MEETING OF CHURCH WOMEN’S TEAM HELD Yearly Plans are Discussed And Conferences Set The first meeting held by the Women’s National Church team, which arrived on the campus yes terday from O. A. C., was a lun cheon given at noon yesterday at the College Side Inn. Sixty per sons attended the meeting, the Uni versity pastors, representatives from the local churches and the Y. W. C. A. cabinet being present in addition to the members of the team. H. W. Davis, head of the United Christian work of the University, presided at the meeting and out lined the progress of the organiza tion of religious forces on the cam pus. He also announced the church affiliations of the students. Miss Frances Grennough, of Chi cago, gave the main talk at the lun cheon. Church officials, she said, have been accustomed to dropping in at the various colleges through out the country at any time they may have an opportunity to do so, and it was to organize these visits that the national team was started. In this way, the speaker explained, the members of different denomina tions ar given a sense of unity and they are enabled to make a united approach to the students. “The team is a living example of the splendid feeling that exists today between representatives ,of the various denominations,” said Miss Grenough. “Students tare often surprised to discover that the church has a world wide compre hensive social program. This is another purpose of the team, to pre sent the challenge of the present program of the church to the Uni versity students of today.” Another meeting was held last night at the “Y” hut when Dr. Lapsley McAffee, pastor of the First Presbyterian church of Ber keley, California, spoke to a group of University women on religious work. Wednesday, conferences will be held by the members of the team with members of their respective denominations. The final meeting of the team will be held in the Y. W. C. A. bungalow, Thursday at 4:15. TWO TEAMS VICTOfllOUS IN DOUGHNUT LEAGUE In the two hotly contested bas ketball games played yesterday af ternoon the Phi Delta Theta team outplayed the Sigma Nu’s and won the first game by a 16 to 8 score and the Sigma Alpha Epsilon •chalked up an 8 to 1 victory over Alpha Beta Chi. The uncanny basket shooting ability of Watson coupled with the clever floorwork of Edwards and Diamond gave the Phi Delts the victory. Taylor and Wallace played good and consistent ball for the Sigma Nu’s. The S. A. E. and A. B. C. ag gregations played close ball during the first half and most of the sec ond until “Dinty” Moore looped a couple of baskets for points. Cook, the diminutive forward was a terror in breaking up the op ponents’ passes and in getting in the wav of their shots. Fields, the tall rangy center of the A. B. C.’s was their outstanding man with his floor .work and ability to locate the ball. Cheering from the balcony added .polor to the game with the dif ferent students giving their favor ite team yells and urging them on to do their best. There will be a game this after noon between Beta Theta Pi and Phi Kappa Psi at 4 o’clock. MANY LIBRARY BOOKS CIRCULATE THIS YEAR Figures compiled by Mrs. Mabel McClain, circulation librarian, show that the books taken out from the library this year total 'pearly twice as many as compared with last year. The number of books signed out last week 'was 2254, while 1079 were recorded for the same time a year-ago. The number given out two weeks ago, 2100, almost doubles that of the same week in 1923, which ’was 1086. These figures do not apply to the rent books nor do they in clude Sundays. Last week-end when there was a football game in Portland, the li brary did more business than two weeks ago when the game was at Idaho and most iof the students remained in Eugene. rv What ' the University of Oregon needs most is more holidays.

UNIVERSITY IF MEXICO ATTRACTS AMERICANS Record-breaking Summer Session Expected • The National University of Mex ico, which since 1921 has main tained a summer school for stu dents and teachers of the United States, announces thlat prospects are most favorable for a record breaking attendance next summer. Since the first session of the sum mer school was held, nearly every American college and university of importance has been represented among the matriculants. The faculty of the 1925 summer school will be composed of profes sors of the National University, to gether with several prominent edu cators from the United States. Most of the courses will be con ducted in Spanish, this being of in estimable value to students and teachers of this language. How ever, a number of general culture courses will be offered in English for the benfit of students having no knowledge of Spanish. Mexico City is cooler tlfen Den ver during the sumlier months, being an ideal place for study. The many sight-seeking trips to be of fered under university supervision will include visits to world-famed archaeological ruins, pyramids that rival those of Egypt in size and in terest, and to many other places of archaeological, historical or scenic interest. The National University Is tak ing a leading role in the work that is being done to promote a mutual feeling of good will among the in tellectual classes of Mexico and the United States, and it is through the medium of the summer school that this work is most effectually being carried forward. Complete information regarding the 1925 summer school may be obtained by addressing Sr. Manuel Romero de Terreros, secretary of the summer school, Universidad Nacional de Mexico, Mexico, D. F. PRE-MEDICS STUDENT GOES TO WASHINGTON Harold Gourley, of Eugene, a student in pre-medics here last year, left early this week for Washing ton, D.

Dept. 9 Aurora, Illinois ! ■ TRACK MEET PLANNED FOR CINDER ASPIRANTS Cross Country Run With Aggies Cancelled The first competition in fall j track will be held sometime near the first of December. The meet which is planned by Hayward will not be a class affair as' it has been previously, but will be merely a meet for the ones turning out for both varsity and freshmen. This is used as a means of giving the men some work before bad winter weather compells them to workout indoors. The turnout for fall track has been large this year. Over seventy aspirants are signed up and turning out regularity. The work has con sisted so far in limbering up and getting used to the pits and track on Hayward field. During the win ter term the track men will work out in the gymnasium on the weights and other apparatus to ’keep them in condition, and to build up shoulder muscles and to give the aspirants endurance. The cross country meet with O. A. C. whieh was scheduled to start before the Homecoming gaimo on Bell field was cancelled. Bill Hay ward invited ‘O. A. C. to enter a team .in the conference meet held here last Homecoming but they de clined the invitation because they claimed lack of time to develop a team. The Oregon cross country team disbanded after the confer ence meet so that no teaan could be entered. Hayward decided that he did not wish to let the Oregon team enter the dual meet.

It grew late, as so often it does; and he put the quietus on a discussion with the ponderous statement. “I don’t read advertisements. They have no effect on me at all. I’d never miss them if they stopped printing ’em.” Then he glanced at his advertised watch and sought his lower-berth. * In the morning the ad-skeptic contorted himself out of his advertised pajamas into his advertised underwear, drew on his advertised socks, adjusted them with his advertised garters, got into his advertised clothes, laced his adver tised^ shoes and added himself to the congestion in the wash-room. There he shaved with; an advertised razor, using adver tised shaving cream; brushed his teeth with an advertised toothbrush and advertised dental cream, washed with advertised soap, and brushed his hair with an advertised brush. Buttoning his advertised collar on an advertised button, he neatly knotted hjs advertised tie, gave his advertised suspenders a tug or two, and finished dressing. Let us leave him there, this man who never reads adver tisements ! Everything worth using is advertised. Everything that isn’t, rarely is. Read the Advertisements for Value’s Sake
