Rook Gridders Are Confident For Frosh Tilt Aggie Yearlings Are Still Undefeated This Season OEEGON STATE COLLEGE, Cor vallis, Nov. 10.—(Special to the Emerald).—In the annual “little” game between U. of O. and O. S. C. the Oregon State rooks will be hosts to the Oregon frosli on Bell field, Corvallis, Saturday afternoon. The game has been an annual classic for several years and this season the rooks are pointing to this game. Coach “Dick” Newman will put the husky, speedy squad into the game with the hopes of coming out on the long end of the score. The grid classic has been played for the last several seasons with both teams evenly matched and the scores always in doubt until the final whistle. Last year the rooks were defeated by a 14 to 0 score, but Saturday they expect to come out on the long end. The rooks have played few games this season, but they have had the Oregon game in their mind all season. Books Unbeaten In the three games played by the rooks this year their goal line has not been crossed nor has there been any points scored against them.j They showed their strength last Saturday when they defeated Colum bia university gridmen with a 33 to 0 score. At no time during the game was their goal in danger of being crossed by the cliff dwellers. Earlier in the season Columbia met. defeat at the hands of the Oregon frosh by a score of 22 to 0. The rooks have been practicing hard this week and will have jinc or two scrimmages before Saturday. Coach Newman has been giving every man a chance in scrimmage and the entire squad has been fight ing hard for regular berths. By Saturday every man will be ready to get in the game and help hand the Webfoo.t youngsters defeat for their last year’s victory. The entire rook squad will be in the pink of physical condition except for one or two minor injuries. Kerr Is Star Coach Newman has some out standing high school stars on the s(|uad who will enter Saturday’s game with plenty of experience. Henry Hughes, Hawaiian barefoot punter, is one of the outstanding fullbacks on the squad. He is a good punter, passer and open field runner and is expected to play an important part in Saturday’s game. “Chief” Thompson, former Che mawa fullback star, who is also a good punter and one of the best line plungers on the squad, will likely get in the game. Howard Kerr, for mer halfback star of Commerce high of Portland, who played a good game against Columbia last Satur day, will likely start the game at left half. He lias shown up well in the games this season and has been one of Coach Newman’s mainstays in the backfield. The weight of the entire rook squad is 8081 pounds or slightly over !

They are ready, in fighting trim, and today will fight their hardest. Students, you do not have to ask them to fight. It is born into them. It is the Oregon Spirit. They have it. And they will lead the other, less experienced men, into that game today and make them fight. Maybe not make them fight—because they, too, are imbued with the spirit—but they will help them keep fighting when that tired feeling creeps forth. The last few minutes of a torrid horrida bella is the greatest strain. When a player has put his all into the game and then has to pull from his reserve strength—playing on nothing but nerve, but playing—it is hard, it hurts. But they will do ' it. They will come through like Oregon men. When .that game is over today, students, hesitate one minute. Think of what these four will be thinking. It will be their last game on Hay ward field. Their last game in Oregon’s uniform before home folk. Each will have done his duty. Given his all for Oregon. Carry through the, last strains of “Mighty Oregon” and let them hear the echo as they trek to McArthur court to change their attire. “Mighty Oregon” will be their swan song. Victory means much to this quar tet, they state, and they will do their best. Captain Hodgen, twice a member of a losing Webfoot team in Aggie games, has quietly asked each player to do his best. “Fight —as a team—for Oregon,” he asked. They promised, “We’ll fight.” Elizabethan Course Taught by K. T. Rowe A course in Elizabethan literature is being taught this year by Ken neth Rowe of the English depart ment. The purpose of the course, Mr. Rowe states, is to supply a knowledge of literature in the Eliza bethan age for those who will study Shakespeare and his contemporaries. The Misses Isabelle Stuart, Marie Bridges, Florence Bathgate and Margaret West, all of Portland, were guests at the Chi Omega house last week-end. World Authority On Earthquakes Will Speak Here Noted Geologist Comes Under Auspices of Condon Club Dr. Bailey Willis, one of the greatest living authorities on earth quakes, according to Warren G. Smith of the University geology de partment, author of textbooks on geology in use throughout the United States, president of the Seismologi cal Society of America, and now emeritus professor of geology at Stanford University, has been sched uled to speak here by the Condon club, Oregon chapter of the Geo logical and Mining Society of Ameri can Universities. The date has been tentatively set for November 22, it was announced. This is the first of a scries of lectures on subjects of scientific interest to be brought to the campus by the Condon club. The San Francisco earthquake vv'as predicted by Dr. Willis, who has studied in detail the faults along the Pacific coast, and has spent much time on the origin and effect of faulting. He has recently re turned from a trip around the world, gathering data on earthquakes. lie happened to be present at the Ar menian earthquake last year. One of the eminent geologists of the world, Dr. Willis has held posi tions of great importance. Beceiv ing an E.M. degree from the Colum bia School of Mines in 1878, a C.E. degree in 1879, and an honorary Ph.D. from the University of Berlin in 1910, he has been honored in many ways. Connected with the U. S. geologi cal survey since 1884, he was chief geologist from 1900 to 1906.

McClure, ’95, Seattle lawyer. “One of God’s noblemen,”— Charles E. Henderson, ’93, lawyer, Indianapolis. A word about the artist might be of interest also. Julian Lamar is known to Oregon as the artist who painted the portrait of Mrs. Murray Warner, and also the portraits of the four children of Dean Robbins, dean of the school business administra tion. He was in Oregon for about two weeks late in February and early in March, during which time he painted also the portrait of Dean Straub, a gift of the alumni to the University of Oregon. Mr. Lamar is 34 years old. He has already won recognition for his portraits and was admitted to the Academy of Fine Arts in 1924. He has painted among others, President John Grier Hibben, of Princeton University, and Major General Fred W. Sladen, of West Point Military Academy. Captain J. .T. McEwan, professor of physical education and football coach, is a personal friend of the ar tist, who was a cadet with him at West Point. The artist resigned from the army after he got his commission and went abroad to study. Assembly (Continued from page one) decided that four is made up of two and two.” •Caro of the health is important, the speaker said. Cultivation of the mind by some hard mental work daily was the fourth point Dr. Crane mentioned. In his opinion, “Repeitition is the mother of learning.” “Did you ever walk through a jewelry store or a department store and think how many of the things ! there you wouldn’t want to have?” asked the speaker. Everybody can be happy if he will make up his mind to be. Happiness is the rela tion between what we liaA'e and what we think we ought to have. If you are getting $2000 a year and you want more, either you’ll have to make more money or stop wanting. You will arrive at the same place either way. The sensible way is to not want a thing.” Dr. Crane said that the sixth thing he would do would be to get married, and that although he wouldn’t look for a perfect wife, still she must have health, common sense, and cheerfulness, for in his opinion, “just plain, everyday cheer is worth a million.” Saving money would be the seventh consideration, he believed, adding that although it’s hard to | do, anyone can live on nine-tenths of what he does live on, even if he has to sleep in the park to do its The eighth item in Dr. Crane’s list was personal appearance. He stressed cleanliness and neatness as well as the ability to be on hand so that people wouldn’t have to wait for him, the cultivation of a pleas ing voice, and the art of conversing with anyone. To be thoroughbred was the ninth point, and the last was to make some arrangements with one’s own conscience, so that one would be able to face the world foresquare, and be prepared for whatever was to come. After Dr. Crane’s speech, John Straub, dean emeritus of men, who presided, turned the assembly over to Bob Warner, yell king, who led the student body in the new football song, “March On, Old Oregon,” Welcome Grads 232£2S NEW SHOW TODAY ZANE GREY’S New Novel “NEVADA” A stirring tale of Ro mance and Adventure ’Neath Western Skies— Armistice Program 11 A.
