APRIL RADIO LECTURE PROGRAM COMPLETED Oregon-Stanford Debate to Be Held March 25 Extension division radio lectures have been booked through the month of April, according to an an nouncement made by Alfred Powers, who is in charge of the radio activities. The bookings in clude everything from a radio de UitkC tu pupuint ICl/kUl tension division’s radio lecture ser vice will continue until school lets out in June. There are possibilities that some of the members of the summer school faculty will be called on to radio-cast occasional lectures. With the exception of the radio debate all the lectures will be broadcast on Friday evenings at 8 o’clock. On Friday, March 20, Professor Fergus Reddie, of the department of drama and speech arts will give a reading. His subject has not been announced. “His reading on Huckleberry Finn, given last year to th# radio world, proved so popu lar that the extension division finds it well worth while to repeat an other of Professor Reddie’s lec tures,” said Powers. The radio debate between the University of Oregon and Stanford university will be held on Wednes day, March 25. The northern team will assemble at KGW, while the southern team will assemble ,at KLX. “Mathematics at Work and at Play,” is the title of Professor E. E. DeCou’s lecture to be broadcast March 27. On April 3, Professor Tanner, of the chemistry depart ment, will radio-cast a lecture on the microscope. The subjects for the following three programs have not been an nounced: April 10, Professor A. R. Sweetser of the botany department; April 17, Professor Hugh E. Rosson, debate coach; April 24, Dean Eric W. Allen, of the school of journal ism. The lecture for Friday, March 13, is still pending. tennisHtsTilled BY CAPACITY CROWDS Ono week of spring has boon enough to fill the now tennis courts on Emerald street with players practically every day. In the words of the caretaker, the place is “swamped.” The courts are open from 6 a. m. to 6:110 p. m. every day except Sunday, when they aro open from 2:15 to 6:50. Tho largest pnrt of the rush comes in tho af ternoon between the hours of 3 and 6. Yesterday morning, however, four girls made their appearance at 6 o’clock; this is the earliest that the courts have been in use this year. During the winter the courts were practically in disuse on account of the continued rainy weather. Tho nets were taken down at night and only a few were put up during the more moderate days. Last Sun dny was a record breaker, how ever, with 124 players registered between the hours of 2 and 6. Monday, for some unknown reason, is the poorest day of the week for good attendance on the courts. In spite of this fact, there was a regis tration of 36 last Monday, followed by 75 on Tuesday. Such an increase in attendance necessitates strict adherence to the time regulations. Hereafter, play ers will be allowed to play until the hour in the forenoons and until a quarter after in the afternoons just as University classes are regulated. Next term will see still further increase, since tennis will be one of the sports in spring athletics. A few varsity players are busy on the courts now getting into shape for the coming season. FUNERAL OF MRS. O. M. HALE WILL BE HELD SATURDAY Dean William G. Hale and his family will leave Eugene today for Hillsboro where they wil attend the funeral of Mr. Hale’s mother, Mrs. G. N. Hale, who died here Thurs day morning. The services will be held Saturday forenoon. Dean Hale’s parents were pioneer resi dents of Hillsboro.

I The new First Congregational | church on Thirteenth avenue and j Ferry street, which will be dedi cated next Sunday evening, owes its striking beauty and charm to W. R. B. Willcox, professor of architecture on the campus, who drew the plans, designed the church and personally supervised the en | tire process of its construction. A i number of architecture students ! have been associated with him in : this work. Toward the end of an afternoon, the glory of the sunset, caught in the cathedral glass of the windows, spreads mellowness and age over gray walls, tiled roof, and copper eaves. The shade of an occasional tree contributes to this elusive at mosphere of ancient grandeur. It achieves that personification of the spirit of worship rarely found ex cept in the cathedrals of the Old World. In the main chapel and adjoin ing the Condon memorial to be dedi cated to Thomas Condon, at one time head of the University geology department, is found a suggestion of the Italian gothic in the treat ment of the stenciled wooden beams overhead. The stenciling is re markable for its varying scheme of related tones in which no stencil repeats itself in the exquisite col oring of any other stencil in the room. A carved skirting on the wall be hind the choir loft repeats elu sively the blended coloring of the stenciled wood. The keynote of simplicity and grace is extended to the simply carved panels on the pulpit and the Greek crosses carved upon the ends of the pews. Carved posts, barring the tall amber win dows, and tarnished copper lamps hanging from the beams by slender irons, add a medieval note to the surroundings. Light descends up on the pews in an ever shifting play of colors and moods. None of this exquisite composi tion just happened so. The glaring newness of the copper lights was dimmed and mellowed by special process after they arrived. The carved posts in the windows were especially designed to achieve the unusual lighting effect Professoi Willcox has brought about. The windows of cathedral glass were imported from London to fulfill their particular part in the gene ral plan. The plaster used in these two rooms received special treat ment in its preparation and appli cation in order to produce the rug ged appearance desired. The church exhibits the use of great care and forethought in the planning of even the most trivial detail. Concealed ; lighting / will be found in the walls of the choir loft, individual coils extend into each pew; a cabinet is built in an odd corner of the wall for the mu sic of the choir. The structure is built around three sides of an open court at the rear. This is wired for the lan terns of garden fetes and out-door social functions. It will also serve as an outdoor playground for young er members of the church. On the ground floor, special quarters are provided for the activities of the women of the church, the girls, the boys, and kindergarten divisions. A kitchenette is built within con venient reach of all these rooms. The church office opening directly upon the side street is also on this floor. Upstairs in this parish house division of the mother church, is a community room which, when divided into compartments by ac cordian doors will be used for the Sunday school headquarters. Ad joining this is the most modern of large well-furnished kitchens re sembling in its efficiency and de tail, the cuisine of a modern hotel. An office in the front is reserved for the Sunday school secretary. Over the choir loft and pipe or gan is a two-room apartment for the caretaker of the church. long shot, to be followed by score from floor by Baker. Score, Ore gon 4, O.

The game was the closest ever seen here, and the smallest score of year. Oregon now has two games to win in order to represent the north ern division of the Pacific Coast conference in the title games with California. The battle Saturday night will be even more terrific than the one lost to the O. A. C. quintet last night, 15 to 12. Both the Oregon and Aggie teams fought yesterday afternoon as they never fought before. The game started fast, with both teams Work ing hard. The outstanding feature was the close checking by both sides—so close that seldom did a player get a chance to cast for the basket unhampered by one or more men. Skiller passing rushes, speedy floor-length dribbles, came to naught under the stonewall defense thrown out by both quintets. Oregon Takes Lead Oregon took the lead, with two fouls converted by Gowans, and a field goal by Okerberg, but before the half was over, the Aggies had forged ahead. The first half ended nine to seven for the visitors. The second half was Oregon’s for a time, Westergren’s field goal tying the score at 11 each. O. A. C. Tan their .total up to 15, while Oregon was able to score but a single ad ditional point, a foul converted by Westergren. Teamwork Remarkable Ridings, Aggie forward, was high point man of the game with three field baskets, while Westergren was next with two field goals and a con verted foul. No man was outstand ing on the Oregon team, for every qne played close, hard ball. The teamwork of both fives was re markable, and by far the best ever seen on a Eugene court.
