FOR AGGIE CONTEST
Same Line That Checked Rush
of Cougars Expected to
Battle 0. A. C.
REINHART MAY BE IN GAME
W. S. C. Men Praise Fight
Made at Pullman
With light workouts as the order
of the day for the earlier part of the
week, the first-string football men in
the practice last night swung into the
height of the steady grind that will
culminate Homecoming week-end when
the Lemon-LellQW swings into action
against the “Fighting Aggies”.
Monday and Tuesday evenings the
boys were given light workouts to
tone them down for the final condi
tioning drive of scrimmage and drill
before the game with the farmers. The
boys are in great condition, according
to ’ Bill Hayward, and came through
the battle with the Cougars practically
.free from injuries.
Practice Open Tonight
The bars on secret practice will be
Taised tonight for the first time in
weeks and at the big rally this after
noon the student body at large will be
given a chance to see their team in
action, the last opportunity before the
Aggie game. The predominating fea
ture of the practice tonight will be
scrimmage with lots of action.
Though there is nothing aennixe on
the subject as yet it is expected that
the same line that worked against the
Cougars will be used to stop the on
rush of the Aggies. In the backfield
it is likely that Billy Beinhart and
Tommy DeArmahd will be used, al
though they may not start. With Billy
Beinhart working behind the line
things will look brighter, for Beinhart
is one of the most experienced play
ers on the squad and is always sure
of a gain whenever he lugs the pig
skin.
Howard in Good Condition
Captain Howard came through the
Washington State fracas without ad
ditional injuries to the knee which has
given him so much trouble since the
draw with the Gem Staters in Port
land. Howard played a great game at
Pullman Saturday and should be in
shape to give a good account of himself
in his last tussel with the farmers.
Two great compliments were paid
to the Oregon team after the game in
Pullman. Gus Welch, the Cougar coach,
told Bill Hayward, “You’ve got the
fightenest team, this year, Bill, that
I’ve seen in years,” which means a
lot considering some of the teams that
Gus Welch has seen in action since
he left Carlisle. And then Mike Mo
ran, their smashing fullback, said to
Oregon’s veteran trainer: “Oregon has
the hardest-hitting set of backs that
I ever tried to stop.” Which means
something itself when one glances at
Washington State’s schedule and no
tices the teams they have tangled with
this season.
EVANS TO BE ACCOMPANIST
John Stark Evans, professor of piano
in the University school of music will
be the accompanist for J. Erwyn
Mutch, baritone who will appear in
concert at Villard hall on Saturday
evening as the second program in the
Woman's League concert series.
Honolulu Trip To
Be Honeymoon For
Coach Huntington
Announcement of the engagement
of Miss Hallie Hills, daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Hills, of Oab
ridge, Oregon, to Charles A. “Shy"
Huntington, Oregon football mentor,
was made last night. Miss Hills is
a popular and well-known girl in
this section of the country and acted
as forest fire lookout in the Cas
cade National Forest near Oak
Ridge for some time.
Shy Huntington needs no intro
duction to the campus. He has been
receiving the congratulations of his
many friends since the announce
ment was made last night. “Guess
you have it all,” were his words
last night.
It is understood that the wedding
will be an event before the Oregon
football team starts for the trip to
the Hawaiian Islands, December 10,
and that this will be the honeymoon'
trip of the bride and groom. No
definite date has been set as yet
Tor the ceremony.
WILL MEET AGGIES;
BYERS NEW CAPTAIN
Prospects Brighter; Barnes,
Miller and Dyment Will
Help With Coaching
The names of the soccer men who
will make the trip to O. A. 0. will
be posted in the gym this afternoon.
The team will leave irom tne gym ior
Corvallis at 7:00 Friday morning.
The Oregon soccer team meets the
O. A. C. representatives of the Scotch
game on the Aggie turf tomorrow
morning. This was the dope given out
from the office of the graduate man
ager yesterday afternoon after learn
ing that the budget committee had pro
vided funds for the trip to Corvallis.
“Monte” Byers, member of the Pen
ninsula soccer team of Portland which
won the league championship in 1920,
former Franklin star, and a member of
the varsity squad last year, was elected
captain of the University soccer team
Tuesday evening. The election took
place after Morgan Staton, last year’s
captain-elect, expressed a desire that
the team should be captained by one
of the men who can be on the field each
evening. Staton is busied with Emer
ald advertising this year.
Prospects for a combination of
players capable of handling the ro
tund pigskin skillfully to meet some
outside team have taken a decided turn
for the better during the past week.
Also, Professor Gerald Barnes, of the
athletic faculty, brings out his gym
class proteges and works out the var
sity men. Dean Dyment expects to get
out and teach the boys a few of the
finer points of the game before the
contest here Homecoming. Justin Mil
ler, of the law department, former
Stanford player, will probably also as
sist Coach Barnes.
With very little coaching, practically
no organization, and many new men,
the squad which faces O. A. C. to
morrow stands little chance of making
a good showing against the trained
Aggie team. Lynn Koycroft, one of
the backs who possesses a mighty toe,
is out of the game with an injured foot.
It is likely that Jimmie King, Byers,
Cliff Vester, Brogan, and Lau will

Fred Lockley Tells How He Gets
Story From Almost Any Source
A British general or an office boy,
a famous scientist or an old negro
mammy, it doesn’t make any difference
to Fred Lockley, special writer for the
Oregon Journal, for he says that there
are interesting stories everywhere, hlr.
Lockley related several experiences in
a talk to journalism students yester
day morning and at a luncheon given
in "his honor at noon by Sigma Delta
Chi.
Letters from Journal readers indi
cate that more people read Mr. Lock
ley’s column, “Impressions of the Jour
nal Man,” than almost any other fea
ture of the paper. His material is
gathered by going out among all classes
of people all over the state.
Mr. Lockley, wishing to demonstrate
his theory that everyone has a story,
glanced around the Journal office and
spied a new office boy. He called the
boy to him.
“Sit down,” he requested and pulled
“I want to interview
up a chair,
you.”
“But I have never been inter
viewed,” protested the lad. But he
was interviewed that time.
“What is the most interesting thing
that you have ever done in your life!”
was the next question.
“Why, I went to London with the
boy scouts during the war. I was
the second youngest of those who
went.”
“Tell me about it,” said Mr. Lockley.
“Well,when we were in Brussels one
day they had a parade. King Albert
saw me and asked, ‘Are you the
smallest boy in this whole parade! The
king was about that high (pointing
up) and I was about that high (point
ing down). ‘No,’ I replied, ’there’s
|one smaller.’ He was a friendly sort
. of a man and spoke pretty good English
for a foreigner.”

Soliciting of Funds Is To
Be Supervised by
Committee
SIGNS TO BE REGULATED
Class Cutting on Wednesday
Before Thanksgiving
Frowned on
Solicitation for funds for various
welfare and commercial enterprises will
hereafter be discussed by a representa
tive committee and recommendation
made to the Student Council for the
refusal or sanction of that body, as a
result of action taken by the council
at their meeting last night. The dis
cussion in the meeting brought out the
fact that the soliciting of funds with
out the approval of the Student Coun
cil has been going on for some time
on the campus.
President Bartholomew of the A. 8.
U. O. declared that the Council had the
power to stop any solicitation and
punish the offenders, if such a cam
paign was being carried on without
the official sanction of the governing
body. The action of the Council means
that all campaigns for raising funds
for Y. M. C. A., Y. W. C. A., Student
Relief and other welfare organizations
must first come before the Student
Council and will then be referred' to
the committee which President Bar
tholomew will appoint shortly. This
committee will decide upon the meritB
of the campaign or “drive” and will
then recommend either the approval or
disapproval by the Student Council of
the proposed plan, and if approved,
limit the amount to be raised.
uampus sales Also inciuaea
The matter of the conducting of sales
on the campus was also taken up by
the Council and hereafter all sales
must be first sanctioned by the Stu
dent Council. Not only does this apply
to sales conducted on the campus but
to the sales of any edibles or novelties
at Student body functions. The ap
pointment of a committee for hear
ing the applications of individuals or
organizations for the conducting of
sales will be made by President Bar
tholomew at once.
The campus committee reported that
various improvements were being made
about the campus. The matter of sign
boards was taken up and the campus
committee instructed to remove all sign
boards from the campus at once, with
the idea of placing uniform boards for
bulletins at the various entrances.
The Council voted to give the cam
pus committee full power to authorize
or stop the practice of placing bul
letin boards or signs about the campus.
James Say, Jason McCune and Mildred
Ferguson are the members of this
committee.
To Ask For Special Trains at Four
The Council voted to confer with
the railroad authorities on the matter
of running special trains for Thanks
giving vacation. An attempt will be
made to have the railroads run their
i special trains out of Eugene at 4
o’clock or after rather than at 2. It
was thought this would eliminate all
possibilities of students cutting Wed
nesday afternoon classes before the
holiday period began.
A committee composed of Floyd Max
well and Marian Lynn, was appointed
by President Bartholomew to draw up
• a resolution to the students, that a full
attendance be present at he Wednesday
| classes before Thanksgiving and at the
! Monday classes following the vacation
period. The resolution will also call
j the attention of the students to the
need for better attendance at all
j classes.
Prompt Dismissal of Classes Asked
The matter of the violation of the
ruling of holding classes over the hour
when they should be dismissed was
brought before the attention of the
Council and a request will be sent to
the faculty for a closer observance of
the rule. It was declared by members
of the Council that there were numer
ous complaints from students that
members of the faculty were holding
| them in class until they were late
to the next class.
Norton Winnard, chairman of the
Homecoming committee reported grati
I fying progress in that body.
DEAN SHELDON IN PORTLAND
Dr. H. D. Sheldon, dean of educa
tion, who is in Portland to conduct
regular extension division classes will
address the Washington county teach
ers’ institute at Hillsboro before re
turning to the campus.
VOCAL BARRAGE SCHEDULED
Yell Practice Today on Hayward
*********
STUNT REHEARSAL PLANNED
Target practice for the Thundering
Thousand will be held on Hayward
field at 4:30 this afternoon. The range
for the vocal barrage is set at 11-19
21. Every man in the University is
expected to get behind the big guns
as “Obie” directs the fire on a triple
target—unison, effectiveness, and vol
ume. The yell staff realizes that in
only one way can the varsity sup
porters make themselves heard above
the discordance generated by the 3500
rooting Aggies, and that is by team
work.
But primarily the yell kings wish
it understood that the practice this
evening is not the ordinary yellfest.
The stunt for the game will receive its
initial staging today. Five hundred
men will take part in this stunt and it
is necessary that the Thundering Thous
and should be trained to insure effec
tiveness.
The surprise booked for this after
noon is arousing considerable comment
around the campus, but “Obie” re
fuses to give out any information other
than that this bleacher rally attraction
will probably receive a little space in
state press reports in tomorrow’s pa
pers. Fro-tra-co will handle this sur
prise feature.
Also, the rejuvenated, renovated
football team—the scrapping warriors
who gnawed the dope sheet into tiny
fragments and scattered the pieces in
] the Pullman winds last Saturday—will
appear in scrimmage action. It is prob
able that this will bo the only open
1 practice held before the big game on
November 19.
“Ohio” advises the men students to
dig into their war bags and break out
the rooter’s headgear. These caps will
not be necessary at the stunt practice
today, but every student wishing to
use his sudent body ticket to see the
classic contest between the two state
institutions at Homecoming must wear
rooter’s caps. Graduate Manager Bene
fiel states that the cap will be used
as a check on the student body ticket.
CONCERT PROGRAM VARIED
JOHN B. SIEFERT AND MISS
TESCHNEB SOLOISTS
One of Indian Dances to be Flayed
by Orchestra Embodies Airs
of Rogue Biver Tribe
—
The program for the second annual
Armistice eve concert-dance, sponsored
by the University orchestra this even
ing at the Woman’s building, promises
a varied selection of musical treats,
among which are two Indian dances by
the orchestra, three tenor solos by Mr.
John B. Siefert, and a cello solo by
Miss Lora Teschner.
illC XUOI/ I'TU 1UU1UU
i/iiutuo
Skilton gets its melodies from the
Rogue river Indians of Oregon. The
“Deer Dance” is part of the annual
memorial service of the Rogue river
Indians, and its movements represent
the ceremony of the redskins for their
departed braves. The opening melody
represents the voice of the chief singer
which is taken up by the assemblage,
and the last part of the selection de
picts the dance which is supposed to
represent the deer hunting operations
of the departed. The War Dance is
a Cheyenne melody. The native melo
dies used in these numbers were given
to the composer by Mr. R. R. DePoe,
chief of the Rogue River tribe.
Composer Died In War
One of Mr. Siefert’s solos, “There
Is No Death,” by O’Hara, is pecul
iarly appropriate to an Armistice eve
program as Mr. O’Hara, the composer,
gave his life to his country in service
during the World War. Prof. Leland
A. Coon will act as accompanist for Mr.
Siefert’s work.
A cello solo by Lora Teschner,
promises to be a piece of finished
musical art as Miss Teschner has just
returned from a year’s travel as cello
soloist with the Thierlow Leurance
Little Symphony Orchestra which filled
engagements through the west, middle
west, and Canada. The solo will have
orchestral accompaniment.
| The five dance numbers played by
i the full orchestra will follow immedi
ately after the concert program. The
'success of one of the waltzes, “Moon
light Hours,” will be witnessed by its

POLES FOR FIRE PLACED
Freshmen Start Piling Wood for
Homecoming Bonfire
The frosh bonfire, last night passed
the first stage of its construction. Four
corner poles and the center pole, 85
feet high, were placed and firmly
tamped into the ground. Trenches
were dug from two sides and tunnels
of wooden boxes were laid from the
I other two to the center pole for the
draught system. A pipe composed of
empty barrels will go clear thru the
bonfire from the base to the top. It
will be joined at the base with the
; draught tunnels.
The Eugene Telephone company sent
: its men with a service car and derrick
1 to assist the freshmen in putting up
I the poles.
| One hundred gallons of oil will be
i used on the fire. Empty banana crates,
I decrepant two-by-fours, old boxes and
other inflammable material is being
: gathered by chairman of the transpor
tation committee, J. Nelson, and a
corps of freshmen. Joe Parks is look
, ing out for material and Russ Barton
is handling the construction.
Men are guarding the bonfire eacl

ASSEMBLY SPEAKER CONSIDERED
LEADING CHURCHMAN
Time on Campus Filled With Lunch
eons, Addresses and Conferences
With Individual Students
“Dr. Bowman is a man of real
brilliance, scholarly, intellectual and
well read,” said Karl W. Onthank, sec
retary to the president, who highly
commended Dr. Harold Leonard Bow
man, pastor of the First Presbyterian
church of Portland, who will delivor
the assembly address this morning.
“Dr. Bowman succeeded a most popular
man when he took the Portland church,
and his task was not an easy one,”
continued Mr. Onthank, “He succeeded
admirably, however, and has made a
truly nno impression upon the churehes
of the state.”
Dr. Bowman has chosen his sub
ject, “Inwart] Earnestness,” from the
book, the “Glass of Fashion,” by “the
Gentleman with the Duster.”
Arriving on the campus yesterday
noon, Dr. Bowman was entertained at
the Bruce J. Giffen home, with a
luncheon, to meet a group of Presby
terian students. He was a dinner guest
at the Kappa Theta Chi house, and in
the evening was the honor guest at an
informal reception to meet, the mem
bers of the faculty, which was given
by Dean Elizabeth Fox at her apart
ments in the Woman’s building.
Dr. Bowman will talk before the
campus Y. W. C. A. this afternoon at
5 o’clock, and will speak this evening
at the First Presbyterian church.
OREGON MAY SEND TWO
MEN TO TENNIS MEET
Other Het Plans for Tear Now Being
Worked Out; Professor Lance
field May Coach
Tennis players and all those who
aspire to be wielders of the racquet are
making use of every bit of good
weather with the hopes of winning gar
lands for Oregon in that Bport this
year.
The place of this year’s tennis meet
has not been decided upon, but Kenneth
Smith, captain of the Oregon team, has
inside dope to the effect that the
Pacific Coast Conference meet will be
held at the University of California.
The tennis budget is now being pre
pared and if plans now on foot are al
lowed to stand, Oregon will be repre
sented by a two-man team.
Negotiations are now being made to
secure the services of D. E. Lancefield,

ELLA RAWLINGS WIRES
Woman’s League Head Says Confer
ence at Berkeley is Great
In a telegram received by Dean Fox
i Ella Rawlings, president of Woman’s
League, now attending Woman's Leagm
Conference at the University of Cali
i fornia, Berkeley, says:
“The magnitude of such a conference
cannot be appreciated by other than
those present. Topics of general cam
. pus interest have been discussed. Sub
i ject today is honor systems in studenl
I government. Hoping I can bring bad
the enthusiasm of the conference.”
HOMECOMING LUNCH
ILL BE SERVED IN
WOMAN’S BUILDING
More Than 3000 Students and
Alumni are Expected to
Partake of Meal
NEW SYSTEM TO BE USED
Entrances and Exits Will be
Arranged to Prevent
Undue Confusion
More than 3000 students and alumni
are expected to be in line this year
when mess call blows for the annual
Homecoming luncheon, according to
the luncheon committee, who are now
practically ready for the “big on
slaught.” The luncheon will be held
in the Woman’s building and serving
will begin promptly at 11:30 Saturday
morning.
Heretofore the luncheon has been
held in the men’s gym, and besides
eating, a favorite sport of the parti
cipants has been to plaster the walls,
ceilings, and floors with beans and
coffee and other articles on the menu.
The committee after much exhoration
and pleading finally received permis
sion from those in authority to use the
Woman's building. Promises were
made, though, that the Woman’s
building would not be marred or de
faced in any way. Students and alum
ni are expected to eat, drink and be
merry, but still remain within the
bounds of propriety. A corps of 50
student deputies will act as policemen
and will enforce order.
New Way of Serving Planned
The method of serving has also been
changed. Throe serving tables will be
placed on both sides and at one end of
the room. The ice cream booth will be
at the other ond. There will be two
main entrances to be used tor entrance
only. Ushers will direct the students
and alumni to one of the tables where
they will receive their plate already
filled with eats. Chairs will be pro
vided on the main floor, the sun parlor,
and the balcony. Two exits will be
provided, and so confusion will not
enter on the program.
A luncheon, dainty and petite enough
for the smallest eater, and yet large
enough to fill tho dinner basket of
the hungriest of the hungry will be
prepared. The University band will
play during the luncheon. The menu
will consist of moat loaf, potato salad,
sandwiches, hot rolls, pickles, coffee
cake and ice cream. The men’s and wo
men ’s organizations are co-operating
with tho committee to the extent of
furnishing the bulk of tho food, and
non-organization students are contribt
ing 75 cents to defray miscellaneous
expenses. It is hoped that the lunch
eon will completely pay for itself and
so reliove the financial burden of A.
8. U. O. treasury.
Hobnails Barred
The committee wishes to emphasize
that old clothes may be worn, only
hobnails being taboo. The names of
tho luncheon committee follow. El'a
Rawlings, chairman; Maurine Elroi,
Margaret Mathieson, Wilbur Hoyt,
Harold Dedman, Don Zimmerman, Eve
Beckman, Echo Baldaree, Ransom Mc
Arthur, Raymond Boyer, and Fred
