WORKERS TO HAVE HOLlbAY
Women of ’27 Will Serve Lunch
to All Men on Field Friday;
Meals Will be Sole Delay
The frosh bonfire, which will be the
first big event of Homecoming, is pro
gressing rapidly. Much material for
the big blaze is already on the grounds
and work .will be started by the whole
class on Thursday afternoon.
Friday has been designated a holi
day for the entire class of ’27, in order
to facilitate the work for the fire. All
freshmen, men and women will be ex
cused from Friday’s classes. Those
who are not actually engaged upon the
work at the time will be expected to
attend the assembly. This will include
probably all the freshman girls and
possibly part of the men.
Works Starts Thursday.
Thursday at 1 o’clock is the hour
when the work begins, but men are
not expected to miss class on Thurs
day afternoon, and will not be asked
to report until after their last class
Thursday. The building of the pyre will
continue through all of Thursday night
and all day Friday.
At 1 a.m. Friday, the girls of ’27
will serve coffee and hot-dog sand
witches to the workers on the field.
Frances Morgan is in charge of the
feeding program. Except for meals
there will be no intermissions in the
construction work.
New Plan for Fire
The fire this year is to be spectacular
and swift. Larger than ever, it is to
be fired swiftly and burn brilliantly
for a short time, that there may be
no delay in the start of the noise par
ade. The problem of building this sort
of fire was solved bv the physics de
partment of the University. The struc
ture is to be composed almost entirely
of boxes, and 1,000 gallons of waste oil
will be used upon it.
Frost Have Tasks
Clifford Zehrung, chairman of the
frosh bonfire committee is confident
that all freshmen men will do their
part in making this year’s fire a suc
cess. A particular job is to be, as
signed every freshman before he reports
for work on Thursday afternoon. The
vigilance committee will take the at
tendance at times during the building
of the fire.
“The chairman of the bonfire com
mittee is a live wire and the boys are
working hard and harmoniously,” says
Jack High, assistant Homecoming
chairman. “As usual it will be a very
laborious and trying job, but it will be
valuable experience for the freshmen.”
Freshmen who are taking charge of
the various branches of bonfire work
are: materials, Ted Wangenblast;
transportation, Irving Brown; construc
tion, Harold Harden; touch-off, Ralph
Staley; vigilance, Earl Chiles; guard,
Frank Reinhart.

FRIENDLY TAKES GAME
FROM PHI PSI QUINTET
Both Teams Now Tied for First
Place in League; Betas Win
The 18 to 15 defeat of the Phi Kappa
Psi quintet by the Friendly Hall five
yesterday afternoon reversed all previ
ous “doping” of the two teams, and
brought them into a tie for first place
in league A, each having two wins and
one defeat. The game was close and
hotly contested throughout, with neither
team holding a commanding lead at
any time during the contest. Both
teams checked closely and worked the
ball down well with clever passing and
fast dribbling. The shooting of both
squads was also good, with each making
an iaverage number of shots in the
pinch.
The Phi Psis led at the end of the
first half by a one point margin, 6 to 5.
They. also piled, up a fair lead at the
beginning of the second period, but
were passed by a brilliant spurt of the
Friendly Hall basketeers just before
the finish of the game. The issue was
in doubt until the final fifteen seconds
of play, when Reed dropped the ball in
the basket which cinched the game for
Friendly. Benson and Reed starred for
the winners and Harding and Peterson
for the losers.
There was another radical upslt in
the do-nut baskeball dope when the
Beta Theta Pi team defeated the strong
Sigma Chi quintet by the score of 18
to 13 in the game last night.
The Sigma Chi’s showed up well in
the first round of the do-nut tourna
ment and were doped to give the other
teams in the league a hard run for the
cup. "
The game was fast, with both teams
playing good ball. Wistegrene looked
good for the winners. Stoddard for
the losers • played his usual brand of
fast basketball and scored six points,
while Reinhart followed second with
three. Westregren scored six points.
Gunter and Terrill both lopped four.
DELTA ZETA WINS FAST GAME
FROM KAPPA KAPPA GAMMA
In one of the cleanest, fastest games
played so far this season, Delta Zeta
beat Kappa Kappa Gamma last night
with a score of 11 to 5. The teams
were fairly well matched, the Delta
Zetas surpassing their rivals in team
work. Ellean Fargher, forward; Pat
Gregory and Easter Craddock, guards,
were the stellar players for the win
ners. Docothjr McKee starred for the
Kappas. Hild# Chase referred the
game.
“Dover Road” Has Surprise
Ending; Pleases Audience
(By Leon K. Byrne.)
Despite ,certain insufficiencies, the
three-act comedy, “Dover Boad,” pre
sented last night at the Heilig, by
Mask and Buskin, honorary dramatic
fraternity, was well produced and was
generally approved by the audience.
The play deals with one Latimer,
wealthy Englishman, and his house on
the road to Dover, where he entices
young romantic couples who seek toj
flee from the banalties of life, show
ing them that although they may suc
ceed in eluding the harsh realities of j
English life, they cannot get away from
themseives.
The play has an unconventional end-1
^ng—the errant lovers are not cast in
a final clinch, and as the curtain is
rung down the various threads of the
plot are not nicely collected and tied— [
a voice from without announces a new
ease for the investigation of Mr.
Latimer, and the fair ones in the
audience gasp, “Oh, why didn’t he
marry her?”
Of Darrell Lareen, who took the part
of Latimer, let it be said that he was
not Darrell Larsen acting the part of
Latimer, he was Latimer himself. This
consistency of interpretation could
hardly be applied to any of the other
actors. However, were it not for the
fact that the audience was so intent
on Larsen’s interpretation, it might not
have been so willing to strain its ears
at intervals to catch his not always
so perfect enuncation.
We would place Katherine Pinneo
next on the list of approbation, for
she, more than any of the others, im
parted to her work the lightness and

WARNED EXHIBIT
GIVEN NEW ROOMS
Women’s League Gives Space
I as Mark of Appreciation tc
Donor of Art Collection
DEDICATION COMES FRIDAY
Receptiorv Planned to be Held
in New Museum’s Quarters;
Homecoming Guests Invited
The Woman’s league rooms on the
third floor of the Woman’s building
have been turned over to the use of
the Murray Warner Oriental art col
lection by the action of the women
of the University at their last league
meeting.
In giving up their quarters in the
building, members of the woman’s
league feel that they are expressing
their gratitude to Mrs. Warner for her
priceless gifts ttf the University, and
it is universally felt that these rooms
could serve no better purpose than {he
housing of so many of the new treasures
which have come to the campus re
cently. '
Opening Friday.
After the fdrmal dedication of the
newly arranged collection on Friday
morning at 11 o’clock the University
community will have the privilege of
viewing tlie gifts in the new quarters
which have been enlarged by the addi
tional space in the two club rooms and
by a room over tlie original museum
which was (discovered by Mrs. Warner
herself recently, and has been adapted
to the use of the art gallery.
Although the existance of this space
in the building was known it was not
generally realized as possible space for
the collection until Mrs. Warner in
vestigated this summer and found that
with a little reconstruction it could be
used to house a number of her treasures
in connection with the original room.
New Booms Arranged
The ingenious method which has
been taken under her direction to con
vert this space into a harmonious part
of the quarters of the museum will
be revealed only when the collection is
formally bpened on Friday. Until then
the work of those who are re-arrang
ing the Chinese collection progresses
in strictest privacy and no one will be
allowed to trespass in the vicinity of
the museum until the task is com
pleted.
The effectiveness of the display of
Manchu costumes which form an im
portant part of the Chinese exhibit
will be increased by the new arrange
ment on statutes which have been es
pecially made for the purpose and will
stand in realistic form in a separate
room set aside in one corner of the
display- spaee.
Suitable Museum Needed
The statue “The God of Mercy,” for
which a suitable place is not possible
on the museum floor, will be tempor
arily placed in the lobby of the first
floor, and bespeaks the immediate ne
cessity of a proper museum on the
campus, as does the fact that only a
part of the collection at a time can be
displayed in the limited space it now
occupies.
A reception in the museum rooms
will be held at the time of the re
opening of the collection to which all
Homecoming guests are invited. This
affair will be sponsored by the Woman’s
'league, and Gwadys Keeney has been
appointed to take charge of it. This
tea will be a special feature of Home
coming and all week-end guests are in
vited to attend, as well as townspeople
who come to the opening of the
museum. Tea will be served between
the hours of 3 and 5.
HELEN PRICE TO BE HERE
National Officer of Girls’ Reserve
Corps Will Instruct in Work.
Helen Price^ national officer of the
Y. W. C. A. in the girls’ reserve corps,
will be on the campus from Decernhe1
7 to December 10, to give instructional
courses in reserve work to all Uni
versity women who might be interested.
Miss Price will make a preliminary
visit on Monday, November 26, but will
not hold any meetings until December
7. She is traveling secretary for the
northwest division of the girls’ re
serve corps. During her stay on the
Oregon campus, it is planned to hold
seven or eight meetings in order that
as many as possible of the University
women who are interested or who plan
to take up such work may hear Miss
Price’s lectures.

Coach Reinhart Has Firsl
Workout in Gym, Although
Many are Still in Football
i -
TO USE BOHLER SYSTEM
! Prospects for a Winning Team
Very Good, With Seven
Lettermen Back and Eligible
Coach Reinhart officially opened
Oregon’s basketball training season
last night when he had a crew of as
pirants working out in the men’s gym.
The period of intensive training will
not open until after the Thanksgiving
holidays, by which time several letter
men in the hoop sport will be able to
doff their' moleskins, and don the
trunks of the indoor sport.
The prospects of shaping a winning
combination out of the available ma
terial, look the best since 1920 when
the Lemon-Yellow was nosed out of the
coast championship by California.
Seven Lettermen Back.
In all, the services of seven lettermen
are available, when Billy gets his crew
assembled. Add to this several 'of
last year’s freshman squad and the
men who graduate from the ranks of
the doughnut league and you have an
estimate of the basketball material on
the campus.
First of all, there are four of the
combination that played such a classy
brand of basketball last year untyil
sickness hit the ranks of the squad.
Hal Chapman and Earl Shafer did
guard duty under the Lemon-Yellow
basket and it was a well executed play
indeed that broke through the pair for
a score. Shafer is already out in a
suit and Chappy will be as soon as
football season is over.
XjtLliutm nates xugu
Hugh Latham worked at the pivot
position in 1920, but due to the fact
that he made a football trip to the
Hawaiian islands in 1921, he was un
able to pliiy that season. The big fel
low broke back into the game last
year, however, and was rated as one
of the best centers in the conference.
He was a mighty cog in the Oregon
scoring combination.
Gowans is the survivor of the
Gowans-Zimmerman combination, the
latter being ineligible due to his having
played in parts of several games dur
ing his sophomore year. Gowans was
the “find” of last year. His chi^ fault
last year was that he did no" have
sufficient stamina to bear up under a
heavy schedule, but with a year’s ex
perience, Russ should be a big worry
to any opposing guard.
To Use Bohler System
Of the remaining three basketball
lettermen, Haddon Rockhey is the
fastest of the trio but both Edlunds
and Alstock will be on hand to bat
tle for positions. Tlhappie King from
the frosh squad of two seasons ago
is on hand battling for a varsity berth.
Mautz, Farley, Hobson and Stoddard,
the remnants of last year’s frosh ag
gregation have signified their intentions
of joining the squad.
According to his own statement,
Reinhart will not attempt to change
the style of play, but will continue
! with Bohler basketball in which the
vete-ans are so well schooled. Plans
are now on foot to arrange a barn
storming trip for the basketball squad
during the Christmas holidays. In case
this trip is arranged, the games will
be played afer Christmas day.
WOMEN PRACTICE FOR
SWIMMING CONTESTS
Each Girl on Team Must Get in Eight
Practices Before Season Opens;
Rules are Announced.
Practices for women’s do-nut swim
ming are now going on in preparation

who participated in the do-nut eon; tits.
A new springboard has been placed
| in the pool, and will add to the con
venience of the girls during the swim

WINNAGEN MAILED TO
ALL PARTS OF WORLD
Homecoming Alumni Magazine Contains
Advance on Game, Cartoons and
Stories of Alumni
Copies of Winnagen, the annual
Homecoming paper put out for the
alumni, have been started on their long
journeys to all parts of the world to
take a little of the spirit of Homecom
ing to the old Oregon grads.
One paper is destined to cheer an
alum way off in Congo, another, to
take a breath of Oregon to Sidon in
Asia Minor. Several copies have been
sent to China, Japan, Hawaiia, Mexico,
Paris, London and Oxford. One was
addressed to Point Barrow, the most
northern past office in North America.
About 5,000 copies have been sent out
in all.
The Winniagen, “a newsy sheet for
noisy people,” contains advance stuff
on the game with O. A. G\, prophecy
ing a victory for Oregon, a welcome
extended to the alumni by Haddon
Rockhey, Homecoming chairman, and

Arc Light and Ghost Ball
Figure in Overtime Practices
on Hayward Field Nightly
BACKS WORKING NICELY
0. A. C. Fast Becoming Strong
Team as Evidenced by 3-3
Game With W. S. C. Squad
V'V' ■
Arc. lights and the ghost ball are
the favorite playthings of the varsity
squad in the final drive for the state
classic with the Oregon Aggies, Sat*
urday. *In an effort to get his men
in the best of shape, Huntington is
working them long after dark. The
linemen have been reporting early for
special sessions of tackling and the
overtime work is producing results.
If the gridsters don’t know anything
else, they will know something about
tackling. Spellman put them through
their paces last week, and they are
tackling fiercely now. At the present
time the team is getting in the best
shape of the season and with the pos
sible exception of Yonder Ahe, the
regulars will be ready for the yearly
battle with the aggregation from Cor
vallis. The big tackle may not be in
shape for the fray, but will likely see
service against the Huskies December
1.
Chapman to Hick.
With Terjesen back, the backfield is
working smoothly once more. Anderson
has been working at half and there
is a big chance that he will get in at
some stage of the battle. It is also
probable that Chapman will do the
kicking in the Homecoming go. His
boots are higher than those of Latham
and give the ends more time to get
down the field.
Zimmerman, letterman in basketball
and baseball, is taking a hack at the
pigskin game and looks good. He is
fast and a demon at snaring passes.
Ho will make the regulars hurry to
hold the assignment for the state cham
pionship game.
Vonder Ahe Absent
Besides Zimmerman, the Oregon
mentor has Bisley, Mautz, Williamson,
Kinney and Beed to select his ends
from. Yonder Ahe’s absence means
that Beed will be at a tackle berth
with Campbell at the other. Kinney
has boon used some at tackle and may
get a chance to show from that posi
tion. Gooding and Warren are two
other likely candidates for reserve
berths in case the regulars are taken
out.
Spellman wjll select his guards from
Shields, Mills, Bailey and Akers.
Shields has come from behind this year
and is playing a whale of a game. Spell
man’s selection will come from Mills
and Bailey, although Akers is coming
up fast and will have to be considered
when the selection is made.
Aggies Are Strong.
Kirtley, French and Poulsen, with
Anderson, form Huntington’s second
line of backs, and all stand a good
chance of seeing service.
In going against the Aggies, the
varsity is meeting a team that has
found itself and may prove a danger
ous outfit. The Aggies battled the
Cougars to a 3-3 draw. They will enter
the game somewhat heavier than the
locals. In this case it is likely that Fat
Wilson will be seen at center with his
207 pounds. Sinclair is much lighter,
but should see service.
Both teams are headed for the cellar
and a defeat for one will almost insure
it of the lowest niche, although Idaho
and W. S. C. are also contenders for
the lower rung in the championship
ladder.
Scrimmago will constitute part of the
next two day’s workouts and then the
squad will taper off until the whistle
sends them on their way against the Ag
gies in the twenty-sixth battle between
the two schools.
“DOINGS OF THE DOLLAR” WILL
BE SHOWN THIS AFTERNOON
Due to a misunderstanding over the
use of Villard hall, the Y. W. C. A. was
unable to show the movie, “Doings of
the Dollar” yesterday afternoon. How
ever, the picture will bo presented this
afternoon at 4:45 o’clock in Villard
hall, as the association has been as
