Loose Union With Americans
Regarded as Solution
of Problem
SLIDE PROGRAM IS GIVEN
Styles, Customs, Industry and
Architecture Screened
At Assembly
“The majority of the Filipinos want
their independence, but they want it
with some form of American protection.
The interests of both the Philippines
and America will be best served if we
keep on in some sort of loose union, un
less the Filipinos really do not want
it.” This was the opinion expressed
by Dr. Warren D. Smith, recently re
turned from the Philippine islands, in
his address before the student body in
Villard on Thursday morning.
“The Philippines have asked for the
establishment of a republic every year
since inauguration of the assembly,”
said Dr. Smith. “The desire of the
Filipino for independence is entirely
legitimate, but for his sake as well as
for ours, some sort of loose union should
be maintained.”
Islands Position Important
Dr. Smith pointed out the strategic
position occupied by the islands and the
importance of that fact to them in
maintaining their independence. He
said, “The Philippine islands lie across
the great waterway between the China
sea and the Atlantic ocean, across
which the bulk of the world’s commerce
from the Occident to the Orient passes.
In considering this we have responsi
bilities which we cannot evade.”
The importance of the Orient in the
world affairs was another point stress
ed by the speaker. “There is a rising
tide of color covering the Orient,” he
said, “and whether this will be a tide
of hate or one of friendship depends
on you. If we go wrong, or the Orient
goes wrong in this matter, the entire
world goes wrong.”
Island Life Shown
Dr. Smith’s stereopticon views of the
islands and their people lent color to his
lecture. He showed pictures of the peo
ple working in the various national in
dustries; natives floating down river on
cocoanut rafts, working in sugar mills,
weaving cloth or peeling hemp bark.
There were busy street scenes and stret
ches of lonely beach; placid canals flow
ing between rows of palms; live vol
canoes; eocoanut groves; and native
belles in holiday dress with hair sur
prisingly Americanized. In the collec
tion were several pictures taken in and
about Manila, among them one of the
wall that surrounds the city, over which
the American soldiers elimbed when
they captured the town during the
Spanish-Ameriean war.
Some of the principal buildings of the
University of the Philippines were
shown by Dr. Smith, He spoke of the
progress of the school, which has achiev
ed an enrollment of 4,000 students in a
few years time.
Hallowe’en in Philippines
In showing a picture of a Philippine
graveyard, Dr. Smith made a timely
comment on the wav in which the na
tives spend their Hallowe’en. “The
Filipinos do not steal door mats or
fences or pull door bells out by the
roots,” he said. “On the night of Hal
lowe’en the entire family repairs to
the graveyard with flowers and candles
and spends the night there with other '
families. The whole graveyard is light
ed up and the occasion is quite a fes-1
tive one.”
LAKE STUDENTS
ORGANIZE CLUB
DONOE OF DALY FUND HONOEED
BY BENEFICIARIES
Ten Members Belong; Emily Houston Is
Named President; All Have Lived
in Same County
A Daly club, named in honor of Dr.
Bernard Daly, who left more than a mil
Jion dollars to provide higher education
for the high school graduates of Lake
county, has been formed on the Univer
sity campus.
Emily Houston of Warner Lake is pres
ident; Everett Ogle of Lakeview vice
president, and Vivian Harper of Paisley
secretary. The other active members are
Cornelia Robertson and Ralph Edmiston,
both of Lakeview; Thomas Holder of
Paisley, and Theresa Roninett of Sum
(mer Lake. The other members not bene
ficiaries of the Daly fnnd are William
Owsley of Silver Lake, Grace Sullivan,
a graduate of Lakeview High school,
whose home in in Alberta, and Clarence
Toole of Portland, who has spent the
greater part of the last two years in
Lakeview.
Theresa Robinett is a junior and Grace
Sullivan a sophomore, both in physical
education; Emily Houston a sophomore
in journalism; William Owsley a sopho
more in banking; Everett Ogle and Clar
ence Toole, both freshmen in business
Administration; Vivian Harper, a fresh
man in English literature, and Cornelia
Robertson, Ralph Edmiston and Thomas
Holder freshmen in the medical depart
ment.
A dinner was given Sunday by the
club in honor of Misses Amy Ogle and
Gladys Snider, who are attending school
at the Oregon normal, and Dalmar Reeder
and Earl Farr, attending the Oregon
Agricultural college.
ART STUDENTS WILL
DECORATE NEW HOME
Sculpture, Normal Arts and
Museum to Be Housed
The new art building, whose frame
work is now beginning to go up, will
house the departments of sculpture and
normal arts and the University museum,
according to Ellis P. Lawrence, dean
of the school of architecture. All in
terior embellishments will be the work
of students in these departments.
The edifice itself will be arranged
around a court in order to facilitate
passnig from one section to another,
and to keep the several departments in
close touch with each other. It will con
sist of but one story, except the central
portion, where a second floor will be
added to accommodate three classrooms.
That section of the new building set
aside for sculpture will contain among
other things three studios, a casting
room, and a room for basketry and
weaving. The normal arts department
will have two studios and rooms for
home decorating, cement tile work and
dyeing.
An interesting reature or the art
building is that all the interior decor
ations will be the product of the stu
dents of the several departments. These
decorations will be made up of the very
best the students can produce and will
include paintings, carvings, tile and
other types of interior decorating. It is
thought this plan will encourage in
dividuality and initiative on the part
of the students, and will be an incentive
to higher standards.
The hall set aside for the museum will
be 28 x 48 feet. Eealizing that fire may
destroy thousands of dollars worth of
valuable collections as well as consume
priceless articles that can never be re
placed, the architects have made the
museum safe from fire. “This museum
will be absolutely fire proof,” said Dean
Lawrence.

Highbrow Element Is Barred
From Hash Party; Threat Made
The Bar Room Bust!
The Bar—(borrowed), a rail, craeked
mirror, bartender, v
The Room—the Hendricks hall dining
room.
The Bust—The Senior class, in wild
west attire, a good orchestra, lots of
beer (of the root variety), pretzels and
noise. Another of the annual events
which come with the Annual Snior Leap
Week. The bust begins around eight
(which means anytime from eight o’
clock on) and closes when the last dan-'
eer retires.
“Anybody gets by us except those of \
a highbrow nature,” declared the sen
iors of Alpha Phi and Alpha Chi Omega,
when asked the terrible details of the
reception they intend to give to mem
bers of the class of ’23 at the Alpha Phi>
house from four to six this afternoon.
(Friday).
Highbrow being a term of many in
terpretations, they wish to explain that
it means: 1. Persons who do not say
“hello” on the campus. None of these
are likely to be found in the senior
class. 2. Persons given to studying at
all possible and impossible times. 3.
Men who go to busts wearing collars
and ties, and girls who go in anything
but school clothes.
All such persons, according to the
Alpha Phis and Alpha Chis, need not
try to penetrate to the charmed inner
circle where music is circulating and
the tasteful interior decorations consist
of hot hamburger sandwiches and coffee.
Instead, they will be invited to go out
to the back yard, where a plank has
been arranged into the 1E11 Bace. They
will be asked to walk it.
All seniors not classed as highbrow,
however, have been eordially invited to

Needs of University Will Be
Discussed in Several
Important Meetings
ALUMNI REUNION PLANNED
President Campbell, Robbins
Huntington and Shields
Listed as Speakers
During the next few days Portland
will be the center of the activities in
connection with the $10,000,000 endow
ment fund campaign, and at the same
time, of the 1922 Homecoming. The
present plans for the Portland drive in
clude addresses by President Campbell,
Dean Bobbins, Coach “Shy” Hunting
ton, Captain “Tiny” Shields, and many
of the old grads, an alumni reunion, and
the broadcasting of addresses and songs
by the University glee club from the
Journal radio station.
President Campbell and Dean Bob
bins of the school of business adminis
tration, will outline the University en
dowment campaign in addresses before
the City club at a luncheon to be held
at noon today. President Campbell’s
address will deal with the general needs
of the University, while Dean Bobbins
will talk on the special needs of the
school of business administration.
Alumni Will Meet
President Campbell, “Shy” Hunting
ton and “Tiny” Shields, will be the
principal speakers at the reunion of
the Multnomah county- alumni, to be
held in the Multnomah hotel Saturday
noon. In addition to talks on the en
dowment campaign, speeches will be
made explaining the plans for homecom
ing in order to arouse interest among
the old grads in the annual event.
•During tli course of the luncheon, of
ficers will be elected by the Portland
alumni for the coming year. The in
cumbent officers are Mrs. Caroline Un
ander, president and F. Harold Young,
secretary. Arrangements for the lun
cheon are being made by Secretary
Young, who is at the present time con
nected with the editorial staff of the
Oregon Voter.
Portland Alumni Approve
According to letters being received
by Miss Grace Edgington, alumni secre
tary, Portland alumni are expressing
their enthusiastic support of the Uni
versity endowment campaign. “The en
dowment campaign, ‘$10,000,000 in ten
years, ’ has a bigger promise for the
University than any movement for its
advancement thus far inaugurated,”
wrote Homer D. Angell, ’00, a Portland
attorney. “The millage, as the needs of
the University increase, will of neces
sity be found insufficient to meet the
ever growing requirements of the Uni
versity. State appropriations have al
ways lagged behind its urgent needs.
The University cannot close its doors
to the lengthening line of students. To
provide for them increased budgets are
necessary.”
“Private subscriptions is the only
means by which L'ue emergency can be
met, and an intensified .campaign ex
tending over a term of years, making
known to the people of the state the
ever-increasing needs of the University
with the attended opportunities for ser
vice and the lack of funds with which
to meet the problem, should result in
the raising of the endowment fund
required,” said Mr. Angell in conclu
sion.
Y. W. C. A. TO RAISE $1400
Oregon Club Girls Will Complete Drive
Collection Taken by Classes
The Y. W. C. A. canvass for funds
among girls who are not affiliated with
campus organizations, began Wednes
day evening and will continue until the
desired quota is secured, according to
Dorothy Cushman, who is in charge of
the drive. It is hoped that at least $450
will be raised by the Oregon club girls
which will complete the $1400 goal.
The work of collection has been di
vided among thirty girls, representing
the different classes. The freshmen will
be canvassed by Margaret Swan; soph
omores by Louise Leonard; juniors by
Vera Laehner, and seniors by Betty
Skaggs.
COLD EPIDEMIC ABATED
Health service physicians believe that
the epidemic of colds has now abated.
Many patients are still coming to the
dispensary for treatment, but their con
dition has greatly improved and many
others have recovered. The si* pa
tients at the infirmary are “all doing
fine,” says Miss Orpha Clause, the nurse
in charge
RADIO WILL CALL
CLIN OF OREGON
i FOR HOMECOMING
President Campbell to Speak
Into Magnavox, Summoning
Grads to Return
PARADE WILL BE FEATURED
Ralf Couch Reminds Students
All Are Expected to
Turn Out in Force
The Oregon Glee club quartet will
slug tonight over the Oregon Daily
Journal radio to the people of the state.
To every city, and town and lonely
farmhouse in the state, where there is
a radio, and where there might be an
Oregon grad, the call of old Oregon
songs will be sent crackling from the
broadcasting station.
After the program by the quartet,
President Campbell will speak into the
magnavox, reminding his hearers of the
annual University calendar event—
Homecoming. The men who will sing
with John Stark Evans are Roy Bry
son, Maurice Eben, and Glen Morrow.
Another feature of this Homecoming
according to the committee, is the Arm
istice day parade, since that peace day
celebration has been incorporated in the
Homcoming program this year. Ralf
Couch is chairman of the parade.
“I wish,” says Couch, “that the stu
dents would turn out in full force for
this parade. It is to be one of the big
events of the entire celebration. The
parade will start at 10:30 from the ar
mory, and will go down Willamette to
Eleventh street, according to present
plans.
Students Take Part
“The parade wiffbe divided into sec
tions, Ane for the American Legion, one
for the University R. O. T. C\, one for
the military band, one for the town or
ganizations and townspeople, and one
for the University students. That is
the tentative schedule. The committee
is cooperating with the American Le
gion, who is sponsoring the parade,
and we want the entire student body,
R. O. T. C., upperclassmen, University j
women, visitors, and alumni to fall in j
the line of march. We hope that every
organization on the campus will see that
its members turn out for this parade.”
As another means of arousing the at
tention and interest of the people of
Portland to the Oregon Homecoming
celebration, Robert Kuykendall, presi
dent of the alurnni association, who was
on the campus yesterday, arranging for
speakers at th- various events, told of
the plans which are now in readiness
among the Portland “alums” for a mon
ster rally to take the form of a din
ner, where the glee club quartet will
sing, and speeches will be made by Pres
ident Campbell, “Shy” Huntington,
“Tiny” Shields, and prominent mem
bers of the Portland alumni.
The glee quartet during their stay I
in Portland, will sing at the meeting
of the City club this noon.
R. 0. T. C. BAND WILL
PLAY AT FROSH GAME
Men to Appear in Uniforms; Promise
Pep Inspiring Selection During
Entire Contest
The R. O. T. C. band, for the first
time in the history of the military de
partment, will turn out for a freshman
football game Saturday afternoon. Pep
inspiring selections will be rendered
during the entire contest, whch will in
volve the O. A. C. rooks and the frosli
in the hardest yearling battle of the
year.
The band is now completely outfitted
in their new uniforms, and every mem
ber is turning out regularly for practice,
says Captain Lewis, of the military de
partment. This esprit de corps is re
sponsible in a large measure for the de
gree of excellence the band has attained
in the short time it was organized, says
Bob Stewart, leader.
The organization will also be on hand
for all other athletic events of the year,
as well as rallies and other student
body affairs.
STUDENT BODY DANCE TONIGHT
The student body en masse will tread
the cornmeal on the floor of the 'wo
men’s gymnasium in the Woman’s
building this, Friday, evening, begin
ning promptly at 8 and one half o’clock,
according to an announcement by com
mittee chairman Pat Irelan of the stu
dent body dance committee. There will
be no decorations because those will be
displayed lavishly at the Homecoming
prom a week later and no punch because
the dancor-dancees are supposed to sup
ply that, according to the committee.
NEW STRUCTURE
TO BE ERECTED
ZOOLOGY LABORATORY WILL BE
BUILT AT ONCE
Research Work in Department Is to Be
Carried on; Cost of Edifice
Estimated at $3000
Erection of a new structure for zool
ogy research work was decided on yester
, day by the building committee of the
board of regents. The structure, a one
storv frame building to bo erected at an
estimated cost of $3,000, is to be lo
cated at the north end of the outdoor
gymnasium between Onyx street and the
alley.
Scientific equipment for the research
equipment has not yet been decided on,
according to Or. Harry R. Yocoin, of the
zoology department. It is probable that
the edifice will be divided into several
rooms and individual resarch work along
definite lines will he done in each. There
has been a great need for such research
laboratories in connection with the zool
ology department for many years. Prob
lems already started by students in the
department can not be carried on until
the new building is completed and equip
ped for research work.
H. M. Fisher, superintendent of
grounds, and Hr. H. B. Torrov, head of
the department of zoology, yesterdny af
ternoon looked over the site for the new
building and definitely decided on the
location. According to Mr. Fisher, con
struction work on the zoology laboratory
will begin at once.
The building committee of the board of
regents first considered the building of
the laboratory at the meeting in Presi
dent Campbell's office Wednesday even
ing, but the decision to build was not
reached until yesterday. The building
permit was taken out yesterday, and
the cost was given at $3,000.
MUSICIANS ON CAMPUS
WILL SING OVER STATE
Concerts Will Be Given As
Extension Service
A departure new to music schools in
the west lias been made by the school of
music on the campus for it is to supply
the extension division with a group of j
musicians from its advanced students
who will give concerts throughout the
state.
Dr. John Landsbury, dean of the
school of music, and Alfred Powers,
director of the extension division, have
been discussing the advisability of such
a group for some time and it was final
ly dedided that it would be a- success
ful venture and would bo worth trying.
“The whole idea,” said Dr. Lands
bury, “is one of service, and wo have
students in our departments who can do
this work. There is a certain demand
for musicions in small towns, and farm
ing districts, and since these people are
not always able to pay commercial art
ists to come to them, it was thought
that the groups from the University I
could be sent out when the occasion '
arises. It is probable that the groups j
will first be sent to towns within the
immediate vicinity of Eugene, and will
take longer trips later.”
The groups are to consist usually of
three people, voice, piano and violin,
with an occasional quartette, and an
attempt will be made to have compre
hensive programs given. The groups
will also make alternate tours so that
the work will be evenly divided. The
faculty of the school of music will Mso
give their services when it is possible,
but no definite plans can yet bn made
by them, since each request will have
to be separately considered because of
possible conflicts with their work and
Other engagements.

BILL SPEMI BACK
IN LINE-UP FOB
TILT WITH W.S.C.
’Secret Practice on Hayward
Features Daily Workouts
For Homecoming Game
MOE SAX' IS ASSISTING
Opposing Scrimmage Squad Is
Headed by Former Cougar
Backfield Man
Absolute secrecy is to be observed
in all Varsity practices from now on,
at least till after the Washington State
j game, says the coaching staff, and all
observers are warned away, as begin
ning tonight there will be no one al
lowed on the field but men in football
uniforms.
The hopes of the Varsity wero rais
ed a great deal by the return last night
of Bill Spear to active practice, Bill
[having been held from the field for the
last week because of injuries and stud
ios. His return greatly strengthens the
line as he is a natural end, both in build
and inclination. If he had been in the
Idaho game he would no doubt have
been heard from.
Hunk Out for Practice
Hunk Latham, who had his knee
twisted two weeks hgo in scrimmage
is out running signals once more but
has to wear a special knee protector in
order that it will not be injured again.
Dutch French, who had the ligaments
torn in his ankle early this fall, and has
been going on crutches since college
opened, was also out in a suit again
last evening.
Dutch was the big backfield star of
the Frosh team last year and Hunting
ton was counting strongly on him to
produce this season, but the injury to
his leg will keep him out of active play
ing. He can be expected to give some
strong competition next year though.
Sax Leads Opposition
In the scrimmage playing last night,
the second team under tllo leadership
of Moe Sax, former Cougar star back
tield man, gave the Varsity some real
competition.
The Varsity line is something to be
proud of with Prink Callison working
at his old center position, the two
Shields ns guurds, Vender Alio and Mc
Keown as tackles and Brown and Spear
as ends. This outfit, with each man a
big one, should give any of the coast
linos something to worry about, espe
cially on defensive, as nearly all of
them have had at least one years ex
perience, while Captain Shields, Brown
anil Callison are all two letter men.
Backfield Being Bevamped
The backfield is the part of the team
right now on which the coaches are
spending most of their time, as in the
games played so far the backs have
shown very little ability to run real in
terference, or buck the lino for con
sistent yardage. In the Idaho game
Chapman was the only man that gain
ed any yardage to speak of, and the
interference of the entire backfield was
very poor.
The biggest problem the coaches have
had to face so far this season has been
that of providing suitable substitutes
to take the places of the first string
men who have been injured. At pre
sent this seems to be a thing of the past
for with Burton, Brown, Tergesou, Gram
and .Jordan to go into the backfield, and
Bracher, Bylcr, Dick Reed, or Bill John
son to step into line positions they
should have little trouble in filling
places even if the first string men are
injured.
Street-Car Tactics Suggested
In Scramble for Library Seats
The wily Seiler sadly shakes his
shapely sombrero and says that the li
brary ain’t what is once was, the Jun
ior remembers better days, and even the
Sophomore can, with a little mental ef
fort, recall a time when it was not
necessary to purchase reserved seat tic
kets more than two days ahead. But
with the advent of Dean Straub’s new
bumper crop of freshmen all is changed.
The addition of the cunning little desks
in the smaller room upstairs has not
done much to relieve the situation and
the long benches arranged a la observa
tion car outside are always crowded to
fullest capacity. The long tables in the
other room are occupied continuously
from the break of day, and should an
unsuspecting frosh so much as stoop for
a dropped pencil, he may eome up to
find his place taken.
Hliould there, by some strange trick
of life, be a vacant plaee—(this has
happened once or twice, states an ambi
tiouH frosh who has done some research
in the matter)-—it is almost certain that
the book you want will be out, the bor
rower’s name ilegible and the borrow
er strangely missing. To stand conven
iently near the reserve desk until quar
ter of ten to watch for its return is the
only thing to do, and even then much
care should be taken that half a dozen
maddened students lurking in unsuspec
ted hiding places do m.t make a mob as
sault getting away with the assigned
pages.
As in all great crises, however, the
situation has brought the great think
ers to the fore. Among the various
plans suggested has been a row of
straps down the aisles of the room con
taining the cunning little individual
desks. And a well known senior with
