VOLLEYBALL PLAY-OFF • SET FOR WEDNESDAY Sophomores And Juniors To Battle for Title The result of the victory over the freshman second team last "Wednes day tied the sophomores and jun iors for the volleyball champion ship. The play-off is set for De cember 9, at 5:10 in the Woman’s building. Because of the experience and skill of the players of both teams, this promises to be one of the most intense contests of the volleyball season. Each has lost one game, the juniors to the sophomores and the sophomores to the freshmen. The sophomores are regarded as more steady and dependable than The juniors. Nellie Johns because of her spec tacular and expert serve, is consid ered one of the strongest sopho more players. Her balls are very swift, and drop in a sharp curve as soon as they have skimmed the net, resembling the difficult balls .serv ed by a tennis player. Harriet Os born has a smashing two-handed return and is dexterous in picking up balls close to the floor. Eleanor Marvin’s hard stroke makes her a dangerous opponent. Geneva Zim mer and Ruth Scott, have excellent team work; they cover their ground well and give splendid support to their partners. Juanita Dietz, also plays with good team work. Of the junior team, Nellie Best and Margaret Pepoon are outstand ing players. Nellie Best has a swift two-handed return which sends the ball low over the net, and directly to the floor. Margaret Pepoon has a swift serve which has been known to intimidate even experienced players. Katherine Schnell plays a dependable steady game. Eleanor Eargher and Rhona Williams play smashing but rather uneven games.

LAW EXAMS LENGTHY Even though the fall term exam inations in the law school are thTee hours long, and last from Monday to Friday, the students ha^re their compensation in the fact that they are at liberty to intersperse the period with . frequent intervals, when the men usually gather out side for a change of atmosphere and a few puffs of a cigarette. The examinations are conducted entire ly on the honor system. The pro- \ fessor writes the questions on the board and departs. The students then go to any part of the building , they wish to write the examination. DEAN WALKER TO MAKE TRIP Dean H. Walker, dean of men, will leave for Seattle, Wednesday. The trip will be made for the pur pose of transacting University bus iness. PINK POODLE LIKES CO-EDS; PLEDGES KAPPA DELTA PHI “Billy” Shows Preference For Journalism School; Meets Owners After Classes Caesar, the Kappa Sig wire-hair ed terrier, you will recall, is a wom an-hater. He’s a gruff old soul for everybody but the men. But Billy, the pink poodle of Kappa Delta Phi, is different, in disposition, as well as in color. Billy’s pinkness, ot course, sets him apart from other dogs, even from other poodles; and besides, he has no special objection to the women. Originally this particular poodle was white; and the story of how he was dyed early in the term to suit the artistic ideas of his new owners, has already been told. His wool was dyed red, after some discussion of decorating him in the University colors for Homecoming. As he is now, a blue ribbon about his neck will just about fit him for the Fourth of July. So wdhen Home coming came, the red which had faded to pink, was allowed to re main. Billie has been at the Kappa Delta Phi house since a week after the fall term opened. It is be lieved he either was dropped from a car going through Eugeno, or that his owners have moved away, for he never shows any inclination to leave his present home, where he is happy and amiable. The journalism school seems to be Billie’s favorite and he is often seen sitting outside a classroom waiting for one of his owners. A woman was the owner of Billie, it is thought, as he likes so much to be fondled. He enjoys perform ing tricks, such as walking on his hind legs, or jumping through hoops. He loves to bathe and will stand in water up to his ears until his bath is finished. Otherwise he’d still be red, instead of a fading pink. Billie’s greatest joy consists in riding on the running board of an automobile. He is particular about what he eats, liking some candies, particularly chocolates, with which he is coaxed to do his stunts. GLASS EXPERIMENTS Tissue Outside Body Kept Alive Ten Years An experiment to determine the difference in growth of tissue out side the body which is grown in an ordinary culture medium of chick embryo juice and the same kind of tissue grown in a medium to which has been added thyroxin, an active agent of the thyroid gland, is being made by May Bor quist, and Hope Plymate, both grad uate students in the zoology depart ment. This problem is a continuation of work started last year on the factors influencing growth and dif ferentiation. An improvement on last year’s techinque has been made by using a germ-proof box with a glass top and arm holes in the sides for sterile sleeves. This device has done away with the necessity of sterilizing everything in the room in which the work is done. The tissue used in the experi ment is from four-day old s chick embryos. It is placed on slides in a culture medium where close observance of development is made by the students. Some growth has already been detected, Dr. H. B. Yocom of the biology department stated. Most of the time has been spent in forming a technique by which the tissue can be transplant ed from an embryo to a slide with out bringing it in contact with for eign substances. The work is being done in a spe cial room in the research shack next to the infirmary. Researches made by eastern sci entists show that tissue outside the body of a chick has been kept alive for a period of ten years, whereas the average life of a chicken is only two years. Matches Will Be Held In Portland With Clubs The outlook for a successful sea son is promising, says Perry Davis, boxing coaeh. Several veterans have returned to the campus to form a nucleus, and sufficient new material is working out, to form a well balanced team. The veterans are Maury Collings, Guy Ferry, and Irv Pelz. Collings is a middleweight, Pelz, a welter weight, 'and .Ferry boxes at /140 pounds. These men are boxing in their old form and, according to Davis, should win their bouts in the coming matches. Of the new men, Jack Sharp has caught Coach Davis ’ eye. He is a shifty, two-handed boxer and has boxed Harry Greb in a gym bout. Tex Newby and Larry Bead, wel terweights, have also attracted con siderable attention. Bouts are held each day in the boxing classes. The men bang away and fast exchanges are com mon. Men who are showing well in the classes are Finsley, Chap man, Nelson, and Espirito, a Fili pino. The latter should make the team boxing as a featherweight. Oregon does not have intercolle giate bouts but matches are held in Portland with the Multnomah, Elks, and Masonic Clubs’ boxers. Coach Davis is always willing to put his mittmen on for College smokers and for exhibitions in sur rounding towns.
