GRKPPLERS OUT FOR MOT WORK Doughnut League Officials Schedule Championship Game for January 22 Seven Campus Entrants Enrolled; Eleventh is Dead Line for Other Teams The intramural wrestling champ ionship for this year will be decided January 22. This announcement was made yes terday afternoon at the men’s phy sical education department by offi cials in charge of doughnut ath letics. * Prior to the championship, matches in the various weights, tryouts and preliminary bouts will be held. Cam pus organizations' are asked to make known the intention, if any is held, as to whether they desire to enter this sport. In case an 'organiza tion does want to compete for the campus championship it should fill the entry blank, which was recently mailed. . Seven Teams Out So far seven teams have an nounced the fact that the members will be on hand to create some ex citement in the various weights. January 11 is given as the deadline for other entrants. The usual ruling which covers all doughnut activities will be in effect during this campaign. This in cludes an article which explains freshmen competitors. The rule cov ering this states that freshmen who are turning out for the squad are eligible for entrance in doughnut but varsity men are out. . Six Matches Required All men are required to have at least six preliminary workouts prior to entering a scheduled match, according to Earl Widmer, wrest ling coach and referee for all bouts. An organization is under no obli gation to enter a full seven man team but may enter as few as de sired. However, more than two en trants in one weight is prohibited. The seven weights listed on the schedule include 118 pounds; 128 pounds; 138 pounds; 148 pounds; 161 pounds; 178 and unlimited. Restrictions Outlined Wrestlers will be compelled to make the weight in their division without margin, it is stated, and one man will not be allowed to en ter more than one class.

Winners in events on this date will fare forth and battle op ponents until a final match is held on the 22 between the two out standing men in all classes. The winner of this final will be herald ed as the University of Oregon campus champion wrestler in his weight. SEVENTEEN SENIORS BEGIN U. H. S.

Wilbur has re ceived a letter from the editors of the Theatre Arts Monthly published in New York, informing her that they are sending a collection of fifty photographs tracing the ten dencies of modern stagecraft which they have brought together. This stage design exhibtion will be held on the stage in Guild Hall, Jan uary 11 to 25, inclusive, under the auspices of the play prbducing class. The collection includes examples of the work of the leading contem porary designers, such as Gordon Craig, Robert Edmond Jones, and Emil Pirchan, and gives in visual form a record of what has been happening in the theatre in Amer ica and abroad during the last 20 years. It fs with Gordon Graig and Adolph Appia that the modern stage broke away from the tradi tions of footlights as the only light ing, and of wood wings and badly painted drops as the only settings. The collection begins with the work of these artists in design and many other photographs and sketches con tinue the process. From the con tinent there are designs by such men as Hana Strohbach and Ernst Stern. There are also many photo graphs of various performances di rected by Max Reinhardt, giving proof of the technical advance in stagecraft. The work of American designers and producers has been a saner sort of experimentation though it also has felt the trend toward simp [ licity. Robert Edmond Jones, one of the chief American designers, whose “Drawings for the Theatre” has recently been published, is re presented by many photographs. Herman Rosse, Woodman Thompson, George Urban and many other ar tists working in the American thea tre, as well as such producers as those who are connected with the Neighborhood Playhouse and the Provincetown Playhouse. David Belasco and Arthur Hopkins are also represented. DEAN ALLEN IN PORTLAND Dean Eric W. Allen of the school of journalism left for Portland yes terday to attend to business con cerning the News Conference pro gram to be held here February 19 to 22. He will return to the cam pus the latter part of the week. RECORD TRIP MADE Dr. William P. Boynton, head of the physics, department, and Mrs. Boynton traveled 970 miles on little more than 12 or 14 hours’ notice to visit their daughter in Whittier, California, for the holidays. Students Make Earliest Mountain Climb Under Hazardous Conditions (Continued from page one) slippery that it was necessary to cut steps with a small ice tool for almost the entire distance. By noon when they had covered about half the distance to the summit they were forced to abandon their try for the time being because of slid ing rocks and ice Which had been loosened by the sun and dislodged by a high wind. A further attempt at the peak on Thursday was Utterly useless so the climbers returned to their im provised dugout at the foot of the mountain and spent the night. At dawn Friday, January 1, the party started again. For a considerable distance they followed the steps cut the previous day but Were forced to abandon them at the place where the slide of the previous day had oceured. They picked out a route along the base of a cliff, then went straight up a steep slope for about 200 feet, chopping steps ev ery two feet. The slope of the in cline at this point was nearly 65 degrees. Because of the extreme cold, a coat of ice covered everything and the party found it necessary to cut steps the entire distance with the exception of a short way on Ren frew glacier. When the three had reached a point within a 1,000 feet of the summit, Henry Cramer, whfo was crossing a treacherous piece of ice lost his footing and started sliding down the steep slope. As he boun ced about rolling end over end, he clawed frantically with his hands and dug into the ground with a small shovel which he had, to stop the mad slide that was carrying hjm straight to the edge lof a pre cipice with a 300-foot drop. Finally just at the edge of the cliff he grabbed a rock and stopped. He was close enough to look over the edge. This harrowing predicament can only be imagined. ■Without further mishap the party reached the summit just as the sun was setting and found themselves in the desperate straits previously described. “During our climb up the moun tain,” said Wagner, “we had ample opportunity to observe the country lying beneath us and it is certainly a wonderful sight. A thick blan ket of snow covered the valleys and mountain meadows. The possibili ties for a playground flor winter sports are almost limitless in this region.” The cave, in which the three men found refuge, fortunately was free from snow; but, sheltered as it was the temperature was about ten de grees below zero, according to a thermometer which was given to the party by Dr. Edwin T. Hodge, professor of economic geology on the campus, and one of the best authorities on the Sisters region in the country.

Some very good photographs were obtained by the party on the climb, before Cramer’s fall which ruined the camera, also furnished by Dr. Hodge. When the three men returned from the cave to the dugout camp Saturday morning there was a no ticeable drop in the barometer, and a snow storm soon came up. With the aid of a map part of the scien tific apparatus supplied by Dr. Hodge, the young men were able to make their way safely out to Frog camp where they spent the night. The failuro of tho party to make the climb the first day left them a. day late in their schedule, and a rescue party composed of Guy Ferry, Robert Green, and Alton Gabriel, three fraternity brothers, were on their way to hunt for the men when they found tho climbers at Frog camp. The three men on the rescue parky provfculsly held the early-climb record for the peak, having scaled it in March, two years ago. The students were completely out fitted for tho trip with Eskimo parkas, sleeping-ba^gs, and snow shoes. A quantity of concentrated foods, chocolate, dried fruits, and pemmican, made up the diet of the aien during tho trip. The snow shoes saved the party about three days time on the trip out to the highway from the base of the mountain, for a deep covering of freshly fallen snow made traveling very difficult. One of the most interesting things seen on the trip were the ice mush rooms, a peculiar0 formation of ice and snow in the shape of a mush room. A cap of ice is held up by a thin column, the ice all around it having been cut away by the sun’s rays. These formations were dangerous to climbing as they were constantly breaking off and sliding down the mountain side. “Dr. Hodge’s map saved us from getting lost several times on our trip to Frog camp in the blinding snow storm,” said Bossatti. “The map is accurate and proved very useful to me.” When asked about his fall, Cram er was reticent about expressing himself, but said that he was frightened for a good while after wards. The three men arrived on the campus Monday noon in time for registration looking a bit tired but otherwise none the worse for the trip. Cramer’s hands were dressed and fortunately free from infection. All three of the men are members of Sigma Pi Tau. L. C.
