YEARLING BASKETEEERS
TROUNCE AGGIES 33-21
Freshman Rally After Slow
Start Piles up Baskets
The Oregon freshmen basketeers
convincingly trounced the Aggie
Rooks yesterday in the men’s gym
by a decisive count of 33 to 21.
After a slow start, the babes came
with a wild barrage of goals that
completely inundated the Beaver
youngters.
Baskets by Gibbons and Owen
gave the rooks an early lead. Two
more field goals by Ellis gave them
a 8 to 3 lead a few moments later.
At that point the Oregon yearlings
rallied and doggedly cut down the
O. A. C. lead. After 15 minutes of
riotous play, the frosh took the lead
when Ridings counted from under
the basket, and cinched it on a tally
by Emmons immediately after.
From that point on, the freshmen
had the game well in hand. The
Aggies resorted to all kinds of long
shots in the second canto with in
different success. The score at the
end of the first half was 21 to 10
Oregon.
Gordon Ridings grabbed high point
honors with 11 points, but had to
share the glory with his team mates,
as they t worked together in fine
Ishape. Milligan and, Bally, the
guard duo, functioned exceptionally
well. Ellis lead the rooks with 9
points from 4 baskets and 1 foul
throw.

True Stories of Faculty Kids
“Mary Catherine hasn’t shown
a bit of intelligence yet, she can’t
talk, play the piano or put on her
shoes,” J. Stanley Gray, assistant
professor of public speaking, was
giving a description of his little
daughter.
“Ten months oldt I should say
not.“ lie appeared almost taken
aback at the question. “She is one
year and about a week and a half
old. She celebrated her first birth
day the twenty-third of January.
She can walk. That is the first
intelligence she liajs shown, but she
is a very nice looking little girl.”
Mr. Gray smiled, “She looks like
her mother. She was named for
her two grandmothers; consequently,
her grandmother Berglund calls her
Mary, and her grandinother Gray
ealls her Catherine.
“Mary Catherine’s favorite toys
are Mah Jong blocks, which she
scatters all over the floor. She has
three dolls, but she likes the blocks
befit, I suppose this is because it
takes longer to pick them up.”
Mr. Gray said he thoroughly ex
pected his daughter to become a
college orator since she already has
diaphragm control of her vocal ap
paratus. He added that several of
the neighbors could verify this.
“She has blue eyes and brown
hair, rather dark, her only feature
that’s like her dad. She says ‘dad
dy’ and ‘hello,’ but I don’t think
she knows what she is saying,’
Professor Gray continued, smiling.
“Mary Catherine likes other lit
tle girls, and she isn't a bit bash
ful.” Professor Gray hesitated, then
said, ”1 think she is a very fine
little girl, but of course,” he smiled
broadly, “I may be a bit preju
diced.”
Margaret DeCou, daughter of
Professor and Mrs. E. E. DeCou, is
two years and seven months old,
yet she greets students on the cam
pus with the Oregon “hello.” And
studients gladly say hello to Miss
Margaret.
“She is happy, democratic, cor
dial and likes to regard everybody
as a friend,” Professor DeCou said.
Dean Straub and “The Pioneer”
the considers pergonal friends and
playfellows. Kean Straub has been
to since she “first made hit ac
quaintance. ” She says hello to
“The Pioneer.”
■“Margret speaks distinctly es
chewing baby talk, and there are
just a few words in her vocabulary
which ship finds difficult to pro
nounce. For mother and father the
always says ‘mudder’ and ‘fad
der'” Professor Decou said.
Miss Margaret has much imag
ination. Often, she is a character
in some story read to her, while
her another is another character.
Then she carries on a conversation
with this assumption.
She has large blue eyes, and is
already a careful observer.
Her parents are not pijessing her
mathematical talent. She considers
objects above two collectively, al
though she can readily count to
six.
It is possible she will be a student
of mathematics, Professor and
Mrs. DjeCou believe. She pores
over an old Oregon handbook
"studying her French lesson.”
Again, Margaret may turn out to
be a musician. She plays her toy
piano with depth of feeling while
her baby voice soars higher and
higher in "Jack and Jill” or “Bob
by Chapto” and the other familiar
nursery rhymes.
A bit of her philosophy of life
is revealed in the following conver
sation, Mrs. Decou says:
"Shall we say the Lord’s prayer,
‘ mudder’t”
"Our Father who art in Heav
e»-”
“What means art ‘ mudder't I
know. It is the boat Noah took his
animals in.”
“Hallowed bo be thy name—”
"What mjeans be, ‘mudder’i I
know. The bee got honey from the
the flowers at the ranch.”
"Whether philosopher or singer
later, she is at present a very hu
man little girl with sunshine and
showers, mostly sunshine—both a
part of her life,” Mrs. Decou says.
SUSAN CAMPBELL HALL
INSTALLS RADIO SET
The residents of Susan Campbell
Hall are the proud possessors of a
five-tube Stewart Warner radio set,
and they owe it all to their indus
trious and ingenious freshman
class.
The freshmen conceived: the idea
last term and over since liavo boon
busy getting up food sales, and
concocting various schemes for ex
tracting money from the upper class
girls. The radio will be installed
some time next week.

Th# appointment bureau now oc
cupies a room of its own in the
Edasatioa building. It was form

FRESHMEN CONTINUE
TO FLUNK ENGLISH A
Material sent out by the Univer
sity to high schools in the state has
failed, so far, to change the per
centage of English flunks.
Thirty-nine passed and 17 failed
the examination given to those who
entered this term.
Most of the papers were mediocre
although a few showed originality.
One student wrote a critical essay
on Eugene that was good; another
described a thrilling fire in the
operating room of a theatre in
which he was the operator. Several
gave vent to their homesick feel
ings.

0BERTEUFFER NAMED
ADVISOR FOR KNIGHTS
Del Oberteurffer, instructor in the
school of physical education, has
been elected faculty advisor for the
local chapter of the Intercollegiate
Knights.
Until now the Oregon Knights
have not had a faculty advisor and
it was felt advisable to have a per
manent official to check up on
plans and to assist in activities.
Some time ago the organization
assumed a debt by the purchase of
a number of Oregon Knight sweat
ers. All sweaters will be called in
and as soon as they are in the A.
8. U. O., will pay the bill.
