FROSH HOOP SOUAD HAS 10 BUTTLES Chemawa and Mt. Angel Will Be Opponents for Babes in Preliminaries Oregon’s freshmen hoopers, hitherto undefeated, are preparing for some stiff competition this week-end. Friday eve ning the Chemawa Indian quintet will form the opposition for the babes and Saturday night Mt. Angel college is scheduled to battle the first year men. Both of these games are preliminaries to the varsity games and will start (promptly at 7 o’clock or perhaps before, in order to get the big games off on time. In the three contests already played the frosh have had little difficulty in turning in victories by decisive scores. Franklin high school was the only team which gave them a close run and in this tilt the frosh were not up to form. But both the Indians and Mt. Angel are said to have teams above high school calibre and it is likely that the babes will have to extend themselves to chalk up wins against them. Squad Is Reduced The frosh squad, which has been re duced to 10 men, has been working out every day with the varsity squad. Dur ing the season the yearlings will be handled more or less by Shy Ilunting 'ton, as Coach Bolder will be too occu pied with the varsity men to devote much attention to them. Until a short time before the annual game with the Aggie rooks the present squad will be retained but then it is planned to make another reduction, leaving six or seven men who will be retained for the rest of the season. Just who will compose this squad depends upon the work of the men during the coming games. Coach Bohler expressed himself as fairly well pleased with the work of the b.abes in the contest with the guardsmen Monday night. The team showed a tendency to be erratic at times and its playing was rather listless in the second half but these faults will no.doubt disappear with further prac tice and experience. SUMMER PLANS FORMULATING Plans for the 1923 summer session of the University are already under way and word has been received that Dr. ( harlcs II. Whitman, head of the Eng-; iish department at Rutgers college, will be here to give a number of courses in j advanced writing and short story writ-i dug. Dr. Whitman has also been head j of the English department in the Now i Jersey College for Women since it was ! founded four years ago and has had ! experience in lecturing to women as I well as men. He received his doctor’s degree of philosophy from Yale Univer-! sity and has traveled abroad extensive-1 ■ly since that time. OPERA COMPANY TO APPEAR The American Light Opera company j will appear at the Ileilig on Thursday,! Friday and Saturday, January IS, It) [ and 20.

Finding only liabilities when he ex-'j ported to get a fortune, he drops in i popular estimation with a sickening i crash, lie goes away to make good and i when he returns very inauspieiously, ho i is the subject of more ridicule than ■ ever. It is well worth while to see how he extricates himself from the disagree- | able situation.

In spite of the fact that the score was bnesided, the game was fast and hard fought, the losing players putting up a strong defense against their oppon ents. The Hendricks team is one of the strongest in the do-nut) league an^l proved too fast for the Tri Delt team, which has been greatly weakened by /the loss of two of its first team players. Hendricks hall and the Thetas were winners in Tuesday’s games, the former fcwamping the Delta Gamma hoopers by a score of 57 to 2, while the Alpha Chi Omegas lost to the Theta team in a close tilt, resulting in a 15 to 14 score. Grace Sullivan, forward for Susan Campbell did the best work she has done this season, annexing 42 points to the score by her 21 baskets. Today at 5 o’clock Hendricks hall 'and Susan Campbell are scheduled to play. This game promises to be one of the best and most exciting of the (year, as neither team has been defeat led this year. Six games yet remain to be played in the series and according to Grace Sullivan, head of basketball till games must be over by the end of this week. The lineup for yesterday’s game was as follows: , Hendricks Tri Delt M. Crain.C. F. Karshner W. Chattin .SC. J. Ulrich M. Onslow .G. A. McMonies J\ Lewis .G. M. Goodin G. Sullivan .F. E. Robson IB. Alexander .F. A. Langmarc WIRING HELD CIHIEF LIBRARY FIRE DANGER 1VL H. Douglass Says Hazard Caused by Electricity; H. M. Fisher Contends No Need for Present Alarm The only danger to the library from Hire, according to M. H. Douglass, li brarian, is through overloaded electric wires. If too many lights are going in the building for the weight of the wires, they will become hot. When Uiis happens the fuses blow out and that ends the danger. But if the wires, through some unforeseen neglect are not properly insulated they set fire to woodwork and should such be the ease hud a fire gets started in the main part of the library, it would go so rap idly that few, if any, of the books could be saved. The old main part of the building is of cheap construction and even the supporting pillars are all of wood. A Hire would create such a heat that it would dangerously risk the chance of saving the stacks which are of good lire proof construction. The library is not insured, as the state does not insure its buildings. Somo of the books are insured, but no insur ance could replace a collection that has taken years to build up. According to I.. II. Johnson, comptroller of the Uni versity, the books of the business of fice show a total of $25,000 in insurance ■.overing the books in the library. Mr. H. M. Fisher says the wires at 1 he library are soon to be replaced and is there are no actual fires in the build ng there is no very present danger. INDIAN STUDENT HURT Frank Johnson, junior in pre-medi inc, sustained a broken collarbone Tues lay afternoon while wrestling in the rymnasium, and is now in the Univer dty infirmary. The nature of injury s not very serious, according to the it tending physician, although the ac ident is painful to the patient. He v 111 be able to resume his studies with- j n a few days. Johnson is an Alaskan j ndian and is a member of the Cosmo- ! lolitan club.

TERM PLAN VOTE (Continued from page one.) them and convince others to their way Of thinking. This deptli of conviction was eviden ced in some of the ballots last, so say the counting committee. One zeal ous upholder of the term plan wrote on the back of his ballot the following: '“Semester plan will work serious hard ships on self-supporting student, and would undo the work of dovetailing the courses of study, which are working so well at present, and which have been completed at a great cost of labor and time.” Another who voted for the se mester plan also offered this opinion, evidently not entirely satisfied with ei ther plan: “Six days a week, six weeks longer in summer.” Little Group Voting Other interesting facts caught by the counting committee indicated how strongly some favored the plan of their choice. One co-ed very distinctly made four neat X’s in the square opposite the term plan. Quite a number wrote the figure “3” alongside the X, to make doubly certain, no doubt, that their choice would not be mistaken. Occasion al votes noticed by the committee in dicated, likewise, that there was very little “group” voting. Those depart ments standing out most strongly against the proposed change had their few who favored the semester plan. In one instance it was noticed brother voted against brother. Due to the temporary illness of Phil Brogan, managing editor of the Emer ald, the election board and counting committee were under the supervision of Art Rudd, associate managing edi tor. All members of the election board were members of the Emerald staff, since the campus daily sponsored the btraw vote. The counting committee, however, was composed of students of Several departments. Box Is Watched “The ballot box was carefully watch ed all day,” declared Rudd, “and the election as a whole conducted iu as fair a manner as possible.” Those in charge of the box during the day were Inez King, George Stewart, Kenneth Cooper, Anna Jerzyk, and Genevieve Jewell. The counting committee was compos ed of the following members: iilen McVeigh, senior, English litera ture; Leonard Lerwill, junior, journal ism; Margaret Beatty, senior, business administration; and Lester Turnbaugh, junior, journalism. A statement to the effect that the result of the count was correct to the best of the ability of its members was signed by the committee and turned over to the Emrald editor.

The Complete Project for the Standard Oil Building Neu> York City carr£re HASTINGS Architects E.CO. *'T' - | “The New Architecture” A DISTINCTLY new tendency is apparent in architectural thought and design today. Architects are designing in passes — the great silhouette, the profile of the building has become of far greater importance than its detail. There is a new vigor and ruggedness even in buildings which are conven tionally classic in their detail. Masses mount upward, supporting the tower, j accentuating its height. The new architecture is tending toward great struc tures rather than multiplicity of detail. Certainly modern invention—modern engineering skill and organization, I j will prove more than equal to the demands of the architecture of the future.

Bovard, Dr. ,). H. Gil bert, Ben Maxwell. Hal Sayre, Or lano Hollis, .Jack Myers, Paul Staley. The Co-op store is proving itself to be of student benefit in more ways than on| ordinarily imagines, for example, $1,620 was paid to student assistants during the past year. Many Co-op members were made happy last spring when dividends were paid. A total of $1500 was dis tributed among the student members. Students used their dividends in various ways, some in trade, others in cash. Last years textbook business, as estimatel at the meeting, amounted to a total of $2S,000; this was an in crease over the business of the pre vious year. Distributing textbooks of this amount is no small task. The manager reported a very successful year, with prospects of paying dividends at the close of the school year in June. Bright prospects for those who wisely invested a dollar last fall! Buy at the CO-OP Always
