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. Miss Mar
garet Stahl, ’26, became the bride
of Edward D. Smith, Jr., in Port
land last Monday. Their engage
ment was announced when the two
were in school last year. Mrs. Smith
is a member of Orcliesis, honorary
dancing society, and of Alpha Chi
Omega. Mr. Smith is affiliated with
Delta Tau Delta, of which he was
president last term. While on the
campus he was connected with the
upper news staff of the Emerald,
and is now doing police reporting
for the Morning Oregonian in Port
land where the two will make their
home.
Prom Seattle, Washington, comes
the news of the marriage of Miss
Katherine Slade to Kenneth Bailey,
on December 27. Both vrere former
students here, and after her gradua
tion Mrs. Bailey was connected for
some time with the appointment
bureau of the school of education.
She is a member of Kappa Kappa
Gamma. Mr. Bailey was affiliated
vTith Beta Theta Pi and was presi
dent of the house last year. He rvas
an Oregon football man.
The first big formal affair of this
season was the buffet supper and
dance given at the Eugene hotel
last Saturday night in honor of the
members of Alpha Chi Omega by
Mr. E. Claude Mills of New York
City. Mr. Mills is the uncle of
Miss Louise Storla, Alpha Chi
Omega sophomore, and is national
president of the Musie Publishers’
Protective association.
The guests were seated at -small
tables, which had beautiful center
pieces of roses and other cut flow
ers. Corsages were brought in for
each of the girls and cigars and
cigarettes passed for the men.
Special guests for the occasion
were Mrs. Storla, Mrs. Anna C.
Hart and the host.
Preceding the dance Mr. Mills
was entertained at a dinner party
at the chapter house. His niece,
Miss Louise Storla, has accompanied
him to San Erancisco for a short
visit.
Hr. and Mrs. Helbert Stannard
were hosts last Wednesday night
for dinner party at their home and
for the perfcimance of “Blossom
Time” afterward. Their guests were
( apt: and Mrs. John J. McEwan,
Hr. and Mrs. Orville Waller and

English department
Friendly hall men were hosts at
an enjoyable informal dance at their
home on Saturday evening. A very
simple but effective scheme of dec

the dancing. This is the first of
several similar affairs which the
men have planned for this term.

Frosli Prepare
For Franklin
Tilt Saturday
Yearlings Weak at Pivot;
Road Trip Includes
Two Games
Coach “Spike” Leslie is driving
his yearling hoopsters hard this
week in preparation for the coming
game with the Franklin basketeers
Saturday, January 22. 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.

Thought Maturity
Held Greater in
Eastern Student
Far West Delegate Marked
For Robust Simplicity
At Conference v
Tiioro is an apparent contrast be
tween the East and the far West, in
sophistication ' and maturity of
thought, according to Joe Holaday,
who attended t lie student confer
ence held at Milwaukee in Decem
ber.
“It is apparent from all that T
could gather,” he said, “that the
easterners have arrived at that ma
turity of thought that is so often
thought to be lacking in American
student life.”
Most of the leaders of the confer
ence were from the far East, with
only a few from the middle West,
•said Mr. Holaday.
“On the other hand, a certain
direct simplicity and robustness of
thought was apparent in those few I
westerners who took part in discus
sion and conversation.” This was
illustrated in the case of the dele
gates from California, who started
the meeting with three rousing
cheers for their own state. 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.
