This year, instead of holding regu- 1
lar tryouts to determine the mem- I
bership of t-lie University orehestra , •
Rex Underwood, director, has adopt- I I
ed a new policy. Each person who 1
shows a reasonable knowledge of
his instrument is permitted to en

•‘Such u flexible system, I be- i
lieve, will result in a larger person- i

people with real ability lack coufi- j
deuce to make a good initial impres

played for a time show marked im
provement after they have an op
portunity to regain their skill.”

Oregon Installs
Managerial Idea
From California
Junior Assistant Managers
To Rotate on Duties,
Says German
California showed Oregon that
she had a good football team last
Saturday. She also showed Frank
German, Oregon’s football manager,
that the California managerial sys
tem had enough good points to war
rant Oregon to give it a trial.
Under the California system there
is a senior manager and under him
are five junior assistants. Each
junior assistant has five sopho
more helpers. The work in man
aging a football season is divided
into five general parts: trailing
quarters, rare of field, visiting
teams, field practice, and general
manager. There are numerous sub
divisions of these five duties. The
beauty of this system is that the
five junior managers’ rotate each
Week and thereby each becomes ac
quainted with the duties of every
other manager.
German thinks that this system is
a safeguard, for it will enable any
junior manager to fill his place as
manager at any time without the
customary breaking in of a new
man. Several of the junior mana
gers told of the smooth functioning
of the California managers at the
game in Portland, and all voted to
install this system at Oregon.
At present uregon lias seven
junior managers. Of this seven, two
were selected as assistant managers
of minor sports. These two 'Were
Boydon and Hubbs. The remaining
five, Abner, Miller, Montgomery,
Shmle and Shepherd, were assigned
to the five duties of the new system.
German urged these ^nen to select
their five sophomore helpers. From
these 25 helpers chosen, the five
junior managers will be picked for
next year. There will be a meeting
of the managers each Monday after
noon to discuss forthcoming duties
and sophomore helpers will be rated I
according to their efficiency at each i
meeting. This last idea 'will put the
selection of the five junior man- 1
agers for next year on a basis of
both ability and trustworthiness.
Burg f I
(Continued from-page one)
■classes is very high against foreign '
intervention of any kind at pres
ent. They prefer to do their own
developing and keep the income
from their industries at home.
Mi’. Burg’s highest ambition since
boyhood was to be a sea captain, ;
so he attended a nautical school. I
However lie found that something
was lacking and decided to enter
college in order to obtain a firmer
foundation along classical lines. At
present he is carry 2i! hours besides
doing a good bit of writing. Burg
has done special features for the
Oregonian for several years, inter
viewing persons and writing adven
ture tales from all parts of the
world.
A thumbnail sketch of the
voyages Burg lias made follows:
Trip by canoe from Yellowstone
National Bark to the Gulf of Mexi
co 4200 miles long over the longest ,
stretch of water in the world.
Voyage around the world during
war on transport at the age of 15.
First man down Columbia River
by canoe (1924).
First man down the entire length
of Snake River (1925).
Two voyages to Australia and the
South Seas.
Two voynges to Europe.
Voyage from Skagway, Alaska, to
mouth of Fraser River and down
the Columbia to its mouth (192(1).
When Mr. Burg finished giving
this list he said “That's all”, as
though being ashamed that he had
not been in more corners of the
globe.
University Research
Proves Oregon Ideal
For Silk Manufacture
The bureau of business research
under the school of business admin
istration lias just completed a brief
investigation of the possibilities of
developing the silk industry in Ore
gon. This research is to be the first*
of a series of investigations into
natural resources to be conducted
by the bureau for the benefit of
the business men in Oregon, and fits •
in with President Hall’s program
of eo-dperation between the people
of Oregon and the University.
The Portland Chamber of Com
merce asked that the silk industry
be studied. According tu Mr.
Lomax, a member of the" research ,
bureau, Oregon was found fb be ai
ideal place for silk manufacturing
because of its climate, purity of
water, abundance of labor, aud
pleasant working conditions. The
industry is to be more thoroughly
investigated later.
Cum pus Mail Doubles
During Three Years
The amount of mail passing
through the University depot grows
each year. Three years ago the de
partment handled liUOO pieces jof ,
mail a day, but that figure has beea
| increased to 5000 now. One room
used to suffice for the care of the
campus depot, in the days when H.
M. Fisher, who was superintendent
of the postoffiee, walked down
town to get fhe campus -marl of two
letters, or and them sent tip later
by street car, but now another room
has been added. From Quartz halt,
the depot was moved to the present
qunrters of. the Press, and then to
i the place it is housed in now.
L. H. Johnston’s office receives
1 more mail than any other office on
the campus. Each hall and office
; of importance ‘has an individual

Recognition Won
By Institute of
Pacific Relations
__
Hagen, Secretary of Group,
Visits Campus on
Way to Geneva
The importance of the Institute
of Pacific Relations, a group com
posed of many of the leading men
of tlie United States, Canada, Chi
na, Japan, Australia, Mew Zealand,
and other commonwealths, is now
recognized throughout the world,
declared .1. Merle Davis, executive
secret«irv of t ii e organization,
wlio stopped off here Thursday en
route to Geneva, where he will
study the work of the League of
Motions. Mr. Davis spent part of
the day with Dr. Arnold Bennett
Hall, president of the University of
Oregon, conferring on matters in
connection with the Institute. Dr.
Hall is' a member of the group, j
and took a prominent part at the
session held in Honolulu in July.
Mr. Davis left Honolulu about a
month ago, and sinee then lias been
traveling in the United States.
Members of the Institute all over
the country have been invited to
give addresses and lectures on the
work done by the organization, and
public interest in problems of the
Pacific has become more noticeable,
the executive secretary said.
At Geneva Mr. Davis will par
ticularly study the La Ivor organiza
tion of the League of Nations. This
was represented at the Institute ses
sion by William Caldwell, an inter
national authority on labor prob
lems. This problem in many Pa
cific countries is one that is oc
cupying the attention of”" experts
I everywhere, it is pointed out. This
1 is particularly true in Japan, where
the overproduction of recent years
has caused great , misery through
unemployment.
The next session of the Institute,
which will be in IDL't), will probably
bo held in Japan, says Mr. Davis.
This is expected to be the most im
portant conference ever held on the
Pacific.
Mr. Davis was greeted on the
campus by Mr. and Mrs. George H.

About Lucky Strike Cigarettes Because

!
WHAT is the quality that Giacomo
Rimini, Margaret D Alvarez, Cesare
Formichi, Armand Tokatyan, Emma
Trentini, William Faversham, Florence
Reed, Paul Whiteman, and other famous
singers, actors, broadcasters and public
speakers have found that makes LUCKY
STRIKES delightful and of no possible
injury to their voices?
For the answer we turned to medical
•
men and asked them this question:
Do you think from your experience with L, TJCKY
STRIKE cigarettes that they are less irritating
to sensitive or tender throats than other cigarettes,
whatever the reason?
11,105^ doctors answered this question
“YES.” — —
Consider what these figures mean; consider that
they represent the opinion and experience of doctors,
those whose business it is to know,
Paul Whiteman,
Noted
Orchestra Leader,
. writes:
“It was but recently, when I
started to act as master of cere*
monies with my band at the
Paramount Theatre, that I real
ized how vital perfect voice
condition was to a performer.
I have always been a consistent
smoker and, fortunately, Lucky
Strikes were my favorite brand.
1 like their toasted flavor and,
best of all, I can smoke as often
as I like, without fear of irri
tating my voice, which is becom
