Mt. Angel Tilt is Latest to
Become Uncertain
BIG BATTLE ON NOV. 8
O.A.C. Rooks to be Met; Baz
Cuts Squad to 40
With the season rapidly progress
ing the freshman football squad is
having a hard time finding oppo
sition. Most of the smaller colleges
and prep schools have refused to
play the freshmen. The first year
men were victorious in their first
encounter and were to have played
Marshfield high school last Satur
day at Marshfield, "but for some
unknown reason the high school
cancelled the game.
Now the game for Friday against
tho heavy Mt. Angel college team
is a thing of certainty. This game
was to have beeti played at Mt.
Angel, but definite arrangements
for this have not been made. If
Mt. Angol college is not met to
morrow, a game will be arranged
for a week from Friday.
Book Oamo Is Scheduled
The annual tussle between the
Oregon freshmen and the Oregon
Agricultural college Rooks is sched
uled to be played here November
8. This ought to prove one of the
best games of the year, as the first
year lads from Corvallis have a
number of ex-prep stars in their
lineup. On Saturday, November
15, the freshmen journey to the
University of Washington to play
the freshman team there.
Several men were hurt in the Co
lumbia tussle who were the main
stays on the line. These men were
Cress, center; Harden and Riggs,
guards. The loss of these men in
the next game will considerably
weaken the central part of the line.
Hedges will probably play center
in ease Cress is unable to gain.
The backfield has been showing up
well, and in several weeks Ed
wards, a heavy backfield man, will
be able to play.
Squad is Cut
The squad, which numbered
around 90 at the first of the sea
son, has fallen off considerably, and
Coach “Baz” Williams has about
40 men from which to pick his
team. Undoubtedly there will be a
number of good men whom Coach
Maddock can use in the varsity
lineup next year.
HARVARD AND McGILL
PLAYED FIRST RUGBY
A match between Harvard and
McGill (Montreal) played on May
13, 1874, was the first intercol
legiate football game ever contest
ed. Harvard won; but on the sec
ond day was held to a tie in a con
test played according to Rugby
rules.
The manner of playing was sim
ple. A player could either “run,
throw or pass’’ the ball •when it
came to him. “Many good strug
gles” are recorded in a contem
poraneous account. Eleven players
participated in the first game. For
the first time in its history, the
Harvard team cast aside their usual
costume consisting of the oldest
clothes available and wore dark
trousers, white undershirts and
magnets scarfs wound around their
heads. Their opponents appearod
mostly uniformed in the English
fashion.
The game consisted of three half
hour periods. Five people wit
nessed the struggle.— (The New
Student Service).

MODERN STOCKINGS
TRACED TO STONE AGE
Ancient Women Responsible for all Finery
of Co-Ed Says Professor
(Science Service)
Neolithic woman’s crude efforts
to construct a roof for her primi-'
tive hut gave rise to the manu
facture of silk stockings for modern
girls. Professor Harris Hawthorne
Wilder of the department of zool
ogy at Smith college at Northamp
ton, Massachusetts, has traced the
history of weaving back to the
stone age shelter and even suggests
that the apes started the practice
which is responsible for twentieth
century dress goods.
“The chimpanzees and orang
utans of the present day,” he
says, “construct for themselves ser
viceable nests, and twine above
them the smaller branches, inter
lacing them as well as their thick
fingers and inferior brains will
permit. But the primitive woman
was far above this, and, in her
twig-twining there soon grew be
neath her supple fingers a definite
system, by which, perhaps, one set
of twigs interlocked in a fairly
regular fashion with a set in the
'opposite direction. Next she made
baskets, constructed like the hut,
but made small and fastened to her
back, they greatly facilitated her
work of burden-bearing. t
“She then developed the new
found art .still further and applied
it to the constriction of large mats,
with which to cover the ground of
the hut. In searching the forest
for plant stems she discovered the
characteristics of the fibers of flax.
In some way, too, she notieed the ,
peculiar virtue of sheep’s wool j
which was at first left upon the!
hide and employed like other furs. ■
Twisting small tufts of wool be-:
tween the thumb and finger draws |
them out readily into threads, and j
this perfectly natural motion was j
probably often indulged in in idle:
moments before the idea was seized
upon and definitely applied. A
fairly good yarn can be made by
the fingers alone, but the twisting
can be more rapidly and easily ac
complished by the use of something
that can be made to rotate after
the principle of a top. Thus came
the spindle and spindle whorl.
“The simple stitches learned in
basket-making were undoubtedly
used first in weaving with the more
pliable materials. But soon the
greater possibilities were taken ad
vantage of, and the fabries and
colored patterns that were achieved
in the valleys of the Danube and
Bhine before the horse was tamed
or the use of metals learned, ri
valed in beauty the costumes of
modern. peasantry in countries
where primitive methods are still
used.
“The native inhabitants of the
two Americas often use in their
weaving exactly the same process
that the women of the Neolithic age
employed. Studies of the American
Indians are of the profitable ways
of tracing the development of tex
tile industries.”

has met with success, according to
Oscar McKinney, head of the can

from the living organizations have
not all been turned in, reports from
the men in charge at the houses
show that they have almost all gone
over their quotas.
Ernest Henrikson’s team is at
present leading the canvassing
groups for men outside of living
organizations with a total of $66.50.
The foroign students have pledged
100 per cent, Onofre Hipe having
canvassed all of them personally.

ATHLETIC HEART SAID
TO BE ANCIENT MYTH
Tests Made on Men Running
In 25-Mile Marathon
(By Science Service)
Boston, Mass.—A severe jolt has
been handed to the idea, long ac
cepted as a commonplace in medi
cal and athletic circles, that severe,
athletic training and participation
in competition, especially in long
races, was “hard on the heart,”
and tended to cause permanent en
largement of that organ.
The staff of the Peter Brent
Brigham hospital have just pub
lished the results of their X-ray
studies, made on American and
Canadian youths who took part in
the 25-mile American Marathon.
The men had all been training
for some months immediately pre
ceding the'race, and most of them
had been doing long distance run
ning for from five to fifteen or
more years. It was found that the
heart size of the men was normal,
and the lung capacity likewise was
apparently unaffected. Immediately
after the ■ race it seems that there
was a temporary decrease in heart
size, gradually returning to normal
in about one .day.
TEACHERS PREPARE DATA
FOR USE IN MASTER’S TEST
A series of syliaDi, dealing with
the main features of education, are
being prepared by 15 teachers who
are preparing for their master’s de

Portland.
This series will give them an op
portunity for a systematic review
for their master’s examination, ac
cording to Dr. H. D. Sheldon, dean
of the school of education. In ad
dition, about 12 teachers are writ
ing theses, some of which deal with
mental tests, while others are along
historical and social lines.
THACHER SELLS STORY
TO POPULAR MAGAZINE
W. F. G. Thacher, professor of
short story writing at the Univer

ity” in the November issue of Blue
Book magazine.
The editor’s comment on “Eligi
bility” is as follows: “The football
coach has his triumphs as well as
troubles—as witness this .splendid
story by a writer whd not only
knows his subject at first hand but
who also strikingly demonstrates
his eligibility as a writer.”
This is the second story Professor
Thaeher has had printed recently,
the other being “Boy’s Grief,”
published in the Atlantic Monthly.

HOUSE CLUBS FORMED
AT SOUTHERN BRANCH
University of California.—(By P.
I. N. 8.)—Women students of the
Southern branch living or boarding
in approved boarding houses have
been organizing into house clubs.
Any house where there are at least
six girls living, is eligible for mem
bership.
The dean has organized these
house clubs for two reasons. In
case anything arises in regard to
enforcing University regulations, it
will afford a better way in which
to call the women students together.
Secondly, it will be the quickest
channel to get all women students
into activities in which they are
interested.
