Nominations for the officers of
the Women’s Athletic association

Melba Byrom; secretary, Mary

Elections will be held next Tues

of sports will be elected at the
usual time, late in the spring term.
The active president, Dorothy
McKee, together with the new
president, will attend the national
convention to be held in Berkeley
from April 7 to April 12. An
nouncement was made at the meet
ing yesterday of some of the prob
lems to be brought up at that con
ference before delegates sent from
universities all over the United
States.
Grace Sullivan, president of the
Women’s Order of the “O,” an
nounced the basketball and swim
ming banquet to be held at the Col
lege Side Inn for members of the
first and second class teams of each
of these sports. At that time, cups
wlil be awarded to the champions.
Reports were made by the heads
of the sports, which will be on the
athletic program for the spring
term. Since hockey has been made
a spring event, classes will be ar
ranged so that girls may learn the.
game, announced ChaVlotte LaTour
rette, leader for that sport.
The indoor track meet will be run
off nlext Thursday night in con
nection with the regular gymnasium
exhibition, reported Mildred Crain,
head of track. No individual
points are awarded for indoor track,
the points going only towards win
ning the Alden cup, awarded to the
class standing highest in the most
number of sports. Outdoor track
will begin early in the spring term.
Thirteen doughnut teams have
been organized so far in volley
ball, Pearl Pyritz, head of that
sport, announced. The games will
start next Monday, with class con
tests' to follow early in the next
term. The proposition of dough
nut tennis is being considered, this
being made possible by the recent
addition of the new courts on the
campus, was the report made by
Augusta DeWitt, tennis leader.
Other talks were given by Mary
Clerin, head of baseball, and Janet
Wood, head of hiking.
OREGON’S DEBATERS
LOSE BOTH CONTESTS

actual cases of importance to judge
and settle, has no cases now, and
would never have a case, until com
pulsory jurisdiction was made the
support of the court.
The second Washington speaker,
using the same point for his argu
ment and naming it an alternate
plan, which is the privilege of the
negative, turned the debate into the
one issue.
He declared that each side had
a definite plan. The affirmative’s
was the Harding plan, the virtue !
of which was that nations could
voluntarily submit disputes. The
negative submitted an opposite plan
which had as its feature compulsory
jurisdiction which would force na
tions as a last resort to submit
their disputes.
He then presented the idea of
compulsory jurisdiction as an alter
nate plan.
The debate had at the conclusion
of his talk become based entirely
on a question of compulsory juris
diction.
Martin Moore the second speaker
on the* Oregon affirmative, in his
last rebuttal, demanded that the
negative' name the power by which
compulsory jurisdiction could be
enforced.
The audience, while not large in
number, was keenly interested!
throughout the contest. Dean E. C.
Robbins, of the University school
of business administration acted as
the chairman of the event. Judges
were Charles Alexander, of the Al
bany Democrat, Albany; James C.
Nelson, principal of the Salem high
school, Salem; and Judge John B.
McCourt, of the Oregon supreme
court, Salem.
Each constructive speeeh was 17
minutes in length, and the rebut- ;
tals, affirmative, five minutes;
negative, six minutes; affirmative, j
five minutes; negative, seven min- ■
utes; affirmative, three minutes.
The contest was held in Villard
hall, beginning at 8 o’clock.

simplicity and sympathy so necessary
to it.
Virgil Mulkey, as Sir Oliver Sur
face, gave to his part a splendid vi
tality. Walter Malcolm’s Rowley
was a genuine and artistic piece of
character painting.
The parts of Crabtree and Sir
Benjamin Backbite were effectively
rendered, and Paul Krausse gave
Snake, the scandal-monger with the
lingering malice, a deft touch. Betty
Belle Wise made her campus debut
in the part of Marie, ward of Sir
Peter.
Mr. Reddie is effectively ingenious
in adapting the inadequacies of the
little theater to obtain the brilliant
effect of the period. The costumes
are literally luscious—they melt in
one’s eye.
On the whole, the use of curtains
is much more effective than conven
tional scenery, when inadequate, be
cause it does not distract one’s at
tention from the play, and “the
play’s the thing.”

FAVORS DOUGHNUT SPORTS
To the Editor:
The Emerald heading, “Council
Kills House Sports,” implies that
it 'was within the jurisdiction of
the inter-fraternity body to do what [
it pleased with the doughnut pro
gram, which is not and should not
be the case. The school of physi
cal education conducts the dough
nut program for both fraternity and
independent groups. The most that
the inter-fraternity council can do
is to withdraw from participation.
Be that as it may, there is a sane
and middle ground for the conduct
of inter-organization contests.
The re-al trouble with the intra
mural sports system is that houses
are compelled to go to unreason
able lengths in the chase for the
worthless old brass plaque. The men
forget sportsmanship and temper
ance in physical contests in the wild
fight for the ttophy. The empha
sis is placed on the winning, not
on the playing of the game. The
remedy for this evil is not the
abolition of inter-organization con
tests, but a modification of the
system.
What is our University coming to
when wo have to abolish athletic
competition because we have not
learned how to be sportsmen! If
such is the case, it would seem that
more, not less organized competition
should prevail, in order that we
might learn how to play the game
and smile.
Inter-class competition ■will not
take the place of inter-organization
contests, because it does not allow
enough men to play. Furthermore,
the fraternity freshmen will stand
less chance to make their grades and
be initiated if they are not allowed
a chance to keep fit.
Why not continue the doughnut
program under a new system? Have
the physical education department
supervise doughnut leagues in all
sports the same as now. Do away
with the continuity of the program,
that now compels each house to
enter men in every sport lest they
fall in the race for the plaque. Do
away with the cups, they are all
brass anyway. Let the prize for'
the victor be the joy of playing
and the distinction of winning.
Under this plan, a house could
enter the basketball league or not,
according to its pleasure; the same
with wrestling, baseball, handball,
tennis, swimming and the rest. Each
sport would be' a distinct unit in
itself and no one would know and

ON ABOLISHING FRATERNITY
SPORTS
To the Editor:
Inter-fraternity athletics have been
abolished—one more step taken to-1
ward making Oregon a “cultural”
institution.' Athletics are gradually
coming to play a less and less part [
in the life of a college man—it i
would seem that he is unable to |
perform an hour or so a day on the ,
athletic field, since it interferes
with his studies.
It would seem that the days are
passing when there were several
men, who won three letters every j
year; it would seem that Oregon’s
prestige on the track is fading.
When the football team fails to
win games another coach is picked.
When the basketball team fails to
win a championship, the responsi- j
bility is railroaded onto the shoul
ders of the coach. Student atti- j
tude toward winning their own ]
games is passive.
As an excuse—athletics take
time from the studies—-would seem
childish in the light of the efforts
of such men as Spearow, Rose
braugh and McColl. These three!
men are carrying from 15 to 22
hours of exceedingly difficult
studies, yet they make grades aver
aging from 1.4 to 1.6 and still find
time enough to turn out for ath-1
letics as well as take part in other
activities of the campus.
All indications point to the fact
that if we continue on the same
path as has been followed the past
few years it will soon get so the
student body will be forced to hire
a quartet to sing “Mighty Oregon"
at the assemblies; since it will be
too “low brow” to join in public
exhibitions of this sort, but we will
be proud to know that Oregon is
acquiring a reputation among the
neighboring cities for its polished
dancers, for the graceful way in
which its people wear their clothes
and the delightful ability to main
tain long conversations about noth
ing.
Abolishing inter-fraternity ath
letics is only another step of this
growing tendency to pander weak
lings, and it seems as though too
many efforts were being made to
make this institution safe for the
physical; sluggard. An investiga
tion into some of those who do
flunk out might find other causes
than athletics—perhaps there are
too many dances or too much canoei

It is wrong to place ' athletics

Comments on
Eugene Shops
Anne, my dear:
Spring and polities are gradual
ly approaching and with the lat
ter comes invitations out to din
ner. We made the Delts happy
this week and I felt so dressed up
in my new dinner dress of easter
shads georgette that I boiigrt at
Larne’s. It is perfectly darlin;
with a long pointed collar both in
front and back. The skirt has
four tsiangular inserts that have
series of ruffles with rows of lace.
They are showing some intriguing
dresses in the new sunburn and
cigarette shades.
Just think—I will be coming
home in a little over a week. X’m
so glad X don t
have to spend
hi y vacation
shopping and
will have all
the time to
play around in.
you’ll like my
now hat. It is a black haircloth,
‘.rimmed with wings of filmy lace,
the facing of the brim and bind
ing of the wings done in gros-de
londre. Bought at the Style Shop
ind being a “Gage” speaks for
itself.
Riding is so popular this year and
wo have so much fun doing it.
Song’s Siding Academy has the
best horses. We have planned a
trip for tomorrow out the Lorane
road and we will go rain or shine.
They furnish “slick” slickers if
it rains so it Teally doesn’t matter
much what old Pluvius decides to
do.
Speaking of rain—we had, a
serenade informing us that “It
ain’t a-goin’ to rain no more.”
It has verses and verses and is so
funny. I heard it on a record at
iho Eugene Music Shop and they
have the sheet music for it too.
The approaching exams demand
mler on my desk and today I
bought some long needed book
*nds at Elkins Gift Shop. They
iro lovely things and nice heavy
)nes of which I am so fond. I
ipcnd so mueh time just browsing
around there and it sort of uplifts
the soul, just like going to church,
to be around such beautiful things.
My new lounging robe inspires
me to study better. It is of
changeable bronze and blue satin
and has double ruffle trimming,
with tiny ribbon rosettes here
and there. The Art Shop has such
beauties and my roommate in
vested in one of pink and rose
changeable satin.
A demonstrator from the Den
pison company is going to demon
strate wax work and paper flow
ers and favors at Coe’s Station
ery tomorrow, Monday and Tues
day. We are all going down as
it will help us so much in making
favors for dinner parties and
rushing events. Mr. Coe arranged
for the demonstrator to come es
pecially on Saturday for the bene
fit of the college girls, as that
is the best day for them.
My little French watch that
hasn’t run for a year is at last
is as-goou-as-new condi
tion. I had it “over
hauled” at Skcie’s Jewel
*ry Store and it is so nice
Jnot to have to ask the
time so much. I hadn’t
realized how necessary a
watch wag until I had
mine again.
The alums wanted to give a gift
to the house and what do you
think they bought—a wonderful
little cabinet electric sewing ma
chine at the White Electric Sew
ing Machine Store. It is a Puritan
model and looks just like a small
tablo with drawers. There are
knobs and everything.
Answer soon to cheer me up in
the big trial—term exams. And
f ’ll soon bo with you for vacation.
Yours forever,
CAROL.
