    FIRST OF MEET
TO BE TOESOUK
Intramural Bar Vault and
Swim Scheduled
FIJIS HOLD FIRST PLACE
Nineteen Teams Entered
in Annual Pentathlon
Less than a week remains for the
entries of the intramural pentathlon
to round into shape for the first
two events, the bar vault and swim,
which will be held next Tuesday
evening at 7:15 in the men’s gym
nasium.
“Hank” Foster, director of the
intramural program, asks that the
managers of the different house
teams turn in the names of the
five men that will compete in the
pentathlon before Friday evening,
February 1, at 5 o’clock. The names
of the men on the team must be
turned in to Foster before the men
can compete in the events.
Fijis Hold Lead
Of the 19 teams entered in the
intramural tournament the Fijis
have managed to hold down first
place. There may be a chance that
they will be dethroned if some
team piles up a high score and
carries off the meet. The first two
events will be staged Tuesday even
ing and the remaining three, rope
cilmb, run and high jump will be
finished Thursday evening.
High Score Expected
The events will be run off this
year in two evenings because of
the lack of time and again the
amount of endurance is not requir
el for two events as if all five were
held in one evening. By this
method of staging the pentathlon it
is expected that some team will
make a high score. If an extra
ordinary score is made in the meet
it will not be counted toward the
high point position of the Univer
sity, which is held by HadTlon
Rockhey.
Each man will be given a card
and will take his turn at the bar
vault, and after finishing this
event will go to the tank and take
the swim. Harry Seott, Jim Coss
man, Earl Widmer, and “Hank”
Foster will be in charge of the bar
vault, while “Rudy” Fahl and Bon
Park will look after the swim.
INTRAMURAL SPORTS
THOUGHT ESSENTIAL
(Continued From Page One.)
of athletics, last year tlie department
of physical education through the in
tramural program, had 596 men ac
tively engaged in some sport. Sta
tistics available in Scott’s office
show that 19 men’s organizations
were active in the intramural program
during the past year and that each
living organization had on the av
erage for the year, 20 men engaged
in each of the nine intramural sports.
In the fall - term basketball is the
major intramural activity and the 19
living organizations engaged, are re
presented by seven men to a team.
The varsity and freshman teams
would limit the possibility of basket
ball playing to 35 or 40 men instead
of 112 men who enjoyed the game
last year. Last fall 62 men turned
out for intramural cross country, al
though this was the first time that
the event had been listed as an in
tramural activity.
During tlie winter term hand
ball, the physical ability pentatha
lon, wrestling and swimming are
open to intramural men. The hand
ball teams are composed of 2
men from each of the 19 living or
ganizations. Each organization is
represented by 4 men in the
pentathalon, 55 men turned out for
intramural wrestling last year, and
swimming, which is the last in
tramural activity in the winter
term, attracted 75 men.
In the spring each of ,the or
ganizations are represented by 2
men in the tennis tournament, 11
men in baseball, and last season 50
men turned out for track.
The 9 intramural sports offered to
members of 19 living organizations
in 1922-1923 consist of basketball,
in which 112 men were actually
participants: handball, 34; physical
ability pentathalon, 55; wrestling,
61; swimming, 50; track, 75; base
ball, 175: tennis, 34.
With all of these various activi
ties available for the man who likes
to play—and Scott believes that all
men like to play— beneficial ath
letics are open throughout the year
to the L'niversity student. By ad
hering to, and occasionally modify
ing the intramural program, the |
end desired by the school of phy
sical education is realized. The I
man who is not in condition for
varsity athletics, or cannot make
•the team, is given an opportunity
to improve himself physically by 9
different activities.
But the tiling that pleases Scott
*■-' o most, is the fact that men are
; articipating in the intramural pro
gram learn to play games •which
’■vill afford them pleasure and ex
. rcise and enjoyment long after
they leave the University. After
a man becomes 30 years of age, he
does not care to play basketball—
the game is too strenuous. “But a
man can enjoy and does profit by
a game of handball even after he
becomes bald or gray,” Scott de
clared.
The plaque, offered by the de
partment of physical education to
the organization winning the year's
intramural contest, was awarded to
the Sigma Chi fraternity last year.
Any organization winning the
plaque three times in succession
gets to keep the trophy. To win
the plaque the organization must be
a consistent participant in all of
the intramural activities.
The time element entering into
the intramural activities does not
jeopardize the student scholastic
record, according to Scott. Less
time is consumed and more benefit
accrues to the student participating
in a well organized and system
atized sport than could possibly be
obtained by haphazard, irregular
playing.
Ill closing Scott said that men en
tering the intramural activities did
so on their own initiative and
played with a definite purpose.
When they leave the University,
he believes that they will continue
to play on their own initiative for
the same reason that they do now
—for enjoyment.

originated the plan whereby an
award of $50,000 would be given

and preserving the peace of the
world. It was also stated that if

his shattered health, and while in this
country was prevailed upon to make

coming.

| leeted to give. The broadcast will
be made from station K G W of
the Portland Morning Oregonian.
Professor Reddie has a new
theory on the expression of per
sonalities over the radio which he
is going to try out at this time.
Being an expert on the speech
arts, expectations are that he will
have some good pointers on the
vocal expression of personality to
give. The subject of expression of
personality over the radio is a
much discussed topic in the radio
world these days, says Mr. Red
die.
MEW SEVEN DAY SHELF
PROVES SUCCESSFUL
Students and Faculty Urged to
Assist Library by Handing
in Suggestions
Considerable interest ha,s been
shown in the new seven-day shelf
of interesting books which was
opened a. week ago for the first
time. About half of tho books aro
now in circulation. The plan, that
of Mabel McClain, circulation lib- I
rarian, and H. P. Sheldon, dean of j
the school of education, is to bring
before .students and faculty the
current non-fiction books of most
lively interest.
That the plan is proving success
ful, is shown by the fact that sev
eral of the most popular books on
the shelf are those which have been
in the library for as iong as six
months and are not just new books.
Although they have been in the
library, people in general did not
seem to know of them until they
were brought out together on the
new shelf for special attention.
Many of the books have circulated
once, and a half already.
Only three or four suggestions,
have been handed in to the sug
gestion box at the circulation desk,
however, and it is by this plan that
students and faculty are urged to
co-operate in making known any
book they may be interested in
seeing added to the new shelf. The
titles handed in will be judged by
a. committee and if there is enough
demand for the book it will be
purchased for the collection.
In addition to 2b books that are
already ordered for the shelf, and
will arrive soon, volumes will be
added from time to time, as in
teresting books come out and are
being discussed. All books in this
collection circulate without fees.
