Oregon Looks Ahead
Basketball is all but past at Oregon for another year and in spite
of tlie standing attained by Coach Bolder's proteges in the percentage
column, the year may well be recorded as a decidedly successful one.
Before the season opened, few hopes were entertained as to a confer
ence championship, then came victories over Multnomah and North
Pacific, and then the Lemon-Yellow surprised every one by wallop
ing Idaho decisively; and then came talk of a championship, but in
experience and the Fates decreed otherwise and Oregon will finish
far down the conference list.
Everything considered, Coach Bolder has done a remarkable thing
in developing the team as it has been developed and Oregon has
showed itself to be a real basketball team by giving the Idaho men
the stiffest competition they have had on their own floor this year,
losing to the Argonauts by two points in the last minute of play.
Tonight the team plays the University of Washington in what is
an all-important game for the Sundodgers. It makes little difference
to Oregon, that game, but the Varsity will be in their, fighting as
hard as though the game, if won, gave them the championship.
No unusual situation exists in the northern division of the Pacific
Coast conference this year in that there are five teams, Oregon,
Washington, Idaho, the Aggies and Washington State, of almost
equal caliber. When going at top speed, Oregon defeated two of
these teams handily enough and the erratic playing that lost the
others may be, without the suggestion of an alibi which is unneessary,
laid to the grippe and to inexperience.
With the season all but over, fans may look forward to one of
the strongest court teams Oregon lias ever produced for next year.
But one man is lost from this year’s five and with lots of wonderful
material an exceptionally strong five is assured a year hence, for
give George Bolder as good material as that which composes the
teams of these other schools and be will beat them, for Bolder knows
basketball, and what is more important, be is a natural coach and
has the art of imparting that knowledge to bis players. Another
year with Bolder coaching, Oregon promises to be easily the strong
est on the coast.
SANDBURG SAYS MOVIES
HAVE OWN FIELD IN ART
(Continued rro\n page one)
It isn't that they’re vulgar I wish to
God they were!” he exclaimed, with a
slow vigor. *• Healthy vulgar,” he
explained, ‘'like the tavern characters
of Shakespeare.” One of the listeners
at the Shack wanted to know what
Sandburg thought about the much-inn!
igned custard-pie comedy.
“There’vo been good custard-pie com
edies,” was Sandburg’s unexpected re
ply. Charlie Chaplin’s comedies win
his hearty favor for genuine, if broad,
humor. “Thoughtful people,” he said,
‘feel that Chaplin is a poet and humor
ist working on the dark fabric of life.”.
Now and then in Sandburg’s slow, sum-I
bre speech appears a word like a flash
of color, showing the qualities in the
man that make him one of America’s
great poets.
Among movies that Mr. Sandburg
likes, are the Chaplin productions of
“The Kid,” “A Cog’s Life,” “The
Idle Class,” "The Pilgrim,” and “Pay
day.” All these, Mr. Sandburg men
tioned, were made by the comedian
after lie became independent and could
do the work as he wanted to.
Other movies the critic likes are
"Quincy Adams Sawyer,” "The llot
tentot,” “Tol’able David,” and “The
Cabinet of Dr. Calidari.” The reporter
ventured to mention “The Sheik,” and
Sandburg replied that he saw only 20
minutes of it.
He said of the films that he had men
tinned liking "they are doing something
with their own technique, something
you cannot do with words. They hold
you, and you ask yourself afterward,
why they did.”
Mr. Sandburg has written numerous
articles on the subject of motion pic
tures, in addition to the poems for
which he has achieved fame.

POISON OAK STILL BOTHERS
Precautionary Measures Urged; Health
Situation the Same
Poison oak cases still continue to ap
pear at the dispensary for treatment,
despite last week’s warning, says Dr.
Livingston of the University health ser
vice. Many students are suffering very
acutely with the ailment, and it is al
most impossible to stop it or relieve
the suffering caused once it becomes
started.
“Contrary to an erroneous newspaper
report, it is very seldom communicated
from one person to another,” says Dr.
Livingston, “but it is very easily con
tracted from the plant, especially at
this time of year,—owing to the ab
sence of leaves on the plant, which
would help one to identify it, and keep
away from it.”
A repetition of the warning given
out last week seems to be necessary,
and students are advised as a precau
tionary measure, to use an ordinary
laundry soap in washing after possible
exposure followed by a thick paste of
baking soda and water.
The health situation seems to remain
about the same, accordnig to Dr. Liv
ingston. Although last week’s warm
weather seemed to lighten the number
of cases in the infirmary, only two stu
dents being confined there at one period
last week, the returning cold weather
has brought an increasing number of
cases.

SNAKES INVADE THE CAMPUS
ACCORDING TO “STTJDES”
Psycho-physical Tests Reveal Great Adventure;
No Traces Left by Invaders
snakes and little ones, green ones
nnd spotted brethern ranging in texture
from th ultra-slick and slimy to wrink
ley, old chapped backed veterans invad
ed the lawns and buildings of the cam
pus last night, according to authentic
testimony from a couple of “studes”
tested this morning by the new psycho
physical tests recently introduced on
the campus.
“We were-coming across the campus
after the party last night,” the testi
mony of the first subject ran. “when
all of a sudden I felt something in my
pocket and on investigation found there
the cutest little rattler all coiled upf
ready for bed.
“There were snakes every where we
looked: on the library steps, hanging
from the telephone wires, playing hide- j
an-go-seek over the folds of the Pioneer j
and luxuriously wound around the pill-j
ers of the Ad building.
“Under nicotine bramble reposed a1
number of African smoking snakes
calmly talking over the events of the
day. Husky Boa Constrictors, with yel
low O’s on their chests, were torment
ing little green lizards on the steps of
the library while snappy, brightly color
ed Garter snakes were attracting at
tention among the noisy, sophomoric
Rattlers.
“And what did we do then? Why
we hit straight for OBAK ’S where we
knew we would find a real bunch of col
lege men and plenty of eats and real
smokes. That’s always the place where
real men head for when they are feel
ing punk or in need of some regular
HE recreation. All college men know
that.”
Doughnut Standings Punched
Full of Holes
House Managers As Well as Girls
Profit by Program
With the Sculpture Club and Theta
Sigma Phi tied neck tosneck in a dead
heat the doughnut dispensing crown
still rests on its dusty shelf waiting
for one faction or the other to stage
a spurt and win the right to claim the
prize.
Although going strong in all depart
ments of the race the Sculpture Club
is greatly handicapped by having been
so slow on the start. There is little
chance that either of the leaders will
be overtaken.
" Doughnut snooker is progressing nice
ly, one ball being pocketed last evening
and two the night before.
The pie-eating contest now being run
off under do-nut regulations is proving
to be more than the proprietors had
expected for it seems that several of
the campus house managers have decid
ed to take advantage of this event for
the purpose of cutting down house ex
penses. They have accordingly done
away with all pie at meal time replac
ing it with instructions to their men to
repair down to OBAK’S and enter the
race.
It has been proposed from an un
known source that a new plank be ad
ded to the do-nut program in the form
of doughnut studying contests. For
some unknown reason the contestants,
in the present league have not been ex
ceedingly interested in the proposal.
Present plans are to forgo the contest
until just before exams.
