Will Hold Meeting Tonight
With an intensely concentrated cam
paign outlined for speedy and efficient
work, the annual Y. W. C. A. finance
drive opens Thursday, November 6 for
three days of active canvassing, closing
Thursday, November 8. The estimated
budget for the year calls for $1600 to
be raised by the campus women. Be
fore any official drive had been
planned, members, of Delta Omega gave
$18.
Luella Hausler Directs Drive
Luella Hausler is general chairman
of the campaign with Margaret Sey
mour serving as assistant. They have
a picked committee which holds its
first meeting tonight at the Y. W.
bungalow from 6 o’clock until about
7:30. Dinner will be served, and it is
planned to discuss general plans for
the drive and it is hoped an intense
interest and enthusiasm may be worked
up over the drive. Dean Virginia Judy
Esterly will address the women at' the
meeting, as will also Florence Mago
wan, the new Y. W. C. A. secretary on
the campus this year. Katherine Wat
son, v'ho was financial manager last
year will give a few pointers on the
drive. At a strictly business meeting
to be held next Monday at the Anch
orage, each committee member will be
given a definite outlined plan of work,
and everything set for the opening of
the campaign on Tuesday. It is
plajnned tha*t e'ach organized; g^oup
will take up the matter at its house
meeting next Monday night.
Oroup Head Chosen
Either on Monday night or Tuesday
noon, workers for the drive will go
to each house to talk up the campaign.
One person has been appointed to take
charge of the drive at each of the
living organizations, three have been
appointed for each of the three halls
of residence, and one for women’s
Oregon club.
Last year’s budget called for $1400
which was raised in a most successful
campaign. The average pledge for
last year was $2.50. With the increased
enrollment, the campaign workers feel
there should be an equally big drive
this year.

express their support of the drive, and
urge all University women to do theii
part in giving pledges for the good
of the Y. W. C. A. Each year the
town women do nearly as much on
raising the funds as do the campus wo
men. This year the town women are
raising $1500.
Pipes. Projecting
Through Windows
Belch Out Smoke
Should clouds of curling smoke
be seen coming from the windows
of the extension division, it will
not necessarily mean that that
building is soon to be consumed in
flames, but merely that it is a
stove pipe projecting through the
window that omits the dense haze.
Since the extension building was
moved last summer, to make more
room for the new power plant, it
has not been connected with the
University heating system.
Little portions of heat have been
furnished by an electric warmer in
each room, These, however, sta
tioned on the floor or a chair, did
not prove satisfactory. All sen
sations of warmth came intensely
from one place, leaving the rest of
the room frigid.
So it was decided to install a
stove until the building is con
nected with the new power plant,
which will not be done until some
time after the holidays. As there
is no chimney, the somewhat primi
tive but nevertheless effective
means of terminating the stove
pipe out the window will be
adopted.
FROSH ARE ORIGINAL
IN PLANS FOR BONFIRE
Fire to Precede Rally—Then
Will Parade to Armory
Plans were formulated and com
mittees appointed for the biggest bon
fire in the memory of any Homecoming
alumnus at the freshmen meeting held
yesterday afternoon in Villard hall.
Jack High, assistant homecoming chair
man, first spoke to the boys, outlining
plans and making suggestions. A new
plan was suggested, and is to be tried
out by the committee. Details of the
plan are not forthcoming since it is to
be kept a secret between the homecoming
committee and the freshmen. It has
been decided to hold the bonfire be
fore the noise parade this year, instead
of afterwards as has been done, in for
mer years. At the time of the fire, pep
talks will be held followed by the big
parade and a rally at the armory.
“Freshmen should all turn out for
the construction of the bonfire without
being urged,” said High. “They cannot:
afford to miss it as it is one of the
biggest events of their college careers.”
Clifford Zehrung, chairman of the
bonfire committee, then outlined plans
for the building of the fire. The work
of locating the materials will start at
once, he said, and they must all be as
sembled and ready to start construction
by the Thursday noon before Homecom
ing week-end. The construction will
start at that time and will be finished
by Friday noon. In the meantime the
w'eary frosh will be regaled with hot
coffeei and doughnuts by a committee
of freshmen girls.
Committees as appointed last night by
Zehrung are: Materials, Ted Wagen
blast, chairman; Laurence Biddle, Al
vin Johnson, Rowland Parker.
Transportation, chairman, Irving
Brown; Bob Love, Dick Nance.
Construction, chairman, Harold Har
don; A1 Westergren, Blair Alderman.
Touch off, chairman, Ralph Staley;
Berwyn Maple, Ben Lee.
Vigilance, chairman, Earl Chiles; Ted
Ruch, Cloyd Sturdevant.
Guard, chairman, Frank Rhinehart;
Phil Shulte, Wilton Roberts, Allan
Woolley.
“These men will be assistants to the
chairmen and will themselves appoint
other men to help them with their
work,” said Zehrung. Any freshman
who prefers to help on some special com
mittee should report to Zehrung at the
S. A. E. house.
Allied Art's League Gambols
in a Bohemian Atmosphere
Apples on strings, Michelangelo’s
Dot id adorned with a crepe paper
necktie, a picture gallery of some of
the campus celebrities—these were only
a few of the things that added to the
bohemian “atmosphere” of the party
given by the Allied Arts league last
night in the studio in the architecture
building.
A silhouette contest was the first on
the program. First prize was won by
Arthur Gray for his portrait of Fk*
Junker. Winner of seeond was Clar
ence Irwin, with a silhouette of Mr.
and Mrs. Barnes. Lloyd Terrill was
third with the Campbell kids.
The studio held easels with paintings
of personages sueh as Dean Lawrence,
Professor Schroff, "Mike” Angelo, aad
many labeled only with initials, all
bearing, however, a remarkable likeness
to pumpkin heads in various expres
sions.
Fook Tai Lau rendered “ The Pavilion
of Tant Wang,” to add mystery to the
occasion, and it turned out to be a
real mystery, since he chanted from
the top of a table in the original
Chinese.
Following the pumpkin pie-eating
contest and auction, dancing was the
diversion, despite the fact that the
studio floor is half cement.
Mr. and Mrs. Avard Fairbanks, Mr.
and Mrs. Eyler Brown, Miss Maude J.

ILLY PLANNED BY
PORTLAND ALUMNI
Luncheon on Saturday to Urge
Support for Game as Well
as For Smoker and Rally
NOISE MAKERS IN DEMAND
Students Will Parade Through
Portland Before the Game
and Reach Field! in Group
The Portland alumni are taking a
hand and making preparations for
staging the largest Oregon rally that
has ever graced the streets of the Bose
city. All of the old timers who are
able will be on deck to join the mul
titude of under-grads who are expected
to journey to Portland to see the Stan
ford game on November 10.
Lyle Brown, who used to lead the
“Oskies” here on the campus, will have
charge of the rally that will give the
fair city in the north a baptism of
Oregon Fight and he is already send
ing out the cry for student support.
He is also broadcasting a plea for
every sort of noise maker that the hu
man brain is capable of conceiving.
Grads Urged to Return
In preparation the alumni are giving
a lunch, November 3, to urge support
at the Stanford game as well as at the
smoker and rally. They will also en
courage the grads to show up here for
the Oregon-O. A. C. game, Homecoming.
(Although they do not expect them to
need much urging.) At this lunch,
Dean Esterly, Jack Benefiel and Virgil
Earl will be “among those present.”
Brown will instill a little more pep by
leading a few of the college yells.
“Dutch” Young is in charge of the
lunch.
Stag Smoker Friday
At 8 p. m. Friday night, November 9,
every student and alumnus is expected
to show up at the Multnomah club
to take part in the stag smoker. The
University quartet and band will par
ticipate in the evening’s entertainment
and several grads and students will
speak. A 40 piece band is expected
and to leave no excuse for the band
members not appearing, their expenses
will be paid. All students who can
leave on the two o’clock train from,
Eugene are requested to do so, so that
all can go to the smoker and rally.
After the indoor sport at the club,
a noise parade and rally will form and
will march through the streets of Port
land. The grads want everyone to
march. To make the parade a Teal
“noise parade” each organization on
this campus is asked to get in com
munication with its alumni chapter in
Portland and to beg, borrow, steal or
invent some sort of a noise vehicle,
“such as,” says Benefiel, “a steam
roller, a tractor, an armored auto or a
tank.” These ear-deafeners will be
put into the parade.
Serpentine on Saturday
Saturday at 12:30, a rally in charge
of Jack Myers will start from the Im
perial hotel and will serpentine through
the business section of the city up to
Multnomah field. The time from 2 to
2:30 will be devoted to ceremonies,
with Keith Kiggins in charge. It is
hoped that stunts can be arranged to
take place between the halves. Any
student who has an idea for a clever
stunt for this purpose is requested to
turn it in to the Emerald editor or to
Jack Myers. The men in charge, hope
to work up something in which the
girls can take a part. Cheer up, girls,
even if you don’t get to go to the
smoker, maybe they’ll let you march
in the Saturday rally and yell at the
game.
Student tickets to the game can be
bought at the Co-op and will be priced
at one dollar. There will be a reserved
section for rooters. Auto stickers ad
vertising the game can be obtained at
the Co-op.
Robert Kuykendal is president of the
alumni and he urges all students in
behalf of the alumni to get behind
them with all their pep to put over
the rallies with a bang.
MOZELLE HAIR GIVES TALK
_
| Speaker Attends Convention of Par
ent-Teacher Association
Miss Mozelle Hair, of the extension
> division, spoke before the state conven
tion of the Parent-Teacher association
at Medford on Friday, October 26, on
I “ Exceptional Children from the Socio
! logical Aspect."
! The last number of the Extension
Monitor which dealt wholly with the Par
ent-Teacher association, was distributed
at the convention. This number is cre
ating a good deal of interest in parent

quests for it are coming in from all
• parts of Oregon and the United States.
GUILD HALLSHOWS
HIMALAYAN DRAMA
Number of Local Actors Will
be Cast in Production of
the “Green Goddess” Soon
RAJAH PLAYED BY LARSEN
Play fs One of Adventure in
India; Love Element Will
Attract Romantic Co-eds
To find oneself a prisoner whose very
prison is made worse by the fact that
one is allowed all the privileges of or
dinary life and is expected to maintain
the good humor and savoir faire of every
day circumstances when the sentence
of certain death exists, would indeed be
a queer experience. It is in such a po
sition that the English men in the play,
“Green Goddess” find themselves.
Plot is Complicated
The Bajah of Bunk in this country of
the Himalayas is a very extraordinary
character who finds a strange and in
explicable pleasure in the persecution
of his prisoners in a most polished and
polite manner. The plot is somewhat
complicated by the presence of the man
Watkins, a somewhat dubious person
who seems to have a poor reputation
in the land of his birth and has found
his place as the valet of the redoubtable
Bajah, who is an Oxford graduate. The
love element is not lacking.
Not only is the Bajah struck with the
fair beauty of the English woman of the
group, but there is the doctor, who is
also in love with Mrs. Crespin. And
Major Crespin, the husband, is not an
altogether suitable man for the woman
who does after all care for the doctor.
Tonight at Guild hall the “Green God
dess” will be shown for the first time.
The scenery has been under construction
for days and will be of great interest to
the audience, it is thought. Properties
have been lent to the department, in
cluding an oriental lamp, for use in this
production.
Bajah Played by Larsen
Darrel Larsen will play the part of the
Bajah, that role in which George Arliss
was seen to advantage. Charlotte Ban
field will play opposite him as Mrs.
Crespin, the only woman in the play.
Virgil Mulkey is cast as Major Crespin,
a selfish, swaggering fellow who shows
he has something of a gentlemen in
him after all.
Dave Swanson, who first came into
prominence in Guild hall last year, will
play the role of the doctor who is in
love with Mrs. Crespin.
The ticket sale is now on, the cur
tain rising on the first night at 8:30
sharp.
R. 0. T. C. MAY COMPETE
IN HEARST RIFLE SHOOT
Publisher Sponsors Nation-Wide Rifle
Contest Among University
Military Departments
William Randolph Hearst, well-known
publisher, is sponsoring a nation-wide
rifle contest between members of thfl
various university military departments
over the country. A bulletin giving in
formation has been received by the local
R. O. T. C., and Lieutenant-Colonel W.
S. Sinclair is very enthusiastic over the
prospects. Oregon has some fine marks
men in the R. O. T. C., and if thq men
take an interest in the competition, her
chances are good.
A handsome cup is to be awarded an
nually to the winning team, and victory
three years in succession entitles the
school to permanent possession of it.
The members of the winning team are
to be presented with gold medals, and
the man making the highest individual
score will be awarded a sharpshooter’s
medal. Hearst himself offers the
prizes and suggests that army officials
determine the rules.
Since the contest is national there will
be many teams entered in the shooting.
Each team will consist of ".even member s,
although only the five highest scores
w'll be counted.
Do-nut practice is progressing very
good, and the men who place high in the
do-nut matches will undoubtedly be pick
ed to represent the University in the
Hearst competition.
| JESSIE THOMPSON HAS NEW
POSITION ON THE OREGONIAN
I Jessie Thompson, ’23 journalism

I shack last year, is now women’s club
I editor for the Portland Oregonian.

I letter received on the campus, Misi

Pi Phi and Phi Delt
Vocalists Put on
Singing Down Duel
“Oh, here's to our Phi Beits, our
Phi Delta,
We love ’em, we love ’em, we
love ’em.”
A wabbling wail of feminine
voices arose and poured forth its
passionate strain. Back came the
gallant response in manly, uncer
tain braying.
“Oh, here’s to our Pi Phis, our
Pi Phis
We love ’em, we love ’em
we love ’em.”
This exchange of compliments
and sentiments was encouraged by
the sympathetic reception of each
party of contestants. Each group
of vocal combatants urged and ap
plauded the laryngeal operations
of the other in a burlesque seren
ade between the Pi Phis and Phi
Delta.
Alas, only a balcony, a rose, a
guitar, the dreamy air of Spain
were lacking. With these aecout
reftients, the serenade would have
been a realistic production.
After a thirty minute duel in
vocal efforts, the feminine and
masculine artists closed the per
formance with a song of (much
needed) sympathy. And if during
( the night, some one muttered “I’ll
dream of you, dear,” the riot call
was not turned in.
MEN’S gTeeIILEAVE
ON TRIP NORTH TODAY
Two Appearances are Arranged
for Members of Club
The men’s glee club leaves this af
ternoon on the first trip outside the
state for several years. Twenty men,
besides director John Stark Evans and
manager Ted Baker, will make the
journey on which concerts will be
given in Walla Walla and Pullman,
Washington. The trip is made at the
invitation of the W. S. C. glee club.
The first appearance will be at
Walla Walla Thursday night, and for
this concert a program has already
been arranged which consists of the
following numbers: “Men of Harlech,”
Brewer; “Invictus,” Huhn; and the
“Oregon Pledge", John Stark Evans,
by the entire chorus. The solo num
bers will be “Sylvia,” Speaks, by
Aubrey Furry, basso; “Scherzo in E
Minor,” Mendelssohn, by Ronald Reid,
pianist; and “Ah, Moon of My De
light,” Lehman, by Roy Bryson, tenor.
There will be two feature numbers,
“The Bolshevik Duo,” by Siemon
Muller and Dale Cooley, and a soft
shoe dance by Lyle Palmer. The
“varsity” quartet, composed of Adams,
Evans, Karpenstein and Furry will
sing a group of Oregon songs.
Friday night the club will give a
joint concert with the Washington
State College glee club at Pullman,
and a different program, composed of
several of the above numbers will
be given. Saturday the club will form
the Oregon rooting section at the Ore
gon-W. S. C. football game, and will
be back in Eugene Sunday evening.
OREGON SOCCER TEAM
TO PLAY AT CORVALLIS
First Intercollegiate Game Held in Two
Years. Coach Fahl Issues Call
For Goal Tender
The Oregon-O. A. C. soccer meet is
definitely settled, and will take place
on the Corvallis campus, Nov. 10 ac
cording to word given out by Coach
Fahl who is handling the aspirants to
the soccer team. An increased interest
has been shown in the sport during
the week, and enough men turned out
I last night, so that two teams were
I formed and scrimmage was held. About
thirty men have signed up for the
sport which has such a following in
the Canadian universities and more men
are coming out each night.
| Very little interest has been shown
i in soccer for the past two years and
as a result, there has been no intercol
legiate competition. The last game was
played at Corvallis two years ago when
the soccer squad was under the tutelage
; of Dean Dyment. The game resulted in
I a victory for the Ag booters. This
year the men, under Coach Fahl, have
. been practicing faithfully and will at
| tempt to wipe out the memory of the
Aggie victory.
The men'who have been showing up
the beBt in the nightly practice sessions
are Maxwell, Robinson, Giovando,
Mevig, Pil, and Lau. As yet, however,
Fahl is without the services of an ex
perienced goal tender and has issued
a call for men to try out for that or
, any other position.

FROSH TO BUTTLE
UNFED COLLEGE
Yearlings to Meet Delegation
From McMinnville Saturday
Game Promises to be Tough
BABES IN SHAPE FOR SCRAP
Monmouth Normal Defeated by
Visitors 81 to 6; Rooks Still
Thought Heaviest Opponents
From Jack Benefiel’s office cornea
the word that the freshmen will have
another football game on the home
gridiron. He announces that he has
secured a tilt with the Linfield
college team, for next Saturday to try
their luck with the freshman eleven
which performed so nobly in its game
against Columbia last week. The only
available information on the Linfield
squad is that it hung up an 81 to 6
victory over Monmouth normal grid
sters. This does not necessarily in
dicate that the McMinville crew is a
world beater, but it must be a pretty
fast aggregation to run up 81 points.
Books Look Dangerous
It was a big surprise to the followers
of the frosh football team when it
turned in a victory over the much
heralded Columbia team last week, and
it makes the prospects for a win over
the O. A. C. rooks much rosier. This
far, however, the rooks still look like
the most dangerous opponents that
Oregon’s youngsters will have to face.
The University of Washington fresh
men, who journey down here to meet
the Oregon frosh November 17, took
a 19 to 6 beating from Bellingham
normal last Saturday, the report state
ing that the purple and gold freshmen
were badly outplayed.
Last Friday’s game brought out
some points about the freshman team
that, until the game, were a matter of
conjecture. One point that was brought
out very strongly is that the freshmen
have a dangerous line plunger in
Jones. They have a good kicker and
passer in Fred Harrison, who also
handles the team in a cool, precise
manner. His worst short coming is
that his voice is hardly equal to the
occasion of an hour’s signal barking.
Another thing of note is that the year
lings have both a good aerial offense
and a good defense against a passing
attack.
The freshman line is not as heavy
as that of some of the other teams
of its class but that it is a fast charg
ing line was demonstrated in the game
last Friday when a frosh lineman
broke through and blocked a Columbia
punt. C. Johnson, at center, L. “Tiny”
Johnson, at right guard, and Carter,
at left guard, form a trio that keeps
the eenter of the line intact. The
guards are plenty fast enough to get
around to the strong side of the line
and get into the interference and this
is a large factor in the success of most
of the line bucks as played by the
freshmen.
Ends Gain Experience
The ends and the tackles have been
performing up to standard, but on sev
eral occasions in the game with Colum
bia, the frosh ends allowed themselves
to be boxed in running down a punt
and as a consequence, the play went
around them.
Although Saturday’s game will not be
of great importance to the fans, because
of the fact that there is nothing in
the nature of a feud existing between
the two teams, it will be a great help
to the freshmen, win or lose, from the
point of experience gained. They will
need all the experience they can get
before meeting the rooks this year, as
the Aggie babes are reputed to be
fast and heavy.
OREGON MEN AT HARVARD
Former Students Attend Graduate
School at Cambridge
Hubert L. Smith, E. W. Thompson
and G. F. Yoran, former University of
Oregon students and graduate* of the
University of Oregon school of business
administration, are in attendance at
the Harvard graduate school of busi
ness administration.
For .wo years a few men have been
permitted to enter this school in Febr
uary. As a result of experience with
these students the school is now pre
pared to offer the same courses of
study available to those who enter in
September. This action has been taken
in order to meet the increasing de
mand on the school for admission to its
courses and should attract the interest
of men who will have completed the
requirements for their college degree
at mid-year and who would, therefore,
under the usual program lose at least
five months before beginning their pro
fessional career.
