The name of the society has not as yet been decided. Membership will be limited to those who have sophomore standing or who have a sufficient knowledge or desire for mathematics. “This immediate organization,” said Professor E. E. DeCou, head of the mathematics department, “is for the purpose of promoting general interest in mathematical subjects and is pri marily intended for all students inter ested in this line of study.” According to Professor DeCou, a Greek letter honor society may be organized some time in the future when the growth of the department warrants it. Some of the larger schools, he stated, now have honor mathematical societies.

Churchill RIGHT LIVING DEMANDED Organized Hooting Decried, Cheering of Opponents Encouraged “Whenever a school thinks more of winning than of the value of the con test, then that school is not getting what it should out of that contest,” said J. A. Churchill, state supintendent of public instruction, speaking at the | opening joint session of the three con ferences at the University “Y” hut yesterday morning. “If you students will think back over your school days, when you reach my age, you will real ize that it was the clean thinkers and the right livers in your high school life who were respected. “I have been a member of the state athletic board, which was formed in 1913, and I have known something of the athletic troubles which have arisen between schools. I know that prepara tory students have played under as sumed names, I have known of coaches who have had parents make false affi davits as to the eligibility of student athletes, and when I learned of the plan for this conference, I though that if we did nothing else, we could do nothing better than to clean up athletic troubles and put athletics on a higher plane throughout the state.” Bad Sportsmanship Condemned The value of athletic contests, said Superintendent Churchill, is not only in the physical training but in the re lations of the respective student bodies. All organized and unorganized jeering, hooting and like manifestations of bad sportsmanship on the part of either student body should be sternly discour aged, said Mr. Churchill. The practice of cheering for the visiting team Bliould be encouraged by the yell leaders. Mr. Churchill pointed out that the trouble is not always with the students. The town people who are largely free from restraints, often exhibit a most un sportsmanlike spirit, which influences the students to unbecoming demonstra tions and discourteous treatment of the visiting students and team. He also pointed out that he has frequently seen J regrettable articles in high school mag azines and papers. One of the best j things which such a conference can do is to bring about a “recognition of the rights that each school has under the present dav interdependent relations.” Efchool Spirit Vital “The school is the highest form of community expression,” said Mr. Churchill. “As in the case of the old cathedrals of Europe, destroyed in the last waft though they be replaced stone on stone, yet the spirit of the Middle Ages created by the men who built them and the monks who prayed in them can not be duplicated. So with the schools, said Mr. Churchill. The spirit is of chief importance. A student body ex presses the ideals of the men and wom en w’ho worked there, and the high minded students who went to school there. “You students,” said Mr. Churchill, “are representing your schools from all over Oregon. I expect great results of the conference. I plead with you as student leaders to adopt high ideals of leadership that your student bodies may follow you.” RIFLE TEAMS MEET TODAY Phi Sigma Pi, Kappa Theta Chi and A. T. O. Sophomores to Compete This morning, provided the weather is not too stormy, competition in rifle shooting on the “A” range will begin with sophomores from Phi Sigma Pi, Alpha Tau Omega and Kappa Theta Chi participating. Phi Sigma Pi’s sophomores who are listed on their rifle team are Joseph Anthony, Kpnneth Cooper, Melvin Kaegi, Ralph Dodd j ridge. Alpha Tau Omega will be rep resented by Jason McCune, Shirley Ed wards, Howard Hull, Tom Short. Kap pa Theta Chi will be represented by Fred Rice. Other members of their representation have not been an nounced. Shooting will begin at 8:30 o’clock if possible, and Captain F. C. Lewis, who is instructor at the range, desires that organization teams try to be on the range as early as possible in order that full scores may be fired. O.A.C. AND OREGON WOMAN DEBATERS TO CLASH TONIGHT Two-year Tie May Be Decided by Contest; Guild Hall Place of Encounter VARSITY IS INEXPERIENCED Closed Shop Is Subject Under Debate; Negative Team Goes to Corvallis When the Oregon and 0. A. C. wom en ’s debating teams meet in their dual contest here and in Corvallis tonight, they will attempt to break the tie which has existed in forensics for the last year. Oregon won two years ago, and 0. A. C. in 1921. Oregon’s team meets the visiting negative in Guild hall at 8:15 Saturday evening, and Ore gon negative travels to Corvallis. The girls on the Oregon team devot ed the greater part of their spring va cation in preparation for the debate, according to Paul Patterson, forensic manager. The Oregon team will be at a disadvantage in the contest, however, because some of the girls on the Oregon teams have had little or no previous experience in debate. Further, the vic tory of O. A. C. over Washington State college on the question to be debated gives the opposing team an advantage in the way of experience. This, how ever, Patterson thinks, may be largely offset by the extra work done by the Oregon teams during the spring vaca tion. The question, "Resolved that the principle of closed shop should be' adopted,” is a subject which Pi Kappa, national debating society, has used dur ing the past year. Mae Fenno and Glenn Frank will defend the affirma-1 tive side of the question here, and "Edna ! Largent and Florence Furuset will go I to Corvallis tomorrow afternoon to up hold the negative. Hortense Hollebeke and Olga Samuelson, accompanied by C. B. Mitchell, their coach, and his wife, will constitute the O. A. C. dele gation here. Charles Lennon, a Portland lawyer, Professor Erickson of Willamette Uni versity, and Mr. Savage, debate coach of the Salem high school, will act as judges. A chairman for the debate has not been chosen. ENTERTAINMENT PLANNED FOR VISITING GLEE CLUBS Vaudeville Not to Be Attempted by Pomona Organization; College Humor Will Be Presented As a special entertainment featuro for the Pomona Glee club, several members of which are well known on the Oregon campus, is a party which the University men’s glee club is plan ning to give in the Alumni hall im mediately following the Pomona con cert Tuesday night. Maurice Ebon, president of the club, and John Stark Evans, director, are working with the local organization in making final preparations. Every seat in the house has been re served for the concert and tickets placed on sale at the Co-Op and Kuy kendall’s. Considerable interest, is re ported in the appearance of the club here, especially in the coming of Prof. Ralph H. Lyman, director, formerly University of Oregon dean of music. Mr. Lyman says: “The club does not attempt to present a vaudeville bill by any means, but gives, nevertheless, many humorous encores that lighten and liven the entertainment. Given in a spirit of wholesome fun, these encores are genuinely enjoyed bv the entire audience. The best type of college humor is presented in various new and surprising forms. The elnb shows its ability in the campus as well as class ical variety of music, swinging into the syncopated barber-shop chords with a harmony that is a joy to hear.” DEPARTMENT BUYS SLIDES Alfred Powers Asked to Write Illus trated Article on Cities A series of new slides, consisting of pictures of the cities of the country that have a population of more than 100,000, of which there are over 70, has been added to the equipment of the department of visual instruction of the extension division. Following the addition of the new series, the “American City” magazine has asked Alfred Powers, head of the visnal instruction department, to pre pare an illustrated article on these cities. EASTER SERVICE AT Y. W. Sirs. George Bohler Speaks on Easter; Mu Phi Quartet Sings Devotional services appropriate to ' Ihe Easter season were held at the Y. \ W. C. A. Bungalow Thursday afternoon. I The Mu Phi Epsilon quartet, composed if Bernice Altstoek, Leona Gregory, Mrs. W. M. Case, Mrs. Kose Powell and Mildred Smith, rendered “There Is a ; Green Bill Far Away,” accompanied by i Lucile Merton. Mrs. George Bohler spoke on the significance of Easter and its many lessons applicable to daily life. The installation of the officers of the association, elected last week, also took place and the new president, Le Laine West, presided over the meeting. A number of the high school girls visiting on the campus were present. COLLEGE NIGHT II BIG HIT VISITING STUDENTS GUESTS AT EVENING OP THRILLS Bill Hayward’s Movies, Glee Clubs, Orchestra and Quartet Are Warmly Received Visiting high school students and ath letes were guests at a real college “pep” test last night in the woman's building, where Oregon spirit was dished out by the bucketful to all comers. Of course the real hit of the evening, the event which thrilled the “preppers” and made the athletes grit their teeth with determination was the awarding of sweaters to 17 of Oregon’s gridsters and letters to the girls ’ basketball team. As each recipient apeared ou the stage to receive the award ho was greeted with thundering cheers. The musical hit of the evening was a a selection from Victor Herbert’s “The Only Girl,” played by the University Orchestra under the leadership of Rex Underwood. Another favorite was Ron ald Reid, formerly with Ellison-White Chautauqua, who gave several numbers an the piano, including Rachmaninoff’s “Prelude” and “The Russian Rag.” The Girls’ Glee Club sang several selections, including “From the Land of the Sky Blue Water,” and “Where the Moon Drops Low.” The Men’s Glee Club sang “The Shores of Silence” and “Invictus.” A comedy quartette composed of Cur tis Phillips, Roy Bryson, French Moore and Aubrey Furry received three encores for rendering some “jazzy” musical spe cialties in a most clever manner. Oregon’s veteran coach, Bill Hayward, explained a series of motion pictures of world-famous athletes and by means of the slow pictures showed exactly how their tricks were turned. Bill’s part of the program also included movies of some of Oregon’s famous athletes. The high school delegates were partic ularly Interested iri the motion pictures taken on the campus during junior week end, which gave them a good idea of one phase of college lifo and of the trials and glories of the freshmen class. SOPHS GIVEN NUMBERS; CONVICTS? NO, LOTTERY Identity of Partner Not Known Until Escort Calls; Postal Cards to Make AU Dates Monday Brr! Brrl “Hello, may I speak to-er-ah number ah i:if” Wuvery masculine intonation on telephone. Shocked voice at other end: “What do you think this is—the feeble insti tute f” Angry voice: “Hut that s what the card says, the sophomore lottery—” “Oh-h h h! T understand now,” the other party registers with many giggles. “Just a minute, I’ll call your number.” (Business of referring to sophomore list.) “Oh Phoebe, number 111, here’s your big chance.” Eventually Number l.'l will get up curiosity and courage enough to go to the phone. Then will ensue the follow ing preliminaries: “I won’t tell who I am if you don't!” and both numbers will remain unidenti fied until the big night. The results of the sophomore lottery will probably take place in the above order. Monday or Tuesday morning every member of the sophomore class will re ceive a postal card telling the number he drew. There is absolutely no way that either party can find out who his number represents except by calling. It is suggested that women living in private residences explain the process to the people of the house so that when a man calls and asks for number 60 he will not be thought a lunatic. MUSIC AT CAMPA SHOPPE Ralph H. Aldred, pianist, and Helen Harper, violinist, University students, will give a musical program Sunday even ing at “Ye Campa Shoppe.” This will be the entertainment provided by II. R. Taylor, proprietor of the establishment, who plans to have a special dinner every Sunday evening hereafter for the stu dents. \ TABARD INN ELECTS Ye Tabard Inn of Sigma Upsilon elects Harold Shirley and Fred B. Michelson. STUDENT PROBLEMS DISCUSSED ID FIRST DATS CONFERENCE Relations of Publications to School and Public Oc cupy Editors OFFICERS HOLD SESSION President of State Teachers’ Association Among Speakers Thirty high schools in all parts of Oregon are represented in the two-day session of student body officers and editors and managers of publications which convened on the campus yester day morning. More than 150 delegates were present when President Campbell called the joint meeting to order in the Y. M. C. A. Hut at 9 o’clock, and be fore night the number had so grown that more than 175 of the visitors were present at the banquot which wound up the busy day. State Superintendent Speaks The first speaker in the joint session was J. A. Churchill, state superinten dent of public instruction, who dis cussed briefly the question of inter scholastic relations, especially with re gard to athletic tangles which arise every season between the various high schools of the state. After Mr. Churchill’s address, Lyle Bartholomew, student body president, was introduced to the delegates by President Campbell. Bartholomew briefly outlined the plans for the con ference and mentioned particularly the association of student body presidents and secretaries, which ho hoped that the delegates would seo fit to organize before the close of the conference. The plan for the proposod association is modeled on that of the Pacific Coast Association of Studont Body Presidents of the Universities. At the close of Bartholomew’s talk the presidents and secretaries adjourned to the Y. W. C. A. bungalow for a sep arate session, the editors remaining in the “Y” hut. Widen Paper’s Interest By making tho high school paper an organ of interest to the entire com munity, the advertiser will appreciate its value ns a means of publicity and gladly use its space for his advertising matter, Dean Brie W. Allen, of the University school of journalism, point ed out in the opening address to tho high school editors in the “Y” hut. Tn tho absence of Arthur Montgomejy, of Salem, president of the State High School Press association, tho meeting was presided over by Trva Dale, of Pendleton, vice-president of tho associ ation. Over 50 delegates representing L’5 high schools of the state attended the editors’ session, which began at 10 o’clock. Some unknown Factors In his address, “Working with the Local Editor,” Dean Allen compared the publication of a journal to a prob lem in algebra. “You have seven fac tors to contend with,” he said. “Three of these are known, while the other four are unknown. The known factors are the writer, the high school, and the high school organization, which includes the students. The unknown factors are the outside public, which forms its opinion of the high school from the high school paper; the families in the community, the advertiser, and the pub lisher of the local newspaper. If you can organize a high school paper with all these factors working together har moniously, your task will be compara tively easy.” The Dean then emphasized the im portance of the local publisher and pointed out how high school publica tions in the past had made the mistake of failing to cooperate with him by selling advertising at a wrong rate and on a wrong basis. “Do to your local editor and discuss your problems with him while you are formulating plans for your high school paper,” he advised. Some Editorial Fallings Citing the example of one country editor who allowed the high school paper in his town free play upon his advertising and circulation, Dean Allen said that such a policy was proving a complete success but for the deficiency in the editorial side of the high school publication. In conclusion he empha sized the importance of the greater and more varied use of names in the news noteB as a means of creating a broader interest in the publication. Earl Kilpatrirk, director of the ex tension division, assuming the role of the general public, in terse statements told the embryo journalists that hia (Continued on page two.)
