Makeup Is Changed
McKEOWN AMD KIRK GOING
Frosh-Rook Bouts to Be Put
on Ahead of Varsity
Events Today
The Oregon wrestlers who meet the
Aggies at Corvallis this afternoon at
3 o ’clock in the return match with that
institution are hoping to better their
record made here last week, when only
one Oregon grappler won his event,
while five went down to defeat.
With the Varsity team will go a
team of five freshmen who will com
bat the rooks as a preliminary to the
main events.
The Varsity men who are making the
trip are McKeown, heavyweight; Win
nard, light heavyweight; Nvgren, mid
dleweight; Kir t ley, welterweight;
Whitcomb, lightweight, and Kir k,
featherweight. The frosh squad is
composed of Zachery or French, light
heavyweight; Lumberg, middleweight;
Bergswik or Clifford Vester, welter
weight; Robertson, lightweight, and
Sumption, featherweight.
Two Changes in Squad
There are two new men on the Var
sity squad, McKeown, the heavywegiht,
and Kirk, featherweight. Bradwav,
who wrestled in the heavyweight class
in the match over here, has been trou
bled with a bad ear all season, and
after the match last week he definitely
decided to quit for the rest of the sea
son. McKeown will no doubt have a
better chance against the 200-pound
Aggie than did Bradway, as in the
match over here the O. A. C. man ap
peared to be nearly twice Bradway’s
size. McKeown is a large man, his
chief trouble being that he is slow on
his feet, but even at that he should
put up a hard battle with the farmer,
as it took the big boy nearly seven
minutes to toss Bradwav in the first
meet.
Kirk to Have Chance
Wegner won his letter in the match
over here, and Kirk will have a chance
to get his on this account, for he is
practically as good as Wegner, and
should throw his opponent if Wegner
could.
The frosh-rook match is being staged
for the mutual benefit of the two
schools, the idea being that this will
stir up more interest among the stu
dents in the sport, and will help de
velop men for next year’s Varsity
squad.
Wrestling, according to Coach
Barnes, does not get the interest among
either the athletes or the spectators
that it should. In the eastern colleges,
he said, it is rated with football or
rowing, as a major sport, but on the
Pacific coast the colleges don’t seem
to have picked it up very rapidly, as
none of them rate it as a major sport,
and very little interest is taken, espe
cially among the colleges of Oregon
and Washington.
Barnes Sees More Interest
Coach Barnes said that he thought
this condition of affairs would not last
very long though, as this year quite a
bit of interest was taken in the matches.
All the colleges on the coast are sched
uling more and more matches- each
year, in an attempt to remedy this con
dition, he said, and the men at Oregon
will have to come out for the sport
unless they want Oregon to fall behind

GRIP EPIDEMIC QUELLED,
SAYS HEALTH SERVICE
Very Few New Colds Reported: Nurse
Has Only Three or Four Calls
Daily at Present
The grip epidemic is practically over,
according to the University health ser
vice, though isolation of any cases that
may appear, and prompt reporting of
all colds is still strongly advised. Only
a few cases remain on the campus, and
Miss Robertson. University health
nurse, is called out but three or four
times a day.
Very few new colds are reported by
the dispensary, and the old ones are
rapidly disappearing, according to
those in charge. The nose and throat
spray is still used about 100 times a
day, but mostly on colds of several days
standing, and a few hangovers from
the flu.
The state department of health is
cooperating with local boards in con
trolling any epidemic that might recur,
and in the event that the flu should
again spread, strict quarantine methods
will be adopted.
The ban on social events is entirely
off, according to the health service,
and there will be no necessity of en
forcing it again if proper care is exer
cised by the students.
ALUMNI TO MEET SINGERS
MEN’S GLEE TO BE HEARD AT
HEILIG WEDNESDAY NIGHT
New Numbers to Be Added to Program;
Sale of tickets Expected to be
Best in Years
Portland alumni are planning to give
the University men’s glee club a big
ovation when they appear at the Ilcilig
theatre next Wednesday night, accord
ing to word received yesterday. Indi
cations are that the ticket sale, which
opens Monday, will be the heaviest in
years, according to James Sheehv. who
is assisting the manager by his efforts
in Portland in'making the concert a
success.
Maurice Eben, president of the club,
asked Portland students in the assem
bly, Thursday, to notify their parents
that the concert was coming. Window
cards have been used profusely, as have
street-car cards, and personal work is
being done. Announcements have also
been made through alumni luncheons of
University organizations, in the news
papers and by means of post cards,
printed in Oregon colors and sent to
all grads and ex-students who now
live in the metropolis.
The director, John Stark Evans, an
nounces that several numbers have
been added to the program and that
the club as a whole is in fine shape.
Practices are being held every night in
order to make the Portland appearance
an artistic success.
Present plans are that the men of
the club will leave Wednesday morning
and will sing at noon at the University
club luncheon. In the afternoon an
appearace will be made at one of the
high schools and a rehearsal held, after
which the men will rest up before
going on the stage. “Oh yes, they
have to ‘train’ just as if they were go
ing into an athletic contest,” said the
director when questioned on this point.
FROSH GLEE IS COLORFUL
Students Dance in Japanese Garden to
Pleasing Music
A softlv-lighted Japanese garden
with tinkling glass pendants and color
ful lanterns was the scene of the
Preshinan Glee last night at the ar
mory. A pagoda lighted by a large
lantern was in the centre, for the mu
sicians, and from the pagoda to each
corner was strung a row of tiny lan
terns and glass pendants. Japanese
lanterns were under the balcony also,
and above all the lights were streamers
of blue, canary yellow, and green. Lat
tice work and screens were in front of
the stage, and a big 1925 sign.
The programs were distinctive, and
the first extra was the first dance.
The music was excellent.
Senior Women Meet and Plot;
Plan Campaign for Big Week
By SENIOR SLEUTH
Erom the four corners of the cam
pus, like leaves in a giddy gale, came
senior women yesterday afternoon to
the Bungalow. The welfare of the
downtrodden in the far east was not
their inspiration, neither was the moral
code of the campus mill race fans, nor
the riot act for the freshmen. Plots
and counterplots—but in the meantime
—interruption.
And 6f all unsuspected interruptions,
great silence fell upon the conclave.
Then amid a hilarious uproar entered
two unfamiliar figures. Their mien
was unpretentious, their dress conven
tional. Their voices were, might one
sav, hoarse but not raucous. After 10
minutes of hilarious and uareined con
fusion on the part of the senior worn !
en, the mysterious guests took leave.
The secret of their comic attraction
must always remain unsolved.
There are those who in the full con
sciousness of their wisdom venture con
jectures. There are those who go so
far as to name the picturesque intrud
ers. By such steps, what gained? Suf
ficient to say: Bill Collins and Leith
Abbott have seen their day.
But for the business: Methods of
acquiring dates, vogues of entertain
ment, mob psychology, were but a few
of the matters of preoccupation. A
plan for Monday nights which steps
boldly upon the right of house meet
ings was inaugurated. For Tuesday
afternoon tentative plans for a coffee
social were drawn up. Rumor places
Poihe Leslie at the urns and Alex
Rrown at the door to receive cards for
the occasion.
PROPOSED COEO’S
CODE MEETS WITH
FAVOR OF WOMEN
Several Active in College Af
fairs Think Plan Will Be
Very Helpfufl
LEAGUE HEAD LIKES IDEA
Believes Self-made Laws Will
Appeal to Girls More
Than Set Rules
The idea of a “co-ed code,” which
would be a definite expression of the
code of actions in which University
women believe, as suggested by Mrs.
George T. Gerlinger, regent of the Uni
versity, at a meeting of the Woman’s
League, is meeting considerable sup
port among Oregon women.
Correct decisions in matters that
"arise in college life and the need of
training to guide one in taking the
“right cross-ioad” would be simplified
a great deal by such a code, Mrs. Ger
linger believes.
Up to the present time no action has
been taken by the Woman’s League,
upon Mrs. Gerlinger's suggestion, but
several University women prominent in
campus affairs have given favorable
opinions upon the idea.
Idea Sure to Appeal
Ella Rawlings, president of Woman’s
League: “I believe that a co-ed code
as suggested by Mrs. Gerlinger, would
be a mighty fine thing. University
women will tend to live up to a code
rather than rules, I’m sure. Laws that
we make ourselves can’t help but ap
peal more than those laid down to us.
However, the idea of no rules at all
would be absurd. Contrary to expressed
masculine opinion on the campus, the
University women realize perfectly
that regulations on the campus are
necessary.”
Helen Carson, secretary of A. S. U.
O.: “A code typical of the University
of Oregon would be a fine thing for the
University. I don’t see how it could
fail to be helpful to the women on the
campus. I, for one, am heartily in
favor of a definite code, such as Mrs.
Gerlinger suggested.”
Great Need Felt
Marian Linn, junior woman on the
student council: “I think that there is
a great need for a co-ed code on the
campus. Although every girl feels
herself, an unwritten campus code,
there has been no definite expression
of one. A statement would undoubted
ly be a great help to students who are
just entering college, and find it hard
to adjust themselves to campus life.”
Mildred Ferguson, senior woman on
student council: “If a campus code
wrere properly worked up, it would be
an excellent thing. If the women of
the University are to adopt su:'h a
code, however, they must not do it in
a half-way manner. Hearty coopera
tion on the part of every co-ed would
be necessary to make the code the suc
cess it must be.”
Helen Manning, editor of the 1920
Oregana: “A co-ed code would be the
crystallization of the traditions which
the women of the University have al
ways left. It would mean putting the
traditions in a definite form. Such
action would undoubtedly be a good
thing.”
BRODIE MEETS OREGON
GRADUATES IN MANILA
Minister to Siam Visited by Several
from This State During Stay
in the Philippines
1 In a letter written from Manila, P. I.,
1 E. E. Brodie, former Oregon student,
' and recently appointed minister to
I Siam, tells of meeting several Oregon
; people during liis short stay in the
1 island metropolis, while enroute to take
1 up his new duties.
While in the capital city he received
several callers, among whom were Mr.

: was formerly Miss Ruth Duniway. She
is an Oregon graduate and member of
Gamma Phi Beta sorority. Her hus
1 band is doing special newspaper work
t in the Orient.

Johns called on the new minister the
'second day in Manila. Before her mar
riage Mrs. Johns was Miss Elizabeth

Mr. Brodie spent 11 days in Manila
’ before sailing for his destination.
' Most of the time was taken up with
sightseeing trips along the boulevards.

1 his new post, having just recently ar
rived there. He is editor of the Ore
gon City Enterprise and also president
of the National Editorial Association.
CAMPUS ARTISTS
Will APPEAR AT
Joanna James, Arthur Johnson.
Glenn Morrow, Bernice
Altstock to Sing
REV. W. H. BODDY SPEAKER
Pastor of Unusual Church;
Number of Different
Sects Enrolled
One of the most attractive features
of the vesper service to be held in the
Methodist church tomorrow afternoon
at 4:30, is the musical program ar
ranged by John Stark Evans, choir
master of the University vesper choir.
The speaker will be Rev. William H.
ltoddy, pastor of the Riverside Congre
gational church of Hood'River.
Mr. Evans has chosen Rachmani
noff’s Prelude in (’ Sharp for the open
ing number of the program. This so
lection is usually used as a brilliant
piano solo. Besides its brilliance,
however, it has’a depth which can only
be realized with an organ or a large
orchestra. “Murmuring Zephyrs’’ by
Jenson is the organ interlude.
Three soloists, Joanna James, so
prano: Arthur Johnson, tenor; and
Glen Morrow, baritone, take part in
the anthem, “Stabat Mater,” bv Du
bois.
Bernice Altstock, whose singing or
casioned much favorable comment dur
ing the recent Coos Bay tour of the
Girls’ Glee club, will sing the famous
“Ave Maria,” by Bach-Gounod.
Mr. Boddy is pastor of one of the
most remarkable churches in the north
west. Although its denomination is
Congregational, it is in reality a com
munity church, serving a number of
different sects. Mr. Boddy has been
successful to a marked degree in this
community work. He is said to be an
interesting speaker.
The custom of taking a collection
will be continued, according to Maurice
Ebon. A fund sufficient to purchase
the vestments for the University choir
has not as yet been secured. It is the
hope of the choir that the vestments
may be obtained before Mothers’ Day.
The Oregon Knights will usher.

Yearlings Cinch Series by
Victory of Last Night;
Coleman Referee
Nineteen points were not enough to
win for the Varsity at O. A. 0. last
night, but were more than enough to
e.ine.h the l'rosh-rook series for Oregon.
Although the Varsity hotly contested
every t). A. 0. point, the Ag five piled
up til points before the game was
closed. The final score of the fresh
man game was 19-111.
Only for a short time at the begin
ning of the Second half when Oregon
came back for its usual rally, were the
Aggies out scored. During most of the
game the superior playing of the O. A.
(’. team had the game its own way.
Four Oregon High Point Men
Latham, Heller, and Burnett tied in
the number of field baskets scored,
each having two to his credit. Andre
converted six free throws.
Gill and Hjelte were high point men
for Oi A. 0.
The Aggies did not start the scoring
with a rush, as in the two previous
games, but nevertheless, kept in the
lead from the beginning.
Oregon converted seven out of 14
free throws, while their opponents
made five, out of eight good.
Ralph Coleman was the referee.

played a fast, aggressive game. Brower
was the rook star.
The frosh line-up was as follows:
King and Crandall, forwards; Jost, cen

70 IN TRACK AT 0. A. C
Aggies Will Compete in American
Championship Indoor Relays
Oregon Agricultural College, Corval
lis, Feb. 10 (P. I. N. 8.)—The first
call for track candidates, by H. H.
Butler, track coach, brought out more
than 7(1 men. He is well pleased with
the turnout, ns most of them are men
with good track ability.
The coach is planning to send a
strong team to the Seattle relays, in
the University of Washington stadium
this spring. Plans have also been made
to send at least five men to the Penn
sylvania indoor relays to compete for
the championship of America. Butler
has developed over 15 distance mon
that he will be able to use to an ad
vantage in picking men for the east
ern trip.
The squad is now working out on the
220-yard indoor track which is one of
the best for training purposes on the
coast.
PLEDGING ANNOUNCED

Junior Jinks to Draw Queer
Old Costumes and Conveyances
Oh! the Devil! Yea, and cowboys,
■ Chinese, prize fighters, multicolored
■ gypsies, maybe even angels, will be
present tonight at the annual Junior
Jazz Jinks in the men’s gym. The
j costumes of the women are reported to
be even more elaborate and dazzling
than the creations which will grace the
manly forms of their escorts.
All manner of conveyances have been
! chartered for the occasion, from the
i humble mono wheeled Irish chariots to
the ((uadruplcx motor vehicle of ancient
vintage. The Sigma Nus, according to
a report not given out yet, have drawn
heavily on the stock of ancient gas
belchers owned and operated by “Cogs”
Campbell and “Grease” McLean. Very
regrettable is the news that “Snooks”
Moore’s flivverette will not be in oper
ation tonight, due to the fact that it
has never entirely recovered from the
disgraceful dumping it gave some six
couples after the sophomore skid of last
year.
Nothing in the line of joy, outside
of hip pocket flaskH, will be confined
during the evening, according to those
in charge. To use the words of the
society editor, “A good time will be
had by all, and the entire congregation
will return to their many homes, tired,
but exceedingly happy.”
