FORMER STARS OUT Basketball Prospects Bright for Yearling Team This Season With a galaxy or former high school stars from which to choose, and with the heaviest schedule, from the stand point of the number of games, that an Oregon freshman quintet has‘ever fac ed, prospects for a formidable yearling hoop squad this year are especially bright. For the past two weeks George Boh ler, head coach, has spent a hard two hours each afternoon drilling a squad of forty or more hoop aspirants in pass ing and dribbling the ball and other fundamentals of the game. This year Coach Bolder has invented a new plan in handling the yearling aspirants. Every hooper who desires to try out for the team must first reg ister with the mentor, after which he is judged according to his individual ability to handle himself on the floor, pass the ball and the like. After the members of the squad have been put through these exercises for a sufficient number of times each player by a pro cess of elimination is graded according to his all-round ability and given a cer tain rating. Those who have been class ified under the ratings of A and B will most likely compose the regular squad during the season. These men and their former high schools are as follows: Farley, Frank lin high, Portland; Carson, Newberg; Stine, Eugene; Toole, James John, Port land; Watson, Jefferson, Portland; Nel son, Pendleton; Gunther, Lincoln, Port land; Murray, Eugene; McGinnis, Marshfield; Stoddard, Baker; Jordan, Enterprise; Mays, Joseph; Tuck, West Cleveland high, Cleveland, Ohio; Goss er, Salem; Cahill, Pendleton; Horn, Pi lot* Bock; Hobson, Franklin, Portland; Palmer, Washington, Portland; Bryant, Ashland; Leake, Washington, Portland; and Mautz, Washington, Portland. Scriptures, a former Iowa high school star, has not yet registered for the squad but by his performance in the doughnut league is rated among the 22. The babes will open the season Jan uary 12 with a game against Franklin high of Portland. On the succeeding night they will tackle the Washington high school quintet. Games will be scheduled later with nearly all the Port land high schools. Other basketball quintets with whom the freshmen will tangle are Ashland and Medford high schools, Mt. Angel ‘college, Chemawa, Columbia university, and the O. A. C. rooks. Four games are scheduled with the Aggie babes. There is also a possibility of a contest1 with the University of Washington frosh. Heretofore, in the opinion of Bohler, the freshman quintets have had too easy schedules and an effort will be made this year to put an end to such. A large number of the games will be played after the close of the varsity season so' that the coach will have a better opportunity to get in closer touch with the future varsity material. EVANGELINE FOSTER TEMENID SECRETARY Joint Meeting Planned With Eastern Star at O. A. C.; Professor Dunn Outlines Bltual At an important meeting of the Te menids yesterday, Evangeline Foster was elected treasurer. Heretofore the office of secretary and treasurer has been combined but it was found neees sarp to sparate the offices with the growth of the organization during the past term. Many plans are under way for next term, probably the most important be ing a joint meeting of the Temenids with the Eastern Star organization at O. A. C. The members at Corvallis have voiced their interest in the organ ization of a similar club in Eugene and have expressed the desire to meet jointly to work out plans. The two clubs had planned to meet on Saturday of this week, but owing to approaching examinations the meeting has been postponed until the beginning of next term. Yesterday Professor Dunn outlined a plan for a ritual and gave sugges tions for a drill to be given before the Grand Chapter of the Eastern Star in Eugene next June. The next meeting of the Temenids will be held in Professor Dunn’s office, so that members may have the oppor tunity to view some very beautiful prints of the Vestal Tuccia, add Flavia owned by him. On January 20, the members will be entertained at a dance by the Craftsman club, composed of campus Masons and Sliriners. - JACOBBERGER COACHES LINCOLN Francis Jacobberger,* University of Oregon football and basketball star, has •signed*a contract to coach the Lincoln | high basketball team of Portland for the 1922-1923 season.

BRUCE J. CIFFIN CIS PSYCHOLOGICAL TESTS Personality Traits Worked Out at Hawthorne Club Meeting With Socrates ’ famous statement “Self-knowledge is the starting point of all true knowledge” as the expla nation for his . research work, Bev. Bruce J. Giffen, Presbyterian student pastor, presented a series of psycholog ical tests he has collected as a means of classification and measurement of per sonality -traits, at a meeting of the Hawthorne club in the Woman’s build ing Jast night. With the motive of working out a test in which the students could honest ly obtain some idea of their personal ity traits, their capacities and limita tions, Mr. Giffen stated he had divided his test into four parts, using as a bis is Dr. Alport’s division, namley : intelli gence, temperament with its sub-divi sions, strong and weak, broad and nar row; self-assertion, and sociality. As a test of intelligence, Mr. Giffen usues the Otis self-administering tests of mental ability. Although feeling it inadequate, he stated the best he could find as a test for the breadth of emotions is the Pressey X-0 test. “In masuring ability to get on in the world tfcfire must be an understanding of what people are thinking that can be judged by facial expressions,” stated Mr. Giffen, explaining the third part Of facial expressions which the subdivi sion of his personality test. This part consisted of a series of 18 pictures ject is asked to classify. ' The fourth division presented is a questionaire by which the subject’s personal record, education, interests and ambitions, so ciality and reactions to certain situa tions are ascertained. Aa a summary the speaker devised a graph in which are plotted interest, judgment, emotional strength and weak ness, ascendence and submission, and type of personality of the subject.

Miller, dean of tlTe school j of business administration of the Uni versity of Washington at the weekly ■ meeting of men at the Y. M. C. A. hut ! yesterday afternoon. The dean advocated that religion un doubtedly sprung from the hearth and | that the church should be dedicated to the brotherhood of man and not nar ! rowed to the tribe or community. In defense of college instruction, Dean Miller said that an education cre ates an environment which is price less and that the business man is real izing day by day the actual value of the college-educated employee. He par 1 ticrrlarly stressed the fact that “the 'five or seven million people who are [standing in the shadowland of poverty” j are there because of “economic malad justment” which has passed over them i in their lack of educational environ ment. Some 60 persons, members of the school of business administration and students majoring in some department of that school, met yesterday noon for a luncheon at the Anchorage, Dean Miller being the principal speaker. The five honor societies of the school of business administration, Alpha Kappa Psi, Phi Theta Kappa, Beta Gamma Sigma, Beta Alpha Psi, and Pan Xenia, were represented. Dean Miller, who was introduced by Dean Bobbins, of the school of busi ness administration, told how the var ious honor societies could assist the school or be of help in developing lead ers. Dean Miller said that there were two types of men—machine-like men and leaders, the latter being the group which leads the human element,—those who could develop men to give returns to the state that educated them. During his Anchorage address, Dean Miller, who Wednesday evening install ed Pan Xenia, a society for the pro motion of foreign trade, on the Univer sity campus, touched on the danger of over specialization in the various branches of commerce, pointing out the necessity of being versed in all divi sions in order that future eventuali ties can be faced. It is the duty of honor societies, said Dean Miller, to guard against such an over-specializa tion and to correlate the principles of the different commerce branches. Dean Miller said that members of honor so cieties should lead others and should assist students. In pointing out the importance of contact with the public in the field of business administration, the dean of the Washington school of commerce told how the apprentice theory was given practical application at the University of Washington, many of the students working in Seattle business offices. In conclusion, Dean Miller congratu lated Dean Robbins and the commerce honor organization for the work which has been accomplished by the Univer sity school of business administration.
