Discussion on World Topics
Booked for Spring Term;
Talks Before Meetings
Group discussions on world topics will
be conducted among the men's living
organizations beginning with the spring
term, if plans considered by the inter
fraternity council last Wednesday even
ing work out successfully. Tt is planned
to carry out the work by having some
faculty membor at each house for din
ner, and he will give an after-dinner
talk, followed by discussion on some
subject selected by the students of the
house. It is expected that the meetings
will take place on the night of houSB
meetings, and that the discussions will
not last longer than half an hour.
Del Oberteuffer. Yic Risely ami Bruee
McConnell were named by the council as
-To, committee to help in selecting the
speakers and arrange schedules, by which
the plan could be carried out. The idea
has gone over big,^according to Ober
teuffer, chairman of the committee, and
is proving popular. A few, such meet
ings were held during the present term to
try out the plan, but in order to avoid
confusion in the last few weeks of the
term, it was thought advisable to leave
the matter for next term’st work. Any
house may not only select its own topic,
but also the speaker whom it wishes to
hear.
Tutankhamen, Coueism, American
Architecture, Modern Education, Women
Jurors and psychological questions are
some of the topics which have already
been suggested for the discussions.
Among the speakers listed are Dr. E. S.
Conklin, Dean H. D. Sheldon, Dr. H. B.
Torrey, Professor Justin Miller and
Dean Colin Y. Dyment.
“I consider the activity a very desir
able things,” said Prof. Justin Miller
of the law school in discussing the mat
ter, adding that it was felt by some
students that they spent four years at
the University diligently reading the
campus publications, and after gradua
tion they go out into life feeling they
are in a new world. It is sometimes
thought that these matters ought to be
taken up in the courses given at the uni
veisities and colleges, according to Mr.
Miller, but it must be rememberd that
the academic work is built up on past
work, and that too many times opinions
are biased, he said.
Dr. B. W. DeBusk of the school of e lo
cation declared the plan to be a good
way to bring the up-to-date and inter
esting topics for the students to discuss, j
and be a means of ! ■ 'rang ,!ew know
what is happening out side the campus.

These meetings are to be in the na
ture of a Spanish seminar, and during
the year each member of the society
will be responsible for a session. These
seminars are always to be conducted
in Spanish, giving the members an op
portunity for acquiring fluency in con
versational Spanish.
At the next monthly meeting, which
will be held soon after the beginning
of the spring term, Helen Hoefer and
Marian Gillis are preparing discussions,,
the subjects of which will be announced

OREGON STUDENT PLANS
TO MAKE TRIP ABROAD
(Continued from page one)
wanderlust became even more acute. His |
desire £o see historic scenes dates from
his earliest remembrance when he staged
the French Revolution on a small scale I
with wooden soldiers. Mow he wants to
see the Basque country, book-stalls along
the Seine, and the architecture of cha
teaus. He has no particular interest in
seeing the things that the average tour
ists looks for, though, of course, he will
take in the art galleries. His idea is to
study the manners and customs, and give
especial attention to the art of the theatre
“I’ll travel on trains through the less
interesting parts—apd through the Alps
—one could hardly manage them on a
bicycle, you know.”
He takes with him a letter to Joseph
Urban of New York—the man who does
decoration for the Metropolitan opera,
and who staged “When Knighthood Was
in Flower.” He has, besides the ad
dresses of Americans in the different
countries.
When he was eight and saw the play,
“Everywoman,” he stopped designing
model circuses and began to think of the
stage. And now he will realize his
dream of studying first-hand.
tHis equipment will be the simplest—
golfing trousers, crepe shirts in greys
and light tans, blankets for sleeping in
the open, and just the barest necessities.
The bicycle lie will buy abroad. His
sketch-book adds the artist to the ad
venturer.
“And when you return?” he was
asked.
“Oh, I’ll go on majoring in architec
ture,” he replied with a smile.
DO-NUT WRESTLING TO
GET UNDER WAY TODAY
Drawings Will Bo Postcl This Morning
in Men’s Gym; Contestants Must
Get Doctor’s Certificate
Do-nut wrestling will get under way
today. Drawings for the matches were
made last night and the lists will be
posted on the gym bulletin board this
morning. It is the desire of Gerald
Barnes and Coaeli Widmer, who are in
charge of the matches, that the men
run them off as fast as possible. Both
instructors will be able to handle mat
ches from 10 to 12 and from 2 to 6.
“The first round,” said Mr. Barnes,
“must be finished in a couple of days
in order that the challenge round may
be reached. We would like to run off
as many matches today as possible, 15
at least. The bouts will be held in the
two wrestlings rooms.”
The bouts will be five minutes in
length and the wrestlers must weigh in
before their preliminary match. Those
men failing to make the weight will be
automatically eliminated from the con
tests. Men making the weight will not
be required to weigh in again during
the progress of the matches.
It is also essential that the contest
ants get a doctor’s certificate before
they engage in a match. Men who
have passed the physical education test
are eligible, but to date only one cer
tificate has been turned in and the men
must turn them in to coaches at the
time of weighing.
The contests will be dispatched with
as much speed as possible so that the
final bouts may be held Friday, March
23.

tion conference held in Portland last
week-end was attended by the staff of
the physical education department of
the University and several majors in
the department. Grade schools and

various types of work carried on by
the public schools. Trips to several
of the recreational centers and commun

ical education work as done by these
groups.
Miss Florence D. Alden, head of the
physical education department, partici
pated in the program at the banquet
held in the Turnverein club house, giv
ing a review of “Organization and Ad

Just Completed Is 3676
to 3344 Points
By a score of BB7G to 3344 the Uni
versity rifle team defeated Columbia
T niversitv of New York in a telegraph
ic match just completed, according to
an announcement of the military de
partment. Scores made are on a basis
of a possible 4000. Four positions,
standing, kneeling, sitting and prone
were fired. Northwestern University
'\as also entered in this meet, but no
results have been received from their
team.
Scores made by the Oregon team in
this triangle match are as follows:
Peak, 374: Aitken, 373; Buchanan, 373;
Page, 372; Van Waters, 366; McKniglit,
365: Mays, 365; Nosier, 364; Gilbert,
362; Larson, 362.
The Oregon team that journeyed to
Corvallis last Saturday lost the meet
against O. A. C. by a margin of 108
points. O. A. C. scored 16S4 out of a
possible 2000. and Orgon made 1576.
University team members and tlieir
scores follow: aitken, 16S; Beatty, 167;
Blaekney, 162: Larson, 160; Gilbert,
157; Robnette, 157; Peak, 156; Van
Waters, 154; Smith, 152; Hayden, 143.
The low s&Qres of both teams is ac
counted for by the extreme cold, which
made accurate shooting difficult.
The men’s rifle team is now engaged
in firing a triangular meet with the
Utah Aggies, and the University of
Washington teams, while the girls’
team is firing against the University
of Tennessee this week.
