind the line, and in the
offensive succeeded in connecting two
forward passes.
Men in Good Condition
In the backfield Brandy will start
the following men: Smith at Quarter,
French or Langrcll at full, Barton at
right half, and Bagiev at left half.
On the line Baz will start Wilson or 1
Reinhart at c enter,, Godecke at right
guard. Broeker at right tackle, Bliss !
at right end, Quinn at left guard,
Spear at left tackle, ami Davidson at
left end.
Art Sutton, one of the speediest men
on the squad, will relieve Bagloy at
left half during the game.

Coaches' statements: “Shy" Hun
tington, “The boys are rarln* to
go. Will put up the best fight
possible. Not able to use How
ard.” Andy Smith: “The boys will
ftgbt like the devil but are not
in best of condition.”
Today’s the day and the Oregon
football machine, the first wave of
the northern football invasion will en
deavor to fulfill the slogan of the
Beason; “Beat California.” The green
Oregon varsity will attempt to “Beat
California” with the prayers of the
north at its back; though down there
around the Bay City they don’t take
the attempt very seriously. The Var
sity is termed on all sides as “mighty
easy meat” for the California machine
and football critics not only in the
south but also in the northwest pre
dict a Lemon-Yellow defeat at the
hands of Smith’s men by from two to
five touchdowns, varying with indi
vidual taste in the matter.
Smith Expects Fight
Andy Smith was of the opinion that
California would win by several touch
downs, but expressed himself recently
as believing the Blue and Gold would
have to fight every foot of the way
and that he is in doubt over the out
come. California teams have won but
vent of Andy Smith as coach, in 1918
once against the varsity since the ad
that, Smith saw his iceberg defense
melt away before the fire of the Ore
gon attack.
And though the present varsity has
no Bill Steers to direct her attack
anil pick up points, three at a clatter,
with his educated toe, or to smash the
Blue and Gold line with the shock of
his attack; though they have no Hun
tington to carry the ball, no “Fat”
Mautz or Ken Bartlett to roll back
the Bruin offense, there is a team down
there that knows they’ve got to fight
every minute. A team that appreciates
the strength of the eleven it faces.
In spite of Smith’s statement it is
only reasonable to suppose that Cali
fornia students, team and coaches are
confident of victory to the point of
overconfidence. So Oregon will have
the keenest appreciation of the situ
ation and California will have the op
portunity to justify their confidence.
Oregon Has Workout
The team is staying at the Hotel
Whitecotton in Berkeley, and worked
out yesterday on California field. The
workout was light and served to get
the men over the stiffening effect »f
their trip and in shape for the gruel
ling contest billed for today. The
squad is expected to leave San Fran
cisco at 10:30 tonight which will get
them in Eugene early Monday morn
ing.
The change in the line and back
field should smooth down and speed
up the work of both line anl back
field a great deal. “Tiny” Shields will
no doubt add a great deal of strength
to the right side of the line, while the
