Oregon Daily Emerald VOLUME XXiil. UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, EUGENE, FRIDAY. NOVEMBER 4, 1921. NUMBER 28 Welch Makes Many Changes in Lineup After Defeat by California Bears FEW INJURIES SUFFERED - \ Team for Battle With Lemon Yellow Still Uncertain; Moe Sax May Play By Thad Byrne, Associate Sport Editor The Evergreen, W. S. C. Since the defeat parcelled out to his pets by the Bears <Jn Multnomah field last Saturday, Coach Gus Welch has been driving his Cougar squad des perately, incessantly, in an effort to build up a winning combination against Gus Welch gregation next Sat u relay. “Gloomy” Gus knows Oregon's past gridiron record only too well to rely on any comparison of scores to win his gam'- * ' ' ’m. The fact that, even thus far into mid season, he is still shifting his men from first team to second team and from back field to line, shows that he is ^worried over the probable outcome of tomor row’s fracas. The Cougar mentor is taking no chances, as. the large squad of veterans with which lie started the sea son is nearly intact. No Players Lost permanently Washington State has possibly the shortest practice period every evening of any other school on the Coast, as j the men do not get out until 4:30. This handicap showed ^up plainly in last Saturday’s game—the Bruins win ning simply on a better knowledge of the fine points of the game. Thus far the Cougars have been for tunate enough to confine their cas ualty Hst to minor injuries, none of the players yet being lost permanently to the squad. “Curly” Skadan, who ; called signals in the first two practice j tilts of the season, has been bothered ! with a weak ankle, but is still turning j out with the second team. Few Players Sure of Places No one, not even the coaching staff, i will know who will start in tomorrow’s ! contest until the opening whistle ,due j to Welch’s policy of trying out new men each evening. Zaepfel and Hick ey, stars of last year’s game frosh, performed like veterans in the Bruin, melee, and will probably be in the line up. If the day is right for open field running, flashy little Moe Sax will; also start, although he did not get a chance to play at Portland. In the line, the only men who seem to be sure of their berths are Durrwachter, cap-1 tain Dunlap, and Dunton. Just who will call signals is a matter of con jecture, as this task has been performed successively by Sax, Skadan, and Me (Continued on page four) PICTURES FOR OREGANA DUE BY DECEMBER 3 Students to Start Making Appoint ments With Downtown Studios Alt pictures that are to appear in the 1922 Oregana must be taken before December 3. The .downtown studios, Tollman’s, MeKune and Bomane’s are now ready to begin on the work for the University students and in order that all of the solios may be made with in the stipulated time, the editorial staff of the Oregana urges that ap pointments be made at once. The staff also emphasizes the nec essity of ordering from the photogra pher a sufficient number of solios to include each organization to which the student belongs. Unless this is done, the staff can not promise that his picture will be included in all the ^ ari ous groups of which he is a member. According to those in charge, work en tailed by the use of individual pictures is very difficult, and the results can not be" satisfactory unless each student is willing to do his part—that is, have his picture taken early, and order one solio for eaeh time he expects his pict ure to appear in the book. O.A.C. Hopeful • from Prexy to Greenest Rook O. A. C. students are looking for ward with enthusiasm to the Oregon game, says Earl Kilpatrick of the extension division, tjho has just re turned from a trip to Corvallis, where he addressed the Benton county teachers’ association. Mr. Kilpatrick was present by invitation at the O. A. C. convocation, the bi-weekly as sembly, on Wednesday. A considerable part of the two honr assembly period, Mr. Kilpatrick said, was devoted to a rally with which the students greeted their team, just returned from defeat at the hands of Stanford. President Kerr expressed confi dence in the result of the Aggie game with Washington State College on Armistice day, and remarked con cerning the coming game with Ore gon: “Although we shall meet a fine team composed of excellent players at Eugene on November 19th, per sonally I have not the slightest doubt as to the result.” FRESHMAN ELEVEN READY FOR BATTLE WITH INDIAN TEAM Chemawans Have Good Rec ord This Season; Game to be Nov. 12 With two games in their wake Baz Williams’ freshman gridiron wranglers will struggle for honors against the strong Chemewa eleven tomorrow after noon on Hayward field. The Indian team is no weakling organization, hav ing shown up fairly well against the O. A. 0. varsity and against Willamette university. Coaches Williams and Brandenberg have been drilling the old plays into the men and getting a higher degree of efficiency in their execution. Run ning signals and light scrimmage con stitutes this week’s practice, the men being used up from the Washington game. By tomorrow they will be loos ened up enough to put all they have against the red men. Lovelace Replaced by Haak Now that Lovelace is out of the run ning, the frosh are in need of a punter. Lovelace, while a green hand at the game, showed unmistakable signs of developing into a real punter, and ac cording to Williams, did fine work against the Washington yearlings. The task of punting will probably fall to Haak, quarter. While he makes no record punts he is a good, heady, con sistent player, and should make a good showing against the invaders Satur day. The coaches are a bit skeptical about the outcome of the battle. Chemawa may have some dark horses to slip in against the freshmen. At any rate they are not looking for anything easy in the Indian team. Every now and then Chemawa springs a surprise in the way of an eleven, and it is about time for them to do it this year. Dope Favors Rook Team There remains but one game on the freshman schedule after tomorrow, and that with the O. A. C. rooks in Cor vallis November 12. The O. A. C. in fants are looking forward to this game with great anticipation, and^are sav ing their energy for the la'st great struggle of the year. Their victories over Columbia university and Albany college puts the dope in their favor, but Baz’s men are determined not to let the dope stand in their way in de feating their greatest rival. Tomorrow the freshmen meet a team more evenly opposed to them than they have heretofore this season. Mt. Angel was not in their class, and the Wash ington aggregation outplayed them in every department of the game, by vir tue of their long experience and heavier lineup. The Indians strike a happy medium, and the game should be a close one from the start. PRESBYTERIANS TO GIVE PARTY An Autumn party will be given Fri day evening Nov. 4, at the Central Presbyterian churchy 10th and Pearl street, by the Presbyterian Christian Endeavor. All students are invited. BETA ALPHA PSI ELECT8 Beta Alpha Psi announces the elec tion of Clyde Buck, Harold Simpson, Paul Scott, Joseph Olsen, Albert Niemi. Cluster Zuinwalt, Raymond Boyer, and Merrill Boyer. PLEDGING ANNOUNCEMENT Samara announces the pledging of Tsabele Nauerth and Rita Danford. II.DFO. conns ITS CHIEF ATTRACTIONS, SST MEW STUDENTS Scholastic Offerings, Oregon Spirit, Moderate Expense Liked by Many SPEAKERS HAVE EFFECT Athletic Prestige Attracts few; Advertising Has Small Influence “Most of the students who eome to the University of Oregon do so because they believe that it has distint ad vantages over other Universities in scholastic offering,” said Professor W. F. Q. Thacher of the English depart ment, while discussing the question naire system which he inaugurated at the beginning of this year. These questionnaires were given out for the purpose of finding out for just what reason the student selected the University, and whether the ad vertisement program which the Univer sity has been following has been pro ducing thfe proper results. The idea for this questionnaire came to Professor Thacher while he was in charge of the placing of the promotion literature of the University. Ads Poorly Placed At that time it seemed to him that many of the advertisements were be ing placed so that there was no return to the University. For this reason he prepared a list of questions to be sub mitted directly to the entering stu dents in order to learn at first hand their reasons for coming to Oregon. The object of the questionnaire, as it first appeared to Professor Thacher, was to find out what effect the adver tising program of the University had on prospective students, but later he decided to enlarge on this plan and in clude all the ^promotion plans of the school. The answers to the questions cover a wide field, and a great variety of different answers were given for the students’ preference of Oregon. Summary of Conclusions These questionaires were distributed to the freshmen taking the entrance English exauinations, and later to the different sections of the English class es. Of the number given out, 489 (Continued on page two) PROBLEM OFWOMAN IN INDUSTRY VITAL TO COLLEGE GIRLS Mrs. Millie Trumbull Addresses Joint Meeting of Y. W. C. A. And Woman’s League SURVEY ON STATE MADE Working Conditions in Facto ries, Telephone Offices and Laundries Cited “The problem of women in industry is as much the problem and the con cern of the college women as it is that of the working woman herself, for to day we are all working people. The working class is composed of every man and every woman who gives back to life something in return for what they take out of it,” said Mrs. Millio Trumbull, who addressed a joint meet ing of the Y. W. C. A. and Woman's league in Villard hall yesterday after noon. Mrs. Trumbull is the Secretary In spector of the State Industrial Wel fare commission and for the last three months she has made a survey of the working conditions for women in the state of Oregon. Conditions are Depicted Mrs. Trumbull spoke of conditions in laundrys, telephone offices, and factories; the long hours, the monotony of the work, the insufficient remun eration. She illustrated her points with stories from her actual experience with working girls. She urged college wo men to try to grow away from the attitude that working women are in a class remote and separate from that of educated young people. “We need college women today to help solve our problems,” said Mrs. Trumbull, “We need them because they can bring to us disciplined minds. But unless they can also bring us dis ciplined hearts we cannot use them. The war took down the wall between working women and college wgjnen and we don’t want it raised again. Regular Meeting Held Preceding Mrs. Trumbull’s talk the regular business* meeting of Woman’s Leaguo was held. Ella Rawlings, presi dent of the League, presided over the meeting. Miss Rawlings is td leave Saturday to attend a Woman's League (Continued on page four) ORDER OF io; WILL GATHER LETTERMEN WILE HOLD ANNUAL PARADE ON HAYWARD FIELD “Eat, Drink and be Merry” is Slogan For Homecoming Banquet of Old and New Varsity Athletes Oregon’S battling warriors of the gridiron, stars of the hoop, clouters of the horsebide pellet, favorites of the cinder paths and wielders of the rac quet—or in words of brevity—the Or red of the O, both past and present, will be on hand and take a most im portant part in this year’s Homecom ing celebration. Letters shave been sent to all alumni members of the order and it is expeeted that the number this year will far exceed that of last year when more than 90 men were present. A great many ^have already signified their in tention to return. “Eat, drink and be merry, for this afternoon we knock the tar out of the Aggies” w'ill be the slogan for the first get-together of the Order ^>f the O which will be in the nature of a ban quet at the Osburn hotel, November 19. Both letter men of old and letter men of today will be present on this occasion. j “Do you remember when Johnnie ParsonB plowed through the Aggie line for a 60-yard run on Thanksgiving dal* of 19— T” “Do you remember itf I was the person who dumped the only Aggie man in the way.” And so the talk will , go. Battles of by-gone days and bat tles of today will be fought over and | over again. From the Osburn they will be taken j by machines to the gymnasium. There i they will effeet a formation and the i second annual lettermen’s parade will start. On to Hayward field, across and around it, solem as the march of sen iors on graduation day, they will go. A solemnity which is in accordance with their rank, dignity and fame will be the feature of the parade.

Out of the 1736 Multnomah county leads, as usual, with 491, as compared with 398 lust year and 268 the year be fore. In Marion county the number has jumped from So for last year to 90 for this year and Clackamas has 50 as com pared with 39 enrolled in 1920. Coos has 61 as compared with 38 for last year. Other counties follow: Umatilla, 47; Jackson, 45; Yamhill, 41; Douglas, 39; Linn, 38; Yamhill, 41; Baker, 33; Wasco, 30; Washingtort, 29; Clatsop, I 29; Polk, 24; Union, 23; Benton, 21; Wallowa, 21; Hood River, 17; Colum bia, 16; Klamath Falls, 14; Deschutes, 14; Malheur, 14; Grant, 13; Josephine, 13; Sherman, 12; Morrow, 10; Lin-i coin, 7; Crook, 4; Tillamook, 4; Wheel-j er, 3; Gillam, 3; Harney, 3; Lake, 2; 1 I Curry, 1; Jefferson, 1. In the matter of states, Washington !follows Oregon’s 1736 with 95 as com 1 pared with 72 last year. California is next with 72, ay compared with 30 in 1920. Idaho has third place with 20 students attending the University. Last year tl^e Gem state scored up 25. Twenty seven states are represented. Nine foreign countries have sent students to the Oregon campus while only four were represented last year. Philippine islands have 12 students here; Hawaii, 3; Canada, 5; China, 3; India, 2; Japan, 1; Siberia, 1; France, 1; Greece, 1. Alaska is represented by one student. The increase standards of the Uni versity and the Oregon gospel which is being spread by alumni is thought to be one of th^ main reasons for the gain in enrollment. Jitney Dance, Pep ’n Jazz at Gym Saturday Nero played the fiddle while Borne burned. His actions would be re garded as poor amusement, as lack ing in pep and jazi, by Oregon stu dents, so Sigma Delta Chi has made It possible that the students of the University may dance while the Cougar Is being crushed tomorrow. The men’s gymnasium has been In gaged and a jitney a whirl will be charged to defray the expenses of the news reports on the game and the music, the reports to be read as re ceived. According to all predictions, the Cougars are to go sliding down to ward the oblivion of defeat to the strains of Harry Mayer’s orchestra. This band of syncopaters has the name of being much more musical than their music loving brother, Nero. There are many, at any rate, who would rather dance to th,eir music than to Nero’s. Special couriers will bring the returns of the Pullman contest to the gym, where they will be given out Immediately to the dancers. The noise which ensues after the reading of each report Is expected to rival in volume the clamor of the Bomans, whose homes furnished the light for Nero as he played. Dancing wll start at 2:30 and continue until either the Cougars or the dancers are cnuhed and trodden upon. It is slated to last until 6:30. Long dances with numerous encores are promised for the insignificant nickle per dance. M. M. McLean, Sophomore in Geology, Head of New Organization The Technical society of tho Univer sity of Oregon was organized Wednes day ovening at a meeting of students in tho various technical science courses of the University. M. M. McLean, a sophomore, majoring in geology, was elected president, and A. R. Loomis, a sophomore in physics, was made secre tary-treasurer. Dr. E. T. Hodge, instructor in the geology department, was the speaker of the evening addressing the ^meeting regarding the engineers profession. “The common conception of an en gineer,” said Dr. Hodge, “is that he is a creator. That is true. But the engineer is more than that; he is an inventor, and he must bo a man of action in order to convey his ideas. The creative work of the engineer is only the result of the mind that made the work possible.” Engineers Labor Savers Lajror-saving, said the speaker, is the purpose of the engineer profession; yet creating things that require a mini mum amount of labor will not, in time, eliminate the engineer. “The world is power short,” as serted Dr. Hodge, “and is calling to engineers. There is the problem of harnessing the power of waterfalls and rivers without encroaching upon their other assets. The harbors of our large Eastern shipping centers are, with the exception of large steamers that come and go, comparatively little advanced over what they were when early set tlers, ships first touched our shore. The development ot^ these cities und harbors, and ridding China of the an nual flooding of the Yangtse and Hoang-Ho rivers and consequential famine, is the stupendous problem of the future engineers.” Pestilence Fought In Tropics Dr. Hodge spoke briefly on tho creative work of the engineer in com bating pestilential diseases, citing the plague-infested Ameriean tropies as examples where engineering has re duced disease to only a shadow of its former rage. Touching upon what an engineer should know about business, the speak er said they must possess business ability in order to be successful. “The engineer,” said Dr. Hodge, “will have to create work for him self. He will have to explain in a con vincirijf manner to those who let out work that there is a better way ol doing the job whenever it is so.” Hot Too Much Specializing Tn closing Dr. Hodge urged the mem hers of the society not to lay too mucl stress on specialization. ARMAMENT RACE NOW ON, DECIAOES EDITOR OF JOURNAL B. F. Irvine Pleads Limitations, Use-of Public Opinion to Irtfluence Delegates CONFERENCE T6 BE NOV. 11 America to Take Stand, Not for Self, But for Peace and Glory of World Frank Irvine, editor of the Oregon Journal, at the assembly in Villard yesterday made an eloquent plea in be half of the limitation of armaments aud the use of public opinion to the fullest extent in influencing the dele gates at the coming disarmament con ference to meet in Washington, Novem ber 11. Mr. Irvine in speaking of the con ference emphasizod the horrors of the past war and the still greater horrors of a possible next war. “The failure of the conference to accomplish., its task is a disaster of which we must not allow ourselves to think for even a minute,’’ the speaker deolarod. “The world is bankrupt. Taxes are used not for education but for armament. We are in a race for armament now, just as we predicted. We know what the last war was; we know what the next war will be." Statesmen, said Mr. Irvine, would not do what is expected of them un less they are forced to do so by the | power of public opinion. We know what problem will face the conference; France has already declared her stand, for she refused to sign the Versailles treaty until Grofit Britain and the United States guaranteed her a pro tective treaty against a possible fu ture militarist Germany. Great Brit ain would have come to the conference with aims differing from those of the United States for Great Britain would havo demanded the freedom of the seas; the seas must be open or Great Britain would not be ablo to feed hdr immense population for more than two weeks, with lier own resources. “Over in Asiu, arises the question of Japan, a tiny island kingdom de manding room for its people to live. Japan at present is engaged in a peace ful conquest of Asia, whore she will be able to do much for people less en lightened than themselves. But America, thank God, will be there seeking nothing for herself, but only tho. peace and glory of the world, said Mr. Irvine. Two conferences fiave been called since 1895 to attempt the establishment of World peace, and both have contented themselves with discussing rulings by which the next war is to be conducted." “The next war will be a war to kill —to kill all of tho people, said the speaker. In Belgium in the early days of tho war, the chlorine gas was used, the mustard gas followed, and at the ; close of the war the terrible Lewisite ' gas was invented by an American. Mr. Irvine emphasized the fact that in the next war, which will certainly come if tho disarmament fails to achieve its goal, there will be no noncombatants; it will be a war affecting all; men, women and children. “Thank God,” said the speaker, ad dressing the students,” for you young people of the land, you young people of the universities, who are going to do your own thinking; for it is you who will lead tho country into green pas tures and beside still waters.” CHI OMEGA OFFERS PRIZE | - i Best All-Around Under-Graduate In Sociology Will Get $25 , Chi Omega, through Bean Young of the school of sociology, has announced a prize of $25 to be awarded at the ! close of the spring term. The winner will be the best all around, under graduate student major 1 ing in the sociology department. This is to cover both scholarship in the department, and campus activities as well. It will also mean ono who has j proven him or herself capable of leadership. . This award has been made before by Chi Omega on this campus, but not I in recent yearj. The awarding of a sociology prize has been one of the national policies of the fraternity, and its aim on every college campus, where a chapter is located, is to stimulate interest, and promote activity in the field of,social service.
