RIFLE CONTEST WON BY KAPPA Winning Squad Makes Total Score of 436 Points W.A.A. IN DIRECT CHARGE Varsity Team of 30 Girls May be Formed First place in the girls’ dough nut rifle competition, which was concluded last week, was won by the Kappa Kappa Gamma team with a total of 436 points. The highest individual score was 94 and was made by Elizabeth Talbot, Kappa Kappa Gamma. The final standings of the vari ous teams are as follows: Kappa Kappa Gamma, 436; Alpha Xi Del ta, 425; Alpha Delta Pi, 423; Alpha Chi Omega, 417; Kappa Omicron, 414; Girls’ Oregon club, 413; Kap pa Alpha Theta, 411; Hendricks hall, 407; Susan Campbell hall, 406; Thacher cottage, 403; Alpha Phi, 386; Sigma Beta Pi, 381; Pi Beta Phi, 380j Delta Zcta, 37(5, High Scores Made •The six hipest individual scores ■were: Elizabeth Talbot, Kappa Kap pa Gamma, 94; Gertrude Keber, Alpha Delta Pi, 93; Gwendolyn Powell, Kappa Alpha Theta, 92; Mary Titus, Kappa Kappa Gam ma, 91; Dorothy Wagner, Tbaclier Cottage, 91; Audrey Haror, Oregon Club, 90. Thirteen living organizations and the Girl’s Oregon club entered teams in this year’s, competition. About 90 of the 150 girls who were originally listed for tryouts fired the record practice. W. A. A. In Charge Organizations were allowed to en ter from fivo to ten candidates, the five highest scores being counted in record praetico. Por the first time, the Women's Athletic association was directly in charge of entering teams, appointing team captains and otherwise conducting adminis trative details. This arrangement, according to Captain J. T. Murray, officer in charge of the matches, is more sat isfactory than direct supervision by the military department and gives to the matches a desirable 'aspect. Other Institutions Challenge The question of a varsity team is still undecided, although thero seems to be a considerable desiro on the part of the girls for one. Thorei are on file about a, dozen challenges ' from other institutions. If a varsity team be organized, it is necessary that from 20 to 30 girls agree to devote a minimum of five hours a week to practice and preliminary work. It is believed that a sufficient number of girls will rospond if n definite assurance of a point of award can be given.

Christmas Seal Results Are Huge in Oregon State Red Cross Seals Aid in Fight Against Nation’s Tuberculosis The Christmas Seal is with us again. Seven million of them have throughout been distributed the state of Oregon to be sold during the month of De cember to finance the “Fight Tuber culosis — Give Health” cam paign. The seal, with its bold vic torious figure, typifies the move ment which it has financed so suc cessfully that within the last four teen years the death rate from tu berculosis has been cut in half in tho United States. Throughout the country, one hundred thousand peo ple are enjoying'the Christmas sea son, who would have perished if the disease were as uncontrolled ias it was a decade and a half ago. In Oregon, the toll in tuberculo sis deaths in 1923 was 623, and the best estimates indicate that about 5000 pcoplo in the state are af flicted, Tuberculosis is now char acterized by leading specialists as a preventable, curable disease, and one that need not menace the lives of our citizens, if known measures of prevention and proper living are put into practice. The chief object of tlie Christ mas Seal Sale is to finance the edu cational campaign which will help equip the general public with such information about the maintenance of their health, that tuberculosis shall be ultimately eliminated as a destroyer of mankind. Oregon Colony in New York Seems Pleased With Football Team (Continued from page one) in Columbia, recently say: “If Dr. Moiklojohn starts a university of his own, as he is thinking of do ing, I will quit here and go to it.” The world is a small place after all. Even in this city of seven millions one bumps into some old friend, or acquaintance, or the friend of a friend, almost every day. Yestordny this writer ran in to a former associate of Del Ober teuffer, and wo had a good talk and got acquainted on the strength of knowing Oregon’s old yoll king. This time last year “Obie” was treading these campus paths of Columbia. * * # The New York gang likes Don Woodward's Emerald. Several of us who have seen service with the sheet often have a secret hankering to be back in tho harness for a night or two just for old times sake. The Oregonian is in tho files of the Pulitzer school of journal ism but little or no University news is forthcoming from it. A visit to Boston and Now Hnv cn last wook gave a good chance to sou Harvard and Yale. In Boston, Harry Huggins, George Houck, Ed die Hurno and Ernie Boylen, all former Oregonians, were seen and found to bo working hard and well pleased with results. Going out with Harry on slumming calls was an interesting experience. Oregon men are all making good records at Harvard.

Most of the larger houses have in addition to their home a tomb for meetings which equals in cost many western houses. Princeton is probably the most attractive of the “big three,” as a place to live. It is like a wonderful country club. The writer saw the Army-Notre Dame game and the Princeton-Yale game. Neither the brand of foot ball, nor the crowd equaled the game he saw last fall in Los An geles between California and U. S. C. and probably did not compare with the Oregon-Washington game of this year. Eastern football re ceives so much more publicity than that in the west that eastern play ers get a prestige out of propor tion to that accorded western stars. The crowds of old grads that attend eastern games do much to add qual ity to the spirit of the occasion. Oregoniftns are glad to see eastern football, but every one of us would have given an arm to >ihave been seated beside Colonel Leader at the O. A. C.-Oregon classic. * » * Hank Foster, Oregon track star, is making great progress in the Co lumbia school of physical education. Hank will probably be the head of a big school of education before many years pass. * * « Tho doing of a blaster *s thesis is requiring considerable moving around to various eastern cities. A few Emeralds and an Old Oregon stuck in a suitcase always arm one for the onslaught of some stray .Oregonian, whom one finds in his wanderings and who is always hungry for news of Oregon. *. * * Hew York Oregonians join with the campus in giving three “Os kies” for Maddock. Now we’ll begin watching for basketball dope. We’re all for Billy, too. Allen Eaton, an old Oregon booster, is gathering the names of all Oregon people now in New York, and soon a big “bust” will be held that will be so full of Ore gon spirit that echoes may be heard in tho basement of Villard. * * * I)r.

I The difference between campus; life at Columbia and that which we have known at Oregon is striking. ! Columbia is a great efficient edu- i cational machine, where the typi-1 cal “hard-boiled” New Yorker at titude prevails. There is little of j the kind of school spirit in evi 'dence that universities in smaller towns know. A great many stu dents live in the city and have no interest in Columbia as a school. Undergraduate work is only fair in quality, while graduate work is un usually good. For the undergrad uate the roar of the subway takes the place of the roar of a rally; \ the bright lights of Broadway sup- j plant the glow of the homecoming! bonfire; the bond of friendship be- j tween members of the student body , is lessened by the fascination of i complex city life. Even the few i feet of “green” which did re-1 semble a campus is being torn up to make room for two new sky scraper university buildings. TO-KO-LO LUNCHEON IS SET FOR THIS NOON A luncheon for all alumni, active members, and pledges of To-Ko-Lo, men’s honorary sophomore society will be held this noon 'at the Cam pa Shoppe. Dean Colin V.
