NUMBER 79
SENIORS VICTORS BY
TWO POINTS IN RAGE
FOR CHAMPIONSHIP
Juniors Defeated in Girls’
Interclass Basketball
by Score 30-28
TEAMS TIED UNTIL END
Varsity Practice Will Begin
Immediately; Game With
0. A. C In March
The seniors won the interclass wom
en ’s basketball championship from the
juniors last night by a score of 30 to
28. At the end of the regular game,
the score stood a tie, 28 to 28, but in
the extra five minutes the seniors made
one basket and as a result claim the
distinction of being the first senior
class to have its name engraved on the
Hayward cup.
At the end of the first half, the tally
sheet indicated an easy victory for the
juniors who had 18 points in their fa
vor against 11 for the seniors. In the
last half, however, the senior forwards,
scored 17 tallies, and at the blow of
the whistle were exactly even with
their opponents.
Game Hard Fought
The game was characterized by hard
fighting and by good pass work on the
part of botli teams. The girls have ,
been playing together for only two t
weeks, but were chosen from members
of the doughnut teams and have been 1
practicing since the beginning of the
season last fall.
“The interclass games this year were
exceedingly interesting” said Miss Em- '
ma Waterman, coach of basketball.
“ Since the teams were all so evenly
matched. In the past, there has al
ways been some team that has been
decidedly weaker than the rest—usually
the senior team—but this year they
broke away from precedent and won
the cup.”
Varsity Practice Opens
The game last night closes the inter
class series for this year, and varsity
practice will begin immediately. Any
girl who has been out for basketball
practice this year playing either on the
doughnut or interclass series, is eligible
to try out for the team. No definite
date has been set for the only varsity
game of the season, but it will be
played with the Oregon Agricultural
College girls’ team some time in March.
The lineup for yesterday’s game was:
Seniors (30) Juniors (28)
O. Pederson, 26.F.C. Howells, 18
Alice Evans, 4.McCormick, 10
Grace Tigard .JC. M. Flagel
Echo Balderee ....RC.... Wilma Chattin
M. Goodin.G. Dorcas Conklin
Emily Perry.G. Pearl Lewis
Referee: Miss Waterman.
KISSES TO BE BOUGHT
AND SOLD ON CAMPUS
Hearts Also to be Disposed of for Cash;
Bead the Story if This
Interests You
“Aw, have a heart!”
“Gimme a hiss!”
“Oh, you horrid thing! You broke
my heart!”
“Mix ’em up.”
Hearts and kisses, logical team mates,
will be openly on sale on the campus
today, February 14, St. Valentine’s
day, the day after Monday the 13th
and just before Wednesday the 15th.
However, it will not be a pre-matri
monial bureau which will have charge
of the salesmen.
Pot and Quill, a local chapter of W.
W. W. (Women Who Write) and col
loquially known as Kettle and Feather,
is behind the promiscuous dispensation
of great sugary cookie hearts and
equally delectable, (or is it decollete?)
kisses. The edibles wil be on sale
from the time of the first eight o’clock
(James H. Gilbert’s, without question)
until the last five o’clock has been
dismissed t More than likely presided
over by one T. Cloran).
The price list has been announced as
follows:
Three kisses, five cents.
Two hearts, a niekle. (Hearts come
higher than kisses').
Two kisses and one heart, a jitney.
One heart and two kisses, one-half
dime.
Tn other words, the main motto is a
now extinct cigar slogan: “Two for a
nickel regardless of expense.”
Prominent members of Pot and Quill
have expressed the hope that a number
of students provide themselves with
ni kies for the occasion. Senior women
will find this a good opportunity for
cheap dates.
Senior’s Bright Dr earn
of Popularity Fades
as Secret Comes Out
Men Feted by Co-eds at Theaters
Think Themselves Picked From
All Class; Find ’Twas Lotteried
By SENIOR SLEUTH
Now here’s the blow, all you senior
men of the week. Since Monday night
is come and gone the time for an
nouncement is upon us. Lest you find
your hats too small or vour grins in
fair way of becoming perpetual. The
secret of -your popularity is out.
The lady who escorted you away from
the noisy house convention last night
down, down to the gay whirl of the
Rex orchestra which kept time to the
swish of peacocks ’ plumes and your
extatic foot, had, so you thought,
chosen you from among men. She had
singled you out and through her initia
tive made you partner of the evening.
Under your studied composier you had
debated in the secret depths of your
mind: whether in truth it were your
marcelle or your wit. It was neither.
The truth follows: the lady escorted
you last night under compulsion of a
senior women’s committee, known as
the. welfare board which originated
with the idea of seeing that less popular
men should see the light of a date be
fore the exit of senior week. The plan
was worked out, on the basis of a lot
tery. She drew your name. There was :
no alternative.
This afternoon the Kappas are stag
ing a coffee social which has no con
nection with a lottery. The lady who
asked to see you to the door is abso
lutely an authentic dater and no doubt
sought you out for some reason or
other. Thursday afternoon the Alpha
Chi Omega seniors are sponsoring a
musicale af their chapter house. Music
such as only Johny Dierdort'f and Bark
Laughlin can produce.
Several senior names were omitted
from the first list printed in the Emer
aid some days ago. They have com
plained that due to this fact they
have a free and monotonous schedule
for next week.
Dwight Parr, resembles Mexican bull
fighter, disposition a surprise. m
Harry Smith, able to catch wireless
musical concerts anywhere at anytime
due to longitude.
Art Rudd, often mistaken for a sen
ior, statistics prove him to be member ,
of sophomore class.
Norvelle Thompson, posseses perfect
accent and stride.
INDIAN LIFE TO BE TOPIC
SENATOR JOHN GILL SPEAKER AT
THURSDAY ASSEMBLY
Aborigines Will be Discussed by Author
Who Has Written Numerous
Books Concerning Northwest
John Gill, pioneer of Oregon anil
prominent citizen of Portland, will
address the Thursday assembly on the
subject of “How our Indians Lived.”
Senator Gill is an authority on the
Indians of the northwest. He is the
author of numerous published articles
dealing with aboriginal life in this
part of America. One of his chief
works has been the compilation of a
dictionary of Chinook jargon. Mr. Gill
sends word that he intends “to describe
the commonplace rather than the heroic
side of Indian life on the Columbia,
Willamette, and the coast.”
Senator Gill was born in England
whence he came at the age of 13. He
began his training at the Methodist
academy at Willbraham, Massachusetts,
While a student there he was induced
to accept a position on the faculty of
Willamette University at Salem. He
resigned his chair there in 1867 and
opened a book store of which he was
the sole proprietor. He went to Port
land in 1871 to seek larger fields. The
J. K. Gill Company there is the out
growth of his successes.
Mr. Gill has been prominent in pub
lic life in the state. He has been a
member of the state legislature and of
the fish and game commission. He is
known as an outdoor man and a sports
man. He is a lover of nature and has
made a study of outdoor life in the
northwest. The lecture will be illus
trated with many charcoal drawings.
He will also speak at the Eugene cham
ber of commerce at noon on Thursday.
FRIEND OF Y. W, GIVES
CLEANUP TO BUNGALOW
C. H. Hales Starts Spring Work for
Girls; Miss Kerns to Help
on Rug Selection
The Y. W. C. A. bungalow is receiv
ing a beautiful Spring retouching this
week, if anyone questions the huge
buckets and the various articles of
painter’s apparatus bedecking the
bungalow front-poreli.
At the root of all this is none other
than one of the Y. W. 's best friends.
C. H. Hales, of the firm of Preston
& Hales, of this city.
The Y. W. telephone rang the other j
day, and Mr. Hales requested that
the opportunity be given him to start
the bungalow’s spring house-cleaning
by financing the tinting and calsomin
ing of the entire building. So work
men are busily carrying out his orders
and interior of the bungalow bears a i
brightened aspect.
Further plans are being made to make
the bungalow still more attractive and
cozier than ever. Miss Maude Kerns,
of the art department will advise the
bungalow committee as to appropriate
rugs an.) bangings, and the bungalow
will soon be a most inviting place. j
VALUABLE AMATI VIOLIN WILL
BE USED BY ARTIST
Honorary Member of Mu Phi Epsilon
and Accompanist Will be Given
Reception After Recital
To make a trip of hundreds of miles
for the privilege of paying several
thousand dollars for a very old violin
falls to the lot of few persons, yet this
is what Mrs. Susie Fennell Pipes, who
will appear in concert at the Woman’s
building tomorrow night, did to acquire
the rare old Amati violin upon which
she plays.
While filling a professional engage
ment in San Francisco, Mrs. Pipes
heard of this instrument, which was
built in 1590 by the great Italian master
violin builder, Amati. It is one of the
very few such violins now extant, all
of which are registered. She played on
the violin, which has been the favorite
instrument of many celebrated artists
of Europe during the past 350 years,
its rich, mellow tone captivated her—
but the instrument could not be bought.
The owner would not break up his
beloved collection. However, upon the
death of the collector, Mrs. Pipes per
suaded the estate to part with the
violin.
The program for the concert tomor
row night will be:
1.—Bach
Sonata for Violin and Piano, A major.
Andante.
Allegro assai.
Andante up poco.
Presto.
II.—Beethoven
Sonata, F Minor, Op. 57, for piano.
Assia allegro.
Andante eon moto.
Allegro, ma non troppo.
III.—Brahms
Sonata, for Piano and Violin, D minor..
Op. 108.
Allegro.
Adagio.
T'n poco presto e eon sentimento.
Presto agitato.
Although it is not generally known,
Mrs. Pipes is an honorary member of
the Oregon Chapter of Mu Phi Epsilon,!
national musical sorority. The mem
bers of Mu Phi Epsilon will act as!
hostesses at the concert, and will tender'
Mrs. Pipes and Miss Michaelson, pian
ist accompanying Mrs. Pip,-a, a rerep
tion after the concert. Those in the
receiving line will be Mrs. P. L. Camp
bell, Mrs. Pipes, Mrs. Thaeher, Miss
Michaelson, Dean Fox, and Beulah
Clark, president of the Oregon Chapter
of Mu Phi Epsilon.

GERMAN SCIENTIFIC
MAGAZINECONTAINS
WHEELER ARTICLES
"The Will' Has Papers Written
by Member of Psychology
Department
COOPERATION AGAIN SEEN
Lack of Money Hardship on
Education According
to Letter
Dr. R. II. Wheeler, of the psychology
department, is the author of several
articles in the third edition of “The
Will,” published by Dr. Johannes Lind
worskv, of the department of psychol
ogy of the University of Cologne, tier
many. This is one of the first evi
deuces that German scientists are
again cooperating with their American
colleagues, after the long break result
ing from the world war.
Some time ago Dr. Wheeler received
a request from the German professor
asking for some reprints on several of
his articles, and saying that he was
very handicapped for material' due to
the fact that the University of Cologne
is a newly organized institution and
that practically no foreign publications
were available as yet. Four articles
were sent as the result of the request.
They dealt with mental processes in
voluntary decisions and a work on
‘‘Colored Hearing,” the investigation
for which was conducted on the Ore
gon campus, with Tom Cutsforth, the
blind assistant in the psychology de
partment, as subject. Two of the ar
ticles had been printed in the Univer
sity of Oregon Scientific Series, one in
the American Journal of Psychology
and one in the Psychological Review.
Copy of Book Received
In return for the articles Dr. Wheeler
received a copy of the professor’s hook
on “Experimental Psychology” and a
long letter, written in German script,
which tells of the difficulty which Ger
man scientists are having to maintain
their standards. The number of stu
dents in German educational institu
tions has been cut down because of the
scarcity of money, it says, adding that
students and professors alike are hav
nig a hard time to make any progress
because of lack of equipment.
“Those students that we have are
very earnest,” declares the professor,
who has furnished a laboratory from
his private funds, “and are anxious to
get their country on its old footing.”
I believe that the cooperation of
scientists in the various countries of
the world is a step toward the renliva
tion of world peace,” he added in eX
pressing the hope that Amernean n,i„.
cators would forget past differences.
Conditions Thought Bad
In communting on the letter Dr
Wheeler said that the condition in
Herman scientific circles is evidently
quite serious. The new institutions
such as the University of Cologne are
not given much financial support and
their equipment is practically nil. The
working condition of Professor Lind
worsky and his small group of strug
gling students is characterized as “pa
thetic” by the Oregon psychologist.

Neophytes To
Show Ability
Next Thursday
Hart, Schaffner and Marx are due
to make a personal appearance on the
campus next Thursday. Full evening
dress is to be their garb, just as
though they had been to a formal
hootch party and had absent
mindedly forgotten to remove their
habits (good and bad) before com
ing up to school the next morning. |
The men taking the part of the ,
w. k. clothiers are Jay Allen, Phil !
Brogan and Ep Hoyt, neophytes of
Sigma Delta Chi. They will come to
classes clad in swallow tails, white
vests silk hats and patent leathers.
At 10:50 a. m. they will ascend the
library steps and talk on some sub
ject more or less coimected with their
calling and after that attend as
sembly, just to add a touch of formal
ity to the usually unconventional pro
gram. That afternoon and evening
they will edit the Friday morning
Emerald, the regular staff getting a
vacation.
Publicity Material to Include
Items of Scholastic and
Athletic Activities
Tin' newspapers, both dailies and
weeklies, and the high school papers of
the state are already receiving public
ity material from the members of the
Greater Oregon publicity committee.
"More interest should be shown by Ore
gon students in this movement,
since it is through the efforts of this
committee that the better class of stu
dents is attracted to Oregon,” stated
Raymond Lawrence, who is the public
ity member of the executive committee.
All items of interest, such as ath
letic contests, articles on the scholastic
requirements, scholastic achievements
of students and graduates, will be given
state wide publicity.
State Divided Into Zones
Stories are to be sent broadcast
throughout the state, and will contain
information of the coming joint con
ference of high school editors, presi
dents and woman’s leagues to be held
here sometime in April, and of the Uni
versity Junior Week-end.
The state, according to present plans,
is to be divided into zones, each under
the direction of a member of the pub
licity committee, which is composed of
Raymond Lawrence, chairman; George
Stewart, Elmer Clark, Edwin Eraser,
Dan Lyons, and Alfred Erickson. All
matter that can possibly be used by the
local or high school papers is to be
distributed in each zone.
A special campaign for the high
school students is to be a feature of
this year’s program. In this the publi
cations of the high schools will take a
prominent part. Special matter is to
be distributed by members of the pub
licity committee for this purpose, and
later in the spring material will be fur
nished for a special Oregon edition, if
satisfactory arrangements can be made
with the high school authorities.
Work is Progressing
All members of the Greater Oregon
committee are urged by those in charge
to cooperate with the publicity com
mittee, and to give the University
all the publicity possible in their home
towns.
Good work is being done at the pres
ent time in many of the1 larger towns
throughout the state, according to Law
fence, and it is expected that within a
short time every town of any size will
be covered either bv members of the
publicity committee or other Greater
Oregon members.

BASKETBALL LULL
MOSCOW THIS WEEK
Washington and Idaho to Play
For Pennant Tonight
and Wednesday
! -
OREGON FIVE GOES SOUTH
Burnett Stars in 0. A. C. Game;
New Style of Passing
. Proving Effective
This will be the big week in intor
eolleginto basketball circles with a pen
nant deciding series coming up between
the league leaders, Washington and
Idaho, at Moscow tonight. The Sun
dodgers will have to take at least one
of the games with Idaho to get a death
grip on the' bunting, while the Musco
vites will have to take M>oth games
from the Washington five to finish on
top.
following the Idaho series Washing
ton will journey to Pullman where they
will tangle with the Cougars on Thurs
day and Friday nights. Although the
Huskies, formerly Sundodgers, over
whelmed the Pullmanites in their two
game set to in Seattle a week ago, the
Staters will put up an awful battle in
their own gym, and they will be aided
by their low ceiling which will prevent
the Washington point getters from
hooping their high, long shots.
Oregon Plays Toniglit
Oregon opens in the south tonight
against the California Bears, winding
up the series at Berkeley tomorrow
evening, resting Thursday and then
finishing the invasion with a two game
series against Stanford on Friday and
Saturday nights.
Defeated on all sides and by all hands
in the Pacific Coast Conference the
Varsity would seem to have but small
chance of breaking info the win column,
for the Golden Bear is very strong in
the court sport in spite of a double
defeat at the hands of Washington.
The Stanford Cards will be hard for
the Lemon-Yellow to trim on their floor
after taking two from the Varsity up
hero.
Playing strictly on the defensive the
Oregon five dropped the closing game
of the Aggie series 24-21. Securing the
ball in the vicinity of the Aggie basket
the varsity started passing slowly with
no effort toward getting the ball down
the floor until they had drawn down
the collegians when the ball was heaved
up to some waiting Oregonian who
slipped it through the basket. This
style of pluy proved effective against
the farmers and the score .'14-21 was
the closest of the series.
Burnett was the outstanding etar
for the Oregon team, playing a good
game besides being high point man for
the Lemon Yellow. Hoekhey looked
pretty good after entering the game,
while Goar who was switched from
guard to forward, fitted into the pas
sing scheme that was a factor in
checking the Ag attack.
“Slats” Gill, high point man for the
collegians, had his horse shoe on his hip
Saturday night and was dropping them
in from all angles. Gill was the high
point man for the Orange and Black
with six field goals to his credit, five
of which lie secured in the final period.
