DEBATE FIIULS ARE SCHEDULED Three Women’s Houses Compete Tonight TWO CUPS ARE OFFERED Men’s Teams Will Meet For Championship Alpha Xi Delta, Hendrick’s hall and Delta Zeta will compete to night for the women’s debate cup. After two nights of eliminating de bates these three teams, the win ners, are loft for the final meet to decide the doughnut series for the year. Delta Zeta tied with Susan Caimipbell hall the first night so a second debate was held to work off the decision. One judge acted Tuesday night, three Wednesday night to decide on the tie and three will act tonight in the finals. Doughnut Series to End The final debates for the men’s doughnut series will also be worked off tonight. As a result of de bates held last week, Alpha Beta Chi, Sigma Pi Tau and Friendly Hall are competing. The reward for the men is the cup given by Tau Kappa Alpha and the women’s cup is given by Zeta Kappa Psi, honorary debating societies. The men’s debates will be run off at seven o ’clock and the wo men 's will follow them at eight. These dobates tonight will end the doughnut debates for the year, with the exception of a possible meeting of the winners of the men’s group against those of the womon’s meets. Such a debate was held last year and proved to be of such success that it will probably bo repeated. Promptness is Urged The debates are being held in Commerce hall and the members of the competing teams are asked to be on time that the rather heavy program may be finished early. The question for the women’s de bate is concerned with the immigra tion act of 1924 and its rovision to permit the immigration of Japan ese on the same ground as that of the Europeans. The men’s question is that of the mjen’s varsity d/obates and d\eals with the power of Congress to over rule by a two-thirds vote decisions of the supreme court declaring acts of Congress unconstitutional. This latter question is one brought up by La Follette in his political cam paign and has been much discussed. CHAPEL IS MEMORIAL 1 Til i The approaching completion of the new Congregational church, which is being erected at Thirteenth avenue east and Ferry streets, is of especial interest to University peo ple, M. If. Douglass, University librarian, an officer of the church explained yesterday in announcing that opening services will be held in the new building some time next month. •“The chapel, to be called Condon Chapel, is to be a memorial to Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Condon, vener ated figures in University of Ore gon history,” said Mr. Douglass. Professor Condon first came to this country as a Congregational missionary by way of Cape Horn, in 1S52. Later lie became one of the founders of the University of Oregon, and served it as profes sor of geology for 30 years, from 1S76 to 1000. At the time of his death in 1007, he was a scientist of international reputation. “Wo of the Congregational church doom it especially fitting that Pro fessor Condon be given a memor ial in our church,” said Mr. Doug lass, “for he was one of the first great scientists to maintain tho Congregationnlist belief that relig ion and science are reconcilable.” The proximity of the new church to the University campus, it is hoped, will enable it to minister extensively to University people, and the choice of the present loca tion was influenced by the desire to do so, explained Mr. Douglass. Professor W. It. B. Willcox, of the school of architecture, is the architect of the building. It is to be of an Italian type tind finished in stucco. The building will not be com pleted until next February, but ser vices will be held in it before that time. Assembly Speaker CHURCH TEAM TO HOLD LAST MEETING TODAY Group Members will Speak In Y. W. C. A. At 4:15 The final meeting of the wom en’s national church team, visit ing the campus this week, will be held at 4:15 this afternoon at the Y. W. C. A. bungalow. All women students and faculty members are asked to attend by Florence Ma gowan, Y. W. secretary. Three members of the team will give brief talks at this meeting. Mrs. Helen Street Ranney will speak on “The Task of the Church Abroad.” MisB Harriet Thom son will present another phase of church work in her talk on “The Task of the Church at Home,” and Miss Frances Greenough will speak on “The Home Church and Com munity.” Personal conferences with mem bers of their respective denomina tions, teas, luncheons and dinners were on the program for the team members yesterday. Tuesday, a luncheon was hold at noon and a meeting in the afternoon at which Dr. Lapsley McAffee, California minister, spoke. This is the last college to be visited by the team as a group. From here the members will travel separately, some of them going to California to visit their respective student organizations in southern colleges and universities. During their northwestern tour, six insti tutions were visited by the teaim. A business meeting of the church co-operation committee and local pastors will be held at 5:15 today at the bungalow following the church team program.

SENIOR FORMAL BALL WILL BE JANUARY 17 Committees are Appointed To Carry Out Plans A report by Junior Seton, gen eral chairman of the 'senior ball to be given January 17, was heard and accepted by the senior class at their meeting, yesterday after noon. The plans call for a rather elaborate, strictly formal dance which will be held in the sun par lor and gymnasium of the Woman’s building, with the use of Alumni hall as a reception room. It was decided to limit the at tendance to about 350 couples so that the floor would at no time be crowded. Two dollars will be charged for the tickets and this will go to defray the expenses of the music, refreshments, profes sional talent for the feature, and costumes for the musicians and waitresses. The dance is considered in the light of an organization affair to which both the men and women have the privilege of inviting a partner who may or may not be in the senior class| The senior men and women will have a week in which to secure their tickets, and after this, juniors and sophomores can take advantage of the ticket sale until the total number of tickets is sold. The committees as appointed by Seton are: decorations, Ed Bohl man, chairman, Hilda Chase, Hal Lundburg, Walter Backstrom, and Alice Lindell; construction, Wil lard Marshall, chairman, Gibson Wright, Russ Burton, Eugene Kelley, Carl Skoog and Harry Ilulac; lighting, Louis Carlson, Chuck Spear, and Clayton Hughes; costumes, Hazel Borders, Penelope Gehr, Helen Sherwood, and Pauline Bondurant; patrons, Martha Shull; invitations, Mary Hathaway; re freshments, Rebecca Ireland, Mary Dustin, and Joe Ellis; feature, Mary Skinner; floor, Harry Skin ner; programs, Ed Britts; music, Junior Seton; publicity, Pauline Bondurant. A motion was made and carried that class meetings in the future would be held after dinner at either the College Side Inn or Campa Shoppe dancing rooms, and after the business meeting, the class members would participate in a free dance for one-half or three quarters of an hour. Bill Poulson suggested for a senior class party next term that the members of the class dress in kid costumes and hold a skating party at the Winter Garden after attending the first show at one of, the theatres in town. This would be some time in February, and tentative arrangements will be made for such an affair. The class decided to have the front seats in the two main sec tions of the assembly occupied by seniors only—the men on the left side and the women on the right. Ted Gillenwaters, senior class president, had charge of the meet ing. Oxford Debate Team fs Active in Politics; Wiii Compete Here Dec. 6 (Continued from page one) made an unusual record at Oxford. He served under the foreign office and admiralty in Hollard dur ing the latter part of the war. At New College, Oxford, he won the Lothian prize in 1921, and a “first class” in the Final History School in 1923. He is the former presi dent of the Oxford University Liberal club. Varsity Works Til Dark For Last Big Clash Of Season With Old Rival (Continued from page one) gon and O. A. 0. made against the same schools, the offensive and de fensive power of the varsity and the Beavers is about equal. Ore gon has scored 54 while the Aggies have run up 58 points agaiust the same opponents. This makes the offensive jrnwer of the two teams about on a par. The opponents of Oregon have scored 29 points on the varsity, while the opponents of the Beavers have scored 41 points on the Aggies. This gives a slight edge to Oregon as to defensive power. Oregon Score Highest Against all the teams played this season, the score of Oregon and O. A. C. and their opponents run as follows: Oregon scored 80 to their opponents 50 points. O. A. C. scored 68 to their opponents 64 points. In summarizing the scores of the different teams, it is just about a toss-up as to which team has the edge; however, due to the fact that Oregon toppled* the Hujskjee, the varsity will really enter the Bell arena with slight advantage as far ' as '‘paper-score” dope. In previdus years, Oregon has just about had her own way when she met the Aggies. Seventeen times the varsity has walloped the Beavers in the past twenty-nine contests. Only five times have the Aggies managed to defeat Oregon and seven games have ended in a tie. State Title at Stake The outcome of the game will little affect the standings of either team in the Pacific coast er North west conferences. However the championship of the etate will be at stake when the two elevens meet. Tonight and Friday evening are the only two remaining times for the varsity to workout before going to Corvallis. With the game but a few days away, signal practice and perhaps a light defensive practice will be the only drill held by the men. 0. A. C. Team is Ready For Saturday’s Battle; Two Men Help Lineup (Continued 'from page one) man is willing to give his best, to fight to the last ditch and be car ried from the field rather than yield an inch. The morale of the present team is a splendid thing. Not a man is overconfident, bnt each realizes the task cut out for him. The men as a whole are in bet ter physical condition than they have been at any time since the beginning of the season. “Big Jim” Dixon, the star Beaver tackle, who suffered torn elbow ligaments in the scrimmage prior to the W. S. C. game is again working out with the team and will be ready to start against Oregon. Clarence Bell, half back, is also in the game after a lay-off caused by a broken finger sustained against U. S. C. The presence of these men in the line-up will add both defensive and offensive strength to the Beaver machine. The Aggies had their last scrknr mage before the big game last Saturday. Coach Sehissler is spend ing this week in polishing off the rough spots in the team work and in working up speed in the team play. Thex men have been impressed with the idea that the team which gets the breaks will be on the long end of the score at the finish and all work is being done at top speed. No more do any of the studentB at O. A. C. believe in the legend of the ancient “Oregon Jinx.” That belief was dispelled in the game last year. Now all believe that the team which wins will do so on its own merits, and by virtue of the fight displayed. GRANDSTAND SEATS SELLING OUT RAPIDLY Reservations for the O. A. C. g^ame on Saturday are conning in by telephone, telegraph and by per son and each grandstand is prac tically sold out, according to Jack Benefiel, graduate manager. The upper deck of the south grandstand on Bell field at Corvallis has been thrown open for the game. Al though it is not in the center of the field, the view will be as good as it is on the sides because of the altitude. Every seat will be under cover. Reserved seats are on sale for $2.00 at Obak’s, the Co-op and Jack Benefiel’s office. Students can get their tickets at the Co-op, on presentation of their student body [ cards, for fifty cents. Everyone is urged to take the rally special instead of driving, to relieve the congestion in Corvallis. The tickets for the special are $1.80.
