Officials Face Difficult
Task in Picking Teams
To Play at Pasadena
(By United Press)
PASADENA, Nov. 15.—The cur
tain that will ring down on the
regular football season within a few
short weeks brings to the Tourna
ment of Roses association its year
ly problem.
Logically, financially and tradi
tionally just who should meet who
in the greatest of the post season
games—the annual New Year’s day
East-West contest.
While definitely stating that no
decision has been made nor any in
vitations offered, Les Henry, who
does the guessing for the Tourna
ment of Roses association, tonight
gave the United Press to understand
that two great eastern and one great
southern eleven are under considera
tion by virtue of their records.
On the west coast, Les Henry
waits only for the Southern Califor
nia-Washington contest. Stanford,
he indicated, has only an outside
chance. Southern California at
present holds inside track. In the
east the University of Pittsburgh,
regarded here as ono of the strong
est of the teams in that section, has
a slight edge over Washington and
Jefferson and the University of
Georgia.
Oregon Griders
Begin Working
For Husky Tilt
Last Conference Game
Is With Washington
In Seattle
* -
The Webfooters held the first
workout last night since the Home
coming defeat at the hands of the
Beavers. Considering the ferocity
of the contest, the Oregon team was
fortunate to come off the field with
no other injuries other than the us
ual stiff and bruised muscles.
Coach John J. McEwan is now
preparing his gridsters for the an
nual game with the Washington
Huskies to be played in Seattle at
Thanksgiving. But one of the many
things that tire Webfoots were de
termined to accomplish against the
Aggies was realized last Friday,
that being the first score in a con-!
ference game this season. The Hus- ]
kies are conceded a wide margin
over the Webfooters, but past per-1
formances both here and in Seattle
prove that the Oregon team is never
a set-up for the Huskies.
Last night’s practice was pri
marily to limber up the team after
a three day lay-off since the O. S.,
C. tilt. The session was brief and
consisted chiefly of “touch” foot
ball. No postmortem -has been
deemed necessary to air the faults
exposed by the Beavers. Without
exception the Oregonians displayed
better football than they had pre
viously during the entire season.
The-only conclusion for the decisive
defeat is the great superiority of
the Agricultural eleven.
Washington is still a contender
for the championship, and can af
ford to take no chances with the
Oregon team when they meet next
week. The Webfooters have been
noted for their strong finish at the
end of the season, but this year
Huskies will attempt to demonstrate
the ’fallacy of this assertion.

here tomorrow.
Shaver was understood to be
aroused over agitation among some
members of the democratic national
committee for abrogation of the rule
requiring a two-thirds majority in
national conventions for the nomina
tion of a presidential candidate. '
There is a movement to have the
national committee adopt a resolu
tion at its meeting here January 12,
recommending majority rule.
Deeply involved in the situation
is the candidacy of Governor A1
Smith of New York. It is generally
agreed among authorities that Smith
might get a majority of the next
convention but would have a hard
time getting two-thirds."'

Gridgraph Will

Varsity Football Men Are
Invited as Guests
At Showing
The Order of the “O” will spon
ser the final gridgraph showing of
the season this Saturday at Mc
Arthur court when it flashes the
play-by-play report of the big
southern football classic between
California and Stanford at Palo
Alto.
It is the big game of the West
this week-end and is expected to be
a close, hard fought contest. Stan
ford beat Washington by a one
touchdown margin. The extra
touchdown was alleged by sports
writers to be due to breaks and not
because of a superior Cardinal foot
ball machine. „ ,
Washington beat California last
Saturday by one lone score. Cali
fornia scored on Washington but it
was not counted because of an off
side penalty. The game ended with
the Golden Bears 'on the Husky one
inch line. Thus indications point to
t7ie two southern teams being evenly
matched. Plans are being made for
95,000 people to attend the game in
the Palo Alto stadium.

Dr. Corneille Heymans
To Speak on Campus
After Thanksgiving
The day before Thanksgiving, Dr.
Corneille Heymans, noted Belgian
scientist, will arrive at the Univer
sity of Oregon to spend the vaca
tion with Dr. A. R. Moore of the
zoology department.
Tuesday of the week following,
Dr. Heymans will deliver in English
his celebrated lecture, ““Thermore
gulation and Metabolism in Mam
mals,” illustrating his subject with
slides; and Wednesday, at a meet
ing of the Lane County Medical as
sociation, he will repeat .the lecture.
Eugene is especially favored to have
Dr. Heymans as a guest, as Portland
and San Francisco are the only other
towns on the Pacific coast where
the scientist will deliver his ad
dress.
Dr. Heymans arrived in the
United States three months ago
from Belgium, where his name
holds a very important place on the
faculty roll of the University of
Ghent. He was sent to the United
States on a research scholarship,
formed out of the surplus of the
Belgian relief fund, raised during
the war by Herbert Hoover. In the
United States, he has been studying
at Cleveland, Ohio, and continuing
his research work at the IVestem
Reserve University. At present,
however, he is on his way west,
and left Madison, Wisconsin, yester
day.
The only time the scientist will
depart from English during his lec
tures on the campus is Monday eve
ning, November 28, when he will ad
dress the French club at a special
“soiree” given in his honor at the
Tri-Delt house.
