MEDICAL SCHOOL
FUNDS GRANTED
Students Permitted Use
Of Multnomah Hospital
For Observation Work
AUDITORIUM IS PLANNED
Attitude of Legislature
Favors University; All
Appropriations Passed
Despite a strict economy program
adopted by the state legislature in
allowing appropriations, the Uni
versity was granted the funds re
quested without reduction, accord
ing to Karl Onthank, executive sec
retary of the University, who re
turned to Eugene after the close
of the legislative sessions, Thurs
day night.
The appropriations concerned
only the medical school, at Port
land. That branch of the Univer
sity is maintained by appropria
tion alone, whereas the rer1. of the
school is supported by the millage
tax. No requests for funds were
issued this year, other than for the
medical school.
The school itself was allowed
$114,161 for two year’s mainten
ance. $61,060 was allowed for one
year’s maintenance of the Doern
becher children’s hospital, on which
construction will soon begin. Bids
for work have been opened and the
contract will be awarded within a
few days. The structure will
probably be ready for use late next
fall. It is being built with money
from a fund of $200,000 willed for
such purposes.
Auditorium is Allowed
Two other bills passed allow stu
dents at the medical school the use
of the Multnofliah county'- hospital
for observation and other work re
lated to their studies, and permits
the Eugene city council and the
board of regents to make arrange
ments for erecting an auditorium on
the campus. The latter provision
is meant to remove obstacles which
might arise to hinder work when
started.
Besides these measures, 20 bills
which indirectly bore on Univer
sity affairs were introduced. The
majority of these were withdrawn
or failed to pass* while the re
mainder were so amended that they
cannot have any injurious' effect
on the school.
Resolutions are Adopted
Resolutions were adopted thank
ing the Doernbecher and Jackson
estates for their gifts to the Uni
versity. Another asked Congress to
build a veteran’s hospital in Port
land on the medical school grounds.
Mr. Onthank declared that the
attitude of the legislature toward
the school was exceptionally fine.
Although other appropriations were
pared as much as possible, the
school was allowed its requests in
full.

UNCLAIMED ARTICLES WILL GO
TO HIGHEST BIDDER, TUESDAY
By E. Cady
“What am I bid for this fine
scarf ? One dollar? Oh, that’s too
little for this excellent wearing ap
parel. One-fiftv? That’s better.
Two? Fine, who’ll make it two
fiftv? Two-fifty? Two-seventy
five? Anybody going to raise that
bid? No? . . . Going for two
seventy-five! Going—going—gone,
for two-seventy-five!” The voice
of one of the campus auctioneers,
Randall Jones, James Leake, and
Bob Mautz, falls thus upon the ears
of the listeners.
Scarfs, jewelry, compacts, men’s
hats, coats and caps, umbrellas,
and every conceivable object under
the sun, will be knocked down to
the highest bidder, next Tuesday,
from 10 to 12, on the library steps.
They come from the University lost
and found department, being those
accumulated up to last November.
The auction sale is under the aus
pices of the Women’s League.
Collect all the coppers, folks, and
join the eager throng. Don’t
crowd! If you come early enough,
you ’ll get enough space to stand
on! It’s the first of the month, too,
you know, and the mail the day be
fore will have been full of “checks
from home.” Bring them (along.
They may come in handy!
Most of the things are in first
class condition, and all will un
doubtedly be just what someone
wants. If you are in need of an
umbrella, coat, cap, hat, or any
small miscellaneous article, wait
until the auction to make your
purchase, and you will be wealthier
in the end.
One day more, Monday, from 3
to 3:30 p. m. will be given to those
who, thinking that they might have
something in the collection which
they wish to redeem, want to iden
tify their belongings. The assort
ment is stored in the Theta Sigma

Women’s Fencing
Discontinued Due
To Lack of Foils
All women’s classes in fencing
are to be suspended until suf
ficient equipment can be ob
tained. To continue classes un
der the present regime necessi
tating the use of numerous make
shifts would do more harm than
good to the knowledge already
gained, according to Clinton Dav
isson, instructor of the sport.
“It is indeed unfortunate that
our first attempt to introduce
fencing to the girls has met with
so many obstacles,” he said.
Although eighty women signed
up for the sport only a scant sixty
reported for class work. Before
the suspension of this activity, it
was estimated that there were
fifty girls attending classes regu
larly twice a week. These “reg
ulars” are highly enthusiastic
and declare that the sport is un
usually fascinating. There is
magic in the very terms of foils,
rapiers, etc.
The work has consisted mainly
in drill in the basic exercises;
the girls have learned what is
meant by “parry” and “lunge;”
they have been told how to per
form offensive and defensive
movements. The point to be
stressed now is practice.
DOUGHNUT HANDBALL
FINALS DUE MONDAY
Sigma Nu and Oregon Club
To Play Final Game
The doughnut handball final
game will be played Monday after
noon between the teams from Sig
ma Nu and Oregon club. These
teams have downed all competitors
so far and will vie for the dough
nut championship.
In the semi-final games held this
week, the boys from Sigma Nu
derailed the hopes of Kappa Delta
Phi by slipping a score of 21-15
21-12 over them. Oregon club left
Sigma Pi Tau holding the small end
of a 21-19 and 21-3 score at the
termination of two rounds.
The game Monday is expected
to be a real clash with honors about
even as the comparative scores
so far show. Both teams have been
handling out decisive drubbings to
the opposition.
This final game will terminate,
doughnut activities for this term
but with the opening of the spring
term other sports will be put on
the program that will call for real
team work and individual prowess.
Baseball and traek are the out
standing sports for next term.
AUSTRALIAN SPEAKS
TO DISCUSSION GROUP
Miss Hayden, an Australian who
has been in the United States only
one month, Bpoke to the World
Fellowship discussion group study
ing Australia at the Anchorage yes
terday noon.
“The national flower of Austral
ia is the wattle flower, a yellow
blossom which grows on large
trees. Oh, yes, of course we have
kangaroos, emus and boomerangs! ”
At this point Miss Hayden brought
out one of the weapons and showed
it to her audience.
Wool is the greatest source of
wealth in Australia, according to
Miss Hayden, and is closely fol
lowed by wheat, fruit, poultry and
grapes.
The foremost problem in Aus
tralia today, Miss Hayden said, is
whether the government shall re
strict immigration to English immi
grants and keep the country idle,
or open the doors to all and put
uncultivated lands into immediate
use. America’s increased restric
tion has caused tHe problem to
grow, she said.

Miss Grace Louks, representative
of the national student board of
the Y. W. C. A., will be on the cam

Ellen McClellan, chairman of the
World Fellowship discussion groups.
Miss Louks plans to hold two
discussion groups with students
here. Each group is to meet with
her one hour every day of her vis
it. The first group will consist of
about fifty invited girls who will
take part in the discussion of cam
pus problems. These girls will be
chosen for the interest and ability
they have shown in past activities
on the campus. The second group
will be smaller, and made up only
of girls who have led discussions
this year or may lead next year.
Their talks will be based chiefly
on technique of leading discussions.
Leadership is Desired
The discussions, Miss McClellan
believes, will be a help in develop
ing leadership among the girls, and
will be a preparation for coping
with problems which will necessar
ily arise in connection with the Wo
man 's League convention which
will be held here during spring
term.
Having done special research
work on discussion groups at Colum
bia university, Miss Louks is well
equipped to instruct the girls. She

of all discussion feature work at
the Student Volunteer convention
at Indianapolis, Indiana, in 1923,
which was attended by several stu
dents on this campus.
Attendance May Be Arranged
This is Miss Louks' first trip

members in Condon hall yesterday
afternoon.
Margaret Vincent, chairman for
the campus luncheon, announced
that a meeting of the members of
her committee would be called the
first week of the spring term. Pre
vious to that time, no definite plans
for the luncheon will be made.
Clarence Toole, canoe fete chair
man, reported that the lighting
committee had been selected, and
that plans are rapidly being shaped.
New bleachers at both ends of the
present bleachers will be construc

crease the seating capacity ap
proximately 400,
The queen for the fete will prob
ably be chosen the first of April

James Scripture, junior prom
chairman, named Arthur Gale', of
Bandon, as chairman of the decora

VARSITY-HUSKIES
III FINAL CLASH
Oregon Must Win Game to
Tie Aggies for Pacific
Coast Conference Title
PLAYERS IN GOOD SHAPE
Washington Wants Revenge
For Defeat on Gridiron;
Victor in Previous Tilt
Oregon and Washington, tradi
tional rivals, meet in basketball on
the Seattle floor tonight in the last
scheduled game of the conference
for both teams. Oregon must win
the game to keep in the running for
the Pacific Coast conference title.
Washington will fight hard to win
in order to make second place. The
Huskies will battle hard also be
cause they have never forgotten the
defeat handed them last fall in
football.
The odds seem to slightly fjivor
the varsity, for Oregon has won
more games so far than has Wash
ington, and has beaten teams that
have defeated the Huskies. Idaho
soundly trounced Washington, and
Oregon in turn defeated Idaho.
Huskies Have Advantage
The Huskies will have a distinct
advantage in playing on their home
floor, and also they will be hopped
up because of their victory over
the Webfeet earlier in the season
at Eugene. The game will easily
be the hardest fought contest
played this year on any conference
floor.
In addition to the flood of tele
grams that have gone to Coach
Reinhart and his team a good sized
rooting section will be on hand.
Every student who could find a
way to go to Seattle left last night,
and the old Oregon “Oskies” will
ring out in the Huskie gym with
the spirit, if not the volume, of the
3,000 Orepon students praying for
victory.
Team in Good Shape
The Oregon team, to judge from
stories of the previous games, is in
good shape for the contest tonight.
Okerberg will start at center, Hob
son and Qowans at forwards, and
Westergren and Jost at guards.
Washington will probably > start
Hesketh and Frayne, forwards, An
derson, center; and Cobly and Hale
at guards.
If Oregon wins the contest, a
three-game series with O. A. C. will
be arranged, probably for next
week, to determine the Northern
squad that is to meet the southern
vinners for the Pacific Coast title.
NIGHT WATCHMAN TELLS STORY
OF LONG HOURS OF DARKNESS
By J. De P.
“Wonder what a night watchman
thinks about!”
The question as mere speculation
is not quite so intriguing as when
the same query is directed at the
nightwatchman himself. J. W.
Bradway, nightwatchman for the
north end of the campus for 13
years, has thought about a good
many things.
During the course of his noc
turnal vigile he has philosophized,
pondered, schemed and dreamed—
and has his own explanation of
things.
“My job isn’t what you would
call downright interesting,” said
Bradway, speaking with a drawling
Uiid-western accent. “During my
thirteen years I haven’t run across
anything more startling than a
couple of quarrelsome cats. It never
gets monotonous and I have plenty
of time to think about things folks
never give a second thought.”
“Now take some folks,” he con
tinued after lighting bis pipe lei
surely, “you know how they always
say they hate silence and seem to
shun itT Well, I can’t say that
I’ve found it so bad—after I found
out it was about the only place a
man can be really truthful with
himself.
“It’s funny how I can sort of
fashion things in the silence of the
night and then take them out and
air them when it grows daylight.
Then, t.oo, at night there are no
shadows or disturbing sounds to oc
cupy the mind—everything seems
to work in a kind of silent har
mony.
“I was thinking about this thing
of shadows in real life and the
shadows of the mind. They are al
ways behind us in the morning and
the same it is in the morning of
life; around about noon, we step
all over ’em; and at evening they
stretch way out in front of us to
remind *us of what’s coming, I
guess. I was thinking of that the
other night and wondered if that
