S.) —“College Nights” given every Sat urday evening by the University of California has served as a means of entertainment for over twenty-five hundred students. The object of these weekly entertainments is to offer the campus a means of good amusement at a low cost and to foster a feeling of good fellowship throughout the Uni versity’s large student body. Every other week a campus play is to be given. The other nights some form of amusement is to be followed by dancing. The first play of the semester will be given Saturday night.

JUNIOR WEEK-END PLAN OPPOSED BY HOUSE PRESIDENTS Opinion Favors Limitation of Guests; Some Change in Program Desired PREPPERS TO BE SELECTED Second Meeting to be Held; Organizations Will Discuss Matter Opinion that the number of Junior week-end guests should be limited and that some changes should be made in the old plan, was expressed in a meeting of the executive committee of the Greater Oregon committe and the heads of the living organizations. An almost unanimous disapproval of the proposed new plan for the conduct of the spring event was apparent. The meeting was called to try to solve the Junior week end problem. Paul Patterson a member of the Greater Oregon committee, offered the plan drawn up by Jeannette Calkins, Raymond Lawrence, Roy Yeatch and him self. Guests for the week-end, said Pat terson, should be chosen according to their scholastic records, athletic ability, and personality, and should be chosen by the Oregon Alumni on the faculty of the high school or by the faculty itself. Since only 300 of the 3000 high school seniors can be accommodated, each high school should have a proportionate num ber of representatives. Patterson also recommended that the week-end be short ened to include only Friday, Saturday, and part of Sunday. Canoe Fete Opposed The canoe fete, he stated, should be abolished, since it has grown to be a competive affair and therefore very ex pensive. In its place it was suggested that the University as a whole put on something similar. Campus luncheon, according to Carl Onthank, could be better handled as an all-University affair. Competitive rushing, according to Roy Yeatch, a member of the committee, has been one of the outstanding evils in the past, and the new plan was designed to overcome this. Maurice Eben sub mitted a plan whereby the guests would be entirely eliminated, but that Junior week-end be held the same as in the past. Dean Fox spoke in favor of the plan as submitted, but proposed that the living organizations be allowed to use any ad ditional room for invitational guests Would Show True University.SUB In the discussion that followed the submitting of the plan the chief ob jection voiced was that members of org anizations would not feel inclined to de vote their time to entertaining guests that they were not acquainted with, and that none of the usual routine, such as escorting the preppers to games, shows, and various social functions, would be eliminated. The plan most generally accepted was that Junior week-end be carried on as social functions, the high school stu dents be given a chance to observe the work of the University students, and that (Continued on page three) Music Sent by Radio Heard First Time on Oregon Campas Strains of jazz and southern melody floated through the journalism “shack’' last night. The Emerald staff was not giving a dance, for dances are taboo just now. There was not a musical instrument in the house. Explanation: Members of the Uni versity wireless club, who are establish ing a coast wireless news service for the Emerald, were listening in on raido con certs being given in California. Emerald staff members and journilism faculty men who happened to be around were invited to listen, and they enjoyed their first long-distance concert, even though the airs were ‘ ‘ Alabama Moon, ’ ’ and “Oh, by Jingo,” for the piano and orchestra strains had traveled all the way from Los Angeles and Stockton, r Cal. “That music is eoming all the way with lees expenditure of power than that light usee. ’ ’ said Garrett Lewis, who was ! operating, pointing to an ordinary in ! candescent lamp in the room. Regular evening concerts between the t hours of seven and nine are being put | on by electrical supply houses in the j south in an effort to increase the sale ! of their apparatus. The wave length of the local instru ment is adjusted so that a conversation was heard the other night in detail ■ between a lonesome deskbound man in Los Angeles, and his lady-love at Ava lon on the Catalina Island. Her an- j swer was “ves-” The sending apparatus has not yet | been installed, but when this is done, members of the wireless club said last night, they will be able to send, up to 1500 miles, as well as receive. Every night some one or two of the dozen members of the wireless club here sit up until midnight or later picking up messages from all over the world. Even (Cmtinned m pegs few) RED CROSS LIFE SAVING CERTIFICATES OFFERED Passing of Hard Test Will Bring Credentials; Instruction Given by Barnes Opportunity to win a Red Cross life saving certificate is presented by the department of physical education in the course being given by Gerald Barnes. Methods of breaking away from a drowning person, carrying, and resusi tation are included in the course. Tests will be given at the conclusion of the course; those passing the tests being awarded certificates. Mr. Barnes states that anyone that wishes to may take the course, but only those that pass a strict test will be granted the certificates. The judges of the tests will be Eddie Durno, and Gerald Barnes, both of whom are li censed Red Cross examiners of Life savers. The tests, says the instructor, will be very hard to pass as they are to be given in the tank, and the instruc tors intend to hang on very tight, so that to pass the tests a person will have to be able to break any hold that drowning men might happen to grasp him with. The classes are to be given three times a week, Tuesdays 11 to 12, and 4 to 5, and Thursdays from 4 to 5- So far very few men have turned out, but as this is a very important course and one that every person should have Mr. Barnes expects a larger turnout in the future. GOLD EPIDEMIC IN CHECK RULES FOR FIGHTING GRIPPE GIVEN BY INFIRMARY Students Asked not to Attend Shows and Town Dances; Classroom Ventilation Watched Isolate all colds immediately. Ap point some one person to care for the sick, and keep others away. Attend no classes until you have visited the infirmary. All cuts will be excused if you are under the care of the health service. Guard against coughing and sneez ing. (ret plenty of fresh air, and drink plenty of water, and above all, re port at the infirmary at once when you feel a cold coming on. The prevailing la grippe epidemic is well in check, according to a state ment issued last night at the Univer sity health service. Fewer cases were reported yesterday than for several days, although precautions are still necessary, it was stated. Following the bulletin prohibiting student body dances until the epidemic of grip subsides, a request was issued that classrooms are kept properly venti lated, and heated. Dr. John F. Bo vard, director of the Univerity health service, states that no serious cases of la grippe have been reported, but that every preventative precaution should be taken. All house dances scheduled for this week-end have been postponed, as has the glee club dance Saturday night. The Health board also requests the students not to attend down town dances or shows till the epidemic has abated. It is also urged that students report to the infirmary all colds as soon as possible, in order that they may be checked. “Please urge upon each stu dent the advisability of calling at the University Health Service to receive medical treatment for that 'bad cold’-” said Dean Bovard in the bulletin is sued yesterday. HONOR SOCIETY INSTALS Women Medical Students Organize Into National Fraternity A chapter of Alpha Iota, national women's medical fraternity, was in stalled in Portland last week-end in view of the fact that there are now a ! number of women students in the Uni j versity of Oregon Medical School. 1 Eight women medical students were initiated and later organized into a i chapter. The initiation and installa ! tion was done by Dr. Bertha Stewart, of | the health department, who was prob- I ably, prior to the installation Saturday, J the only member of the fraternity in the state. Dr. Stewart is from the chapter at the University of Michigan The new members of the fraternity are as follows: Dr. Jessie Farrior (gradu ate), Grace Young, Mildred McBride and Zilpha Galloway, seniors; Rita Hough, junior; Ruth Watkins, Lerna Wilkes and Wilmath Osborne, sopho mores. LAB FEES NOW DUE Monday, January. 30, is the last ; day for the payment for laboratory fees, according to the announcement of the business office yesterday If the fees are not paid by that time ' a late payment fee of $1 will be col lected. After Wednesday students are automatically dropped from the University and must petition for re admittance. First Meet of Kind to be Held Here on Saturday, February 28 VARSITY TURNOUTS POOR More Interest Essential if Hay ward is to Take Team to Penn Relay Interclass relays are the latest thing in track sports to be tried at Oregan. Beginning on Saturday, February 18, every class will have a chance to show its athletes to the best advantage in every track contest listed in the con ference meets. From this date hence forward these meets will be held every Saturday on Hayward field until April 22, the date of the Northwest relay carnival to be held in Seattle. The final class tryouts to determine who shall represent the various classes will be held February 11. According to Coach Bill Hayward this method is to be used as a means to get the teams in condition and finally working to ward the first contest of the season in Seattle. Work Now Counts Most Hayward says that the strength of the varsity depends on the work done now and not in the Spring, and it de pends upon the students whether or not these interclass meets are to be a success in themselves and accomplish the desired reults. He wants the men to get behind the proposition and scq that it succeed?. As to Oregon’s chances in the con ference meets Bill says that he has only two or three men who can really do things, and it is essential to the suc cess of Lemon-Yellow track aspira tions that more men turn out for this sport. Especially is this lack of inter est manifest among the ranks of the freshmen class. The cutting out of interscholastic meets has been dis astrous and widespread in its effects. To this the coaches lay the blame pri marily, because there was no incentive to train in high school and the majority of the men have never participated in a meet. More irosh spirit Needed Asaistent coach “Hank” Poster is extremely anxious to see more spirit shown by the class of 1925. Hank says that many of the big track stars of today are men who never saw a track before coming to college, and most men can do something well if they turn out and keep coming out until they have a chance to develop. Meets are being arranged for the first year men by Graduate Manager .lack Benefiel with O. A- G\, Chemawa, Washington, and Willamette, but ac cording to the coache’s viewpoint more men will have to start turning out right away if any honors are to be won. Wants to Send Team East Hayward is very desirous of sending a team to the Penn Relays to take place April 27, 28 and 29. This year marks the twenty-eighth annual meet 1 held at the University of Pennsylvania. Schools and colleges from all over the | United States are represented at these gatherings, and even teams from across the water participate. This year, it is reported, a team is coming from Italy. Hill says that it will be a great advertisement for the University, along with other obvious advantages. Until training reveals more prospects to go from here there are only two that stand a chance. These men are Grilley and Spearow, last year’s frosh stars, according to the coach, and he would not go with fewer than four. The number taken depends upon the number of first-rate men developed. BODY WILLED TO SCHOOL Joseph Lewis Aids Medical Students To Study Cancer News of the willing of the body of Joseph Springer Lewis of Portland to ! the University of Oregon Medical Behool draws attention anew to the re qucRt the department of medicine haH made that anatomy be established as a campus course. The department be lieves also that dissection would be of advantage in later work in medicine. The University has as yet taken no steps to establish work in human anat omy. Mr. Lewis died recently of cancer and before his death he made the request that his body be gent to the medical college in order that students might , benefit by the study of the disease that caused his death. WEATHEE FORECAST Rain; colder; moderate northwesterly winds.

CHAMBER WILL CELEBRATE Banquet to be Feature of Large Affair; Department After Noted Speaker The University Chamber of Com merce is planning a celebration for the near future that they confidently state will surpass anything of that nature that has been held on the campus for some time. The banquet that is to feature the celebration is expected to be the largest affair of its kind ever put on at the Oregon campus, and a dance exclusively for Commerce stu dents will follow. A noted speaker is to be imported for the occasion. GLEE M TICKET SALE PROMISES BIG AUDIENCE TONIGHT Program Ranges From Grand Opera Features to Light Comedy Readings SEVERAL NUMBERS ADDED Dance Called Off; Cut in Price Attracting Students to Purchase Seats With hundreds of tickets already sold and scores of others being purchased every hour, present indications are that more than a thousand Oregon stu dents and Eugene people will hear the University men’s glee club at 8:15 in the Woman’s building. This will be the largest crowd to attend the home concert in the history of the Univer sity, according to those in charge. Starting with the famous “Oregon Pledge” the program will include every thing from Grand opera to light com edy readings. Those who saw the fi nal practice in the Woman’s building Inst night say that “The Grass Hoppor” is going to bo one of the cleverest stunts scon hero in years. Much Practice Done The men havo been spending several hours each week since early in the Fall term and the result of their ef forts will be seen tonight. Oregon spirit will predominate, according to tho director, Bocanse of the healtti sorvice ban on dancing, soveral numbers have been added to the program to take tho place of the complementary dance which was to have been given. Howevor, as all social events have boon called off for the Week-end the concert is the only attraction left and has an open field in drawing the usual weok-end crowd of pleasure-seekers. Ticket Bush Expected “Wo expect a rush to obtain tickets today and it is probable that all the seats will bo sold before the doors open tonight,” said Art Rudd, the manager, yesterday. The fact that the usual price of $1 has boen cut to 75 cents is attracting a great many students who might not have bought otherwise, duo to a general slimness of tho stu dent pocketbook- Kuykendall’s Drug Store and tho Co-op have about the same number of tickets left, according to those in charge. me urogram Part I (a) Oregon Pledge .Evans (b) Lovo Symphony .Damrosch Glee Club Landsighting (Incidental nolo—Glen Morrow) .Grieg Glee Club Solo—Clio Gelida Manina—from “la Boheme” .Puccini Arthur Johnson, tenor (a) Tier Rose (Incidental solo—Glen Morrow) .Coombs (b) Tnvictus .
