given. The other nights some form of
amusement is to be followed by dancing.

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

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

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

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

The University has as yet taken no
steps to establish work in human anat

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.
