EDSAfllEEMASTERS
. TO APPEAR HERE SOON
Edgai Lee Masters, the distin
guished American poet, will be
beard at the Woman’s building,
March 9. He is the second of a
series of lecturers who are to ap
pear before the student body.
Mr. Masters is the author of
“Spoon Biver Anthology,” which
has been characterized as the most
thought-provoking book of poems
of modern times. Spoon Biver is
not altogether an imaginary compo
sition as there is in Illinois, near
the home of the poet a river of
that name.
It was while wandering through
the cemetery that the idea came to
him to interpret the epitaphs and
the names of the dead. The thing
that makes Spoon Biver doubly
interesting is the fact that every
vicinity has its Spoon Biver. The
-characters which Masters has made
to live again through his interpreta
tion of them are the same char
acters that aTe to be found in any
small community. His interpreta
tion is vital, interesting, and clear
cut to a degree that the reappear
ance of those people from the dead
is uncanny.
“Spoon Biver Anthology” was
published in 1914. The book and
the author are known all over the
English-speaking world. These facts
show the tremendous hold that this
poet has on modern society. Mr.
Masters is the third of the modern
poets to appear on the campus with
in the last two years. Carl Sand
burg and Vachel Lindsay at
tracted unusually large campus
andiences.

NEW MILITARY
-SCHEDULE MADE
Program, Recently Received
From War Department,
Changes R.O.T.C. Course
ALL CLASSES AFFECTED
Plan Improves Arrangement
Of Subjects and Hours;
New Work Also Included
A new program of instruction for
senior division infantry units of the
Reserve Officers Training Corps
has recently been received at head
quarters of the local unit from the
War department at Washington,
D. C. The new program, which be
comes effective next year at all It.
O. T. C. schools, represents a dis
tinct advance in general arrange
ment of subjects and allotment of
time.
Such changes as can be made this
year, in order that the new program
may be applied more readily next
year, will be put into effect during
the spring. The new program pre
sents many sweeping changes over
the present program.
The first two years basic course
for the men is planned to give stu
dents a sufficient military educa
tion to enable them to function as
combat non-commissioned officers
of the infantry. This work is com
pulsory for all first and second year
men in the University.
The advanced course of the jun
ior and senior years is planned to
add to the basic course sufficient
military knowledge to qualify the
students to perform the duties of
second lieutenants of the infantry
Beginning with the school year
1925-26, the new program which
follows, will be in effect:
First year basic course work:
Marksmanship, 15 hours; military
courtesy, 3 hours; military hygiene
and first aid, 8 hours; physical
drill, 6 hours; command and leader
ship (infantry drill), 64 hours.
Total, 96 hours. The amount of
actual military work for each term
is 32 hours.
Second year basic course: Scout
ing and patrolling, 12 hours; mus
ketry, 10 hours; interior guard du

FOOTBALL PRACTICE
SUSPENDED FOR TERM
Owing to the nearness of exam
inations for this term and the fact
that many of the men are getting
low in their grades, all spring foot
ball practice has been suspended by
Coach Dick Smith until the begin
ning of the spring term. The final
workout of the term was held yes
terday afternoon with more than
two full teams in action running
signals, catching passes and punt
ing.
With the beginning of next term
practice will be held each evening
with stricter attention given to
each man being out in a suit every
afternoon. Three weeks of inten
sive and hard work is in store for
the some 60 men who have drawn
suits. Scrimmage will be included
together with fundamentals, pas
sing, punting, blocking, and new
plays. Coach Smith expects to do
considerable toward lining up the
men who will make up the 1925
varsity and for that reason he is
stressing regular attendance to all
workouts.
Motion pictures of the Notre
Dame style of play as coached by
Knute Rockne, will be exhibited to
football men as a part of their
training. The actual time when
these pictures will be shown is to
be announced at a later date in the
Emerald. The pictures give a more
thorough knowledge of some of the
plays which have been given out
for spring football together with
I many new ones.
VICTOR Y OVER HUSKIES
TIES OREGON AND O. A. C.
PLAY-OFF SERIES
DUES ARE SET
Two of Contests Arranged
For Eugene and Corvallis;
Third Wot Yet Settled
l/ISITING FAWS LIMITED
The Oregon quintet will meet O.
A. C. on Friday and Saturday night
in a play-off series for the cham
pionship of the northern section of
the Pacific Coast conference. The
first game will be played at Eu
gene while on Saturday, the Lem
on-Yellow will journey to Corval
lis. ..,**•*--*
Both games are scheduled to
start at 7:30. The third contest, if
necessary, will be played on Mon
day. The floor for this tilt has
not as yet bedn selected, but from
all indications, the teams will prob
ably meet in the Willamette Uni
versity gym at Salem.
For the convenience of both Ore
gon and Aggie students, a long
distance phone service will be in
stalled. Over the phone will come
the complete play by play reports,
so that it will be possible for Ore
gon students to attend the Frosh
glee on Saturday night and still
get complete retttffl&T
Few Tickets Allowed
It will be practically impossible
for very many Oregon fans to at
tend the Corvallis game or for Ag
gie followers to come to the Eu
gene contest. The athletic com
mittee decided to allow only 100
tickets to the visiting students on
each night, so only a few Oregon
supporters will be able to attend
the game on student tickets. How
ever, the “phone” play by play re
ports will give students first hand
information on the progress of the
contest.
The tickets for the games will not
go on sale for a day or two, how
ever, the price for admittance will
probably be set today by the Uni
versity finance committee.
The athletic representatives at
the meeting yesterday were: for
Oregon, Billy Reinhart, Jack Bene
fiel and Virgil Earl. The O. A
C. representatives were W. A.
Kearns, athletic director; Bob Hag
er, basketball coach and Carl Lo
dell, graduate manager.
Place Is Question
The only hitch in the arranged
schedule is the possibility of a
mix-up at Eugene. The armory is
now being used by a religious so
ciety and it may be impossible to
secure the place for a game on Fri
day night. Another factor is that
the armory will not be available
for practice this week, which will
handicap the Oregon five for the
championship series.
The arranging for the games this
week-end instead of holding them
earlier is a decided advantage for
the Oregonians. The team as a
whole is badly banged-up from the
effects of the northern trip. Oker
berg and Jost are recovering from
badly sprained ankles. Ted Gillen
waters has recently had a minor
operation while “Swede” Wester
gren is getting over the effects of
a wrenched back. With a week in
terval before play, the team should
be in their usual playing form and
ready to give the Aggie hoopsters
a stiff battle.
FORMER OREGON STUDENT
TO DO GRADUATE WORK
G. Verne Blue, ’22, who is now
teaching history at University of
Hawaii, in Honolulu, is planning
to return to the Pacific coast next
year, according to a letter received
by Dr. R. C. Clark, head of the
University history department. Mr.
Blue has been teaching in Hawaii
for two years. While on the coast,
he will complete his graduate work
at the University of California. Mr.
Blue was president of the French
club during his undergraduate days.
Coach Billy Reinhart

=3>
I
■S»
As I walked into an office in search of a phone between
the halves of the Oregon-Washington game at Seattle last
Saturday night George Varnell, known all up and down the
coast as one of the greatest athletic officials that ever called a
decision, and now associate editor of the Seattle Times, was
speaking.
I>illy Reinhart is by far the finest sportsman I have ever
met, he was saying, “and in spite of his years, he is the best
basketball coach on the Pacific Coast. There are just two
reasons why his team, composed of young men, many of them
playing their first conference games, have come out like they
have this season. One is their wonderful fight, the like of
which I have never seen before, and the other is their coach.
“Billy has a personality that is positively inspiring. No
man that really loves basketball could ever do anything else
but give his all to the game when Reinhart is around. Nor is
his personality all he has. No team ever was as carefully drill
ed in the fundamentals of the game as his men are. No team
ever played so smoothly together. Billy hasn’t a ‘wonder team’
—he has a team of men that are fighters like he is.”
This sentiment was echoed by the men in the room—Cliff
Harrison, sporting editor of the Times; Bart Spellman, Oregon’s
former line coach, Darwin Meisnest, graduate manager of the
Unviersity of Washington, and a half dozen or so of newspaper
&jjuns writers.
Oregon students know a bit about Billy Reinhart, but not
as much as they should. He is the youngest basketball coach
in the conference. He is an Oregon man—played at Oregon,
and has coached no where else. His teams have always been a
credit to the University.
To have his qualities recognized by men not of Oregon, men
who know him only by his work, means a great deal. Billy
Reinhart, is a man that is gaining glory for his University by
hard work.
Billy has fought a good fight this season, and he has won
even more than he dared hope. At the start he had but few
seasoned men around which to build his team. But he went
to work, saying nothing, putting out no bear stories. “We’re
going to give them all we’ve got,” he said, “and if we don’t
some out on top this year, there’s next season, and the one after
that. Most of these boys will be back.”
The Pacific Coast will now hear a great deal about Billy
Reinhart. He has made his place—a place well earned and
deserved.
Oregon is proud of her basketball coach, and proud of the
team he has made this year.
GEORGE H. GODFREY,
Sports Editor, Emerald.
WOMEN’S DEBATE MEET
Complete changes have been
made in the schedule for the next
women’s debate. This triangle
event included California, Wash
ington and Oregon, and was set for
rhursday, March 5. The Univer
sity of California has withdrawn
from the meet, which will now be a
lual affair between Washington
ind Oregon, taking place early in
April.
The subject for discussion is,
“Resolved: That the pending Child
Labor measure should be made a
constitutional amendment.”
Unusually keen interest is being
shown in this event, evidenced by
the number of women who have re
ported for preparatory woric on tne
topic. Frances Cherry, who made
a creditable showing in the old line
oratory try-outs, Flora Campbell, a
senior who coached debate and ora
tory in an Idaho academy last year,
Helen Louise Crosby, a member of
the debate team which met Wash
ington last year and Aline Buster
and Dorothy Newman, members of
the team which met O. A. C. a few
weeks ago, ar^ the aspirants trying
out for the two positions on the
affirmative team.
This number will be reduced to
three aspirants in about two weeks,
announced the coach.
Cecil McKercher and Mildred
Bateman are the negative team
which will meet the Washington af
firmative at Seattle. Miss Mc
Kercher has participated in dough
nut debating and had considerable
! experience on the squad last year.
Miss Bateman is perhaps the most
[ experienced woman debator on the
. campus.

FIGHT WINS ALL
GAMES III NOHTH
j Varsity Battles Through
Three Contests in Spite
Of Injuries to Players
VANDAL TILT HARDEST
Telegrams Sent to Team
By Dozens Help Bolster
Squad for Hard Clash
Oregon students now rejoicing in
the varsity victory over the Univer
sity of Washington last Saturday
night are already familiar with the
newspaper story of the game. The
contest was called fast and close,
and described in the regulation way.
The final score was 35 to 26, Oker
berg was high point man with 13,
while Hesketh was next with 12.
Westergren piled up a total of 10.
But the real story of the game
was not told, nor even hinted. The
news dispatches merely related the
action they saw on the floor at the
Washington gymnasium.
The story of the Washington
game must start long before the
Oregon squad arrived in Seattle. It
must begin with the last Orogon-O.
A. C. contest held here. The loss of
that meant thatfr the varsity must
win all three of her northern
games in order to get another
chance for the northern division
title.
The echo of the final gun on that
ill-fated night had not yet died out
when the Oregon men were already
planning on the play-off contests
with the Aggies. To go north and
beat three teams of first class con
ference ability seemed an almost
hopeless task, yet that was what the
men, with their coach, Billy Rein
hart. set out to do.
Six Men Injured
Washington State, the first op
ponent, was a bit easier than ex
pected, the varsity winning by 43
to 16. The game was no snap, how
ever, and when it was over, the out
look for Idaho two nights later was
anything but heartening. Okerberg
and Jost were suffering with
sprained ankles, Ted Oillenwaters
underwent a minor operation the
next day, and Carter was out with
an ulcerated tooth. Hobson’s arm,
still bothered him, while Swede
Westergren had wrenched his back.
But Billy plied hot cloths and
liniment, and by starting time had
his men patched up enough to enter
the game. How they wont in there
and played as they did for 40 min
uts is something that even the
coach cannot understand. Oker
berg’s ankle was twice normal size,
yot he never seemed to notice it,
and the other men labored under
conditions nearly as adverse. '
The Idaho battle was the hardest
of the season. The score was tied
five times during the game, with
neither team able to pile up a safe
lead. Oregon won by just two
points, 26 to 24.
Fighting Spirit Shown
Tlie squad then made the long
jump to Seattle, whore the next two
days were spent in patching up the
men. This was even more of a job
than that preceding the Vandal
battle, for the game had sapped
strength as well as aggravated the
injuries. But Reinhart, trainer as
well as coach, spont all his waking
moments with hot towels, tape, and
other accessories, and by Saturday
night had his men ready to enter.
The spirit of the coach and hia
men has never been equaled. It
was fight, nothing more nor less,
that won the terrific battle against
| Idaho, and it was just pure fight
that carried the men through to the
i final winning five minutes in the
i Husky contest.
But the varsity basketball men
were not fighting alone. Back of
them was their steady, cool-headed
; coach, and back of them also were
three thousand loyal Oregon stu
