INDIANS CAUSE OF FIRST FROSH LOSS Defeat is Laid to Patched Line up of Frosh; Chemawa Held to be in Good Trim The Oregon frosh basketeers can no longer boast of an unbroken string of victories. Their succession of wins was /broken at Salem. Friday night when .they met the Chemawa Indians in a return game, and when the latter, by showing marked improvement in bas ketball ability, handed the yearlings a 28 to 25 lacing. “Chemawa was going good, while the freshmen were not up to standard,” is how Shy put it. And from reports, (that e°xplains the defeat. The Indians (put up a brilliant game throughout while the first year men, forced to use a patched-up line-up, because of the illness of Bryant and Mautz, did not work with their accustomed smooth ness and though they fought hard w.'Uld not surpass the efforts of the redskins. The babes used the same line-up the entire game. Stendall and Scriptures occupied the forward positions, Gosser held his regular place at center, while Hobson and Stoddard pastimed at guard. All of them worked hard and showed flashes of brilliancy, but the quintet as a whole could not function as it should. Teamwork was woefully lacking. On the other hand Chemawa, on their own floor worked like a ma chine. With this defeat rankling in their minds the freshmen face four days of hard practice for their most crucial games of the season next Friday and Saturday. These two tilts are with the O. A. C. rooks at Corvallis. At pres ent the outlook for victory over their traditional rivals is not so good. “Deek” Bryant, reliable forward who managed to come out high point man in nearly all the early season games, has been limping around with a sprained ankle for over a week and un less he rounds into form for the rook games, it will be a decided handicap for the frosh. Bob Mautz, a reliable guard, has a bad cold and his pres ence or absence in the line-up would make a lot of difference. Leake, another scrappy guard, also has a weak ankle. Gosser and Hobso£ are just recovering from colds. Altogether, prospects are far from bright, but Coach Shy has hopes that the men will all be in good condition by the end of the week. “With Bry ant and Mautz in the line-up we have a good chance of beating the rooks,” he said last night. At any rate, the yearlings should not be troubled with over-confidence.

EMERALD CHANGES MADE New Daily Editors and Night Editors Names Will Appear Soon Emerald staff appointments for the winter term and changes in the mast head will be made this week, according to Phil Brogan, managing editor of the campus daily. Several of the mem bers of the reportorial staff have not returned to school this term, while others, engaged in other campus ac tivities, find it impossible to work. The entire staff has been reorganized recently and the new masthead will present a changed appearance, it is predicted. The change will be especi ally noticeable in the daily editor and night editor groups and in the news staff, it is said. Some 20 members of the reporting classes are now trying out for places on the Emerald staff and several of these will be given positions this week, according to the editors. Others will be named from time to time as they i prove their mettle. The personnel of the reportorial staff is to be increased! and the most efficient students in the school of journalism who find time to work on the daily will be placed on the I staff after a period of trial in report- j ing.

Why is it carved over the fire- ^ places?” are the obvious questions (that follow. The answer is simple: When Miss Cornelia Marvin, present state librarian, and Judge Robert Bean | designed the University library in 1895, it pleased them to have the mystic 'word carved in the panel where it now .stands. It is a Latin word, and it means simply “Welcome.” HONOR SOCIETY INITIATES Phi Delta Kappa Takes Seven Men At Ceremony Saturday Phi Delta Kappa, national honorary educational fraternity, initiated a class •of seven neophytes last Saturday after 'noon in the Woman’s building.

Following the initiation, all the mem bers enjoyed a banquet at the Osburn hotel, at which the mental quotients of the new members, which was revealed by the Miller-Finnerty test, was con sidered. NEW VAMP WORKS QUIETLY The game of outwitting the film censors was played at the Hollywood studio of William Fox recently. As a result, they trotted out a 1922 model vampire that will baffle every attempt to put a finger on any iniquitous act on her part in the elaborate screen production of “A Fool There Was,” which is due for an engagement of three days at the Heilig theatre, begin ning today. So it would seem that there is some real entertainment in “A Fool There Was.” Estelle Taylor is the lady who cannot make her eyes behave, and Lewis J. Stone is the man who loves to be fooled.

ZOOLOGY PAPERS READ Local Scientists 'Write Articles for National Science Convention Four articles written by professors of the University of Oregon faculty were read by title at the meeting of the American Society of Zoologists held at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, during the Christmas holi days. This was the twentieth annual meeting of the society, which is con nected with the American Association for the Advancement of Science. The papers were read by title only, since none of the Oregon members were present. They were: “The Physiologi cal Response of Paramecium to Thy toxin,” by Mr. Matthew C. Riddle and Dr. Harry Beal Torrey; “The Effect of Thyriod Feeding on the Color and Form of the Feathers of Fowels,” by Benjamin Horning and Dr. Torrey; “The Effect of Thyroid Feeding on the Moulting of Fowls,” by Mr. Horn ing and Dr. Torrey; and “Lutear Cells In the Glands • of the Thalarope,” by Dr. Harry Yocum.

REFERENDUM TO DECIDE (Continued from page one.) gued that this was a dangerous precedent to establish, and this proposal along with another motion) that thflee-fifth vote be required, went by the boards. It was reported that several members of the faculty favoring the adoption f the semester system went over to the term camp when the three-fifh proposal was rejeced. Student opinion received little consid eration in the faculty meeting yesterday other than accusations that the campus daily and faculty members had greatly influenced the student vote in favor of retention of the present ssytem of three terms. It is understood that one faculty member stated that, fraternity houses co erced its members into voting in a cer tain way, threatening to millraee the stu dents unless they voted in accordance with the wishes of the organisation. Although the wishes of the University students relative to the change to the semester plan received little considera tion, it was proposed bv a prominent member of the faculty that school men of the state, especially the high school principals, be given a hearing before the final vote was taken. Five on Committee Members of the committee that recom mended there be a reconsideration of the principal issue of the term question un der a referendum by ballot were Uean William G. Hale, Professor H. C. Howe, Dr. E. S. Conklin, Dr. James Gilbert, and Dean J. F. Bovard. MUST BE A HOUND (Continued from page one.) you can gather crumbs of fame. And you can’t possibly get the fame with making your living.” Marshall is a great hunter and gets many of his ideas while he is out on trips after grizzly and smaller game. He is planning a trip into Alaska, be fore very long. Last year instead of going back to New York at the time the O. Henry award was made, he went north, hunting. He couTdn’t do both, and he wanted to make the hunting trip most. He doesn’t make these trips so much to get material for his stories, he says, as for the fun of the hunt. Mr. Marshall’s latest book, which will be published next summer, is called “Island Retribution.” This is the story, Mr. Marshall says, of a superficial girl, a nice girl, a seaman, and a Russian who lives on an island in the Bering sea, known agreeably as Hell Island.
