Preparations Made
For 600 Delegates
Dance and Glee Club
To Entertain
SOCIAL and instructive phases of
the seventh annual high school
conference to be held here Jandary
14 and 15, will be combined, ac
cording to plans now being actively
shaped by the directorate headed
by Ward Cook.
The directorate met yesterday and
committee heads reported satisfac
tory progress. The preparatory
school delegates will probably be
received at the opening of the con
ference on Friday morning at a
general student assembly, th§ pro
gram being such as to attract a full
quota of university students as well
as the preppers.
TTigti Schools Get Letters
Letters were mailed to the high
schools last week, and replies stat
ing the number and names of delfe
gates coming are already beginning
to pour into the office of Hugh
Biggs, president of the Associated
Students. Delegates who will come
include high school student body of
ficers, representatives of the Girl's
League, and editors and managers of
high school publications. About 600
delegates are expected, and arrange
ments have been made to house and
entertain that number without
throwing the entire burden on the
fraternities and sororities.
Fraternities to House
Houses wishing to entertain cer
tain high school students may des
ignate their preferences at the of
fice of Hugh Biggs, and they will
be granted their choices, except
that no more than 10 delegates will
be lodged at any one house. As soon
as answers to the directorate’s let
ters are received, another letter is
mailed to each delegates notifying
him where he will be entertained.
This makes it imperative that or
ganizations leave a list of their
preferences at the student offices
immediately.
President Attends Stanford
Edmund H. Jones, formerly of
Washington high school, who last
year was elected president of the
Oregon high school student body of-j
ficers association, 'has written to
Dean H. Walker, dean of men, in-;
quiring about the date of the con
ference and indicating that lie would
be present. Although he is now a
freshman at Stanford University,
he plans to make the trip to preside
over the preppers. Mr. Jones is the
first president of the association for
many years who has failed to come
to the University of Oregon to con
tinue his education. I
Dance Will Be Feature
An all college dance in the new
basketball pavilion is planned for
the entertainment of the delegates
on Friday night of the conference,
directly following College Night,
which this year will probably take
the form of an entertainment fur
nished by a glee club, similar to
the traveling Glee Club of the Uni
versity of California. The program
will be live and interesting, and
will be a tremendous improvement
over the old stunt program of form
er College Nights,” it is claimed.
Two luncheons and a banquet will
be given during the two-day con
ference, and these will remove a
large measure of the worry and ex
pense from entertaining at the frat
ernities and sororities.
Football
(Continued from page one)
The gross receipts at Corvallis will
probably total $26,000.
A vast increase can be noted in ;
the Oregon games played in Port-'
land. In 1923 the Stanford game
drew about 7,000; in 1924 the Wash- \
ington State fracas yielded 14,000;'
in 1925 California attracted 17,000;
and this year’s contest against
Washington crowded together ap
proximately 25,000 persons.
Profits Missing
To date the complete season’s re- ]
ceipts have not been totaled. Re-1
ceipts for the home games came to !
$18,000 and the Portland game net-j
ted $42,000 bringing a total of j
$60,000. Though no settlement has'
been made as yet for games played I
on other campus gridirons, it will
total about $25,000, bringing the net
receipts for all contests to about
$75,000. After the expenses are de
ducted the profits for 1926 will fall
considerably shorter than that of
1925.
The tie game with Pacific Univer-!
sity the week before the Washing-1
ton game in Portland undoubtedly
cut down the Multnomah stadium at-!
tendance. The contest at Pullman |
did not draw well and this year’s'
Homecoming attendance in Eugone
fell away short of the 1925 showing.^

H. C. Howe Instructs
More Students Than
Any Other Professor
Instructor’s reports and working
sheets in the office of Mrs. Clara
Fitch, secretary of the administra
tive offices, show that the honor of
teaching the most students in the
University goes to H. C. Howe, pro
fessor of English. The total enroll
ment for his classes is 351.
The nearest competitor and win
ner of second honors in the number
of students instructed this term is
C. V. Boyer, head of the department
of English, whose students total an
even 300. N. B. Zane, assistant pro
fessor of architecture and allied
arts, is a close third with 298, and
A. K. Moore, head of the depart
ment of zoology, follows with 272.
These figures do not take account
of Dr. Wilmoth Osborne’s personal
hygene classes, which number about
400 students. Neither are physical
education classes included in the
j survey, as they are taught, by sev
I eral assistants in the department.
Largest single class enrollment
honors go to Dr. Moore, with 227
enrolled in his elementary zoology
class. Others with large classes are
Andrew Fish, assistant professor of
history, with 176, C. V. Boyer, also
with 176, Donald Barnes, professor
of history, who has 150 in one class,
and H. C. Howe, who has 135 pupils
in one section.
Four Veterans on
Team Bolster Up
High Hoop Hopes
Basketball prospects at Univer
sity high school look good this year
with thirty-five candidates turning
out for practice and Frank Rinehart
in the coaching position. “Swede”
Westergren, varsity guard, and Roy
Okerberg, varsity center, have also
been on hand to aid in the coaching.
Four lettermen, Stevens, Powers,
Frey, and Libby, are back in suits,
and as they are juniors, this year
promises to* furnish the background
for a good team next year also.
Other good prospects this year are
Smith of Florence, Robertson,
George and Charles Rickabaugh, and
Townsend of Northampton, Massa
chusetts. The second string men of
last year are also available.
Although the complete schedule
for this year has not yet Deen ar
ranged, the usual games with Spring
field, Cottage Grove, and Eugene
high school have been signed, and
Coach Rinehart is trying for a game
with Salem. A barnstorming trip
which will take the team into Coos
county to play Coquille, Marshfield,
and North Bend, is being planned
for the Christmas holidays.
