the first time it has ever been done
on this campus. Mr. Christopher
will also sing “Negro Spirituals” by

Mrs. Anna Landsbury Beck of the
school of music describes Mr. Chris
topher’s voice as “a resonant voice
of unusual range.”
Speakers First Visit
The speaker, Dr. Green, comes as
a member of the Staff Council of
the American National Bed Cross,
and the local officers of the Bed
Cross have been especially invited
to hear him, since it is his first
visit to Eugene. Dr. Green will
speak today also at a Eugene cham
ber of commerce luncheon.
Dr. Green’s work as minister,
author, educator, journalist, and lec
turer has given him the opportun
ity to travel widely and come in
contact with large groups of peo
ple. In 1910 he journeyed around
the world in the interest of inter
national peace. He has been an
international lecturer for the
American Peace society, and was a
delegate to the fourth American
Peace conference. He was also a
lecturer for the army V. M. C. A.
early in 1917.
Was Former Journalist
As asociate editor of Hampton’s:
magazine, New York, Dr. Green fol-!
lowed his journalistic bent for a
time. He lias produced numerous
works on subjects of national and
international interest, in the form
both of books and articles for per
iodicals.
Dr. Green has been decorated for
distinguished service by many for
eign governments, recently having
been elected a Chevalier of the
Legion of Honor of France, which t
in 1921 had awarded him the medal
of honor. He has also been decor
ated by the Polish and the Chinese
Bed Cross.
World wide Experience
During the last months of Ameri
ca ’s participation in the World war,
he directed the speakers’ bureau in
the IT. S. treasury department in
behalf of the Victory liberty loan,
and after the war was a member
of the European relief council.
Dr. Green’s address today will
deal with the work being done by
the American Bed Cross nationally
and locally. His association with
the Bed Cross during the war and
since makes it possible for him to
cover outstanding world events that
have transpired during the past six
years.
Freshman Biologist
Makes Futile Slimb
For Sea Gulls’ Eggs
Half an hour to go up, an hour
and a half to come down a steep
cliff of shale rock was the ex
perience of one of the freshman
biologists on the recent trip to
the marine gardens at Newport.
High up on the edge of the
cliff reposed a sea gull’s nenst.
Visions of glory, himself the
hero, came to the student’s mind.
He would capture this nest of
sea gull’s eggs. Carefully, inch
by inch,' he ascended the cliff.
Those watching became eager.
He had reached the top and now
he war coming down. They
waited until they became weary
and went off looking for speci
mens more immediately interest
ing. Only one friend remained
to encourage the valiant one’s
descent.
“Don’t hurry down, take your
time, I’ll eat your lunch for you,”
he called helpfully from time to
time, cautioning him not to break
the eggs. “Quit throwing rocks
at me,” he would cry as the
climber’s foot would slip on a
loose piece of shale.
Finally the bottom was reached,
the adventurer glowered at his
“friend.”
“Where’s the eggs?”
“O, hell, there wasn’t noth
ing in it.”
WOMEN TO ARRANGE
NEW SPORT PROGRAM
University of Oregon women vot
ed overwhelmingly in favor of the
new movement for “sports for
sports’ sake,” and the abolition of
doughnut activity, Monday ^ight
at a crowded mass meeting spon
sored by the Woman’s Athletic as
sociation.
The meeting authorized the ap
pointment of a council, composed
of one representative from each
house, to draft an entirely new
sport program for next year to
replace doughnut activity. As pro
vided in the motion, the council
will submit its proposals to the vote
of a second mass meeting to be
called in the near future.
General sentiment at the meeting
was in favor of grouping all candi
dates who turned out for a sport
at the beginning of the season, in
to special teams to play games on
a round-robin schedule. This would
be practice season for class activ
ity in that sport. The best talent
would be picked for class teams.
To encourage women to turn out
for sports, a general sport manager
for each house, was suggested. A
sub-manager, acting under the gen
eral manager of each house would
take care of the details of separate
sports. The opponents of dough
nut. sports urged that under pres
ent conditions, women did not even
know the fundamentals of the game
were forced by their houses to turn
out on house teams. This affected
the quality of sportsmanship on the
Oregon campus. It was pointed
out that the comparative few who
turned out for class teams was suf
ficient proof of this statement.
It was also maintained that the
long season of dougtnut activity
crowded class sport into an anti
climax status, and robbed it of its
legitimate interest.

INITIAL DEPOSIT ID
ON LOUNGE ROOM EUND
When the idea of a Student Un
I ion building was first brought be
fore the minds of the students of
the University one of the outstand
ing facts in favor of it was that
with its completion there would be,
qp the campus, a men’s building
as well as a Woman’s building.
Hardly had the first -compaign
been decided upon when Mrs. Irene
Gerlinger, who is a member of the
board of regents, and who was
largely responsible for the furnish
ing of Memorial hall in the Wo
man’s building, volunteered to fur
nish the lounge room for the men
in the Student Union building.

from her telling of her first deposit

The 19-man team which Bill Hay
ward will take north With him for
the dual meet with the University
of Washington on May 16 was prac
tically completed by the’ tryouts
and challenges run off yesterday
afternoon. The mentor plans to take
19 men but will enter only 16,—
the prescribed number, against the
Huskies. He will shift the men
around so that the most formidable
front will be presented to the north
ern tracksters.
In the high hurdle challenge race
yesterday afternoon, Francis Cleav
er won from Ralph Tuck in a fairly
fast race. Tom Holder, who has
been running the mile in the other
meets, showed that he could apply
his mile pace to the two mile,
which he stepped out and won last
evening. Rod Keating started with
his usual strong lead and led for
the biggest part of the distance.
Holder came up in the last lap and
with a fighting sprint passed Keat
ing. However, Rod pressed him all
the way to the tape. Barnes fin
ished third. The finish of the race
was surprisingly strong.
Wilbur Leads in 440
In the 440 challenge race Pen Wil
bur led for the entire distance, pil
ing up a yard lead on the first hun
dred stretch. Paul Ager made a
valiant effort to overtake him.
They fought the distance around
the track a yard apart. Ager closed
up on the last 100 yards but Wil-1
bur’s finish was too much, and
Ager came in a close second. Jeff
ries kept on the heels of the fight
ing leaders, and finished third.
The half mile was slow compared
to the work the half milers have
been doing before this. Six men
fought for the first pole, with Ste
phenson taking the lead for the
first lap with a long stride. He
i was followed closely by Mauney,
I who overtook him on the second
lap and pulled out from the rest
of the pack on the last turn. Mau
ney started his sprint on the last
turn with Gerke coming up farther
along and pressing him close. Swank
came up with a strong sprint and
the three,—Mauney, Gerke and
Swank,—broke the tape abreast.
No times were announced for any
j events.
Team jvxemoers warned
The team which will make the
trip:
Extra—100 and 220.
Westerman—100 and 220.
i Flannagan—100, 220, high jump
and broad jump.
Kinney—440 and relay.
Price:—440 and relay.
Tetz—mile.
Holder—two mile.
Kelsey—high hurdles, low hur
dles.
Cleaver-—high hurdles and low
hurdles.
j Eby—high jump.
! Rosenburg—broad jump, pole
vault, javelin.
Beatty—javelin,
i Cash—440 and relay.
Wilbur—440 and relay.
The half milers and the men who
will enter the discus and shot have
not been selected, but it is probable
that Bill will enter one or two men
in each event.
The Oregon team competes
against the strongest track team in
the northwest. The Huskies ran
through the Aggies in their first
dual meet by the score of 01 to 40.
The test of the Stanford meet and
the relays has shown the caliber of
the Oregon squad this season, and
it shows up mighty well in com
parison. The injuries and the men
who are not eligible have worked
a handicap, but the team is geared
for full speed ahead.

Sharks of Ancient ]
Days Claim Monroe
For Native Country
Did you ever Imagine that
sharks swim near Monroe? Well
they did, about 20,000 years ago.
It was discovered this way.
Don Zimmerman had been looking
over some sandstone rocks
brought into the laboratory for
analysis from an old quarry west
of Monroe. They seemed un
usually rich in fossils, and he
thought he saw a crepidula
(which, by the way, is a relative
of the snails, but much .more
;
like a clam in appearance.) A
cfepidula is a comparatively rare •
animal and dear to the heart of
the geologist, so ho remembered
it. Then he thought he saw a j
bit of shark’s tooth. He didn’t <
follow up his finds at the time, 1
but mentioned them to a profes- J
sor, who scouted the notion. t
Shark’s teeth are very rare, he f
was told, and crepidulas had nev
er happened in that region.
Zimmerman was pretty sure
that he was right, so he set to
work to prove it. After three
hours hard labor with the ham
mer he found his crepidula, and
a shark’s tooth as well. Later,
hammering disclosed another
shark’s tooth, another crepidula,
and a choice collection of various
clams and snails of the Eocene
period, which, to the initiated,
are very interesting.
The discoverer points out that
these crepidulas are the first to
be found nfcar here, and that,
though the discovery is by no
means epochal, yet it is one step
more in the progress of the sci
ence of geology.

CLASSES TRANSFERRED
TO RELIEVE CONGESTION
To 1 relieve the congestion in
Quartz hall, some of the courses
now using the room will move into
Condon hall, the new science build
ing. Professor Edwin T. Hodge,
professor of economic geology, will
move his office into the new build
ing, and the courses in petrography
and mineralogy will be held there
also.
The remaining students have need
of the extra space in which to
work. Several of the advanced
students and graduates have collec
tions with which they work. These
need space to spread out their
work on the tables without having
so manv other things in the way.
