Cambridge Men
To Meet Oregon
In Debate Soon
Team lo Be Selected
From University
At Random
Women, Press, Give Field
For Arguments
On December 5 two University of
Oregon debaters will meet Cam-,
bridge University, of England, in
Eugene, in the third international
meet in the history of the Univer
sity on a question which is yet to
be selected. There will bo four
problems, proposed by the visiting
team, from which the selection will
be made.
Oregon Men Not Yet Selected
Mr. M. A. 15. King-Hamilton, Mr.
Herbert Lionel Elvin and Mr. Hugh
Mackintosh Foot will compose the
Cambridge team. The Oregon men
have not yet been selected. Coach
Horner explained that, “This debate
being earlier than the regular sched
ule, I will not have the tryouts but
will pick two men at random from
the campus.” He further explained
that ho was not adverse to having
the tryouts if there were enough
interested to use tliait (particular
system. The regular varsity tryouts
will not be held until about Novem
ber 10 lo 17. Lack of a question
makes it difficult to select the
squad by the new method.
The only two-foreign teams to
debate at the University were Ox
ford University and last year the
University of Sydney, Australia,
met Oregon debaters in Eugene.
Topics Chosen
Four questions were submitted by
the Cambridge men on which they
■would debate, many phases of which
they are especially prepared to dis
cuss. The questions are: “Resolved,
That in the opinion of this House
compulsory military training should
form part of the education in all'
schools and universities.” (CanH
bridge against.) “Resolved, That
this irouse thinks that the ethics of
flic business world are incompatible
with sound morality.” (Cambridge
for.) “Resolved, That the power
r>f the press lias increased, is in
creasing and* ongljt to bp dimin
ished.” (Cambridge for.) “Re
vived, That, this House disapproves
if Woman.” (To be treated lightly.)
'Cambridge for or split.)
Invaders Prominent •
Mr. King-Hamilton is character
sed ns a Conservative by the In
stitute of International Education
of New York. Tlie institute fur
Ither said, “lie is remembered in tlie
Union for bis support of a resolu
tion disapproving of woman, though
in this as in a number of his
speeches, he has preferred levity to
•seriousness.” He was elected presi
dent of the University Law Society
in 392-4-, and has been a student of
1lie Middle Temple since 192.1. Upon
his return from America he expects
to be called to the bar.
Mr. Elvin secured first class
honors in the history school and is
now reading English literature.
Upon his return from the United
.States he will take the presidential
chair of this school. He is a So
cialist, a supporter of the Labor
party and for the coming year is
chairman of the University Labor
club.
Mr. Poot has a life membership
in the Union society, is now presi
dent of the Cambridge University
Liberal club, and takes active part
in the Liberal interests in various
parts of the country.
All three men have a long stand
ing record in athletic work in such
things as fencing, football, hockey,
cricket and racing. Their debating
ability is backed by a great deal
of actual experience and wide ob
servation.
The subject, which will be taken
from such vital problems as the
press, the disapproval of women, the
ethics of the business world, and
compulsory military training, will
bo chosen as soon as possible and
a team selected in time for ample
preparation before the meet.

There seems to be an eleventh
hour rise in interest over the ap
proaching tussle in the South. Stu
dents are talking football every
where. What has caused this quick
mod feeling? The answer seems to
be self-evident.

pus! Tt Is the now rebirth or re
juvenated mystic something called
“Oregon Spirit” that is permeating
Ihe ozone. Tlie student body -was
down at the tracks by Villard yes
terday noon and gave Oregon ’?
fighting Webfoots a rousing send
off on their journey to the clime of
the redshirted Cardinals. The var
sity is conceded almost no chance
for victory, but the dope venders
and betting is confined to the num
ber of touchdowns “Pop” Warner’s
aggregation will score over the
Lemon-Yellow team from Oregon.
But the Webfoots are primed to
set the world afire. Many moons
have passed siivig they have drug
in a slice of conference bacon and
they aren’t taking this condition
of affairs meekly. They are not
trekking to J’alo Alto to hold the
Stanford eleven to “as low a score
ns possible”; they are going for
victory! In the words of Captain
Beryl JTodgen, when an admirer
asked him just before the train
pulled out if they thought cthey
“might” win the game, lie replied
in a determined voice, “We’re
OOTNG to do it!”

! Scholarly Dog Joins
English Faculty Staff
The latest addition to the English
department has romp in the person
of a small black and white dog.
This canine boasts of a very su
perior intelligence, in spite of the
fact that, as the two black crows
would say, his parents were un
doubtedly a bit “careless.”
The newcomer regards all co-eds
suspiciously, for he heard one of
them remark once that he would
make a wonderful leopard skin coat
if only his hair had been tan to 'go
with his black spots.
Other plumbers of the department
are not ns kind and sociable to the
new instructor as they might be, for
he was seen out on the steps of Vil
iard all by himself. No doubt, how
ever, but he was soliliquizing (as
all good professors do) and think
ing about his Bacon. No, it wasn’t
Sir Francis—it was just plain pig.
