35 Men Turn Out Nightly
To Prepare for Season
OK'ERBURG MAY RETURN
First Training Consists Of
Fundamental Work
Training with but one thing as
an incentive—to be good enough to
make the first team and represent
Oregon, 35 men started this week
to take part in nightly workouts
in preparation for the coming bas
ketball season.
Following intensive training, of
the kind which has been started,
a team is sent on tho floor for the
first game, usually untried under
the fire of an intercollegiate con
test.
Tho result of this training per
iod, then shows itself in tho way
the players handle themselves and
the way in which tlioy work with
each other.
With this prospective first show
ing in viqw, Coach Reinhart has al
most ended his moleskin work for
the season and is turning out with
tho hoop men every chance he has.
Actual work this week consists
of tho men dribbling the ball the
length of the court and then pass
ing to another who dribbles back.
Some passing and pivoting is be
ing undergone by the players also.
Word of tho return of tho ling
ering Okerberg all-coast choice for
center last year, has not boon re
ceived as yet, it is stated, but
hopes are still held that his return
can bo announced.
The other fivo lettermen, togeth
er with 30 otlior candidates are do
ing tho sumo typo of work and are
rapidly getting over Me stiff and
sore-muscle stage of tho athlete
who turns out for tho first few
prnctico sessions.

rangements for the space they wish

there may be some difference in

VOLLEYBALL GAME WON
BY SOPHOMORE TEAM
When tlu< whistle blow at the end
of the second half of the volley
ball game the score for the tnssel
between the sophomore second team
and junior third team stood tied.
The teams played an additional
two minutes in which time the vic
tory went to the sophomores, the
final score standing .10 to 28. The
results of the other games played
last night are as follows: senior
first team, 30, a gainst freshman
first, 25; junior first, 25, against
freshman first, 10; freshman fourth,
85, against sophomore fourth, 15.
This is the first time that the
senior first team has appeared on
the floor, and by its swift balls,
and good volleying has the appear
ance of being able to give experi
enced players a stiff fight. It eas
ily defeated the freshman team,
but this does not indicate that it
will fare as well when it meets the
sophomore first team on November
23. This sophomore team, composed
of the crack players of the fresh
man team of last year, which won
the volleyball championship then,
will put up a good fight to keep
the championship to themselves.
GRAD RECALLS DAYS WHEN
STUDENTS WATCHED PRACTICE
Rain and Cold Didn’t Stop Rooters From Turning Out Says
Mrs. Margaret Goodall, ’04
The time when all loyal students
turned out to watch fooball prac
tices was described recently by Mrs.
Margaret Bannard Goodall, ’04, a
member of the alumni council.
“Then all loyal students, on cold
and rainy days in October and No
vember, bundled up in warm coats
and went out to watch the prac
tices. It was considered a sort of
duty—an evidence of loyalty to
their alma mater.”
The speaker shivered reminis
cently. “The cold would come up
under the old bleachers and freeze
us gradually from the feet up.
Brr! But we would go home after
ward to a warm dinner and trot
out again.” The girls and men
who were not on the team would
come out to practices about five
days in every school week,” Mrs.
Goodall said. “It was a great place
to congregate and to visit.”
In those days the team of the
Salem club was more feared then
either Multnomah Club or the Ag
gies. Some of the largest *and
strongest men in the state played
on the Salem team, professionals
and graduates, many of them all
heavy men. Then also ethics were
not so rigid.. There was a good
bit of slugging and closeup work.
As Mrs. Goodall said of the root
ers, “Wo used to stand on the side
lines and foam at the mouth at the
way those old Imiisors piled up our
men.”
Then it was a tradition with the
football heroes to wear long hair,
“chrysanthemum locks,” according
to the terminology current at that
time. These flowing locks were
often dipped in the mud of the
field and shaken out again during
the heat of the game.
Then the town as well turned out
en masse for the games. “And the
team! ” laughed Mrs. Goodall, as
a sudden memory recurred to her.
“No one but the very old grads
will recognize that phrase. They
will, never fear! Sam Friendly, for
whom Friendly Hall is named, was
on the board of regents. He had
daughters in college, he was very
hospitable and very popular and
used always to drive to the games.
His carriage was drawn by an odd,
yellow and white spotted animal
which he invariably described as
‘ the team! ’ ”
“Of course, then also we turned
out for Homecoming game in good
clothes and chrysanthemums,” the
speaker concluded, “but at that
time there seemed to bo more
townspeople at the games. The
busines men, in particular, were
more conspicuous. Not that they
support the games any less heartily,
I believe, but now they are com
pletely submerged by the great
number of students.”
Mrs. Goodall, who is a resident
of Eugene, is head of the English
and journalism courses in the Uni
versity high school.
FIFTEEN BOOKS ARE CHOSEN
BY DR. BOWEN AS FAVORITES
“Dr. Bowen,” the reporter asked;
the head of the Romance languages
department of the University. “Sup
pose you had been cast away on a
desert island, with no hope of res
cue for many years. Your ship is
on a reef and you have timo to get
a few books—,”
“Ah, yes, I see,” interrupted Dr.
Bowen,—“and you wish mo to pick
out a number of my favorite
books?
“Denr, me,” he said, seating him
self in a chair, “how difficult that
is to decide. How many did you
say I am to choose?”
“Twelve or 15 is all the dory
will hold,” responded tho reporter.
‘.‘Well, I should choose first, ‘The
Cloister and tho Hearth,’ by Charles
Road,” ho said meditatively.
“Why would you make this
choice?” broke in the reporter.
“Because,” ho said enthusiasti
cally, “it gives the whole spirit of
tho Renaissance, nnd tho whole
background of Europe.
“And next, lot mo see. There are
so many, many fine books, how am
I ever to choose? I should take
ono of Daniel Deioo’s novels, per
haps his ‘History of the Plague.’
It is told in such a vivid manner
and in such a delightful vein.”
“I should also read one of the
Greek plays, ‘Oedipus Rex,’ by
Sophocles, because of its philosoph
ical interpretation.
“Then, I should read one of
George Elliot’s novels, perhaps ‘Ro
moln’ which givos us an idea of the
wonderful city of Florence, tho lov
liest city in all of Europe,” ho ex
claimed fervently.
“Oh, but I am leaving out tho
very finest of all, ‘Wuthering
Heights,’ by Emily Bronte. It is
a remarkable book becauso of its
vigorous revelation of the depth of
the human soul, not to be equaled
in the English language.
“I love the Bible, the Old Test
ament because it has so many,
many soul-stirring episodes, and the
New Testament becauso of its spir
itual quality.”
“Have you ever read ‘Aueassinl
et Nicolette?” he asked. “It is
the lovliest love story ever writ
ten. No one knows who wrote it.
“I should choose ‘The Return of
the Native,’ by Thomas Hardy. I
love its atmosphere. And D. H.
Lawrence’s ‘Sons and Lovers’ por
trays a mother’s love as something
that shows you how lovely it really
is. ”
Dr. Bowen would choose the ‘Vi
car of Wakefieldfi’ because “It is
the funniest thing in tho English
languago,” and Wordsworth’s poems
for their mysticism, and Shelly’s
for their philosophy and style. He
would ehoose Balzac’s ‘Search for
the Absolute.’
“It portrays the beauty and the
tragedy of the human soul as few
books do,” he said.
Next he would choose Sherwood
Anderson’s “Short Stories” because
they represent the best use of Eng
lish In America except of James
Cabell.
“I like Milton’s ‘minor poems’
bettor than his ‘Paradise Lost.’ ”
“Le Cid” by Corneille would be
tho next choice because it paints
the superman and the superwoman
with so much power that one wants
to be like them, Dr. Bowen said.
“I am afraid we will have to en
large the hold of the ship to con
tain all of those books,” suggest
ed the reporter.
“Ah, yes,” he said, “how many
do we have now?—sixteen? But I
am very much afraid that I am
leaving out some of tho best things.
‘The Peasants’ by the contempor
ary, Reymont, is a tremendous
thing. It gives a whole slice out
of the life of a whole village, and
its sufferings and its joys. The
‘Growth of the Soil’ by Knut Ham
sun, brings out the elements of the
principles according to which we
must all live,” he said.
“Why wojild I choose these books?
Because I would be so happy in
reading them,” he concluded, with
a regretful smile, because so many
of the wonderful books would have
to remain in the abandoned ship.

nice game for the losers but the
fust pace proved too much and in
the final minutes their defense
cracked, and with it their chances
of victory. PnMert looked the
cleverest and shiftiest man on tho
floor in this game.
Sigma Chi had to much power in
attack and snowed tho Theta Chi
quintet in under an avalanche of
baskets. “Red” Slausen and West

red headed flash, through his floor
work, and Westphal by sensational
shooting. Westphal gathered 12 of
his teams 22 points.
The Theta Chi quintet looked
good even in defeat, and staged a
thrilling battle. McGowan and
Cadwell played a good brand of
ball, each being credited with 3
points.

LIVING ORGANIZATIONS
HAVE FIRE INSPECTION
Last year it was decided that
there should be an annual fire in
spection of all fraternity and soror
ity houses in order that all possi
ble precaution should be taken in
preventing loss of lives or property.
Accordingly, three inspectors from
the State Fire Marshal’s office are
on the campus this week. These
men will inspect each house for
possible fire risks and advise the
management of the best ways to
eliminate them.
These inspectors send one report
of their findings to Dean Walker,
one to the house,, and one to the
State Fire Marshall. Dean Walker
asks that houses be careful in ob
serving their advice, and in this
way carry the University one step
further in the prevention of fires.
