Webster Jones, Sports
“Old Oregon,” the official alumni
monthly, is off the press today. It is
the first issue of the publication for the
year, and contains over thirty-five pages
of interesting articles and features. It
will be distributed to subscribers and
campus organizations immediately.
Herbert C. Thompson, who won much
favorable comment upon an article in
the last April issue, contributes another
story of Oregon, “The McKenzie in
Horse Travel Days.” Mr. Thompson,
with his wife, passed through Eugene
last summer on his way to New York
from San Francisco, where until recent
ly he has been in the publicity depart
ment of thg San Francisco chamber of
commerce.
Ezra Meeker Photographed
“Old Oregon” boasts in this issue a
number of photographs, the best being
a full-page picture of the aged Oregon
pioneer, Ezra Meeker. The picture was
taken of Mr. Meeker while he was in
Eugene this summer to pose for the
bust being made by Avard Fairbanks.
Dean John Landsbury, of the school
of music, is given a special section.
This is the first of a series of articles
that will appear in “Old Oregon” on
the campus deans.
The poetry section, edited this year
by Margaret Skavlan, succeeding Emily
Veazie of last year, promises to be one
of the big features of tjie publication,
containing the contributions of campus
people and alumni. Letters from the
classes, and an especially long one from
Carlton Spencer, secretary of the class
of ’13, are given much prominence.
After the summer there is no end of in
teresting facts to be learned about Ore
gon’s grads.
Mews section l eatnrea
Another section, containing news of
Oregon people or of those connected with
Oregon, is a new feature of this issue
of “Old Oregon.” Marriages, deaths,
appointments and achievements, are here
listed, and accompanied by photographs.
Campus scholastic and athletic honors
are given their due importance. A num
ber of “snaps” of Bill Hayward, Spell
man and Huntington, and their men, are
found throughout the pages.
Announcement of the slogan contest
will be of interest to Oregon alumni. In
structions for entering the contest are
given in the issue. C. S. Trimmer has
written an article on ‘ ‘ College Campuses
and the People on Them,” President
Campbell contributes a message, and the
editorials are unusually good.
Grace Edgington is editor of “Old
Oregon” this year, and Jeanette Calk
ins is associate editor. Sports are ed
ited by Webster Jones. An attractive
heading for this section was designed by
Rolf Klep.

S. A. E TEAM CAPTURES
CAME FROM FIJI FIVE
Kappa Delta Phi is Winner
Over Alpha Beta Chi
The 8. A. E. basketball team won a
16 to 11 victory over the Fiji quintet
yesterday evening. The game was fast
and both teams showed a good brand
of team work and fight. More like
a football game with basketball rules,
the game was rough and hardfought
by both teams from beginning to the
end. For the 8. A. E. team the stellar
playing of King and Farley made pos
sible the winning of the game. Flynn
and Brown for the Iosots played good
fast basketball. In spite of the excel
lent team work both teams were poor
in shooting which helped to keep the
score down. At the close of the first
half the 8. A. E. team seemed to have
a walkaway with nine points in the
lead. However, in the second half the
Fiji team came back with renewed
fight and brought the score up to 11
to 16. Their loss was due to poor
shooting, more than anything else.

King 5 .F.. 2 Chiles
Crandall 2 .F. 5 Brown

In a listlessly flayed game the Kappa
Delta Phi team walked away from the
Alpha Beta Chi team by the lopsided
score of 40 to 4. Team work was
rotten and both teams showed a lack
of practice and of speed that was in
sharp contrast to the other game played
yesterday. Tetz for the winner was
the outstanding man on the team. He
looped a total of 19 points. Miller for
the Alpha Beta Chi team made the en
tire number of points for the losers.

It Pays to A
Pay Cash!

The saving of the difference between “cash
prices and “charge” or “credit prices” is enough
to turn the tide of affairs in many families that
today are bordering on despair.
Every business man knows the advantages that
are to be had in cash transactions.
The J. C Penney Company sells for cash and
thus always has the money to pay cash for its
purchases. Large savings are thus obtained.
Buying for less, we sell for less, and, as is seen
your cash purchases here save you many dollai
in the course of a year.
