COLLEGE RIVALRY
CAUSES BRANDING
U. S. C. Burnt into Forehead
of Rival Student; Victim
in Serious Condition
The year old bitter state of relations
between the student bodies of the Uni
versity of California aid the southern
branch of the University of California
arrived at a breaking point last week
when “Bill” Sykes, a student at the
southern branch, was found bound, gag
ged and suffering from acid burns on
his forehead, which read “U. 8. C.”
According to the story told by Sykes,
he was awakened at 2:30 o’clock Tues
day morning to find that his ankles and
wrists were being tied with fine piano
wire by three men whom he was unable
to identify. Upon crying out one of the
men stuffed a bath sponge into his
mouth.
The three men then went about paint
ing the initials U. S. C. on his forehead
and neck with chemicals. He was then
left, tied to his bed and uncovered until
assistance came in the morning.
The exposure which sykes suffered
during the cold morning hourB coupled
with the injury from the acid burns is
said to have placed him in a serious con
dition as he was gassed in h ranco dur
ing the war. Physicians who treated
the young student for the burns Btated
that he may be disfigured for life.
The faculty of the University of Sou
thern California stated that the cause
for the enmity between the institutions
dated back to an attempt made a year
ago by the Southern Branch to start a
bonfire on the University’s campus
shortly after local universities entered
into a comity pact for the purpose of
maintaining friendly relations.
The university faculty, at a meeting
held last night for the purpose of de
termining the instigators of Sykes’
branding and the recent riot staged on
the campus two weeks ago, issued an
official statement in which it was de
clared that every effort would be made
to fix the blame on the guilty parties.
They termed the branding a criminal
act and offered to cooperate with Sou
thern Branch officials in the attempt to
apprehend the offenders.
A committee headed by Major W. B.
Bovard, controller of the university,
was appointed to investigate the recent
discord.
“I don’t know why they picked on
ine,” Sykes declared. “I have never
even seen the campus of tho U. S. C.
The three men who attacked me said
that they would get two more of us and
I think I know who they mean.”
HOME ECONOMICS FOLK
GET NEW EQUIPMENT
Tempting Viands to Be Displayed and
Sold to Hungry Podestrlans
Passing By
A now Sellers kitchen cabinet, a Lor
ain oven with heat regulator, and a
mnull display case have been added to
the equipmnt of the home economics
department.
The display case, the exterior of
which is to be retlnishcd with white
enamel, is to serve as salesman for the
domestic science department. Itepre
sentative articles of food are to be
displayed in the case which stands in
the hall of the home economics building
and those persons passing through the
hall why behold the tempting viands
and desire to partake of the same may
find replicas in the laboratory. It is
to be understood that the department
.ciunnot supply a great demand but oecu
*i°hnuv surplus foods are to be sold.
Last year the expenses of the depart
incut were reduced in this manner and
the device also made it possible to make
tin* work more economical and practical
bv doing the cooking in quantities suit
able for the average family.
The first part of this term the work
in domestic science has consisted of
menu planning, canning and preserving
fruits and vegetables so that there has
been little material for sale but from
now on and especially in the winter
term the work will entail thy produc
tion of salable foods.
SELF-EXPRESSION ART
TO BE TAUGHT CO-EDS
Interpretative Dancing Better Called
Educational, Bays Miss Stupp.
Head of Course
••Wo have hoard of all types of duno
inn from the beginning of time,” said
Miss Lillian Stupp in charge of the
dancing classes in physical education.
"Usually, we have thought of it as an
external thing of grace with little
thought or feeling behind the gestures,
the artificial posings. A somewhat dif
ferent approach has been made recently
at the University of Wisconsin. The
type evolved has been called interprets
tive for want of a better name. It is
really educational dancing, for its aim
is to develop the individual to her best
capacity. It gives a means for self ex
pression through the medium of rhyth
mica l body movement, instead of
through some other medium. Its appeal
is whut is universal in everybody, to j
fundamental basic physiological and ed
ucational principles.
"This educational dancing is spread
ing very rapidly to all parts of the Uni
ted States, and is being taught here at
the University of Oregon for the first
time this year,” Miss Stupp said. “All
freshman and sophomore women are
having one period a week of it, since it
was felt that every girl should have an
appreciation of these things. The ma
jors in physical education are putting
more concentrated effort on.the work in
view of teaching it as part of their
physical education work. There is also
an elective dancing class open to upper
class women.”
Miss Stupp is a graduate of Washing
ton University in St. Louis, where she
received her B.A. degree. Later she at
tended the University of Wisconsin and
took her M.A. degree in physical edu
cation.
DO-NUT DEBATE SERIES
DRAWS MM ENTRIES
Twelve Houses Sign to Date
On War Debt Question
In the women’s do-nut debate series
this year twelve houses are planning
to have debate teams. This evidences
more interest than has been shown for
some time and will make the competi
tion keener.
The question for debate is “Resolved: i
that the United States cancel all Allied
war debts with the exception of Great
Britain.” The men’s do-nut teams are
debating the same topic and the win
ning men’s team debates the winners of
the women’s series.
The women’s debates are in charge of
Zeta Kappa Psi, honorary debate so
ciety. A new plan has been adopted
this year, that is, there is to be no coach
that is not a student in the University.
Each house is to pick out its individual
coach as there will be no head coach.
The date for the debates is set for No
vember 21, 22 and December 4.
The women’s varsity debate team will
debate the California varsity team when
they come north to debate with O. A.
C., Reed, and Washington. The date
is not yet set.
The houses to have teams are Gamma
Phi Beta, Delta Gamma, Pi Beta Phi,
Alpha Delta Pi, Alpha Chi Omega, Al
pha Xi Delta, Chi Omega, Delta Zeta,
Alpha Phi, Hendricks Hall, Susan
Campbell Hall, Oregon Club.
OOUGHNUTlPElSET
IN FAST HOOP GAMES
Phi Delts, Kappa Delts, A. B. C.
Phi Sigma Pi Win Contests
A complete upset in the do-nut bas
ketball dope was the defeat of the
Fijis by the Phi Delt quintet ..last night
19 to 14. The Pijis up to this game had
been disposing of all opponents easily,
and were booked to win it by quite a
large score.
The game was featured by consider
able fouling by both sides, Gavin for
the Phi Delts converting the most of
his froe throws.
Another upset in the do-nut games
last night was that between Alpha Tail
Omega and Kappa Delta Phi. The
Alpha. Tuu team was doped to bo ono
of the strongest in the league, while
the Kappa Dolts were not considered
strong contenders. They jumped into
the lead from the first and were never
headed, the final count being ~1 to 12 in i
their favor. Carson played the best
game for the losers, while the entire |
Kappa Delt team played fast ball.
The Chi i’sis were beaten yesterday i
afternoon by the Alpha Heta Chi quin
tet by a score of 16 to 0. in spite of
the ragged team work of both sides the j
game was fairly fast. It was a rough
game for both sides. Martinson, the 1
high point man for the winner’s showed
excellent speed and accuracy in shoot |
ing. Cant, guard on the losers’ team,,
scored C out of 10 points.
In a rough and tumble game the Phi
Sigma l'i five defeated the Delta Theta
l'his by the narrow margin of one point.
Although both teams were fighting hard
until the last gun, there was little foul-^
ing and no time was taken out. The
final score was 7 to 6.

Dean’s Letter to Old Grads Pic
tures Homecoming Pro
gram Features
The Homecoming issue of “Old Ore
gon,” the University alumni magazine,
is just off the press. The cover alone on
the magazine with a large picture of the
Oregon football team in action is enough
to bring all Oregon grads back to the
campus for Homecoming on November
11th. From cover to cover it is filled
with Oregon spirit, what is going on at
the University, and the extensive plans
for Homecoming.
Miss Grace Edgington, ’16, is editor
nf “Old Oregon” and Miss Jeanette
Galkins, ’18, is the business manager.
Both are graduates from the University
of Oregon in journalism. “Old Oregon”
is published monthly and this issue will
go to 3,500 former students and gradu
ates of the University.
The Homecoming program, of course,
has the most important place in the mag
azine. Tt tells the alumni about the big
rally on Friday night, the alumni meet
ing on Saturday, the Arnrstice Bay par
ade at ten o’clock in the morning, the
big game with W. S. C. on Hayward Field
at 2:30, and last but not least the
'Homecoming dances, one for the under
classmen in the armonry, the other for
guests and upperelassmen in the Woman’s
building.
Dr. John Straub has written a letter
to all old graduates in “Old Oregon”
that expresses his love for all those whom
he calls “his students.” For a week
before “Old Oregon” went to press
Bean Straub had been ill. But this did
not keep him from sending his message
as he dictated a letter at his home and
it was published. At the side of his let
ter is a large picture of “The Pioneer”
and standing in front is the Bean.
A part of Bean Straub’s greeting is as
follows: “T want to see you boys and
girls from the classes of '78 to ’90 at
Homecoming, November 11. T want to
see you once more, because I may not
have many more years with you. If you
shouldn’t come and T should die and go
to heaven, as T expect to, T might never
'see yon again. To all you old students of
those early years, graduates or not, come
back for Homecoming. Tf at that time
1 am unable to say your name and give
your standing where you came from,
then T’ll pay vmr expenses back home.”
Bean Straub Hates fur:her in his letter.
“I shall feel it a personal compliment
that you come not onlv to see the old
places and the great game, but that you
come to see vour old teacher and friend.
Affectionately yours, (signed) John
Straub. ’ ’
