Thia means that 23.6 per cent of the members of the class are clear. The women mem bers are 27 per cent clear while ■ only 20 per cent of the men have no - unfilled requirements. Certificates Issued Later Mr. Spencer says that the require ments may be cleared up any time during the year, and at such times the certificates will be issued. It is only by calling for his cer -tificate that each student will be able to find out just what his status is, so all juniors are urged to get this matter settled at once. Names are Listed Following is a list of the stu dents who are clear of all require ments and are entitled to certifi cates: Paul W. Ager, Alfred W. An drews, David C. Baird, Ronald H.

It was an autographed plaster cast. One of the residents in the hall broke his leg while jumping a hurdle in the gym last week, and was compelled to sit through the barn dance with it in a plaster cast. Someone conceived the idea of signing his name on its surface. The crowd quickly took up the idea, and now he possesses an artificial limb with the signa tures of more than one hundred people. HOMECOMING LUNCH WILL BE KEPT SECRET ‘No Potato Salad and Ham’ Reports Chairman “The menu for the Homecoming lunch is to be an absolute secret, ’ ’ says Marguerite McCabe, chairman of the Homecoming luncheon com mittee. “but it’s not going to be the usual potato salad and ham,” which opens up an interesting sub ject for conjecture in regard to one of the highlights of Homecoming week-end. However, the orders for the food are being placed and from the large amounts • of them it is a pretty cer tain thing that everyone is going to have plenty to eat. The luncheon will be held out side unless it is raining and then it will be in the men’s gymnasium. A system has been worked out for the serving of food, and the ma neuvering of lines so that the large crowd can be handled in a quick and efficient manner, without the usual congestion. The Oregon Knights are to be called into serv ice for the transportation of food. The committee is planning to serve over four thousand people, as approximately 1000 Washington students are expected here besides our alums and former students. STUDENT UNION MONEY COMING VERY SLOWLY Although the student union drive went over big last year and many pledges were made to pay ten dol •lars a year- for the’-next ten years, the money is coming in very slowly, according to A. L. Ingalls, chief clerk at the business office, who has charge of the accounts of the gift campaign. ' Only thirty-three and a third per cent of those payments are now in, he states, some of thorn being paid during registration time this year. The reports are rather discouraging, but those in charge of the accounts think that the students are prob ably working now and that by the end of the year the payments will be up to the 100 per cent mark. BERT KERNS, VARSITY TACKLE, BULLDOGGED STEERS IN WYOMING By W. A. J. Bert Kerns, regular varsity tackle, got his tackling experience in bulldogging wild steers in Wyo ming. Beside tackling a wild steer the tackling of a man ought td be pretty easy. The steer goes at the rate of about 30 miles an hour and is much heavier than a man, but the man has the advantage in being able to think more than the animal. Anyway Kerns used to be a cow boy and flop cattle around as if it were play. Two good tackles are on the var sity team. The other side of the line is held down by Captain Dick Reed while Kerns holds up the work of the opponents on the right side of the line. Kerns is getting into the top of his form now. He has an admir able high school record behind him. Having played tackle on the cham pionship high, school team of Wyo ming and was chosen for the posi tion of all-state tackle. That is no mean distinction. For two year* h£ played for North Central high school in Spokane, Washington. Kerns played all year last season on the frosh squad and was con sidered one of the best tackles out. He has played in every game so far this season and he is likely to play in all the rest of them. Dependable and consistent, he makes one of the most valuable linesman that Joe has out. Through tackle seems to be the favorite play in straight football, so he gets his share of the' ramming. But he’s there and he’s in the mix for damage. Kerns has an ideal physique for a tackle. He is 6 feet tall and weighs about 180 pounds. It’s hard to say one position on the team is harder to play than an other but it is a sure thing that the tackle gets a lot of ramming the rest don’t, so Kerns will constitute a bulwark in the line. He seems quiet and retiring but when one knows him, he is just as congenial as any of them, and an all around good, fellow. MEKD Hi HEBER TO PUT TUT Final Contest Determines Winner of Fall Tennis Championship Contests GAMES ARE THRILLING Twenty Candidates Turn Out for Freshman Squad; Games Being Run Off The two outstanding contestants in the tennis tournament, “Red” Heber and George Mead, will meet this afternoon at 3:30 on the Uni versity courts. These two men have battled their way through the 18 contests and have now won the right to “fight it out” for the championship of the University. In the semi-finals Friday after noon between George Mead and Okerberg, Mead won the two decid ing sets, 6-4 and 14-12. The sec ond set was a real thriller with the advantage in games going first to one and then to the other until with a sudden burst of renewed en ergy George Mead won by taking the last two games. Competition is Keen Competition has been keen all through the tournament with the J •close scores showing the abundance of good material for the varsity squad. Thursday afternoon Oker berg won from Hubbard only to meet defeat by Mead. “Red” Heber, a new man on the Oregon campus, has been showing real ability as a tennis player. He plays the game in a cool way Jret he is always fighting. He is sure to be one of the men to give the let termen a battle for a plaoe on the i varsity squad. George Mead, another newcomer (Continued on Page Four) COUNCIL PUCES LIMIT ' ON CAMPUS CAMPAICNS At a meeting of the student coun cil recently, a resolution was adopt ed proposing to appoint a commit tee empowered to place a limit on all money-making campaigns, drives or sales, conducted by campus or ganizations. The committee of four, appoint ed last night by Randall Jones, student body president, to be in charge of these affairs is:.Edward Kirtley, chairman; Marie Meyers, secretary; Mary Bartholomew and Basil Burke, committeemen. All clubs or bodies desiring to carry on such campaigns must petition to this committee for permission. Formerly it has been the custom of the student body to finance spe cial campaigns in cases when they were thought to be of special bene fit to the students at large. In the f^ure the committee will consider carefully the merits of each proposed drive or sale and will ac^ accordingly. In this man ner it is thought that all needless campaigns will be eliminated and new ones discouraged to a great ex tent, unless there is sufficient rea son to justify their instigation. If the petition is not granted by the committee, the petitioning body may bring its case before the stu dent council for final decision.

HOOVER Problems for Scholars of Continent Not One of Technique, Students Told TRADITIONS ARE STRONG Intercollegiate Athletics and Fraternities Absent in . French Higher Schools “The problem ahead of the schol ars in Europe is the betterment of the conditions under which they live,” said Dr. Glenn Hoover, as sistant professor of political sci ence, in speaking on the life of European students at the regular assembly in the Woman’s building, yesterday. “Europe is in an awful mess,” continued the speaker, “and the conditions cannot be cured by the spreading of technique by the stu dents.” Dr. Hoover accounted for the German “youth movements” as a revolt of the young against old traditions. There has been a sur prising loss of faith in old ideas, he pointed out, and the students, feeling that all old traditions have failed, are “searching in their own souls for a new outlook on life.” The movements aro not unified, however, the participants hold all varieties and shades of political beliefs. State Controls Schools Dr. Hoover touched upon various phases of student life in France, especially. He pointed out the ef fect of tradition on the Freneh col leges of today, based upon the sys tems in vogue at the University of Paris several hundred years ago. The higher institutions are con trolled by the state, and are situ ated in districts, presided over by an official corresponding to a superintendent of public instruc tion. There are no intercollegiate ath letics in the French colleges, no college newspapers, no fraternities nor any of the features which are in this country regarded almost as a part of the‘college. The conti nental institutions are established with the idea of business foremost, and activities and social life have no place. Lecture System Used The lecture system is carried to an extreme in the French univer sities, according to Dr. Hoover. Even when there are small classes (Continued on Page Four) NEW PARKING PLAGE TO CLEAR CONGESTION The work of grading the new parking space on Thirteenth avenue, behind the nicotine bush, was started by the University workmen yesterday. It has been proposed by several city officials that the gravel be furnished by the city, but as yet this has not been definitely de cided. This new place, with the other new parking space on the south side of the sociology building, is expected to clear Thirteenth avenue and University street of the many cars now parked there. A platform, 16x30 feet, will be constructed by the University work men on the old baseball diamond on Kincaid street, for use by speech makers during the Homecoming rally. The bonfire, as in former years, will be built on the hockey grounds nearby. POPULAR JUNIOR COUPLE ANNOUNCE ENGAGEMENT The engagement of Cecile Ben nett and Blondel Carleton, both juniors in the University, was re cently announced at Hendricks hall. Miss Bennett is a major in the English department and her home is at Lebanon. Carleton, who now i sides in' Eugene, formerly lived in Lebanon also. He is a major in pre-medics.

The blueprint of the plans shows a compact arrangement of rooms, and Large corridors. The center rooms for laboratory work are built in the form of booths which are in tended as temporary structures to be removed at some time when the building is expanded.

The doors to the laboratory rooms for the beginners are of the double-swing type to eliminate noise. The rest of the doors in this department will be set in the regu lation way. The whole floor will be elabor ately wired so that each room is connected with every other. Gas and compressed air pipes will be installed in each Laboratory room. DR.
