Junior Week-end Plans Outlined By Directorate Lights to Be Installed Under Water for Canoe Fete Beports of the work being ac complished by the various commit tees were made by members of the Junior Week-end directorate at a meeting called by Bob McCabe, directorate chairman, last evening. Clarence Toole, who is in charge of the canoe fete, stated that Frank Boehr is chairman of the lights. All of the lights will be under the water and at the foot of the bleach ers. In addition, a system of spot lights will b« used to show the col ors of the floats to best advantage. All of the houses are asked to turn in the list of colors which they wish to have thrown upon their floats immediately. Each house may have any color desired, and the commit tee for lighting will regulate the spot lights. The two large spotlights which will be used have been obtained from Portland. The mayor has consented to close the street in back of the bleachers beginning with Friday noon and continuing until Saturday noon of next week. The transportation committee will have charge of the moving of the bleachers from Hayward field to the race on Friday morning. All traffic on Eleventh street, near the bleachers, will be closed during the time; and H. M. Fisher, superin tendent of the grounds, has offered to co-operate with the police force to help check traffic. Arthur Gale, chairman of the decorations committee for the Prom, again stressed the necessity for men who have been appointed on the construction committee to re port for duty. Work begins at the Armory at 9:15 this morning. “The more men,” he said, “who come down to work, the quicker the construction work will be com pleted. It is important that they come, for following the construc tion work, it will be necessary to paint the arches.” Each junior man who can possibly come to work is asked to bring a hammer and saw with him, and assist.

His technique is so sure and accurate that it is a delight. There is a sincerity—a spontaneity and vouthfulness about his playing that is refreshing in these days of studied gallery effects. The pro gram will afford ample scope for his many sided pianistic Jiinwiers. “Although we are glad to wel come Mr. David Campbell as the brother of our President Campbell, yet David Campbell’s pianistic abil ity carries its own conviction.” VARSITY NETMEN TO PLAY HUSKIES Oregon Team Is Same That Defeated Aggies & Reed In First Meets of Season BLEACHERS ARE ERECTED Huskies Have Strong Team: First Local Meet Will Be Held Today at 2 o’clock The University courts this after noon at two o ’clock will be the scene of a tennis meet between the University of Oregon netmen and the Univrsity of Washington team.

Five Men on Team The University of Washington team is composed of five men: Captain Bob Hesketh, Mel Dranga, Dick Dubois, Joe Livengood and Sam Skidmore. Hesketh, captain, was a member of the double team that went east last year. At this meet Scott, a member of last year’s team, won the National Intercol legiate singles championship.

After the Willamette meet here next Wednesday and the return me^t with the Aggies here next Friday, Coach Rudolph Ernst will pick t a three-man team to repre sent the University at the Pacific Coast meet held in Seattle on May 29 and 20.

C. baseball tilt this afternoon at Corvallis, will be one of the feature games of this season from all indications. The Aggie nine has met every team rep resented in the northwest confer ence, except Oregon, and has emerged victorious in each of these contests. The varsity is beginning to strike a mid-season stride, and will give the Beavers a real battle Coach Reinhart’s choice for the one to take up the twirling duties today will probably fall on either Skip per Brooks, Fred Harrison or Ray Williams, with perhaps Brooks or Harrison starting on the mound. The batting averages, recently compiled, show that the Lemon Yellow bludgeon wielders are high ly dangerous. Howard Hobson has been hitting at the extremely lively clip of .523, while Rex Adolph is well over the .400 mark. Cook, Knudson and Bliss have earned their share of hits, with averages around the .300 mark or over. With these men facing the Aggie twirlers. Oregon should be able to break through with some timely swats that may aid in winning today’s battle. This game will be the last played by the varsity before they start on the northern trip which begins Tuesday of next week.

A. C. Courses Alleged to Overlap Those Offered By Departments Here A brief, prepared by the Univer sity of Oregon, charging that the Oregon Agricultural college since 1920 has been gradually encroach ing upon the field of education al lotted to the University, will be con sidered by the state board of high er curricula, organized to handle such problems, when that body meets, Monday, May 18, according to stories published in Portland pa pers. The board is composed of Joseph Hedges of Oregon City, Bab bi Jonah B. Wise, of Portland; Dr. C. J. Smith of Portland, A. G. Beals of Tillamook, and Charles Brandt of Boseburg. Before 1909 and since then there has been a constant question as to what should be taught at O. A. C. and what at U. of O. In 1923 the board made an order assigning to the University the department of fine arts, architecture, music econ omies, higher commerce, education and the graduate school. The rul ing was not inelastic. Por instance, music was not forbidden at the O. A. C. except as a special study leading to a degree. Engineering Given O. A. C. Agriculture and allied subjects, along with electrical, chemical, me chanical and civil engineering, were given to the agricultural college. The tendency has been to give to Eugene the professional courses and arts, while the vocational schools, home economics, engineer ing and agriculture went to Corval lis. But it is understood that, the University regents claim that since 1920 the college has been “moving in” on their fields by beginning to teach advanced courses in profes sional subjects. The college, it ia alleged, did this by stating that the courses offered simply rounded out the education of students in the es tablished schools. Later, it is said, the University complains, a ddhn was named at O. A. C. of the school of basic arts and sciences, whose duties are much the same as those of the dean of arts at the Univer sity. College Has Duplications It is charged that the college now offers degree courses in econo mics, sociology and political sci ence. The schools of commerce and journalism at the college also are duplications of those at the Univer sity and offer competition to them, according to the reported allega tions. In short, the college is accused of attempting to take over the work of the University in addition to its own. It is said that O. A. C. is prepar ing a brief in answer to the com plaints filed by the University, which will be presented to the board. There is a possibility that if the.aboard does not receive this report by Monday the meeting may be postponed. “THE CREATION” BY 170 VOICES PLEASES ON FIRST APPEARANCE By E. H. The biggest eon cert ever given ( in Eugene was presented last night at the Methodist church when the i Oratorio society of Eugene gave ; “The Creation,” an oratorio writ- 1 ten by Joseph Haydn. The chorus ; included 170 voices beside Jane 1 Burns Albert, soprano, Prudence E. 1 Clark, contralto; William Pilcher, 1 tenor; and Gage Christopher, bass. 1 The organist was Miss Frances Pierce who proved a good aeconi- I panist, also did some splendid < interpreting. i The solo parts taken by Mrs. Al- i bert, Mr. Christopher and Mr. Pilch- i er were good. The soprano part 1 was lovely with soft yet clear tones, 1 I n <3 delightful expression. Mr. '’hristopher has an excellent bass •oice and showed rich quality. The enor part also was rich in quality ind with a wide range. The chorus cork was wonderful. The quality md control of the choruses were mteworthy and the volume was un imited, being probably enough to ill an auditorium several times as urge as the one used. Beside the beauty of the music, he chorus was very pleasing to ee with the bank of ferns in front nd the singers in white gowns, vith the dark costumes of the men n the hack. “The Creation” will ie given again tonight at the dethodist church.
