Oregon Daily Emerald VOLUME XXIV. UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, EUGENE, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 9, 1922 NUMBER 32 STUDENTS TOM TO HEAR REPORT * OF HOMECOMING Washington Envoy To Receive Credentials at Assembly in Woman’s Building ABBOTT TO MAKE REPORT Grads Must Be Made to Feel at Home When They Come Back to Campus The entire student body and the fac ulty 'will gather in the women’s gym nasium in the Woman’s building, this morning at eleven o’clock to bid Ore gon ’^ambassador, Richard Shore Smith, god-speed on his journey to the Uni versity of Washington where he will represent the University at the Wash ington Hemecoming. In addition to the presentation of the credentials and greetings to Smith, Leith Abbott, general chairman of the Homecoming committee, will make a general report on the work accomplish ed by the various committees and at the same time point out to the students the particular ways by which they can aid in making the occasion a success. “The-’Hello’ cannot be stressed too greatly,” said Abbott in reference to Oregon’s democratic tradition, especial ly since there will be a great number of visitors many of whom will have come with the intention of becoming an adopted son of the institution. The old grads should be made to feel at home as well as the visitors, and they will if they are greeted by the ‘Hello’ as they were in days of yore. The grads and former students will be re cognized by a lemon-yellow cardboard tag which they will wear, while the visitors will be supplied with some other form of insignia. Open Houses Requested Many of the eld grads and former students, who belonged to no organiza tion during their college career, have complained that in the past they have had no place to go and that the campus luncheon afforded them the only time to talk over old times with their class mates and acquaintances that they re ceived during their stay on the cam pus. In order that this may be avoided this year, Abbott requests that each organization should arrange to hold open house for these men and women so that they will be able to talk over old times with their fellow students. In regard to the Armistice day par ade the entire student body, with the exception of the ex-service men on the campus who will meet at the armory, will assemble in a body at the corner of 11th and Alder streets at 10 o’clock and from there they -will join in the parade, which will not last more than a half an hour. All of the senior women will be requested to see that the women from their organizations turn out 100 per cent for the parade. Abbott declared that a 100 per cent participation on the part of the stu dents is absolutely necessary. Judge King Dykeman, ambassador of the University of Washington, was presented with his credentials by A. R. Hilen, president of the Washington Alumni association, in the Sylvan the ater on the Washington campus, Fri day. Those who participated in the ceremony were Dean John T. Condon, acting president of the University; Professor Edmond S. Meany; J. E. Gould, dean of men; Robert Little, president of the associated students; Enoch Bagshaw, football coach; Bob Ingram, football captain; Darwin Meis nest, graduate manager. Miss Celeste Moll, escorted by a committee of co els, presented Ambassador Dykeman with a letter of weleome to the under (Continued on page two.) Oregon Envoy Goes to Washington Today ROBERT S. SMITH CAMPUS LUNCH TO BE IN BOTH MEN’S CYMNS Good Menu Announced by Fred Lorenz, Chairman Plans have been practically comple ted for the ^ampus luncheon to be serv ed Saturday, from 11:30 until 1, in the two men’s gymnasiums. Fred Lorenz has assumed active charge of the work of the committee, in the absence of Bernice Altstock, and has for his assis tants Mary Clerin, in charge of pre paration of sandwiches; Ed Tapfer, ar rangement of tables and chairs and head of the clean-up committee; Hal Simpson, business manager, and Inez King, head of the serving committee. Since the game starts promptly at 2 o ’clock Saturday afternoon, it was deemed advisable by the committee to start serving at 11:30 in place of 12 o ’clock as formerly, and close the doors at one. This will enable those in charge of the luncheon to complete their work, and still get to the game in time. In order to handle the large crowd of students and guests, arrangements have been made for the use of the two gymnasiums. The food will be served from four long tables. The indoor gymnasium will be reserved for the old grads, visitors and upperclassmen, while the freshmen and sophomores will occupy the outdoor gym. “We hope that every student will come to the luncheon,” said Lorenz. “Everyone connected with the Univer j sity is expected, and there will be lots | of food—good food.” The menu at present includes sliced ! cold pork and veal, hot rolls (such as ' Mrs. Datson has made in the Friendly I Hall kitchens) with lots of butter, | creamed potatoes, fruit salad, coffee | (with real cream) and fat, sugary ! doughnuts (of the kind sold by Theta , Sigma Phi on the campus recently). No luncheons will be served in the living organizations Saturday noon, since all students will be fed in the two gym nasiums. “We are asking,” said Mr. Lorenz, [ “that everyone, especially the under i graduates notice the signs and follow their advice. Receptacles will be pro vided for cups and silverware, and we are urging that the students see that each is returned to the proper place. Also, in order that the ‘old grads’ may have time to stop and chat, it is expect ed that underclassmen will not ‘ con gregate ’ in the gyms after they have finished their luncheon.” Four girls from each house are ask ed to assist with the serving Saturday. The following have been appointed by Inez King, in charge of serving, to see that their house furnishes its proper quota: Alpha Chi Omega, Margaret Jackson; Alpha Sigma, Margaret Sey mour; Alpha Delta Pi, Rosalia Keber; Alpha Phi, Chloe Thompson; Alpha Xi (Continued on page three.) Homecoming Issue of Lemmy Appears to Greet Old Grads Today Lemmy is out in all his glory and Homecoming spiritl For weeks Doc Braddock and his corps of associ ates have spent their energies in the culmination of a 38 page issue that bids fair to excel all others that have gone before, in wit, originality, and art work. The cover, by “Stu” Biles, who has recently been appointed art editor in place of Owen Callaway, is suggestive of the spirit of Homecoming, and done W in attractive colors. Several new art " ists have been added to the art staff, and have contribued a number of art pieces to the Homecoming issue. A full-page cartoon is contributed by flaude Snow, and another by “Stu” Biles. Paul Corey has several snappy cartoons. “Carmine” by Ted Osborn, is one of the brainiest and wittiest hits of the season. There are a larger number of jokes than ever, many of them contributed by Gus Evans. Two solid pages of Lemmy’s Home coming issue are devoted to editorials, dealing with Homecoming and “cake eaters,” and featuring the Ten Million Dollar campaign. Lemmy will be on sale at the Co-op until sold out. Copies will also be on sale at the game Saturday, and at stands about town. Individual copies will be delivered to the various houses of residence. If the old grads and guests are to be supplied, purchasers must speak early, as there is a limited supply, and Lemmy is much in demand for this is his only Homecoming issue of the year. KELL LEADER MAY STUDENT COUCIL Proposal Favored by Group Is; to Come Up at Meeting on December 7 COMMITTEES ARE NAMED Campus Is Urged to Welcome Grads and Visitors in Coming Week-End A resolution to make the yell leader a member of the student council by t amending Article 4, Section 2 of the student constitution was passed at the regular meeting of the student council last night and will be brought before the students at the next meeting of the A. S. U. O., December 7. The only change will be to make the constitution read “fifteen members” instead of “fourteen” and to insert the position of yell leader in the list of officers who are members of the council. The proposed amendment will be read at the student body meeting De cember 7. According to the constitu tion it must be published in the Emer- j aid within one week and voted on with in one week later. To carry two thirds , of the votes cast must be favorable to the amendment, and at least three hun dred' votes must be cast. It will be necessary to hold a special election to vote on the measure. Place on Ballot Changed It was decided to' cooperate with the movement to make the yell lead er’s position of greater importance and prestige by placing name on the of ficial ballot just before the senior men on the student council. The movement | has grown out of the lack of incentive for people to work toward the yell lead- i er's position. The recommendation of the drives | committee that the Student Friendship Fund committee be allowed to put on a campaign on the campus December 7 was approved. The drive will be lim ited to one day and booths will bo placed in front of the library and at me x. iyl. a. ana x. w. v^. a., out the idea has been expressed that gifts j are a purely voluntary matter The I promoters of the drive will bring Ste-1 phen I. Miller, dean of the School of Business Administration here on that day to address the students for a short time at the assembly. Ralph Spearow, is chairman of the committee. Committees Announced The personnel of three student com mittees for the year has been announ ced by John MacGregor, A. S. U. O. president as follows: Drive committee, Ralph Spearow, chairman, Lynden Mv- [ ers, Lois Pixley, Margaret Beatie, Dor-! othy McKee, Randolph Kuhn, Aulis j Anderson, Luella Hausler, Jim Baker, Bruce McConnell, and Glen Walkley. The student health committee will be composed of George Gochnour, Wini-! fred Graham, and Edwin Kelley, and the vespers committee of Don Zimmer-1 man, Marion Lawrence, and Fred Dunn. In the discussion of Homecoming plans it was urged that students be reminded that alumni and visitors like to hear the “hello.” OREGON CLUB IS GROWING Membership Larger Than Ever; Teams Well Up in Athletics The Oregon club is larger and strong er this year than ever before. It is well represented in all activities, and' plans for the year are progressing nice-j lv. The cVb is an organization of non-fraternity~*nen to get its members out for activitieBTsjielp them get ac-; quainted and to better the University generally. The Oregon club basketball team leads in its division of the do-nut bas ketball league and has four out of five: men on the varsity cross-country team, j in prior years the club has taken prom inent part in other athletics. The club collects small dues from its members and gives a dance each year to finance its activities, such as basket ball, baseball and track. This years of- j fleers are Glenn Walkley, president; j Emil Ghio, vice-president, and John Homewood, secretary-treasurer. DIRECTORY PLANNED A plan to publish a student directory j is on foot and action concerning its progress will be made known within the ( next week. There has been such a de mand for a directory of this nature not only for the students but also for the business concerns of Eugene that it has been thought wise to refer the matter to the publications committee of the student body for consideration at I an early date. PfflE MATERIAL IGNITED DURING EULTJHK! Blaze Quickly Extinguished Afteiv Phi Delts Call Out Fighters GANGS FOR WORK NAMED Guards Will Be on Skinner’s to Prevent Further Painting of “0” But for a timely alarm given by those living nearby, material which had been gathered by the frosli for the Homecoming bonfire would have been prematurely burned, at an early hour yesterday morning. TUe alarm, which was sounded at 3:S0 a. m., quickly brought a number of freshmen from various living organizations to the scene who succeeded in extinguishing the blaze. The Eugene fire department also made a run to the rubbish heap, but when they arrived the fire was al ready under control. Kerosene had been used to start the : fire, and as yet it is not known who the perpetrators of the act are. Early the same morning, it was also discovered that the “O” atop of Skin ner’s butte had been treated to a coat of black paint; bu it was not long be fore a party of freshmen restored the Oregon symble to its natural color. “O” Will Be Guarded However, it is thought that the acts will not occur again, as from now on until after Homecoming both the bon fire and the “O” will be closely guard ed by members of the class of ’26, who will work in groups of six on four hour shifts. A four-foot, circular saw will also be hung in the vicinity .of the bonfire to be used as an alarm in the event of necessity. Four trucks will be used to gather bonfire material this afternoon, when the actual work on the pyre will begin. Also, every freshman will be required to put in a certain number of hours of work. r ur me ueueiiL ux me xrtrsnmeii whu do not already know under whom they are to work, the following lists of the committe-heads and their “gangs” are given.

SOUTH SEA QUEEN COMESINCOGNITO IDENTITY TO BE KEPT SEOBET UNTIL SATURDAY NIGHT Visitor to Be at Homecoming Dance With Music, Maidens, Parrot* and Punch from Tropics Hokurallilowapns is approaching Eu-1 gone! According t# yesterday’s Emer-1 aid, her Tahitian majesty has put feet on these United States after her far journey from sea-breezed, palm beach ed Tahiti, of the South Sea isles. It is now expected that her dusky highness will take private residence in cognito in this city. No one will meet appesfrance as the motif and feature her until the evening of her auspicious of the Homecoming dance next Satur day night in the Armory. Hot nights in the South Sea isles! Tahitian frolics of dusky queens and jungle men! Flocks of brilliant, gar rulous parrots of sheening plume! Nec tarcus, tangv, pineapple punch served by Ya-Ya girls! Rythmic island music vended by Hob Stewart’s Tahitian players from a palm grove, where the juicy cocoanuts fall and boom the big bass drum in time! All this will sur round Hokutnllilowapus during her tropical swayings noxt Saturday eve. This bit of Tahitian royalty was procured especially for the Homecom ing dance by Ed Bohlman, decorator and feature master, in order to intro luce to Oregon the present fad of the far East—the South Sea island influ ence, Gilda -Grey, of Broadway, is the .•hief exponent in the East of the un conventional Tahitian dances. How ever, Hokum! lilowapus is reputed to bo ao slouch. 1 GREGORY’S NEW BOOK ON MEASUREMENTS OUT Advanced Classes Furnish Ex periments for Work Dr. C. A. Gregory, of the school of education, lias recently had a book pub lished by D. Appleton and company, New York, entitled, “Fundamentals of Educational Measurements with the Elements of Statistical Method.” Some of the studies reported in the book are experiments made Dy i»r. uregorys ad vanced classes dealing with the meas ure of the materials of instruction are on studies made on the reading vocabu lary of third grade children and on American histories used in the state of Oregon. The book deals with the fundamen tal problems of school achievemnt, pri marily, with the measurements of in telligence. The first of the book takes up reasons why measurements are nec essary and is followed by a hundred pages on problems incident to measur ing intelligence, the idoa being to give a risime of the work that has been done in attempts at measuring intelli gence The problems that confronted Binet and Others in attempting to meas ure intelligence are also discussed and their works listed. The next three chapters deni with the measure of school achievement, taking up the fundamental problems of test making and pointing out their possibil ities and limitations. One chapter is devoted to the measurements of educa tional processes and products in five fields of school work, namely: Measure ment of materials of instruction; meas urements of the physical growth of school children, measurements of money in the cost of education, measurements of school buildings, and measurement of retardation, acceleration and elim ination. These five fields were briefly discussed in a chapter with the idea of showing that the entire field of quan titative studies in education might be in his way divisioned. The last of the book deals with statistical methods ap plied to education. DR. LANDSBURY TO SPEAK Portland Symphony Orchestra Lectures to Be Given by lilusic Faculty It is a custom of the Portland Sym phony orchestra to precede their con certs by explanatory lectures of the program to be given, and this year these lectures will be given by members of the faculty of the school of music. The first lecture of this season is to be delivered Friday evening, November 10, in Sherman, Clay & Co. hall by Dr. John J. Landsbury, dean of the school of music, and will be a critical explan ation of Dvorak’s New World 8ym phony and the ballet music from De libes’ “Bylvia.” The next two lectures will be given by Mrs. Anna Landsbury Beck and David Campbell. The lectures are intended, primarily, to acquaint people with the structure of music, especially that given by the symphony orchestra in their programs, but other points of interest are covered as well. PLEDGING ANNOUNCED Chi Psi anonunces the pledging of Leon Byrne. vinsiTt is n FOR CRID BUTTLE; PLAYERS IN SHAPE Visitors Reported Strong in Spite of Defeat Given in the South CRITICAL TIME FOR SQUAD Oregon Not Strong in Punting Department; Johnson Is on Sick List Tho Washington State Cougars, who will arrive here tomorrow for their game with the Varsity, are in good con dition despite the fact that they plnyed at Berkeley last Saturday, and will come to Eugene with the object of beat ing the Lemon-Yellow in order to atono in part for the lacing they took from California. The northern team is a groat deal stronger than the score of their south ern jaunt would indicate, says Coach Huntington, as their regular quarter back, Ilickey, was knocked out in the first period of piny, and the team fought through the remainder of the game with a second string quarter at the helm. This slowed up their attack a great deal, and with Hickey back in the lineup for the game hero this week, they will bo a great deal stronger on tho ofTenso than in the game at Berke ley. Cougars Good Punters A department in which W. S. C. will no doubt excel will be in punting, for with Latham unable to kick, Chappy is to handle the punting and although he averages well around 35 or 40 yards he is unable to got ont the 50 yard spirals that Hunk regularly doos. The Varsity will have the advantage of having laid off last woek for a rest, while the Cougars were on tho hardest trip of their schedule, but this will not give Oregon as much as it seems, for the Washington State team got back to Cullman early this week, and have been putting in late hours of drill in special preparation for the Oregon contest. This game is the critical ono of the Varsity schedule, for if they can wal lop W. 8. C. they are still very much in the running for conference honors, while if W. 8. C. wills, it will put Ore gon definitely out of the running since the Cougars lost to the University of Washington in their annual set-to. Team in Good Shape The team took only a light workout last night and will do the same f<m the remaining practices, as they all are in good shape at present, and Coach Huntington is taking no risks of injur ing any more of his mainstays by scrimmage work. Ward Johnson, whose ankle was twisted in the Idaho gumo, is now the only man on the sick-list, as his ankle was sprained again in practice early this week, and apparently will not re cover in time for him to get into the lineup against the Cougars. The entire team is in tho best of con dition they have been in this season, anil have been showing lots of pep and enthusiasm in their practices this week. It looks as if the game Saturday will end in an Oregon victory if wo are to get our share of the wins this season. STUDENT’S BROTHER DIES Harold McConnell Learns Yesterday Relative Is Killed in Accident Harold McConnell, a senior majoring in the department of geology, yester day afternoon recoived a telegram from his home in Torpedo, Pa., saying that his brother had been killed in an ac cident. McConnell, along with Homer Wise, also a major in geology was scheduled to entertain the campus populace just before the assembly hour this morning with a public initiation stunt. The two men were to cook flapjacks over a camp ftre on Kincaid field. This initia tion has been indefinitely postponed. It is not known whether or not Mc Connell will go Kast now. He has been in the West since being discharged from the service, having served as a first lieutenant in the 13th Division. MEDICAL FACULTY COMING Portland Professors and Wives Guests of Science Club Over Week-End Members of the Portland School of Medicine faculty and their wives will be on the campus during Homecoming week end as guests of the Science club. It is expected that there will be about • twelve membra of the faculty in the , group. An informal dinner has been planned for Friday night and an inspection of the campus after the game on Saturday.
