NUMBER 81
VARSITY QUINTET
FICES HOT BUTTLE
WITH BBS TONIGHT
Only First of Week-End Games
Counts Toward Place in
Conference Standings
SQUADS EVENLY MATCHED
Usual Lineup to Start; Hunk
and Hjelte Compete for
Northwest Honors
This afternoon at Two o ’clock the
Varsity leaves for Corvallis to meet
the Aggies tonight, in what will be one
of the most hotly contested games of
the year. The Aggies cleaned up on
Willamette Tuesday night by a 39 to 13
score, and played their second string
most of the time, so it can easily be
seen that they are at the top of their
season’s form.
The game tonight counts in the con
ference standings, but the one on Sat
urday does not, for it was decided at
the last conference meet to count only
two games between any two teams,
because in former years some teams
have gained a distinct advantage by
having four games scheduled with a
weaker rival.
The two squads are so evenly match
ed according to dope, that absolutely
no prediction can be made as to the
result, but with the Oregon five going
at top speed it is hard to see how they
can be stopped.
Colds Weaken Squad
Most of the squad has been laid up
this week with severe colds, however,
so it is doubtful whether they will be
able to last through the entire game,
as it promises to be the fastest little
mix of the year.
The Aggies have developed a brand
new formation in basketball which
they used to great advantage against
Washington. It works like this: four
men line up in guard positions and
when the ball is tapped the forwards
break past center, and receiving the
ball at full speed, have a great advan
tage over their opponents. Ridings was
especially good on this play and drib
bled through the entire Husky team
for baskets on a couple of occasions.
The Webfooters wTere in a decided
slump when they played Washington,
and it is a big question whether they
have recovered or not. If they have
they should be able to turn in a win
ning score over the Aggies, but even
if they haven’t it will be an interest
ing game, for they come within two
points of beating Washington when
they were off. their game last week.
Close Game Predicted
Coach Bolder says the Oregon men
can win if they play the game they
should, but he predicts that the score
will be very close, and breaks will
count a great deal.
The same lineup which has started
for Oregon in every contest this year,
will lead oft' tonight, this being Zimmer
man and Gowans as forwards, Latham
at center, and Chapman and Shafer as
guards. Zim, Hunk and Gowans all
have bad colds, but may be able to
stand the full 40 minutes anyway. Gow
ans played with a sore arm against
Washington, and didn’t show up well,
but is all right now and should go bet
ter than ever.

Cordial Word
of Welcome
Given Visitors
by President
President P. L. Campbell’s wel
come to the visiting delegates is as
follows:
“I wish personally to extend a wel
come to the many high school stu
dents who are visiting the campus of
the University of Oregon today and
tomorrow as delegates to the Oregon
High School Press Association and
the Oregon Association of High
School Presidents and Secretaries. It
is the aim to make these conferences
as valuable as possible, and I trust
you will be able to take home with
you much of definite worth to you
and your school as a result of your
participation in the conference. It
is good for all of us to meet and ex
change views, multiplying our ideas
and cooperatively looking at our pro
blems. I understand that you have
a full program and are to work hard
while you are here but that there will
be short intervals of relaxation. In
both instances consider the Univer
sity of Oregon as yours.”
OLD OREGON TO BE OFF
PRESS ON FEBRUARY 5
Pictures and Short Sketches
of Regents Appear
Old Oregon, official alumni publica
tion, will be out Monday, February 5,
according to Grace Edgington, alum
ni secretary.
The feature of this edition will be
a picture and a short biography of each
member of the board of regents. Three
of the regents are Oregon graduates,
Vernon Vawter, ’13, of Medford; C. E.
Woodson of Heppner, and Henry Mc
Kinney, ’07, of Keating.
Dr. William K. Livingston, ’13, di
rector of the University health service,
has an article giving interesting data
on incidents that come to light in the
health service department. In examin
ing the freshmen men it was discover
ed that a number had tubercular trou
ble but did not know it. One boy was
advised to drop his college work.

Eastern Oregon High School
Delegate Criticises Sombrero
From the wilds of Eastern Oregon
comes Oscar Thompson, representing
the Antelope high school. Thompson,
who lives in the land where roams the
rabbit and coyote, and where occasion
al long-horned steers browse around the
pinnacles, says that seniors meandering
about the campus with massive head
gear remind him of a gathering of cow
punchers standing by for the spring
round-up.
The first students to register for the
High School Conference drifted into
the administration budding shortly af
ter noon yesterday. There tvere six or
them. Two, Verne Miller and Dorsey
Gray, were from the high school at
Turner. Walter Witt, Calvin Eldgr and
Dick Ford hail from Mill City while
the other, Linnie Croft, is a representa
tive from Leaburg.
Cottage Grove high school found the
conference came on its busiest week
end and was only able to send two del
egates. They have two basketball
games, one a boy’s and the other a
girl’s contest, and a debate with Ku
gene high school all on Friday night.
Their two delegates are Roy Heck and
Floyd Runk, both of whom came ves
terday.
The registration committee hands out
enough literature to furnish the dele
gates with a young library. Tickets to
the Hendricks hall banquet, College
Night, the women’s style show, and pro
grams are only part of the printed mat
ter distributed.
When it comes to tickets the women
who registered for the conference have
it all over the men. They get four
tickets while the men only get two.
The reason is that the men are exclud

“COLLEGE NIGHT"
IS FEATURE FOR
CAMPUS GUESTS
Visiting High School Students
Will Get Glimpses of
University Life
VARIED PROGRAM PLANNED
Orchestra and Glee Clubs Will
Give Numbers; Movies
Will Be Shown
Tonight after numerous sessions and
conferences, the high school editors,
student body presidents and secretaries
will be given a chance to relax and ab
sorb some of the college atmosphere,
when they gather at Villard hall as
the honored guests of the University.
For their special edification and en
tertainment the students of the Uni
versity are presenting “College Night.”
The program includes numbers both en
tertaining and beneficial.
“College Night” has come to be one
of the important events in the annual
conference of the high school students.
Last year a similar entertainment was
very successful in its purpose and it
was decided to put on a similar program
this year.
Students Will Mingle
This can be said to be the only
chance that the high school people will
have of mingling to any great extent
with the student body of the Univer
sity, and that is an important item in
itself. Little informal dances and other
affairs will be staged, but this does not
allow the preppers to come in contact
with the majority' of students. It will
also tend to break the fatiguing mono
tony of too much conference work. As
it is, the two days of the conference
are filled with sessions, and the respite
offered by “College Night” will be
greatly appreciated.
Music will furnish an important part
of the evening’s entertainment. The
University Symphony orchestra will ap
pear in several numbers, as will the
Men’s and Women’s Glee clubs. From
past performances of these organiza
tions excellent music and entertainment
can be expected.
Athletic Awards Feature
One event which will attract the spe
cial attention of the prepper athletes
will be the awarding of sweaters by
Coach Huntington. The following men
receive letters for their work on the
gridiron during the "past season; Qap
tain Archie Shields, George King,
Prince Callison, Hud Brown, “Hunk”
Latham, Harold Chapman, Karl Vonder
Ahe, Ward Johnson, Floyd Shields,
“Chuck” Parsons, “Dutch” Gram, Ter
ry Johnson, Bill Spear, Horace Byler,
Dick Heed, “Cogs” Campbell, and Bay
McKeown. Parsons and Gram are not
on the campus at the present time and
their awards may be forwarded to
them.
“See yourself as others see you” is
the name of the campus movie that is
to be shown. Students, instructors and
campus scenes and activities are in the
makeup of the picture. Added to this
there is to be shown “The Making of
the Newspaper” which will be of in
terest to the high school editors as well
as to journalists and others. This
movie follows the making of the Ore
gonian from the pulp state to the paper
on the street, showing the various steps.
The writing, printing, and stereotyping
as well as the other processes are given
in detail in the film.
Trophies Will Be Given
Forensic trophies will also be award
continued on page two.)
DEBATE TEAM IS SELECTED
First Contests Are With O. A. C. March
7 Here and at Corvallis
Women debaters who will take part
in the O. A. C. varsity debates have
been chosen by Professbr C. D. Thorpe,
of the English department who has
charge of coaching the team. Lurline
Coulter, Frances Simpson, Eugenia
Strickland, May Fenno and Margaret
Duerner are the five girls chosen, one
of whom will serve as alternate.
The O. A. C. debate will take place
on March 7, one team of two debating
in Corvallis and the other at Guild
hall in Eugene. Students are asked
to keep the date in reserve as student
body support is one of the essentials
to a winning team.
The question to be debated is almost
the same as that used for do-nut de
bate. It is “Resolved, that the United
States should cancel the allied war
debts of France, Italy and Belgium.”

Committee Gets Well-Known
Scholar for Addresses
February 7, 8, 9
SPEAKER IS WIDELY READ
_
International Topics Will Be
Subject of Assembly Talk
Next Thursday
Charles Upson Clark, noted scholar,
lecturer, traveler and author, will be on
the University campus February 7, 8
and 9, during which time he will speak
to student groups on a variety of sub
jects, including current topics, of dom

Dr. Clark has lectured in the course
of his travels in many schools in the
United States and Canada, and has
studied, lectured and taught in numer
ous institutions of higher learning in
Europe.
Conference Time Provided
Following out a suggestion made by
the Emerald sometime ago that author
ities on current history be brought to
the campus to speak to students and
keep them in closer touch with events
of the day, both at home and abroad,
members of the free intellectual activ
ities committee have purposely left Dr.
Clark’s program incomplete in order
that students or members of the faculty
may organize groups to ask for lectures
that will interest them most. Anybody
desiring Dr. Clarl^ to give any subject
within the fields listed below should
communicate to Dean Eric W. Allen or
Professor R. E. Clark, immediately.
“Dr. Clark has a wide knowledge and
is well versed in history and current
events,” said Dean Allen. “It will be
an excellent opportunity for students
to acquaint themselves with events in
the world today. Dr. Clark will proba
bly speak to groups of students in his
tory, journalism and the classics, but
will not necessarily limit his lectures
to these subjects.”
Graduated from Yale
Dr. Llark is a graduate of Yale, class
of 1897, and lias studied at the uni
versities of Munich, Grenoble, Paris
and the American School of Classical
Studeis, Borne. Later he became direc
tor of the last named institution. His
home is in New York City, but he
spends his summers in Canada as prin
cipal of the Massawippi summer school,
north Hatley, Province of Quebec. For
a number of years he was lecturer for
| the New York board of education.
During the years of 1919 and 1921
Dr. Clark visited Roumania as a guest
of the government. As a result of these
visits he is well versed on social, po
litical and economical situations in the
Near East at the present time. His
travels and studies in other European
(countries have added to his vast fund
and great variety of knowledge, and
has given him a broad experience that
j is the basis of his lectures.
Mother Was Author
Dr. Clark is the son of Kate Upson
I Clark, author, and is himself the auth
or of “Greater Roumania” and other
books, and has written many magazine
articles anti verses.
Among Dr. Clark \s lectures are the

HEALTH SITUATION BETTER
■•Though there are several patients in
the infirmary, the general health situa
tion is much better,” said Dean Bovard
yesterday. “If the students would take
care of themselves before they get sick,
look at the situation seriously and
guard against staying long in a room
which is too hot or too cold, the number
| of patients would soon decrease mater
ially. The dispensary is for the use of
' students. Go in often if you feel bad
i ly, consult with the nurses and if you
have a sore throat, get your throat
I sprayed.”

Movie Film Pictures Operation
of Big Portland Daily
Thi' busy news-room where the type
writers tack, anil the basement under
ground where the great presses whang
—everything interesting in the making
of the paper one will read tomorrow
morning over the breakfast table, is
shown in the film, “The Making of a
Newspaper” which will be put on as
a feature in the “College Night” en
tertainment in Villard hall this eve
ning.
This movie begins at the very begin
ning of an issue of tiie Morning Ore
gonian, for it shows the paper on which
it is printed, being manufactured at the
paper mills at Oregon City. This paper
is taken to Portland in gigantic rolls,
and is stored in the basement of the
Oregonian building, where it will be
used in coming editions of the big city
daily.
Of perhaps the greatest interest to
journalism students or high school vis
itors who are looking forward to en
rolling in the University school of .jour
nalism, are the glimpses the movie gives
of the day’s work of the reporter. Re
porters (including Hill Warren and
Dean Cabins) getting their assignments
from the city editor (Horace Thomas),
reporters hard at work turning their
stories off the typewriters, and, finally,
the stories being cut and headed up on
the copy desk (superintended by Ralph
Mitchell) are among the pictures in
this newspaper movie.
Students in the publishing classes
will have a feeling of being well-in
formed, when they recognize processes
in the making of photographic repro
ductions, shown on the screen; and
other students who have always won
dered just how the photographs were
reproduced in the papers, will have an
opportunity of finding out.
The film is primarily included in the
“College Night” entertainment for the
benefit'of high school editors who are
guests on the campus, but all guests
will find it both interesting and useful.
