Planetary Bodies
Used in Decoration
For Frosh Glee
“The Garden of the Moon,”
was the idea carried out by the
class of ’28 at their Frosh Glee
last Saturday night in. the Wo
man’s building, although the ef
fect was not distinctly brought
out.
The orchestra was located on
the left side of the floor, and
the stage at the end of the hall
was devoted to huge, grotesque
figures of creatures probably in
habitating the lunar regions.
On either side of the stage were
brightly lighted moons, one green,
evidently carrying out the cheese
myth, and the other white with
the silhoutte of two young people
in amorous embrace, depicting a
honeymoon scene.
The walls were hung with blue
curtains and from the ceiling
hung stars, moons and other plan
etary bodies.
The punch was delicious and
the programs, drawn by Hal
Westphal, were hand-painted and
showed considerable work. A
large crowd attended the dance.

Jonah B. Wise, rabbi of the Jew
ish synagogue, Temple of Beth

higher curricula of the state of
Oregon.

DR. MIRIAM VAN WATERS TELLS
OF JUVENILE COURT’S PURPOSE
By Glenn F. Burch
Few people really understand the
function of a juvenile court. The
idea is apt to prevail that it is a
replica of the ordinary police court
constructed on a smaller scale, or
that it is an institution which in
some mysterious manner converts
wayward boys and girls into model
children.
Dr. Miriam Van Waters, referee
of the juvenile court in Los An
geles and a nationally recognized
authority on juvenile delinquency,
brushed aside both popular concep
tions in the course of an interview
yesterday, in which she character
ized the court as aiming at a “bet
ter understanding of human na
ture.” The institution, she averred,
is not a court whose sole, function
is to mete out punishment to wrong
doers, nor is it primarily a clinic
for the treatment of diseased young
minds. It is rather a court which
aims at educating those who come
within its jurisdiction away from
delinquency, and endeavors to mar
shal the social forces of the com
munity to assist in the enterprise.
In Dr. Van Waters’ belief, the
future work of the juvenile court
will probably be carried on in two
separate and distinct fields: rural
and urban. Of the two fieldB of
endeavor, the need of the rural dis
tricts is the greatest, especially in
the west, where little has been done
to aid the delinquent child. “The
monotonous lack of social resources
in the country tends to drive the
children to the city prematurely;
in many cases long before they

AGGIES TAKE TITLE
BY ONE-POEfT LEAD
David Again Slays
Goliath; Hoop Game
Is Scene of Fray
Goliath — enormous, gusty
throated Goliath—sat back after
shaking the heavens with an
enormous “Hail Beavers.”
David answered with a defiant
“Oskie” from the galleries.
The giant roared forth in spon
taneous glee when getting the
best of the fray; groaned mourn
ful murmurs of consternation
and dismay as he received an
unguarded blow, or muttered dire
epithets of remonstrance when
the judge of battle ruled against
him.
The signal to cease combat
sounded.
David shouted in victorious
glee.
Goliath lay prone, speechless.
Thus was the picture presented
at Corvallis Saturday night as
Yell King Martin’s small band
of faithful Oregonians, stub
bornly withstood the mighty on
slaught of Aggie vociferations.

27-26, In Hardest
Hoop Battle of Year
Half Ends in 1 3 to 13 Tie; Stubborn Fight Put
Up By Both Quintets; Gowans High
Scorer With 10 Points
By George H. Godfrey
Salem, Ore., March 9.—A lone figure, tired almost to ex
haustion after 40 minutes of gruelling battle stood up to shoot
a foul tonight, with the score lacking one point of being tied,
and missed. The miss was not the result of an erratic shot
brought about by nervousness, but merely a trick of fate which
caused the ball to bounce a fraction of an inch the wrong way*

EGO,N MATMEN LOSE
MEET TO W.S.G. TEAM
Although Oregon lost its last in
torcollegiate wrestling meet of the
year to Washington State wrestlers
Saturday afternoon, 35 to 45, the
fans were treated te a fast exhibi
tion of grappling.
The matches were fast and closely
contested with the result in doubt
until the final bout between Woods
of Oregon and Dunbar, W. S. C., in
which the visitor won by a fall
after receiving draws in the first
two bouts. Woods put up a good
fight but was downed just two sec
onds before the seven minute
period was up. The summary:
125 pound class—Hendrie, W. S.
C., defeated Sumption, Oregon, de
cision and fall in 2:16.

er, was out of the meet because of
a cauliflower ear that was injured
some time ago.
game ended tonight with the
Aggies victors by a 27 to 26
score.
It was by far the hardest fought
contest ever engaged in by either
an Oregon or an O. A. C. team. The
playing of both teams was nearly
on a par, with Oregon having a
shade bettor most of the time.
The first half, almost as fiercely
fought as the second, ended in a
tie, 13 to 13.
Oregon led most of the second
period, but the Aggies crept ahead
near the end, two converted tech
nical fouls on Oregon giving them
the lead. Just as the gun ended
the play, Baker fouled Westergren,
who narrowly missed. Gowans was
high point man of the game with
10, four of them from two brilliant
long field baskets. Hidings, O. 'A.
C., was held to three field goals and
two fouls. The lineup and sum
