games, however, the play will be
governed by a set of rules posted
on the bulletin board in the gym
nasium, and will depend upon the
clean sportsmanship of the players
on the opposing teams.
The nineteen teams entering the
competition have been divided into
four leagues. A round robin will
be played and the two highest
teams in each league will enter an
other division, where they will play:
a straight elimination to decide the j
champion. The different divisions:
were chosen by lot so that all had
an equal chance in their choices, j
League A—Phi Sigma Pi, Kappa
Sigma, Sigma Ti Tau, Phi Kappa
Psi.

uled for tomorrow, contests will be;
played nearly every day and play:
in the iirst round will last well up
into February. The men on the
different house teams have been
playing together since their return
to school after the holidays and
many of them are members of last
year’s aggregations. Some of the
players are fast and have had con
siderable experience in the sport
of the boxed court, so that some
thrilling matches are in promise.
Especially in the light of the close
ness of seferal of the houses in
the race for the doughnut trophy
this year, some of the contests will
bo very hotly contested.

ingston, head of the health service.
The state board of health reports
many cases of contagious disease all
over the state and with the return

plenty of sleep, avoid infections, eat
regularly and moderately, breathe
slowly and deeply, keep clean inter

RETURN OF SPIRIT
OF PLAY IS IDEAL
(Continued from page one)
of true dramatic representation as !
found in the old, old, ballads and
primitive, middle and modern plays.”
Stuart Walker is not only a play
wright and poet, but he is a practical
man of the theatre, and Stuart Wal
ker, the practical man, has been able
to realize and quicken into life the
dreams of Stuart Walker, the dream
er.
Ilis interest iu the theatre began
as a small boy in Covington, Ky.
His father bought him a toy theatre
and he gave performances for the
neighborhood children. Later at col
lege, Mr. Walker was director' and :
actor in any number of amateur j
productions from Shakespeare to lb- 1
sen. After being graduated he went
into the lumber business, but this
proved entirely too prosaic an enter
prise, so he went to New York, sub
sequently becoming general stage
director and plav-reader for David
Belasco.
He resigned his position with Mr.
Belasco after six years in order to
exercise, without restraint, his own
ideas of imaginative play production.
He had an idea that mystery, and
youth, nud romance, had been lost
in the American theatre and that, the
reason was that there was too much
of gTim realism in it. He lectured
ou the imaginative staging of plays
for a time after leaving Mr. Belasco
and it was about this time that the
idea of the Portmanteau Theatre
was evolved.
GRAD HAS LEAD IN PLAY
Janet Young Appears at Portland
in “Mr. Pirn Passes By”
Janet Young, graduate of ’14, is
playing the lead in “Mr. Pirn:
Passes By,” in Portland this week.
She is with the Moroni Olsen

head of this company is a noted j
actor who played opposite Margeret
Anglin in New York for several
years.
Miss Young majored in the!
dramatic department when she was j
here. After she graduated she i
played with the Baker Stock com-1
pany in Portland for some time, j
Later she went into Chatuaqua,
playing with Ellison-White in the
United States, Canada, Australia
and New' Zealand. For several
years she was head of her town
companies in the Chnutaqua. She
played at the Salt Lake Social Hall
theatre for a season and wont
from there to New York, where she
was leading lady for Maurice
Browne. For the last two years she
,has been holding a responsible posi
tion with the Swarthmore Cliatau
qua at Swarthmore, Pennsvt "inia as
assistant business manager. Last
summer she played an important!
part in the organization of the
Moroni Olsen players, who are in
Portland now.
At the Theatres
o----*•
HEX
At the Bex theatre last evening
, the writer was given an opportunity
to pass judgment on the screen
version of the Hutchinson story “If
Winter Comes,” which M illiam
Pox has produced, under the di
rection of Harry Millarde.
The verdict was overwhelmingly
in favor of the picture. Headers of
I book were delighted to find that
the qualities which had made it
such a popular success were all in
cluded in the screen version. From
the skilful handling of the scenery
to the selection of the members of
the excellent cast and the shooting,
, titling and cutting of the film each
, step in putting the novel into pic
j ture form is marked by a fine
s artistic sense and strict fidelity to
the famous story.
CASTLE
Booth Tarkington, famous Ameri
can author, who wrote “Boy of
Mine,” the First National picture
now showing at the Castle theatre,
playing today and Wednesday, has
I written Producer .1. K. McDonald
to the effect that he believes it to
] bo tho best film yet based on one
of his stories. Tarkington took a
personal interest in the production,
assisting in casting and titling of
the picture.
COLLEGES MM
Emerald Receives Outline
From California
PLAN HAS POSSIBILITIES
Ideas Can be Broadened by
Interchanging Views
The organization of an inter
collegiate correspondence staff is
the plan outlined in a letter re
ceived recently by the Emerald
from the Daily Californian, the
student publication of the Univer
sity of California.
The purpose of the movement is
to make possible the interchanging
of ideas and opinions on current
student problems and movements.
College papers which are listed as
members of the system will ex
change articles on important camp
us topics. Sample subjects which
might be of interest in this line
are: honor spirit, campus theaters,
stadiums, student union buildings
and dramatics.
Drives Are Assisted
“Exchange of stories on these
and similar subjects would assist
in the campus drives, broaden the
scope of the paper, and furnish
readers of the campus daily with
viewpoints of other universities,
which might prove of constructive
help in the reorganization of old
activities and stimulate new ones,”
states the letter, which is signed by
Helen Duprey, feature editor of the
Californian.
Norborno _ Berkeley, exchange
editor of the Emerald, says that |
the plan has great possibilities if
the various college papers and the
students they represent will take
an interest in the exchanges. Sign
ed article -are to be sent out to
other papers, and in this wTay stu
dents may become “I. N. S. cor
respondents” on a small scale. An
article may be written by a stu
dent of Oregon giving his opinion
on a certain subject. By means of
this exchange system, the article
might be printed in a California I
paper and 'a student from there ;
might answer the article, based on j
his experiences in that school. This
feature will be valuable in giving
students broader ideas and better
understanding of problems of the
other campus.
Staff is Separate
The gift campaign in the rusar
future and the plan for a student
union building on the Oregon
campus will benefit by the pro
posed exchange system.
The new intercollegiate staff will
be entirely separate from the pre
sent Pacific Intercollegiate News
Service. In the past only news
stories have been exchanged, but
the new organization will make
possible the exchange of many
articles on important topics, in
cluding proposed changes and suc
cessful plans.
LUTHERN STUDENTS
MAY ORGANIZE CLUB
Work is Promoted by 'Rev. C. P.
Harry Who Was Recent Visitor
on the Campus
A meeting of the committee on
the establishment of a Lutheran
students’ organization on the camp
us will be held at the campus Y.
M. C. A. next Wednesday to formu
late plans for such an organization.
It is planned to call a meeting of
all Lutheran students in the Uni
versity in the near future.
These plans for a Lutheran club
on the campus are the results of
a visit made to the University re
cently by Rev. C. P. Harry, of
Philadelphia, who has been inter
ested in the organizing of Lutheran
college students throughout the
United States. At the time of his
recent visit to the campus, he
visited the other, state institutions
■ of the northwest and was suecess
' ful in organizing student organiza
t tions at O. A. C., Washington,
Washington State and Idaho. These
organizations are small in compari
son with those at Pennsylvania
State college, the University of
iMinnesota and the University of
Wisconsin, where there are several
hundred Lutheran students and
Ernest Henrikson, chairman; Camil
where the clubs are very strong.
The local committee consists of
Ernst Hendrikson, chairman; Camil
la Anderson, Esther Christensen and
Jalmar Johnson.
I
WALKS ARE COMMENDED
Thoroughfares on Campus Receive
Heavy Gravel Surface
Some one has observed the slip
pings and siblings'of the Univer
sity and high school students who
traverse the walks around the Edu
cation building and University
high school and has taken pity.
These said students returned this
term to find the old, damp narrow
walks all replaced with brand new
wide ones. Much rejoicing was
done. The same person or some
one as kind also has beautified the
grounds around the two buildings
by planting new shrubbery at cor
ners and near the fralks.
It appears that pity was also
taken on the muddy boots that come
from Kincaicl street, as new gravel
walks have been started there.
