MEANING OF ASCETICISM IN INDIA IS DISCUSSED Bates and Griffin Comment on View of Kanshi Ram “Ascetic practises may have drawn Hindus and Mohammedans together to some extent,” said Hr. Krnost S. Hates, head of the rhetoric department, in commenting on I^anshi Ram's views of asceticism in India, “but that the spirit of nationalism is an outgrowth of asceticism per se l seriously question.” In explanation he said the tendency of asceticism was toward individualism —the saving of the individual soul rather than toward group movement. “Asceticism has been a doctrine of India for centuries. Obviously, then, the nationalistic activity of the last 2u years may be attributed to other cir eumstances, such as the spread of cdu cation, the introduction of western spirit, and the greater political liberty now allowed bv the Knglish.” Ascetic Practises Used Professor Eldon Griffin of the his tory department, who has spent several years in the orient, also believes that the nationalistic, movement has not grown out of asceticism. Tie said, how ever; “The nationalist leader Gandhi, a Hindu, employed ascetic practices to win over his Mohammedan assistants in his non cooperation program. “Mr. Ham is quite correct in empha sizing the important influence of ascot icism on the minds of the people of India. T should say that the political importance of this social practice is as a form of appeal rather than an end in itself. Only by getting the view point of the oriental mind,” asserted Mr. Griffin, “can we sympathetically understand s u c h social phenomena among Asiatic peoples.” Several Decades Old The nationalist spirit dates back sev oral decades, after the British took over the governing of India from tin British East India company, according to Professor Griffin. In the recent movement lie believes that by assoclat jug common traditional religious prac tices with the nationalistic policies, leaders have gained much support, both with the Hindus and the Mohamme dans. As to the spread of the non coopera tion program used by India to meet the use of force, Mr. Griffin said: “Korea is taking up tho policy in her relations, with .lupnn, and Chinn has long absorbed invaders in the same way.” MORE JOBS READY AT ‘Y’ Chairman Buren PraisoH Cooperation of Downtown Peoplo in Giving Work The number of odd .joliH open to moil students is increasing, according to Wolcott Huron, chairman of the cam pus V.

Kirtlev and Whitcomb both have a very good chance to come out well in their bouts, the coach thinks, but does not believe that Oregon can take enough bouts to win the meet. Kirtle\ was sick for a week before the last event, but has been improving since that time ami should give his man a much harder time than he did here. Whitcomb had a close match last time, and with the added practice may turn the tables on the Aggie this time.

STADIUM SITE TROUBLES Berkeley Council Votes to Leave Selec tion to University Berkeley, Calif., Feb. 10.—Condemna tion proceedings against the property originally planned for California’s me morial stadium were ordered withdrawn by the regents of the University of California at a recent special meeting. No definite decision was reached as to the location to be selected, but several campus and several off-campus sites were discussed. The City Council of the city of Berkeley passed a resolution to leave the matter of the soletion of a stadium site entirely to the discretion of the University authorities. This policy was adopted following a number of written objections to the removal ot the original sit<* by Berkeley citizens. The council took the stand that they are ready to cooperate and support rather than interfere and offer their own solution.

Putnam, “Y” secretary, will involve not only the highest type of athletic ability, but also the utmost in telligence, will begin next Wednesday at the Y. M. hut, when the checker, chess, and shuffleboard meet gets under way. Many stars have already been developed, and the keen competition expected will no doubt attract large and enthusiastic crowds for all match ga mes. Chuck Spear, who is now heralded as the chess champion, stands ready to defend his title, and should have little difficulty unless some prodigy, Russian or otherwise, puts in an appearance on the campus. Other exponents of the game are not yet ready to concede Spear the Golden Crown of Checker dom, however, and are working hard to perfect an attack which will baffle the champ. Maccoby, who is also heralded as a hard man to jump in a checker game, Don Zimmerman and Walt Belt are well known for their ability with the wooden nutmegs. Tn checkers, the matches will no doubt be close, and some all night ses sions are expected. Glen Morrow may achieve a few victories bv lulling his opponent to sleep with his vocal ability, whie Dell Tedrow, Reuben Young, and Ole Dien have been reported as placing heavy bets on themselves against the field'. Tn the shuffleboard tournament, Verne Bullock, according to dope given out by himself, will succeed in shimmy ing more brass counters off yon end of the board than any other contestant. m Dr. Ella Crowser CHIROPRACTIC offers you HEALTH!

Just why Eugene butchers have not en acted a uniform closing rule previously is a matter for conjecture, unless it is an unwillingness to get out of the small-town class. All other business establishments in the city have a set time for closing, to which all enterprises conform. Banks close promptly at noon, plumbing shops at five, and so on. There is no apparent reason why meat markets should be called upon to keep open all day and night as has been the custom in the past. To remedy this ancient habit the meat dealers of Eugene have entered into the follow ing agreement, breach of which will mean forfeiture of integrity: Commencing February 11, 1922 we. the undersigned, owners or operators of the meat markets set forth under our respective names, do hereby mutually agree to close our doors promptly at six o’clock each day except Saturday, when the time will be extended one hour—to 7:00 p. m.
