1 By HELEN SHANK Some six hundred high school stu dents from all parts of the state returned home Saturday and Sun day after the close of the annual High School Conference with their heads filled with numerous and varied ideas about university life and customs. And indeed, there is no better time when outsiders can get such varying impressions about the camjpus than during winter term, the shortest of the year, made all the shorter by the dozens of house dances and other activities. The last official event given for the high school delegates was a banquet on Saturday night at the Woman’s building, at which Presi dent and Mrs. Arnold Bennett Hall and members of the faculty were honored guests. Music was furnished by the Campa Shoppe orchestra, and Ed Chaney and Ted O’Hara gave additional entertainment in the form of songs and dancing. , Of interest to Oregon students are the announcements of the marriage of two popular couples who were formerly on the campus.

Coach Leslie 'is trying to work out a smoother combination than he had last Satur day against the Commerce high school quintet. Several new men will be tried out; this week in an effort to develop a likely tip-off man. The Stenog game brought out the fact that a taller man than Clark or Potts is necessary, so Van Nice and Ed wards, both six footers, will see plenty of work at the pivot position. The big road trip for the yearling basketeers comes off in two weeks when they journey to Portland and take on the Quakers in a return game. On the following nights, January 27 and 28, the frosli tangle with the Columbia university aggre gation. The ,’vening of January 29, the frosh w ill meet the Washing ton Babes in i he annual game. Spike Leslie says that it will be necessary to develop his men into a smooth working and close checking quintet before he can hope to return with a quartet of victories from the road trip. • The Franklin high school squad, with Kretzmeier, Keenan, and Scales, veterans from last year, stand a good chance to finish on the top of the heap in the Portland interscholastic scramble, according to Leslie, and are very apt to turn in a win over the frosh next Sat urday evening. The Oregon squad took a one sided tilt from the Commerce high school squad last Saturday by a 26 to 14 score. Kenneth Potts, alternating between center and forward for the frosh, showed up well.

After ward, at dinner, they entertained the conference with Californian songs, while coon-skinned eastern collegians looked disdainfully and boredly on. Groups and clubs, expressly for the discussion of student affairs exist in the eastern colleges, said Mr. Holaday. A,gora and Crossroads seem to bo the nearest approach to such groups in our own University.
