Oregon Daily Emerald UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, EUGENE, SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 12. 1922 ' VOLUME XXIV. NUMBER 34 W.S.C. DEFEATED 13-0 Alums All Know They Can't Miss Homecoming And Will Tell the World You Can’t Beat A Team Which Is Filled With the Original Old Oregon Fight By Jay Dee i '■ Now is the time when all good men back to the campus flock again. They come on foot, on roller skates, in aero planes or under freights. You simply can’t keep grads away on this our great Homecoming day. They leave their wives, desert their kids, put out the cat and grab their lids and start for where Dean Straub as frosh called’ them “Most big and best, b’ gosh.’’ Last night they slept in cozy beds while verdant frosh with tousled heads put up on rugs, in .Morris chairs, de serted tubs and under stairs. They snored in calm, untroubled sleep and never did their conscience cheep be cause as babes they did the same on evenings after such a game. For now the grads have come to know that you shall reap just as you sow and echoes of their past “hellos’’ fill each and all with cheery glows. • • « New faces loom on every hand to those come back to their own laud. The D. Z. ’s have the Beta home (yes, yes the Betas had to roam) and A. C. Bead lias ceased to choke all student hops with “watch my smoke” but grads are filled with keen delight to find the same old winning fight. It is the fight that can’t be beat, the fight that thrives on Oougar meat and here we warn the school next door what this old fight has done before. This love thy neighbor as thyself for one day goes upon the shelf and getting down to bare brass tacks then is the time to use the ax. Fight fel lows, fight, until they squeal and then we ’ll have an Orange peel. ’Twill be their coming home week-end so all your strength and vigor lend to set the Aggies on their dome and make their old grads feel at home. The score may say we met defeat but this old fight just can’t be beat and I, for one, will bet my check they’ll know they had a scrap, by heck! We’ve got the team, we’ve Bill and Shy, and spirit that will never die so make us has beens ’ joy o’er well and up and give the Ag gies h-1! BACHELORDON WINS CUP Bachelordon for the second consecu tive year has wca tl.e prize given to the organization having the best noise making contrivance in the Homecoming parade. The award, announced last night by Leith Abbott at the dance in the Woman’s building, is a loving cup. Theta Sigma Phi elects: Velma Farnham Mabel Gilham Freda Goodrich Rosalia Keber Nancy Wilson WALKLEY, OREGON PLAGES FIRST IN CONFERENCE RUN 0. A. C. Takes Race With Score of 33; U. of 0. is Next in Exciting Contest GRAVES FINISHES SECOND Time of Winner is 16 Minutes, 9 4-5 Seconds; Idaho Men Come in 5th and 6th Glen Walkley, premier Oregon dis tance man, loped across the finish line first, ten yards ahead of his nearest rival. Walker of O. A. C., and Guy Keopp captured third place with a sensational burst of speed, but their teammates were unable to beat out the more-experienced Oregon Aggies and Idaho runners with the result that the first Pacific Coast conference cross country meet held on Hayward field yesterday afternoon went to the Aggies by a margin of nine points over the Lemon Yellow. The final results were: O. A. C. 33, Oregon 42, and Idaho 46, the scoring being graded on the order in which the runners finished, with the honors going to the team which amassed the least number of points. Dual Meet Saturday Walkley in capturing first place covered the three and one-eiglith mile course in the exceptionally fast time of 16 minutes 9 4-5 seconds. He re ceived a great ovation from the root ing section in the bleachers when he entered through the east gate of Hay ward and rounded the lap of the track at a steady pace, keeping a consistent distance ahead of Walker, of the Ag gies who made a strenuous effort to overtake him. Walker’s time for sec ond place was 16 minutes and 11 sec onds. Guy Koepp gave the several thousand spectators assembled for the football game another thrill when he bested out Graves of O. A. C. with a burst of speed in the last twenty yards, after the two had raced neck and neck for practically the entire lap. Koepp’s time was 16 minutes, 35 seconds and Graves’ was two-fifths of a second slower. The Aggie quintet managed to win the meet by dint of taking second, fourth, seventh, eighth and twelfth places, while the three Oregon first year men, Robson, Curry, and Wintlier, crossed the line tenth, thirteenth, and fifteenth, respectively. Penwell was the first Idaho man to finish. He took fifth place a short distance ahead of his teammate Gill, who was sixth. Powers, Williams and Brady the re maining Vandal trio finished ninth, eleventh, and fourteenth in order. Aggies Delay Start The miniature marathon was delayed by the late arrival of the Aggies and did not start until 2 o’clock but was performed in fast time, Winther, last man finishing in less than 20 minutes. The winners took the lead at the onset (Continued on page two.) Sidelights on Cougar-Varsity Game Given by Special Writer By Gwladys Bowen Oregonian Special Writer Cougar meat tastes good. We looked ’em in the eye and we fought, damn it, we fought! We lost count of the guns in the ex citement of the kickoff. But evidently there were enough shells brought along for emergencies, for later on during the game when touch downs were made, a special salute of one gun was fired. • • • The hot dog and peanut venders were the *piee of the afternoon. (I nearly forgot the Lemon Punch sales man who could sell stoves in the mid dle of the Sahara. His principal sel ling argument was that if you didn’t want to read ‘hem you could sit on ’em.; The smail boy with the great green cap offered cougar meat in a biscuit for ten cents. At the last minute the price was lowered, and one could take a hot dog home to the baby for a ruckle, • • • Girls, being particular notice the small things, and various -'remarks were heard at the beginning of the second half to the effect that the faces and hands of the players were snowy white in comparison to their jerseys and moleskins. The Oregon players were really very exclusive with their clean white towels. The poor Cougars were forced to wipe their hands on the referee’s shirt and polish the toes of their shoes on the spot of a team mate’s uniform which was the least muddy. The sea of yellow and green caps in the rooter’s section of the bleachers was most colorful. How the attempt at making a living “O” worked out the rest of the bleachers will never know. All we could get were the ex asperated tones of Art Rosenbraugh’s voice when he said—(Deleted!) • • • The Oregon Knight with the sema j phore flags was an innovation in sig nalling the yardage and downs to the (Continoed on page two.)

These women have done outstanding work in the journalism department and have worked on the Emerald, the Oregana and other campus publications. Nancy Wilson has been a reporter for two years on the Emerald and is at present one of the day editors. Velma Farn ham was on both the Emerald and Ore gano staffs for two years, and is edi tor of this year’s Oregana. Mabel Gilliam has been on the Emerald staff for three years and has also worked on the Oregana. Freda Goodrich and Rosalia Keber have both worked on the Emerald staff for the past two* years. Theta Sigma Phi, which is made up of upperclass women, is a professional as well as an honorary fraternity. The aim, both of Theta chapter and of the national organization, is to further the professional spirit and aid all women who go into journalistic work. Each year Theta chapter puts out one edi tion of the Emerald, publishes “The Handshake,” a small paper devoted to the alumna, and gives at leant one open meeting each term to which under class women are invited and at which some person of note is asked to speak. This year Theta also plans to send a representative to the national conven tion, to be held in the middle west, probably sometime in December. Borne ot the best known alumnae of Theta are Grace Edgington, Ado laide Lake, Dorothy Duniway and Lu eile Saunders. Miss Edgington, now alumni secretary for Oregon, is na tional organizer of Theta Sigma Phi. Last year Miss Edgington made a trip through the South, Middle West and East visiting a number of chapters, and installing a chapter at the Univer sity of California. Adelaide Lake is now a reporter on the Oregonian, Dorothy Duniway is registrar at Beed College, and Lucile Saunders is United Press correspondent at Washington, D. C. One of the national undertakings of Theta Sigma Phi is the Women’s Journalistic Register, with headquar ters at Chicago. This register is for the use of all women journalists, whether members of the fraternity or not. It has found positions for a num ber of women during the last year, and is proving a valuable institution for the convenience of employers and po sition seekers. The active numbers of Theta chapter are: Mary Lou Burton, Lenore Cram, Inez King, Margaret Scott, and Jes sie Thompson.

Cougar Line-up Unable to Halt Varsity Attacks * By Ep. Hoyt Oregon smashed through to a 13-0 victory over the Washington State Cougars on Hayward field yesterday afternoon, after thr play ers looked all but helpless before the Cougar onrushes in the first quarter. The first period was all Washington State and the Cougars in that opening frame rolled over the Oregon line for four first downs, displaying a power and versatility of attack totally iucougrous with their 61-0 defeat at the hands of California last week. Outplayed in every department in t he opening minutes of the game, the Oregon team came back strong and with the resumption of play in the second quarter had things much their own way for the rest of the battle. OREGON’S NEEDS TOLD AT ALUMNI MEETING Future of University Outlined By Captain Lamar Tooze Alumni who attended a meeting of the Alumni association held in Guild hull yesterday left the convention with' a comprehensive view of Oregon’s fu ture greatness well in mind. Lamar Tooze, assistant manager for the Ten Million Dollar Gift campaign, by the use of au illustrated lecture told the “Old Grads” of the urgent need for more buildings on the campus and showed sketches of the proposed build mgs to be erected if the campaign were a success. Tooze informed his fellow alumni that eight ninths of the funds now available for University use were tieeded to meet current expenses. Only one ninth ho said could bo used as a sinking fund for new buildings. This he declared was entirely inadequate for an institution which is growing as rapidly as the University of Oregon. A now library and a new men's gym nasium are the most urgent needs on the campus now according to Tooze. The organization and work of the physical education department was explained to the alumni by Dean John F. Bovard. The Dean briefly outlined the work and purpose of this depart ment and informed the alumni that the University should take more inter est in athletics than is shown at pres cut. Teaching the whole student body ahletics was considered part of the work of the physical education depart ment by Dean Bovard. The students must understand athletics before they can support the teams, he declared. A motion to the effect thut the alumni should support the gift cam ! paign and that every member of the alumni association and every former 1 student should be urged to participate , actively in the campaign was read and adopted at the meeting. It was fur | ther resolved that the president of the , alumni association should appoint a 1 committee from among the alumni and former students to cooperate with the (Continued on page two.) Oregon Backfield Men Who Yesterday Tore Through W. S. C. Line for Gains Emulating the smashing attacks of George King, the four backfield men shown above in the game on Hayward yesterday made consistent gains through the Cougar line. Beading from left to right, the play ers shown in this picture are “Dutch” Oram, “Hunk” Latham, Ward Johnson, and Hal Chapman. Oregon took the ball on her own yard line after an attempted place kick by Hickey from 415 yard lino had "eon unsuccessful and hud been run buck 1l' yards by Hal Chapman. Again the Oregon attack was rolled back and Chapman was forced to punt. Wash ington State took the ball and made their last first down of the game, then Oregon hold. Dun ton was forced to punt, he tried it twice, his first attempt was 18 yards but both teams wore off side and the kick was called back. His next attempt was a little better and he got the pigskin away for L’O yards, that was one of the breaks of the game, for Oregon took the ball right there on their own 45 yard line and started slowly, steadily toward the Cougar goal. Battlers Tear Through Or,'ideally the Oregon offensive gained headway and in three first downs that were made by line bucks featuring King and Chapman and a six yard pass Latham to King put the ball on the Cougars one yard line, it was first down and with four attempts available, George King gathered him self up into a resistless human jugger naut and smashed across on the first I'lay with yards to spare. Ifal Chap man failed to convert the try from placement after the touchdown and the score stood Oregon (1, Washington State College b. In the third quarter Oregon again took up the march to the Cougar goal lino. Powerfully the varsity backs tore through the red lino but in the shadow of the goal posts the Washing ton State line held like a wall of stone and though the Oregon backs had been piercing the Pullman line almost at will on the five yard line with four downs to go they fell short by inches on the fourth down. Hut that march to the goal was a real thriller. Captain Shields kicked off to Jack Davis at the oponing of the second half who was unable to gain. The Pullman eleven attempted to pierce the Oregon defense but wero turned back on the fourth down and Captain Dunton was forced to punt. ! Three times, Chapman, Latham, King, | and Gram made first down and the I march down the field was a spectacu | lar thing. The fact that Oregon did | not put over that touchdown was not | a lack of strength on the part of Ore gon, but was a splendid bit of defen | sivo work on the part of Welch’s men. Hal Chapman Scores The varsity punched over their final 1 touchdown at the beginning of the fourth period when play opened with 1 the ball in Oregon’s possession on the Pullman five yard liuo. Chapman j tore through on the first play and con ; verted his placekick after the touch i down. The touchdown came after a series of brilliant plays in the third j period, after Chapman had received 1 Dunton’s boot on the Washington State 45 yard line and ran it buck ten | yards, and the Oregon backs had stead ily advanced the ball down the field on 1 brilliant line bucks. In the laHt of tho game with but two short minutes to go, the Pullman ag gregation put on a desperate attempt to score a touchdown and within their own twenty yard line opened up a series of forward passes that all fell short but one Dunton to Hickey for eight yards. On the third attempt of the first series of passes in those last minutes Gram intercepted and Oregon determined to score again before the timers gun had ended the scoring also opened an aerial attack. The first was intercepted and again the Stater’s sought to gain yardage through the air. Hut the attempts were unsuccessful auil again on the third attempt Gram iuter I (Continued on pag* two.)
