    TEAM TO PLAY
Oregon Quintet Will Take
First Trip on Thursday;
Three Games Scheduled
FIVE MEN VACCINATED
Locals Make Impressive
Showing for Aggregation
Made Up of New Players
Thursday afternoon, the Oregon
hoop quintet will start on the first
■trip made by the team this season.
The tour takes in games with Mult
nomah Club, Pacific and Willam
ette, to be played on Thursday, Fri
day and Saturday.
Although the games scheduled are
comparatively easy contests, Coach
Beinhart is faced with a rather
r dangerous situation at present. Five
of the men on the varsity have
been vaccinated against small-pox
and it is quite possible that these
men will be lost to the squaid for a
week. The players vaccinated
were: Howard Hobson, Buss Cow
ans, Boy Okerberger, “Swede” Wes
tergren and Frank Beinhart. Should
these men be unable to play, it will
leave the team in a rather precari
ous position with three speedy tilts
on this week’s program. All these
men are working out with the team
at present, having suffered no ill
effects from the vaccination.
Meets Multnomah Tomorrow
Tomorrow evening, the varsity
will meet Multnomah club in what
should prove to be a rather one
sided tilt,' with the Oregon five
encountering little difficulty in
winning. The club men suffered
defeat early in the season at the
hands of the Willamette quintet,
so Multnomah should not prove
dangerous for the Oregonians.
On Friday, the team will play a
return contest with Pacific. Due
to their impressive victory over the
Badgers last week, the Lemon-Yel
low basketeers are slated to repeat
their former hoop victory.
Saturday, the team will line tip
against the Bearcats in the final
game of the trip.
The men making the trip will in
clude: Buss Cowans, Howard Hob
son, Bov Okerberg, Ted Gillen
waters, “Swede” Westergren, Earl
Chiles, Frank Beinhart. Chuck Jost
and Jerry Gunther with Louie An
derson. Clarence Carter and Harold
Llewellyn also probably making the
trip as reserves.
In these three scheduled contests,
^ the line-up will no doubt be the
same as the team that started
against Pacific. Howard Hobson
and Buss Cowans at forward with
Bov Okerberg at center and Teij
Gillenwaters and “Swede” Wester

Basketball Teams
Postpone Practice
During Epidemic
Doughnut basketball has been
indefinitely postponed because of
the number of small-pox vaccina
tion cases among the players. This
is the statement issued yesterday
by Miss Mary J. Shelly, basket
ball instructor in the department
of physical education.
Teams may possibly resume
practice sometime next week. It
was decided that a postponed sea
son was preferable to continu
ous substitution on class teams,
which would only unjustly de
prive players qualified for places
on first teams of points they
would otherwise earn.
Doughnut swimming meets have
been postponed because of the
vaccination preventing the girls
from entering the water. These
meets will begin again sometime
about January 28, it is announced.
ASSEMBLY SPEAKER
TO ADDRESS CLASSES
Thomas Curtin Authority on

which is interested in the study of
international relations will enter
tain Mr. Curtin at luncheon at the

Mr. Curtin has proved himself
popular as a speaker not only be
cause he is an authority on Euro
pean affairs, but because he has k
graphic, and dramatic manner of
presentation. All who are inter
ested in the problems with which

attend the afternoon lecture to his
tory students.
The tentative subject for the as
sembly address is “News in the

DeCOU’S HOLD RECEPTION
FOR MATHEMATICS MAJORS
Mr. and Mrs. E. E. De Cou enter
tained major students in the
mathematics department at a recep
tion at their home* 929 Hilyard
street, Thursday night. During the
receiving hours, which were from 8
to 10 ’oclock, between 30 and 40
of the students majoring in mathe
matics called. Light refreshments
were served by Mrs. DeCou, who
was assisted by Mrs. W. E. Milne,
Mrs. L. L. Smail and Miss Marie
Ridings.
LAND Of FAIRIES TO BE SEEN
IN GUILD HALL PRDUCTION
There is a decided atmospheric
similarity between the musical fan
tasy, “Yellow Candle Light,” the
forthcoming production jit the
dramatic department, with the play
“Peter Pan,” famous throughout
the world of theatre-goers. Both
deal with children and their own
exclusive province—fairy land.
Fergus Reddie, the author of
“Yellow Candle Light” has been
* especially considerate of his treat
ment of his childhood characters.
Each of them is authentic because
of the fact that they were de
scribed to him by a little girl friend
of his who told him about her con
ception of fairies and fairyland.
There are at least four charac
ters in the fantasy who might be
considered as being leads. Mr. Bed
die will take the part of the Court
Wizard in fairv-land who is in
reality the country school master
and who flirts with the country
school mistress whenever the pu
pils are not around. His is a sort
of part that Fred Stone, the comed
ian, would revel in. The Wizard
4
wiH be played in an unreal, almost
mechanical fashion, somewhat like
a giant automaton with superhu
man powers.
Charlotte Banfield, an instructor
in the department, will play the
part of the rotund, prim little
Countess de Thimble who is mis
tress of the fairy princess’s ward
robe and is, in reality, the country
school mistress who accepts the
school master’s advances. The
Countess de Thimble will wear a
thimble, for a hat as the sign, in
fairy land, of the wardrobe mis
tress.
The little girl, Virginia, who sym
bolizes the child in everyone, will
be played by Florence Couch. Na
turally when the scene of the play
changes to fairy-land she is trans
formed into the fairy princess and
her Japanese doll, Moonflower,
played by Mary Fitch, j becomes
her lady in waiting. Virginia, or
“You” as she is called, is the type
of part with which Mary Pickford
has endeared herself to millions of

ministration building. Mr. Vladi
mir Rojansky, research assistant in

Mr. Rojansky is a graduate of
Whitman college, where he made a
brilliant record in mathematics and
physics. He was born in southern
Russia at Kiev. After graduating
from the gymnasium at Kiev, he
studied engineering at Petrograd.
He was there at the outbreak of the
Russian revolution, and served in

Seven-Day Shelf
Receives 38 Books
By Noted Authors
Art and Biography
Lead New List
The library “seven-day book
shelf,” which has been attracting
considerable attention during tho
past week, has been recently aug
mented by the addition of 38 new
books. All the works are of re
cent print, written by well-known
authors, on subjects of general in
terest.
Several of the books are listed
below to illustrate the general na
ture of the collection:
Ossendowski’s “Man and Mystery
in Asia;” Andre Maurios’ “Ariel:
Life of Shelley”; W. II. Wright’s
“Modern Painting”; Horace Green’s
“Life of Calvin Coolidgo”; Vincente
Blasco Ibanez’s “In the Land of
Art”; Charles Bandorus’ “Tolstoi,
the Teacher”; Romain Holland’s
“Mahatma Gandhi”; W. H. Hud
son’s “The Man Napoleon”; Wil
liam Allen White’s “Woodrow Wil
son.”
BUSINESS OFFICE OPEN
FOB PAYMENT DF FEES
Fines to Be Levied After
Ten Day Limit
Today marks the opening of the
foe-paying period for the winter
term. The business office will open
at 8 o’clock this morning and will
remain open until 4 p. m. to take
care of the opening rush.
Students will be allowed 10 days,
or until January 31, to settle course
and registration fees. This is a
longer period than usual, and since
it also contains two Saturdays, leav
ing time for those who are too busy
during school days to pay their fees,
the business staff expects to got
most of tho money collected within
tho allotted time.
Those who delay until the last
minute will be in danger of paying j
an extra fee. This is three dollars i
for the first day after the period I
ends, and 25 cents for each suc
ceeding day.
The business office will be open ;
daily until 4 p. m., and students are ;
asked by the business staff to come
as early as possible in order to cut
down the last minute crowds. Those
who come early in the day will
likewise have the most chance of
receiving attention.
Again the warning against is
suing N. R. E. checks is sounded.
Last term students paid to the Uni
versity over $1,000 worth of cheeks
which were not covered by funds.
Such action, it is declared by Uni
versity officials, will not receive the
usual toleration, and severe penal
ties are imminent unless the evil
ends. Realizing that" the issuance
of such checks is often due to care
lessness, students are asked to make
sure that they have enough in the
J bank to cover the amount of the
I checks before issuing them.

EXPOSED STUDENTS
ORDERED IMNKTEO
At five o’clock yesterday there
were still 27 students who have
been exposed to smallpox who have
failed to report to the dispensary
for vaccination. Thoso who have
complied with the ruling comprise
a comparatively small percentage
of those who were in classes of
which Miss Marian Norman was a
member.
Miss Norman is in Portland with
small pox and the stato board of
health has ordered that everyone in
any of her classes be vaccinated or
quarantined. Beginning today all
those 27 students who have not been
vaccinated will be refused admit
tance to classes until they have sub
mitted to tho requirements. If they
fail to be vaccinated soon, steps
will be takon to havo them quar
antined.
Letters were sent out yesterday
to the various living organizations
telling them of tlio quarantine rul
ing and informing them of the stu
*donts in their organizations who
have as yet failed to report to tho
dispensary.
Yesterday there were 212 patients
at the dispensary as compared t.o
the usual number which averages
about 80. Of the patients yester
day, 155 were there for vaccination.
This makes a total of between four
and fivo hundred who havo been
vaccinated since the small pox
broke out last week.
Clean bandages will bo supplied
at both tho men's and womon’s
gym, stated Dr. G. A. Ross. They
can also be obtained at the dispen
sary. No excuses from gym classes
will be issued to students by the
dispensary, with the exception of
those taking swimming. Excuses
from swimming will only be given
when students become ill from the
effects of vaccination.
