HOMECOMING EDITION
OF OLD OREGON OUT
Issue Contains Pictures of
0. A. C. Football Team
Tbe Homecoming edition of Old Ore
gon made its appearance recently brim
full of interesting material. Among
articles noteworthy is “Under Gargoy
les,” second of a series on the deans
of the University. In this issue a per
sonality sketch by Henry D. Sheldon,
dean of the school of education is
given.
“Brother Driver and Others of His
Day,” by Herbert C. Thompson, I takes
one back to University days of 1890.
This is the third article Mr. Thompson
has written for Old Oregon and it will
be followed up in a coming number
by an article dealing with a teacher
of English, rhetoric, and elocution of
the very early days of our University.
Mr. Thompson was an Oregon student
in the early nineties and is at present
on the editorial staff of the New York
Mail.
A picture of O. A. C. football players
is featured. Old Oregon has never be
fore used a picture of an opposing team,
but it was thought that it might be
interesting to see in black and white
just what kind of aggregation our men
will have to meet.
Oregon football teams of 1895 and
1919 are other pictures, also a group
photograph of the class of 1897—con
sisting of six members—and of the
class of 1893 holding a reunion at
Homecoming give us a hint as to how
much the University has grown. Then
there is news of classes telling who. is
doing what, and where. In addition
are several articles on Homecoming.
“Because about two weeks elapse
from the time Old Oregon goes to the
press till it is ready for distribution
and mailing, we use a good deal of
magazine material,” explains Grace
Edgington, editor of the publication.
“It is necessary to plan material about
one month ahead. Although it seems
to be the general opinion that Old Ore
gon is read mainly on the campus, most
of the readers are not in the University
and not all of them are even former
students.”
Among special editions of Old Oregon
that will probably appear during the
year, one will be an issue on research
work done in different departments on
the campus, especially science. Another
edition will take the Portland center
of the University of Oregon as a spe
cial subject. Many graduates do not
know about this center, which is a
development of the last few years.
DR. E. I* WILLIAMS TO BE
SPEAKER AT ASSEMBLY
(Continued from page one)
on armaments. Since 1918 he has held
the position of professor of Oriental
languages and literature at the Univer
sity of California. He has had pub
lished numerous books and articles on
Ear Eastern Affairs.
The statement as given out by the
president’s office regarding the change
in assembly hours and Friday classes
is as follows:
. “The assembly, which would normal
ly fall Thursday morning, November
22 4s being shifted to Friday morning,
November 23, at eleven o’clock, in the
Woman’s building. Friday eleven
o’clock classes are expected to meet at
the normal assembly hour, namely^
Thursday morning at eleven.
“Classes will be held as usual on
Friday, both afternoon and evening,
for all students except members of the
freshman class. Both men and women
of this class are excused by faculty
legislation of last fall. No classes will
be held on Saturday.”
FRIDAY NOISE CARNIVAL
TO BE HOWLING SUCCESS
(Continued from page one)
the tunes that can be persuaded from
the lumber biters are many.
Tractors, steam rollers and anything
else that will move will see action in
the parade. Auto trucks, busses,
wagons and maybe a few sleighs will
haul some of the boistorous multitude
down town. *
The young freshlets ail already
gathering fuel for the sacrifice to the
God of Noise and everything points to
a scorching blaze. Thursday will see
it mounting skyward and Friday even
ing will see it mount still higher and
then the crowd of screech artists will
meander down to the armory.
On the way the sirens will bellow,
the claxons will clack, the saws will
ring, lungs will burst, and on top of
that the devotees will let fly a pyro
technic barrage of Eoman candles, pin
wheels and anything else sent in the
fiendish collection of explosives.
At the armory everyone will howl
some more and then some will get all
pepped up and talk a whole lot and
then there will be more howling, and
then some one else will talk, and so
on and so on until everyone has talked
and told all the things they know about
the Aggies and everyone has howled
until they can’t howl.
At the end of the performance of
howl and talk everyone will agree with
everyone else, that they will meet each
other out at Bill Hayward’s arena
where the drama Scrap and Sawdust
will be put on by 22 young huskies, a
referee, an umpire and the students
are the mob.
ENGLISH GAMES TO BE
SUBJECT OF LECTURE
Colonel Leader to Talk Before Physical
Education Majors Today in Men’s
Gymnasium at 9 o’Clock
English games will be the subject of
the talk to be given by Colonel John
Leader before the physical education
majors today in the lecture room on
the men's gymnasium at 9 o ’dock. Any
one interested is invited to attend the
lecture, according to the announcement
of Harry Scott, director of physical
education.
Colonel Leader’s enthusiastic interest
in American games at the University
has made him a well loved figure on
the campus. His knowledge of English
games is more extensive than that of
American games and his talks are al
ways interesting.
Colonel Leader lectured to the class
at the first of the week. He deplored
the fact that the men in the University
were not interested more in minor
sports. The major sports attract large
turnouts and are supported by students
while the minor sports are in a way
neglected, however, through no fault
of the coaches and instructors, but
through the small amount of interest
aroused in the students. In England,
says Colonel Leader, the student must
be able to play at least five games
and although he is out for a major
sport he is required to take minor
sports on the side. An English college
student is require^ to spend four hours
a day on the practice field and in some
sort of athletic game.
The colonel heartily endorsed the
sports program that the department of
physical education is putting over.
COMPLETED CHEM. LAB.
GIVES ADDED SPACE
Interesting Year in Store for Chem.
Majors: Will Mean New Advanced
Courses.
With the completion of the new
chemistry laboratory, the majors of
that department are "looking forward
to a year of interesting work. The
greatest advantage of the new quar
ters, according to Professor O. F. Staf
ford, head of the department, lies in
the additional amount of space, which
has been more than doubled. “Hereto
fore we have been so crowded,” he
said, “that scarcely anything could be
accomplished.”
Unlike last year, the freshmen will
now be able to take their regular
course of work in this department. Last
year they could only be in the labora
tory about half the time, and even
then the sections were alternated.
The added space also gives an op
portunity to do advanced laboratory
work. “Before the new laboratory was
completed, “Professor Stafford said, “a
number of advanced courses were
virtually crowded out of existence.”
In spite oi these improvements over
the old laboratory, however, Professor
Stafford is of the opinion that more
space and added facilities are nedeed.
He mentioned that the president of the
American Chemistry society passed
through Eugene recently, after a na
tionwide inspection of university chem
istry laboratories. After examining the
laboratory of this University, he pro
nounced its equipment the poorest of
any he had seen.
FIJIS LEAD LEAGUE
“A” WITH NO DEFEATS
(Continued from page one)
good record up to the last two games,
seem to have struck a slump, as did the
Sigma Chis. The players aren’t show
ing the same dash and fight that they
have in previous encounters.
The Betas, who are fighting an up
hill fight towards the top, stand out
as a slight favorite over the Phi Delts
for that reason. Their team work is
good and their shooting above the av
erage. The Phi Delts are a hard team
to “dope.” At times they play like
champions and at other times very bad
ly. However, with Hobson and other
stars in their lineup they should give
a good account of themselves and make
the going hot for the Betas.
SLIDES AND FILMS ARE
AVAILABLE FOR CAMPUS
Many Departments Make Use of
Material to be Secured From
University
Slides and films owned by the Uni
versity extension division, while de
signed for use in the state at large,
are available also for the campus and
are ordinarily widely used here, accord
ing to Alfred Powers, of the visual in
struction department of the extension
division.
Dr. H. B. Torrey, of the zoology de
partment, recently showed a two-reel
film to his elementary class, making
use of the extension division’s material.
Yesterday the military department used
a two-reel film on bayonet training,
the film being paTt of a series on dif
ferent phases of military work.
Professor George Turnbull, of the
| school of journalism, has prepared a
series of slides on headline writing,
(actually reproducing on the screen
various kinds of suitable heads for
newspapers.
Each year, Miss Lilian Tingle’s
classes find several pictures of par
ticular application to their work, and
these are also shown by the extension
division.
Dr. Warren D. Smith, head of the
geology department, has found in the
geography collection of the extension
division a large amount of available
material which he uses frequently, ac
, cording to Mr. Powers.
The extension division cooperates in
providing suitable films for the school
of business administration, Mr. Powers
said, as Dean E. C. Bobbins has found
that an annnal program of moving pic
tures is of great advantage in his
work.
In addition to the use of slides on
the campus, the University high school
also has used a large number of slides
and films, Mr. Powers declared, and is
now planning to use a series of mo
tion pictures for regular school work.
"The extension division has pub
lished a catalogue of slides and films,”
Mr. Powers said, "and any department
interested in these can secure a cata
logue upon request.”

"Irene,” which was viewed by a large
number of students last night.
The present cast of the musical
comedy has been playing together for
the last four years and this experience
has given a pleasing smoothness to
their production, although it may also
have toned down some of their en
thusiasm.
The contention that people laugh at
unusual things was borne out last night
by the laughter and applause which
greeted the two eccentric dances by
“Mme. Lucy” and his two little man
nequins. Perhaps the students saw in
the elongated funmaker a similarity
to their own Hunk Latham, also long
and angular, and cheered for this rea
son. And who knows— maybe in the
termagant Mrs. O’Dare they imagined
Miss Pinneo of the jolly disposition
making merry.
“Irene” has been here before and
will probably be back again. A cer
tain student must have had this per
petuity in mind when he made the
suggestion between the acts that the
show be made a part of the University
curricula. The crowd last night seemed
to be quite willing to take Miss Dale
Winter ““Irene,” as a teacher.
