UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, EUGENE, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 15, 1925
NUMBER 12
HALE TO URGE
ADHERENCE TO
WORLD COURT
Dean of Law is Considered

The Subject of Address
Question To Come Before
Senate On December 17;

Cout,r W. G. Hale, dean of the
school of law will address the as
sembly today on problems of inter
national relationships and the part
America has been playing and can
play to establish world peace.
Dean Hale is considered one of
the outstanding authorities on the
subject and his address today is
of timely interest due to the ques
tion of America’s adherence to the
World Court which will come be
fore the Senate on December 17.
The international body maltes legal
decisions and solves problems that
can be adjusted without recourse
to war and America’s entrance
would greatly effect its interna
tional relations.

Dean Hale is chairman of the
committee in charge of the local
movement of the Eugene chamber
of commerce to aid in bringing
about favorable action by the sen
ate in December. Local civic or
ganizations and social clubs have
passed resolutions in favor of
World Peace which will bew for
warded to the senate from Oregon.
Resolutions will not be distributed
at the assembly, Dean Hale explain
ed today but the subject is being
discussed because of its timely im
portance, and the part Americans
adherence to the World Court will
play in the future.
Dean John Straub will introduce
the speaker and preside at the as
semly. Rev. Bruce J. Giffen, stu
dent pastor will deliver the invo
cation. A specila musical feature
will be furnished under the direc
tion of John Star Evans, assist
ant dean of the school of musie.
SENIORS WILL WEAR
DECORATED STETSONS
Among the things which culmin
ated at the last senior meeting was
the adoption of large, flat-topped
Stetsons with hat-bands ornament
ed with the Oregon seal, the word
“Oregon” and the figures “26” as
the latest fad of the senior class.
The idea is not entirely original,
however, as it was first adopted by
the senior class of 1910.
The committee appointed for the
investigation of prices and*supply
consists of: Rae Mosier, Carl Dahl,
and Laird McKenna.
A definite decision as to the
character of the class dance which
will be held tomorrow night was
also reached. An Apache affair
was decided upon and all members
are expected to come in appropri
ate costumes.
Syncopated “Jinx”
Amid Wierd Lights
To Be Junior Motif
Colorfully fantastic decorations
—brilliant balloons and weird
lights—savoring of gay Carni
vals, will furnish a proper set
ting for the “Junior Jazz Jinx”
at the College Side Inn Friday
night.
A unique novelty feature will
be one of the biggest attractions
of the evening. The exact na
ture of this event will remain a
secret until the night of the
dance, according to Camille Bur
ton, feature chairman.
Syncopation will be supplied
by a snappy six-piece orchestra.
Color-splashed decorations will [be
rivalled by the gaudy rainment of
the revellers.
Dates have been outlawed by
the class.
Patrons and patronesses for the
dance %are: Dean and Mrs. Eric
W. Allen; Dean .Virginia Judy
Esterly, and Mr. and Mrs. Walter
Svnder.

NEW ART INSTRUCTOR
TO AID* DEPARTMENT
Miss Vera Hensen, a recent grad
uate of the University of Califor
ni southern branch, will arrive
on the campus tomorrow to take
charge of several classes in the art
and architectural departments.
Because of greatly increased en
rollment in these departments it
has been necessary to divide imany
of the classes and Miss Hansen will
take charge of some in architec
tural design, life, book and poster,
design and applied design.
Miss Hansen, who has the degree
of bachelor of education, comes to
the University with recommenda
tions which characterize her as
being particularly capable and pro
ficient in her work.
STUNTS WILL BE ATTRACTION
OF RIDING CLASSES THIS YEAR
A sawdust ring. Horses, with girls
in the saddle, doing stunts. It re
calls Polly of the Circus. In real
ity. it is the equestrian .class con
ducted, at the edge of Hayward
field, by Abe Bangs, campus riding
instructor.
“We are going to feature more
fancy' riding this year,” said Mr.
Bangs yesterday. He was riding
Pedro, and three young women were
exercising Clo, Bonnie, and Nig.
The four horses walked abreast to
the end of the ring, turned, and
trotted back, turned again, and
galloped the length of the ring. It
was a pretty sight to see them torn
the corners squarely as school chil
dren drilling.
The riders then tried what is
called “throwing one’s self with the
horse.” They'pulled the reins so
the horses swayed to one side and
then leaned as far over on that
side as they dared. This is prac
ticed as a precaution against fall
ing when the horse is galloping
around a corner. The next exer
cise consisted in taking a handker
skief frost a man while riding by
him at in gallop. The riders said
it appeared easier than it was, but
after a few trials they all did it.
A board was placed upon two
boxes about two feet from the
ground and the riders attempted
making the horses jump over the
board. Nig always turned just as
he reached it, thus avoiding it by
swinging around the box. It
might not have been all Nig’s
fault, for his rider becoming a bit
nervous as he neared the jump may
have consciously or unconsciously
guided him around it. Of course,
there is no proof for that; it is
merely a possibility. Bonnie’s rider
took a neat fall, but landed on her
feet. The tumble caused much
laughter after it was ascertained
she was not even frightened. With
the remark, “I must have been
awfully high-hattish for they say
pride always comes before a fall,”
she was trying again.
Clo’s rider said later that she felt
pretty stiff, but was going out to
try again. The girls are learning
rapidly, the instructor report*.
YJ. Cl DRIVE
GETS RESULTS
Sigma Alpha Epsilon Leads
Houses With Twenty Six
Dollar, Pledges To Date
Workers In Campaign
Wokrers In Campaign
At Luncheon Tomorrow
While it is yet too early to pre
dict the success of the Y. M. C. A.
drive with any degree of accuracy,”
said Bob Hunt last night, “the fifty
men on the committee are working
hard and the few reports I have
received show that they are getting
Jesuits. S. A. E. with 26 one-dol
lar pledges leads the fraternities.
The fact that the present drive is
the only which has the sanction of
the executive council should keep
University men from pledging who
fear they will be asked to contri
bute to future drives.”
Sigma Alpha Epsilon was lead
ing all the men’s fraternities on
the campus last night with a total
of 26 dollars pledged to the Y.
M. C. A. drive. According to re
ports from Bob Hunt, general chair
man of the drive, the men are con
tributing readily.
Reports Ready Friday
Definite reports from all the
houses will not be available before
Friday noon at the committee lun
cheon at the lint. At that time,
team captains will report the result
of soliciting iron-fraternity men on
the campus. From all indications,
the project is being supported gen
erally better than formerly.
Speakers gave their talks Tues
day evening and all day Wednes
day at the meals in various men’s
houses and the response has been
good from, a majority although rep
resentatives have not made accur
ate reports. Definite results will
be known either tonight or tomor
row, of the work in the houses.
Independent men who have not
been approached will be in all like
lihood, asked to contribute one dol
lar or as much as they feel they
can offord duirng the bourse of to
day, by the men on the teams.
Townspeople Feed Workers
Eugene women are providing
again for the lunlcheon to be held
at twelve o’clock Friday for ‘the
drive workers. Hunt expressed ap
preciation for this evidence of
townspeople backing the drive, at
the luncheon Tuesday.
Membership cards are being
given out with all pledges of one
dollar. These entitle the holder to
the privileges of Y. M. C. A. or
ganizations in every city in the
nation. These cards, according to
the Y leaders, will enable students
to obtain rooms for sixty-five cents
in Portland for the Calif ornia-Ore
gon football game to which so
many Oregon men and women are
planning to go.
The main pleas used by speakers
.at the fraternity houses are that
the Y. M. C. A. is of benefit to all
pniversity men from a social
standpoint; that it procures noted
speakers for the campus every
year among whom are Fred B.
Smith, apd that the employment bu
reau of the Y secured $39,000
worth of jobs for campus men last
year.
Bart Kendall, president of the
Y. M. C. A. and in charge of fra
ternity house solicitation, is con
fined to the informary, having been
taken suddenly ill yesterday.

tion will assist about the rooms
and the freshman girls will be
asked to serve.
His Majesty, Satan
To Reign Saturday
At Scribes’ Party
Journalism Jamboree
To Be Exotic
George Turnbull, professor of
journalism, bids fair to lose his
reputation as an “inheritor of the
earth,” Saturday night when, as
His Majesty, The Devil, he will
reign infernally at the Journalism
Jamboree—exotic, masked ball su
preme.
Sueh, at least, is the advance in
formation derived from their |gal
lery of portraits now hanging in
the shack. Wayne Leland, artist
journalist, already has pictured the
lurid, red costume, horned head
dress and all.
And , such, The Emerald believes,
will give an idea to new students
of what is being worn in costumes
at Journalism Jamborees.
As an additional hint, it is rum
ored that Ralph Casey, associate
journalism professor, will darken
his sandy hair, and “vaselino” it
before hopping into his imported
Spanish costume which would make
the famous Rodolf envious.
Pretzels, prizes, doughnuts, cider
and what have you will be on the
bill of fare, it has been announced.

FACULTY MEMBERS
ADDRESS INSTITUTES
New Instruction Method Is
Given To Teachers
Members of the University are
without the services of five mem
bers of the faculty who are lectur
ing at county teachers ’ institutes,
where educators 'gather yearly to
learn the most successful and pro
gressive methods of instruction.
Alfred Powers, director of social
welfare and visual instruction, who
spoke at the Grant county institute
in Canyon City September 23, will
lecture today and tomorrow in
Burns, at the Harney county in
stitute. F. L. Stetson, professor
of education, addressed instructors
at the institute held at Baker Oc
tober eighth and ninth. Moselle
Hair, secretary of extension teach
ing, is talking to the teachers of
Gillian county who are meeting at
Condon today. Tomorrow she will
lecture at the Wheeler county in
stitute in Fossil. Dean H. D. Shel
don of the school of education will
talk to the Jackson county teachers
at Jacksonville. Dr. H. P. Rainey,
associate professor of education,
will address the members of the
Marion county institute in Salem.
Institutes were abolished by leg
islation in 1923, but were re-estab
lished this year because of the need
felt for a means by which teachers
could compare methods of instruc
tion and hear lecturers on modern
educational problems. Previous to
abolishment, institutes were held
for three days, but two are felt
to be sufficient now.
ADAMS IN JANTZEN FIRM
Irwin Adams, graduate of the I
class of ’24, is now assistant to the ]
president of the Jantzen Knitting
pompanv, according to word re
ceived recently from him and Mrs.
Adams by the School of Business
Administration.
Three Women Pit
Ambitions Against
Those of 67 Men
Neither the overwhelming ma
jority ot‘ (57 men enrolled in the ,
the law school nor the long arm
of the laws has caused any timi
dity or desire to resort to some ]
more feminine pursuit on the
part of the lone three women
also. enrolled in the upper divi
sion. Dean Hale says that on
the average there is no partic
ular difference in the quality of
work done by the men and by
the women. “Sometimes indi
vidual women stand out at the
head of the classes,” he said.
Those who have departed from
the general group of women in
choosing their career are: Fred
erick Travis, Eugene, second year
law; Margaret Woodson, second
year; Jimmie Preuit, Eugene,
first year.
UNIVERSITY DEPOT
Students Warned Against
Motes In Laundry
An average of 3000 pieces of
mail, including both letters and>
packages is handled every day by I
the University postoffice. This j
estimate given' by Carl Joy, of the :
department, covers mail collected i
from and delivered to the campus j
buildings and the three halls of i
residence.
Mail is collected and taken 't.o j
the downtown postoffico three
times daily, once in the morning
at 7:00 oclock, and twice in the
afternoon, at one and five. Mail
is brought to the campus postoffico
twice a day.
The depot is not a United StateB
postoffico and cannot register
mail, but it can insure letters.
There is a place to mail letters in
the front office, and during closed
hours, letters can be put in a slot
on the back porch, of the building.
It is reported at the U. of O.
postoffice that students are again
receiving notices from the Eugene
postoffico warning them not to
place notes in laundry or other
packages. Anyone placing any kind
of writing in a second class mail
package is liable to fine or impris
onment according to federal law.
Packages or suitcases must not be
sealed or locked to prevent inspec
tion. Any sealed package goes as
first class mail. The story goes that
a student last spring locked his
suitcase for mailing and was
charged about seven dollars for its
transportation.
SIGMA XI NAMES WANTED
Dr. W. P. Boynton, of the chem
istry department, asks that all of
the newer members'of the Oregon
faculty, who belong to ISigma Xi,
honorary science research fratern
ity, turn in their names to him at
once. Dr. Boynton is preparing the
mailing list for the year, and is
very anxious to get tho addresses
of all those in the states who are
affiliated with Sigma Xi.
VARSITY ELEVEN
AND FROSH HAVE
STIFFWORKOUT
Coaches Want Team Work;
Threaten To Advance All
Substitutes From Bench
Yearling Lineup Promising;
Competition For Places
Keen; Men Working Hard
By Dick Godfrey
Burning with an undying enthu
siasm to show up the varsity, the
frosh football squad three full
teams in all, lineup algainst the
team in a practice session yester
day which lasted two hours.
The# varsity fought harder than
on any other night this week, and
the outcome was the crossing of
the babes’ line several times. How
ever, the yearling men showed up
the first string on several plays
and spilled it for a loss.
The varsity was not hold for
long, and time after time broke
through the, yearling front wall and
then toppled the secondary defense,
making big gains before being
thrown. The backfield had to
make its own holes through the
line on guard and tackle plunges
as the frosh seemed to sense the
plays and were on hand to smear
them. The first squad front wall
showed poor form at times.
Baz Lays Down Law
Realizing this weakness of form
and proper sychronizatiojn the
coaches are drilling the men to
start together. Several times the
game was halted by the lino coach,
“Baz” Williams, while ho lay down
the law. “You’re here to get a
man, so got your own man and
let the other fellow get his man.
If you do this and do it when the
proper time .comes, alright. If you
don’t you will have to make room
for someone else,” he roared.
Words of this type are being
used by virtually all the coaches
and when a man doesn’t show what
he is expected to a new man from
the subs moves up and takes a try.
With this system of workouts there
is a possibliity that several new
faces will appear in tho Pacific
contest Saturday and the fray
against California’s [golden bears
in Portland tho following week.
Hew Men Get Ohance
Even lettermen have been taken
out of the lineup to give other can
didates opportunity to show what
they can do. Due to the keen com
petition the shifting of lettermen
out and into the lineup is becoming
a regular thing. The coaches have
set their minds on .putting the
eleven best men on the field.
The coaches are working for
teamwork, more fight, more driv
ing power, and, most of all, more
speed. The men are being to “hit
the line and hit it hard” and the
coaches camp in the backfield of
the offensive and call out the men
who show a sign of being lax.
Hard wokoutsr such as have been
held the past few nights are what
makes a team and old time specta

RUSSIAN STUDENT HAS PRAISES
FOR OREGON INSTRUCTION STAFF
“American university instruction
is much better than that of Russian
universities,” said Ivan Budaeff,
’29, former medical student of Mos
cow University, Russia, and now
a junior in pre-medics at the Uni
versity of Oregon, in an interview
last night.
“It is an entirely different kind
of instruction,” the Russian student
continued. “ILere it is better be
cause the student is controlled
every day not only by himself, but
also by his instructors. In Moscow
the student is left more to himself.”!
Only the final examinations are
carefully supervised by Russian in
structors and no check whatever is
made on student attendance at any
other time. The result is that ex
aminations are much more difficult
than those of this University be
cause personal instruction is not
given, and no one receives needed
instruction from professors. The
lecture system is used exclusively,
and the smallest classes in the Uni
versity of Moscow number at least
one hundred and fifty.
Budaeff also spent several years
in China before coming’ to this
country two years ago. He studied
medicine three years at Moscow. He
received University credit of 96
hours when he enrollod here for the
first tim'e this fall. He is particu
larly satisfied with the greater con
venience of Oregon in the labora
tory and library facilities. Tho
library of tho University of Mos
cow, he said, is, however, very
creditable.
Besides his three years as a stu
dent, Mr. Budaeff lias had much
practical experience as an assistant
physician in the Russian army. He
wns thus engaged three years dur
ing the war, in which time he was
wounded. He was also head of the
dispensary of the Orthodox Mission
in Pekin, China, for two years.
He has studied bis chosen profes
sion privately during the seven
year interim since he was at the
University of Moscow. This is the
oldest and one of the largest Rus
sian universities, of which there
were only eleven in 1918. The Mos
