TOKIO GROWING INTO NEW CITY S. Doi, Dealer in Japanese Prints, Sees Growth HAS FAMOUS OLD PRINTS New York Collectors Buy Most of Stock A new Tokio—that is what S. Doi, Japanese print dealer, who was on the campus all day yester day-gives as his present impres sion of the earthquake-swept city. His shop at Number 10, Suchirocho street, has been rebuilt on the old site near a park. His wife and children and one assistant care for it in his absence in America. However, with all the building going on, only temporary struc tures are permitted by the govern ment to be built. This is because the new Tokio will not bo like the old one of narrow and tortuous streets. It will have wide streets and boulevards, and straight streets, at that. Perhaps the little one near the paTk will be left as it is, but for the most part the city will be laid out on a definite modern plan. Prints axe Old The prints which Mr. Doi brought with him are for the. most part in tended for collectors in Chicago and New York. They vary in price from a few dollars to a thousand dollars. The oldest one in the col lection is by the Japanese artist Masamorbu Okumura, who was born in 1704 and died in 1702. Previous to the influx of Euro peans into Japan, the Japanese went their own way in matters of art. Now, however, European standards are making themselves felt. Europeans prefer simple sub jects—one or two figures in a print. The most popular landscapes are rain views, snow views and night views. With the coming of the French, English, American and German art dealers, the prints of this type were bought up, and prices bogan to follow the laws of supply and demand. The foreigners car ried off to their countries, in this way, some of the 'choicest of the prints. Famous Prints .Included Matsuzata, a millionaire Japan ese ship Vtuilder, recently expended over $1,000,000 of money made in his shipyards buying Japanese prints in France and returning them to a collection in his native country. Hokusai's famous wave print, done in blue, white and gray, was included in Mr. Hoi’s prints this time. A reproduction of it was sent by him during the summer as a gift to the University school of archi tecture and allied arts. Mr. Hoi will go on to New York from here, and after a two-week stay in that city will return to the new Tokio, and the little shop at Number 10, Suchiroeho street.

Ancient Animal Life is Discussed at Assembly By Geology Authority (Continued from page one) an aid to gathering food when the animal’s short nock prevented it from bending. The sicker declared that, horses originated not i:\ Asia but in North America. In this connection, he said that ^ossils discovered in the John Day valley had helped mater ially in tracing the history of this animal. The horse, it was pointed out, developed from a five toed to a one toed animal by a long process of survival of the fittest. The work of the Asiatic expedi tion was discussed by Dr. Cogge shall who told of some of the find ings of the party. Stories of interesting discoveries by geologists were related. A story was told of a Russian expedition discovering a mammoth that had fallen into an ice crevice about 25,000 years ago and had remained intact throughout that time. The animal served as a great aid to | scientists for not only was a fine specimen of the animal obtained, the speaker stated, but by examin ing the contents of the animal’s stomiach information was also gath ered as to its food and of the vege tation existing at that time. Preceding the assembly a resolu tion of condolence on the death of Morrison Miller was adopted by the student body. Randall Jones, A. S. U. O. presi dent, addressed the meeting and ex plained the postponement of the sophomore informal. A parade of the O. A. C. beaver guarded by several Order of the “O” men was a signal for a great j outburst at the opening of the meeting. Doughnut Debate Ends With Hendricks Hall, Alpha Beta Chi Winners i - (Continued from page one) the Zeta Kappa Psi cup for the en suing year. The debates last night were the deciding contests to determine the victor in the women’s doughnut league and in the men’s douglhnut loaguo. Preliminary debates were held last week and the first of this week to eliminate all but three teams in each league for the finals. The next doughnut debate that will take place will be between the Hendricks hall teams and the Alpha Beta Chi teams. The question argued last night is the same that is being discussed by the varsity squads. It is re solved that the Japanese exclusion act be amended to admit Japanese on the same basis as Europeans are admitted. The affirmative team of Hen dricks hall is composed of Margaret Clarke and Leona Williams; the negative being upheld by Alta Knips and Aline Buster. The Alpha Beta Chi teams are Wilford Long and Max Bobinson, affirmative; Elam Amstutz and Eric Norman, negative: The debates held this year were the most closely contested of sev eral years, according to the judges. A special debate was held Wednes day night to run off a tie between 'Delta Zeta and Susan Campbell. This year was the first year to see the use of one judge to make decisions in the preliminary de bates. The final debates were judged by three faculty members to each contest. It is the belief of the debate managers that the one judge debates will be used in the doughnut contests next year. America is Provincial Says Dr. L.

OXFORD DEBATE TEAM DEFEATED BY MICHIGAN Before an audience of ^,000 peo ple the Oxford debating team was defeated by the University of Michigan team, one of whose mem bers is Gerritt Demmink, assistant professor in debating and written English here last year.
