VETERAN TRACK MEN WILL WORK Sprint Men Promise Fast Races; 17 to Run MEET TO START AT 2:30 Inter-class Relays Wjll be Held March 1 With 68 men signed up to per form in today’s track carnival, and several of last year’s veterans ap pearing in the competition, this promises to be one of the most in teresting meets hold this season. Coach Hayward will start the affair promptly at 2:30; and he says the different events would be run off without lelay. Since the freshman and varsity teams are about equally represented in each event, it will give an op portunity to get a line on the com parative strength of the two. In previous meets the varsity have had things their own way, except in the 100 and the broad" jump. Extra surprised track followers last Satur day by beating out the varsity sprint men, but some of them seexn to think things will be different this time. “I know now I have real compe tition,” is the way one of the men put it. If Spearow competes in the broad jump, Flannagan will at least be forced to extend himself. Freshmen to Run Hurdles “I am going to have the low hurdles for my ‘pony’ freshmen,” Hill grinned. “There are several of the boys who figure the high hur dles are too big for them to jump.” He said, however, the high hurdles would be run by the varsity com petitors. The men of the varsity team who are listed to compote are: 100, Sny der, Calist.ro, Hayden, Eggleston, Lucas, McKinney, Lewis, McCullife. 440, Hermance, Risley, Agor, Rutherford, Houston, McOune, Campbell, llardenberg. 660, Keating, ■Mauiioy, Gerko, Dahl. Broad jump, Laughlin, Snyder, Anderson, Young, Eggleston, Hillis, McAullife. High jump, Spearrow, Eby, Hillis. High hurdles, Hillis, Krause, Oarruthers, Rosenburg and perhaps Young. The freshman team is: 100, Rodda, Moore, Cook, Holt, Flannagan, Extra, Hobblet, Kittera, Cash. Broad jump, Flannagan, Gray, Kjul land, Extra, Hobblet. 4+0, Waite, Wilbur, Beeson, Jeffries, Swank, Gurnea Hartwell. High jump, Case Hall, Hoblett, Price. 880, Conley, Tomlinson, Gray, Micholl. Low hur dles, Rodda, Boswell, Iiall, Kittoe and Clark. Spectator to be Safe Coach Hayward lias requested that all those not engaged in the meet stay in the grandstand or the bleachers; for there is not only the danger of unexpectedly stopping; a stray javalin or discuss, but it flutters up tho field and increases i the confusion. lie will ask for those judges-and officials ho needs. There will be no moot next week j on account of so many of tho men intending to go away over tho lioli Rose La Vogue Beauty Shop Manicuring, Scalp and Face Treatments.

PROBLEMS IN MEETINGS l . - (Continued from page one) distribute it to the papers who joined in the pool buying. This j matter was- referred to the eommit ' tee on resolutions to be incorpor ated in the final report. Free Publicity Discussed The subject of “Publicity vs. Journalism,” as presented by the several speakers brought forth dis cussion on how much publicity was worth while in a paper. Marshall N. Dana, of the Oregon Journal, favored printing free publicity material provided it was for a worthy cause. Robert Sawyer of Bend and A. E. Voorhees of Grants Pass, who followed him, showed how much of this material wias printed in state papers and how many requests are received for free space. George Lansing Hurd, of the Cor vallis Gazette-Times, brought up the question of free automobile pub licity and said that from his own j experience he found that the auto mobile propaganda was hard to keep out because the dealers brought so much pressure to bear. I lie believed that this was due to I the fact that the Portland papers gave so much space to it. Edgar B. Piper, in answering Mr. Hurd, pointed out that the automo bile section contained real news interest and that many readers asked for that feature in the paper. Farmers’ Problems Reported The conference received the re port of the mooting that took place at Corvallis three weeks ago on the farmers’ problems. The idea presented was to give the farmer help throiyrh constructive news pa,per work. It was decided that no set form of procedure be layed down for the papers, but that each work under a general idea. Edgar l>. Piper pointed out that the wholo life of journalism and democracy depended on variety of opinion, in dependently expressed by the news papers. One of the practical problems confronting publishers is that of se curing legislation favorable to the papers of the state, according to E. A. Kuen, who was the representa tive of the conference, to look out for its interests at the last meeting! of the legislature. He pointed out that it was vital to have an active lobbyist at the sessions of the j legislature. Banquet Concludes Day The conference session for yes terday was concluded with a ban quet at the Osburn hotel. There were about 200 guests present, in- j eluding the campus and towns-1 people, as well as the editors and. publishers. In the midst of the program of sparkling after-dinner speeches, Paul It. Kelty, news editor of the Portland Oregonian, received the permission of the toastmaster to present a proposition to the gather ing. Reciting the service given by [ the school of journalism and the University of Oregon as a whole to the state, Mr. Kelty moved that the newspapermen comprising the conference appoint, through the conference president, a committee of five, representing papers in ! widely separated parts of the state, j to arrange for united support to the University’s gift campaign. The motion was unanimously passed by! rising vote. In his remarks in sup port of the resolution, Mr. Kelty pointed out the University’s needs i and suggested that a week be set i aside for concerted support of the I gift campaign, through informing j the people of tho state of the Uni versity’s situation. President Campbell Condoled j Earlier in the evening, a resolution offered by Elbert Bede, editor of the Cottage Grove Sentinel, was passed by acclamation offering the sympathy of tho state newspapermen to Presi dent Campbell in his illness and hop ing for his speedy recovery. Dean Dyment, toastmaster in President Campbell’s absence, reported that the : president would be able, his physi-1 Cains believe, to be out by Monday. George L. Baker, mayor of Port: j land, in a serious address, urged the editors to get together and advertise the resources of the state, to attract tourists and settlers, and deprecated what he termed the tactics of one j community “knocking” another. Dean Gives Impressions Impressions of European newspa pers were given by Eric \V. Allen, dean of the school of journalism, who spent four months last year in Eng land and on the continent. Lloyd Spencer, representative of the Seattle Advertising club and a mem ber of the staff of the Seattle Star, recalled his old days on the stage by reeling off dialect stories in rapid series. N. J. Levinson, known to all the old-timers as “,Too”. had some . new ones. Dr. Charles McCaughey, of the Advertising club of Portland, The Way of Half-TRUTHS 1 ’liiloso|iliers toll us that the hu man mind never attains the concep tion of perfect or ideal-truth because the human mind is itself a thing of imperfection. We do gather workable ideals and an understanding of uni verse Is which all human experience tenches us to be true because innate to our psychology of righteousness or ethical progress just as human exper ience through science has discovered certain universal laws interwoven in the controlled universe. Now religion has developed from mg his growing knowledge of truth, the instinct of men toward interprot But he is always journeying by tbo way of half-truths. Just as soon ns a religion loses its open-mindedness ami faces backward it begins to die. H can have a reformation and right about face or it will sooner or later become but a fossilized structure of a thing once instinct with living hopes and aspirations. The great mistake of organized Christianity has been that it founded itself on a group of historic half truths such as the virgin birth of Christ, the physical resurrection of Christ and the various biblical mir acles. Upon this foundation was built a metaphysical superstructure expressive of the thought of the first Sive or six centuries of the church but which has become as philosophi cally untenable by the modern minded man ns the biblical miracles seem historically improbable as exact facts. So the fallibility of the church lies in its infallibilities. ilia sermon on “ Truth by the Way of Half-Truths,” tho "Rev. Frank Fay Kddv will discuss this line of thought at the Unitarian church Sunday morn ing. The soloist at this service will be Arthur Johnson, t<;nor of Portland.

The OREGANA “The Student’s Shop” brought greetings from that organi zation, surrounding his remarks com pletely by the latest in humor. Joe Maddock Introduced J. A. Ormandy, the new general passenger agent of the Southern Pacific, and D. A. Morrison, presi dent of the Advertising club of Portland, were among the other speakers. Rosalia Keber, senior in the school of journalism, welcomed the visitors in behalf of the sehool. Joe Maddock, the new football coach of the University, was intro duced, but made a “forward pass,” passing his speech along to the next speaker, as he expressed it.

Scott Fitzgerald's crook-story, “Grit,” now playing at the Castle theater, today last day,1 was no easy task. The scenes were actually taken at night. Ordinary eleetric light ; could not be used in the street lamp, for plain lights do not film well at all. So a special .cable had to be 1 laid and a sunlight are put in the lamp. This necessitated a great ex penditure of time and money, but the effect secured was most realistic.'
